  20. /*
  21. * The MRU Cache data structure consists of a data store, an array of lists and
  22. * a lock to protect its internal state. At initialisation time, the client
  23. * supplies an element lifetime in milliseconds and a group count, as well as a
  24. * function pointer to call when deleting elements. A data structure for
  25. * queueing up work in the form of timed callbacks is also included.
  26. *
  27. * The group count controls how many lists are created, and thereby how finely
  28. * the elements are grouped in time. When reaping occurs, all the elements in
  29. * all the lists whose time has expired are deleted.
  30. *
  31. * To give an example of how this works in practice, consider a client that
  32. * initialises an MRU Cache with a lifetime of ten seconds and a group count of
  33. * five. Five internal lists will be created, each representing a two second
  34. * period in time. When the first element is added, time zero for the data
  35. * structure is initialised to the current time.
  36. *
  37. * All the elements added in the first two seconds are appended to the first
  38. * list. Elements added in the third second go into the second list, and so on.
  39. * If an element is accessed at any point, it is removed from its list and
  40. * inserted at the head of the current most-recently-used list.
  41. *
  42. * The reaper function will have nothing to do until at least twelve seconds
  43. * have elapsed since the first element was added. The reason for this is that
  44. * if it were called at t=11s, there could be elements in the first list that
  45. * have only been inactive for nine seconds, so it still does nothing. If it is
  46. * called anywhere between t=12 and t=14 seconds, it will delete all the
  47. * elements that remain in the first list. It's therefore possible for elements
  48. * to remain in the data store even after they've been inactive for up to
  49. * (t + t/g) seconds, where t is the inactive element lifetime and g is the
  50. * number of groups.
  51. *
  52. * The above example assumes that the reaper function gets called at least once
  53. * every (t/g) seconds. If it is called less frequently, unused elements will
  54. * accumulate in the reap list until the reaper function is eventually called.
  55. * The current implementation uses work queue callbacks to carefully time the
  56. * reaper function calls, so this should happen rarely, if at all.
  57. *
  58. * From a design perspective, the primary reason for the choice of a list array
  59. * representing discrete time intervals is that it's only practical to reap
  60. * expired elements in groups of some appreciable size. This automatically
  61. * introduces a granularity to element lifetimes, so there's no point storing an
  62. * individual timeout with each element that specifies a more precise reap time.
  63. * The bonus is a saving of sizeof(long) bytes of memory per element stored.
  64. *
  65. * The elements could have been stored in just one list, but an array of
  66. * counters or pointers would need to be maintained to allow them to be divided
  67. * up into discrete time groups. More critically, the process of touching or
  68. * removing an element would involve walking large portions of the entire list,
  69. * which would have a detrimental effect on performance. The additional memory
  70. * requirement for the array of list heads is minimal.
  71. *
  72. * When an element is touched or deleted, it needs to be removed from its
  73. * current list. Doubly linked lists are used to make the list maintenance
  74. * portion of these operations O(1). Since reaper timing can be imprecise,
  75. * inserts and lookups can occur when there are no free lists available. When
  76. * this happens, all the elements on the LRU list need to be migrated to the end
  77. * of the reap list. To keep the list maintenance portion of these operations
  78. * O(1) also, list tails need to be accessible without walking the entire list.
  79. * This is the reason why doubly linked list heads are used.
  80. */
  81. /*
  82. * An MRU Cache is a dynamic data structure that stores its elements in a way
  83. * that allows efficient lookups, but also groups them into discrete time
  84. * intervals based on insertion time. This allows elements to be efficiently
  85. * and automatically reaped after a fixed period of inactivity.
  86. *
  87. * When a client data pointer is stored in the MRU Cache it needs to be added to
  88. * both the data store and to one of the lists. It must also be possible to
  89. * access each of these entries via the other, i.e. to:
  90. *
  91. * a) Walk a list, removing the corresponding data store entry for each item.
  92. * b) Look up a data store entry, then access its list entry directly.
  93. *
  94. * To achieve both of these goals, each entry must contain both a list entry and
  95. * a key, in addition to the user's data pointer. Note that it's not a good
  96. * idea to have the client embed one of these structures at the top of their own
  97. * data structure, because inserting the same item more than once would most
  98. * likely result in a loop in one of the lists. That's a sure-fire recipe for
  99. * an infinite loop in the code.
