30 <h3>Summary</h3>
32 <p><code>mod_plainmem</code> is a memory provider which
33 provides for creation and access to a plain memory segment
34 in which the datasets are organized in "slots." Although
35 it can be used directly, normally <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_slotmem.html">mod_slotmem</a></code>
36 is used as a front-end.
37 </p>
39 <p>If the memory needs to be shared between threads and
40 processes, a better provider would be
41 <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_sharedmem.html">mod_sharedmem</a></code>.
42 </p>
44 <p><code>mod_plainmem</code> provides the following
45 API functions:
46 </p>
48 <dl>
49 <dt>apr_status_t slotmem_do(ap_slotmem_t *s, ap_slotmem_callback_fn_t *func, void *data, apr_pool_t *pool)</dt>
50 <dd>call the callback on all worker slots</dd>
52 <dt>apr_status_t slotmem_create(ap_slotmem_t **new, const char *name, apr_size_t item_size, int item_num, apr_pool_t *pool)</dt>
53 <dd>create a new slotmem with each item size is item_size.</dd>
55 <dt>apr_status_t slotmem_attach(ap_slotmem_t **new, const char *name, apr_size_t *item_size, int *item_num, apr_pool_t *pool)</dt>
56 <dd>attach to an existing slotmem.</dd>
58 <dt>apr_status_t slotmem_mem(ap_slotmem_t *s, int item_id, void**mem)</dt>
59 <dd>get the memory associated with this worker slot.</dd>
