29 * This module uses a splay tree to implement a simple cache. The cache
30 * module adds a thin layer of functionality to the splay tree. In
31 * particular:
33 * - The tree (cache) may be limited in size by the number of
34 * entries permitted or the amount of memory used. When either
35 * limit is exceeded cache entries are removed until the cache
36 * conforms.
37 * - Some statistical information is kept so that an approximate
38 * "hit ratio" can be calculated.
39 * - There are several functions available that provide access to
40 * and management of cache size limits, hit ratio, and tree
41 * trimming.
43 * The splay tree is used because recently accessed items tend toward the
44 * top of the tree and less recently accessed items tend toward the bottom.
45 * This makes it easy to purge less recently used items should the cache
46 * exceed its limits.
48 * To use this module, you will need to supply a comparison function of
49 * type ubi_trCompFunc and a node-freeing function of type
50 * ubi_trKillNodeRtn. See ubi_BinTree.h for more information on
51 * these. (This is all basic ubiqx tree management stuff.)
53 * Notes:
55 * - Cache performance will start to suffer dramatically if the
56 * cache becomes large enough to force the OS to start swapping
57 * memory to disk. This is because the nodes of the underlying tree
58 * will be scattered across memory in an order that is completely
59 * unrelated to their traversal order. As more and more of the
60 * cache is placed into swap space, more and more swaps will be
61 * required for a simple traversal (...and then there's the splay
62 * operation).
64 * In one simple test under Linux, the load and dump of a cache of
65 * 400,000 entries took only 1min, 40sec of real time. The same
66 * test with 450,000 records took 2 *hours* and eight minutes.
68 * - In an effort to save memory, I considered using an unsigned
69 * short to save the per-entry entry size. I would have tucked this
70 * value into some unused space in the tree node structure. On
71 * 32-bit word aligned systems this would have saved an additional
72 * four bytes per entry. I may revisit this issue, but for now I've
73 * decided against it.
75 * Using an unsigned short would limit the size of an entry to 64K
76 * bytes. That's probably more than enough for most applications.
77 * The key word in that last sentence, however, is "probably". I
78 * really dislike imposing such limits on things.
80 * - Each entry keeps track of the amount of memory it used and the
81 * cache header keeps the total. This information is provided via
82 * the EntrySize parameter in ubi_cachePut(), so it is up to you to
83 * make sure that the numbers are accurate. (The numbers don't even
84 * have to represent bytes used.)
86 * As you consider this, note that the strdup() function--as an
87 * example--will call malloc(). The latter generally allocates a
88 * multiple of the system word size, which may be more than the
89 * number of bytes needed to store the string.

182 * Initialize a cache header structure.
184 * Input: CachePtr - A pointer to a ubi_cacheRoot structure that is

186 * CompFunc - A pointer to the function that will be called
187 * to compare two cache values. See the module
188 * comments, above, for more information.
189 * FreeFunc - A pointer to a function that will be called
190 * to free a cache entry. If you allocated
191 * the cache entry using malloc(), then this
192 * will likely be free(). If you are allocating
193 * cache entries from a free list, then this will
194 * likely be a function that returns memory to the
195 * free list, etc.
196 * MaxEntries - The maximum number of entries that will be
197 * allowed to exist in the cache. If this limit
198 * is exceeded, then existing entries will be
199 * removed from the cache. A value of zero
200 * indicates that there is no limit on the number
201 * of cache entries. See ubi_cachePut().
202 * MaxMemory - The maximum amount of memory, in bytes, to be
203 * allocated to the cache (excluding the cache
204 * header). If this is exceeded, existing entries
205 * in the cache will be removed until enough memory
206 * has been freed to meet the condition. See
207 * ubi_cachePut().

221 * of memory actually allocated. Keep this in mind when

287 * cache), since new nodes in a splay tree (which is what this
288 * module was designed to use) are moved to the top of the tree
289 * and the cache purge process removes nodes from the bottom of
290 * the tree.
291 * - The underlying splay tree is opened in OVERWRITE mode. If
292 * the input key matches an existing key, the existing entry will
293 * be politely removed from the tree and freed.
