At initialisation time, the client 12 * supplies an element lifetime in milliseconds and a group count, as well as a 13 * function pointer to call when deleting elements. A data structure for 14 * queueing up work in the form of timed callbacks is also included. 15 * 16 * The group count controls how many lists are created, and thereby how finely 17 * the elements are grouped in time. When reaping occurs, all the elements in 18 * all the lists whose time has expired are deleted. 19 * 20 * To give an example of how this works in practice, consider a client that 21 * initialises an MRU Cache with a lifetime of ten seconds and a group count of 22 * five. Five internal lists will be created, each representing a two second 23 * period in time. When the first element is added, time zero for the data 24 * structure is initialised to the current time. 25 * 26 * All the elements added in the first two seconds are appended to the first 27 * list. Elements added in the third second go into the second list, and so on. 28 * If an element is accessed at any point, it is removed from its list and 29 * inserted at the head of the current most-recently-used list. 30 * 31 * The reaper function will have nothing to do until at least twelve seconds 32 * have elapsed since the first element was added. The reason for this is that 33 * if it were called at t=11s, there could be elements in the first list that 34 * have only been inactive for nine seconds, so it still does nothing. If it is 35 * called anywhere between t=12 and t=14 seconds, it will delete all the 36 * elements that remain in the first list. It's therefore possible for elements 37 * to remain in the data store even after they've been inactive for up to 38 * (t + t/g) seconds, where t is the inactive element lifetime and g is the 39 * number of groups. 40 * 41 * The above example assumes that the reaper function gets called at least once 42 * every (t/g) seconds. If it is called less frequently, unused elements will 43 * accumulate in the reap list until the reaper function is eventually called. 44 * The current implementation uses work queue callbacks to carefully time the 45 * reaper function calls, so this should happen rarely, if at all. 46 * 47 * From a design perspective, the primary reason for the choice of a list array 48 * representing discrete time intervals is that it's only practical to reap 49 * expired elements in groups of some appreciable size. This automatically 50 * introduces a granularity to element lifetimes, so there's no point storing an 51 * individual timeout with each element that specifies a more precise reap time. 52 * The bonus is a saving of sizeof(long) bytes of memory per element stored. 53 * 54 * The elements could have been stored in just one list, but an array of 55 * counters or pointers would need to be maintained to allow them to be divided 56 * up into discrete time groups. More critically, the process of touching or 57 * removing an element would involve walking large portions of the entire list, 58 * which would have a detrimental effect on performance. The additional memory 59 * requirement for the array of list heads is minimal. 60 * 61 * When an element is touched or deleted, it needs to be removed from its 62 * current list. Doubly linked lists are used to make the list maintenance 63 * portion of these operations O(1). Since reaper timing can be imprecise, 64 * inserts and lookups can occur when there are no free lists available. When 65 * this happens, all the elements on the LRU list need to be migrated to the end 66 * of the reap list. To keep the list maintenance portion of these operations 67 * O(1) also, list tails need to be accessible without walking the entire list. 68 * This is the reason why doubly linked list heads are used. 69 */ 70 71/* 72 * An MRU Cache is a dynamic data structure that stores its elements in a way 73 * that allows efficient lookups, but also groups them into discrete time 74 * intervals based on insertion time. This allows elements to be efficiently 75 * and automatically reaped after a fixed period of inactivity. 76 * 77 * When a client data pointer is stored in the MRU Cache it needs to be added to 78 * both the data store and to one of the lists. It must also be possible to 79 * access each of these entries via the other, i.e. to: 80 * 81 * a) Walk a list, removing the corresponding data store entry for each item. 82 * b) Look up a data store entry, then access its list entry directly. 83 * 84 * To achieve both of these goals, each entry must contain both a list entry and 85 * a key, in addition to the user's data pointer. Note that it's not a good 86 * idea to have the client embed one of these structures at the top of their own 87 * data structure, because inserting the same item more than once would most 88 * likely result in a loop in one of the lists. That's a sure-fire recipe for 89 * an infinite loop in the code. 90 */ 91struct xfs_mru_cache { 92 struct radix_tree_root store; /* Core storage data structure. */ 93 struct list_head *lists; /* Array of lists, one per grp. */ 94 struct list_head reap_list; /* Elements overdue for reaping. */ 95 spinlock_t lock; /* Lock to protect this struct. */ 96 unsigned int grp_count; /* Number of discrete groups. */ 97 unsigned int grp_time; /* Time period spanned by grps. */ 98 unsigned int lru_grp; /* Group containing time zero. */ 99 unsigned long time_zero; /* Time first element was added. */ 100 xfs_mru_cache_free_func_t free_func; /* Function pointer for freeing. */ 101 struct delayed_work work; /* Workqueue data for reaping. */ 102 unsigned int queued; /* work has been queued */ 103 void *data; 104}; 105 106static struct workqueue_struct *xfs_mru_reap_wq; 107 108/* 109 * When inserting, destroying or reaping, it's first necessary to update the 110 * lists relative to a particular time.
