Typedefs

typedef pthread_mutex_t mdb_mutex_t [1]
typedef pthread_mutex_t * mdb_mutexref_t

Detailed Description

A bunch of macros to minimize the amount of platform-specific ifdefs needed throughout the rest of the code. When the features this library needs are similar enough to POSIX to be hidden in a one-or-two line replacement, this macro approach is used.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define MDB_DEVEL 0

Features under development

#define mdb_func_ ’<mdb_unknown>’

Wrapper around func , which is a C99 feature

#define MDB_USE_ROBUST 1

Some platforms define the EOWNERDEAD error code even though they don’t support Robust Mutexes. Compile with -DMDB_USE_ROBUST=0, or use some other mechanism like -DMDB_USE_POSIX_SEM instead of -DMDB_USE_POSIX_MUTEX. (Posix semaphores are not robust.)

#define Z ’z’

printf format modifier for size_t

#define MDB_PIDLOCK 1

For MDB_LOCK_FORMAT: True if readers take a pid lock in the lockfile

#define LOCK_MUTEX0(mutex) pthread_mutex_lock(mutex)

Lock the reader or writer mutex. Returns 0 or a code to give mdb_mutex_failed(), as in LOCK_MUTEX().

#define UNLOCK_MUTEX(mutex) pthread_mutex_unlock(mutex)

Unlock the reader or writer mutex.

#define mdb_mutex_consistent(mutex) pthread_mutex_consistent(mutex)

Mark mutex-protected data as repaired, after death of previous owner.

#define ErrCode() errno

Get the error code for the last failed system function.

#define HANDLE int

An abstraction for a file handle. On POSIX systems file handles are small integers. On Windows they’re opaque pointers.

#define INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE (-1)

A value for an invalid file handle. Mainly used to initialize file variables and signify that they are unused.

#define GET_PAGESIZE(x) ((x) = sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE))

Get the size of a memory page for the system. This is the basic size that the platform’s memory manager uses, and is fundamental to the use of memory-mapped files.

Typedef Documentation

typedef pthread_mutex_t mdb_mutex_t[1]

Shared mutex/semaphore as the original is stored.

Not for copies. Instead it can be assigned to an mdb_mutexref_t . When mdb_mutexref_t is a pointer and mdb_mutex_t is not, then it is array[size 1] so it can be assigned to the pointer.

typedef pthread_mutex_t* mdb_mutexref_t

Reference to an mdb_mutex_t
