A working project for High-concurrency B-tree source code in C
-There are three major code sets in the btree source code:
+There are six files in the btree source code:
-btree2q.c Single Threaded/MultiProcess with latching supplied by advisory file locking. Works with network file systems.
-threads2h.c Multi-Threaded/Multi-Process with latching implemented with test & set locks in the btree pages.
+btree2s.c Single Threaded/MultiProcess version that removes keys all the way back to an original empty btree, placing removed nodes on a free list. Operates under either memory mapping or file I/O. Recommended btrees hosted on network file systems.
-The Foster set includes three types of latching:
+btree2t.c Single Threaded/MultiProcess version similar to btree2s except that fcntl locking has been replaced by test & set latches in the first few btree pages. Uses either memory mapping or file I/O.
-Fosterbtreee.c Multi-Threaded/Single Process with latches hosted by the buffer pool manager
-Fosterbtreef.c Multi-Threaded/Multi-Process with latches hosted by a latch manager using the first few pages of the btree.
-Fosterbtreeg.c Multi-Threaded/Multi-Process with latches implemented with test & set locks in the btree pages.
+btree2u.c Single Threaded/MultiProcess version that implements a traditional buffer pool manager in the first n pages of the btree file. The buffer pool accesses its pages with mmap. Evicted pages are written back to the btree file from the buffer pool pages with pwrite.
+
+threads2h.c Multi-Threaded/Multi-Process with latching implemented by a latch manager with pthreads/SRW latches in the first few btree pages. Recommended for Windows.
+
+threads2i.c Multi-Threaded/Multi-Process with latching implemented by a latch manager with test & set latches in the first few btree pages with thread yield system calls during contention.
+
+threads2j.c Multi-Threaded/Multi-Process with latching implemented by a latch manager with test & set locks in the first few btree pages with Linux futex system calls during contention. Recommended for linux.
Compilation is achieved on linux or Windows by:
or
-cl /D STANDALONE threads2h.c
+cl /Ox /D STANDALONE threads2h.c
