Linux内核结构体--kfifo 环状缓冲区

标签：c++   linux   

1、前言

　　最近项目中用到一个环形缓冲区（ring buffer），代码是由linux内核的kfifo改过来的。缓冲区在文件系统中经常用到，通过缓冲区缓解cpu读写内存和读写磁盘的速度。例如一个进程A产生数据发给另外一个进程B，进程B需要对进程A传的数据进行处理并写入文件，如果B没有处理完，则A要延迟发送。为了保证进程A减少等待时间，可以在A和B之间采用一个缓冲区，A每次将数据存放在缓冲区中，B每次冲缓冲区中取。这是典型的生产者和消费者模型，缓冲区中数据满足FIFO特性，因此可以采用队列进行实现。Linux内核的kfifo正好是一个环形队列，可以用来当作环形缓冲区。生产者与消费者使用缓冲区如下图所示：

　　环形缓冲区的详细介绍及实现方法可以参考http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_buffer，介绍的非常详细，列举了实现环形队列的几种方法。环形队列的不便之处在于如何判断队列是空还是满。维基百科上给三种实现方法。

2、linux 内核kfifo

　　kfifo设计的非常巧妙，代码很精简，对于入队和出对处理的出人意料。首先看一下kfifo的数据结构：

struct kfifo {
    unsigned char *buffer;     /* the buffer holding the data */
    unsigned int size;         /* the size of the allocated buffer */
    unsigned int in;           /* data is added at offset (in % size) */
    unsigned int out;          /* data is extracted from off. (out % size) */
    spinlock_t *lock;          /* protects concurrent modifications */
};

//根据给定buffer创建一个kfifo
struct kfifo *kfifo_init(unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int size,
                gfp_t gfp_mask, spinlock_t *lock);
//给定size分配buffer和kfifo
struct kfifo *kfifo_alloc(unsigned int size, gfp_t gfp_mask,
                 spinlock_t *lock);
//释放kfifo空间
void kfifo_free(struct kfifo *fifo)
//向kfifo中添加数据
unsigned int kfifo_put(struct kfifo *fifo,
                const unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int len)
//从kfifo中取数据
unsigned int kfifo_put(struct kfifo *fifo,
                const unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int len)
//获取kfifo中有数据的buffer大小
unsigned int kfifo_len(struct kfifo *fifo)

struct kfifo *kfifo_init(unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int size,
             gfp_t gfp_mask, spinlock_t *lock)
{
    struct kfifo *fifo;
    /* size must be a power of 2 */
    BUG_ON(!is_power_of_2(size));
    fifo = kmalloc(sizeof(struct kfifo), gfp_mask);
    if (!fifo)
        return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
    fifo->buffer = buffer;
    fifo->size = size;
    fifo->in = fifo->out = 0;
    fifo->lock = lock;

    return fifo;
}
struct kfifo *kfifo_alloc(unsigned int size, gfp_t gfp_mask, spinlock_t *lock)
{
    unsigned char *buffer;
    struct kfifo *ret;
    if (!is_power_of_2(size)) {
        BUG_ON(size > 0x80000000);
        size = roundup_pow_of_two(size);
    }
    buffer = kmalloc(size, gfp_mask);
    if (!buffer)
        return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
    ret = kfifo_init(buffer, size, gfp_mask, lock);

    if (IS_ERR(ret))
        kfree(buffer);
    return ret;
}

      kfifo的巧妙之处在于in和out定义为无符号类型，在put和get时，in和out都是增加，当达到最大值时，产生溢出，使得从0开始，进行循环使用。put和get代码如下所示：

static inline unsigned int kfifo_put(struct kfifo *fifo,
                const unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int len)
{
    unsigned long flags;
    unsigned int ret;
    spin_lock_irqsave(fifo->lock, flags);
    ret = __kfifo_put(fifo, buffer, len);
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(fifo->lock, flags);
    return ret;
}

static inline unsigned int kfifo_get(struct kfifo *fifo,
                     unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int len)
{
    unsigned long flags;
    unsigned int ret;
    spin_lock_irqsave(fifo->lock, flags);
    ret = __kfifo_get(fifo, buffer, len);
        //当fifo->in == fifo->out时，buufer为空
    if (fifo->in == fifo->out)
        fifo->in = fifo->out = 0;
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(fifo->lock, flags);
    return ret;
}


unsigned int __kfifo_put(struct kfifo *fifo,
            const unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int len)
{
    unsigned int l;
       //buffer中空的长度
    len = min(len, fifo->size - fifo->in + fifo->out);
    /*
     * Ensure that we sample the fifo->out index -before- we
     * start putting bytes into the kfifo.
     */
    smp_mb();
    /* first put the data starting from fifo->in to buffer end */
    l = min(len, fifo->size - (fifo->in & (fifo->size - 1)));
    memcpy(fifo->buffer + (fifo->in & (fifo->size - 1)), buffer, l);
    /* then put the rest (if any) at the beginning of the buffer */
    memcpy(fifo->buffer, buffer + l, len - l);

    /*
     * Ensure that we add the bytes to the kfifo -before-
     * we update the fifo->in index.
     */
    smp_wmb();
    fifo->in += len;  //每次累加，到达最大值后溢出，自动转为0
    return len;
}

unsigned int __kfifo_get(struct kfifo *fifo,
             unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int len)
{
    unsigned int l;
        //有数据的缓冲区的长度
    len = min(len, fifo->in - fifo->out);
    /*
     * Ensure that we sample the fifo->in index -before- we
     * start removing bytes from the kfifo.
     */
    smp_rmb();
    /* first get the data from fifo->out until the end of the buffer */
    l = min(len, fifo->size - (fifo->out & (fifo->size - 1)));
    memcpy(buffer, fifo->buffer + (fifo->out & (fifo->size - 1)), l);
    /* then get the rest (if any) from the beginning of the buffer */
    memcpy(buffer + l, fifo->buffer, len - l);
    /*
     * Ensure that we remove the bytes from the kfifo -before-
     * we update the fifo->out index.
     */
    smp_mb();
    fifo->out += len; //每次累加，到达最大值后溢出，自动转为0
    return len;
}

（1）空的kfifo，

（2）put一个buffer后

（3）get一个buffer后

（4）当此时put的buffer长度超出in到末尾长度时，则将剩下的移到头部去

3、测试程序

len = min(len, fifo->size - fifo->in + fifo->out);
      在 len 和 (fifo->size - fifo->in + fifo->out) 之间取一个较小的值赋给len。注意，当 (fifo->in == fifo->out+fifo->size) 时，表示缓冲区已满，此时得到的较小值一定是0，后面实际写入的字节数也全为0。
      另一种边界情况是当 len 很大时（因为len是无符号的，负数对它来说也是一个很大的正数），这一句也能保证len取到一个较小的值，因为    fifo->in 总是大于等于 fifo->out ，所以后面的那个表达式 l = min(len, fifo->size - (fifo->in & (fifo->size - 1))); 的值不会超过fifo->size的大小。
      smp_mb();  smp_wmb(); 是加内存屏障，这里不是我们讨论的范围，你可以忽略它。
      l = min(len, fifo->size - (fifo->in & (fifo->size - 1)));    是把上一步决定的要写入的字节数len “切开”，这里又使用了一个技巧。注意：实际分配给 fifo->buffer 的字节数 fifo->size，必须是2的幂，否则这里就会出错。既然 fifo->size 是2的幂，那么 (fifo->size-1) 也就是一个后面几位全为1的数，也就能保证(fifo->in & (fifo->size - 1)) 总为不超过 (fifo->size - 1) 的那一部分，和 (fifo->in)% (fifo->size - 1) 的效果一样。
      这样后面的代码就不难理解了，它先向  fifo->in  到缓冲区末端这一块写数据，如果还没写完，在从缓冲区头开始写入剩下的，从而实现了循环缓冲。最后，把写指针后移 len 个字节，并返回len。
       从上面可以看出，fifo->in的值可以从0变化到超过fifo->size的数值，fifo->out也如此，但它们的差不会超过fifo->size。
