2.数据结构定义
先来学习一下nginx内存池的几个主要数据结构:
ngx_pool_data_t(内存池数据块结构)
ngx_pool_s(内存池头部结构)
由ngx_pool_data_t和ngx_pool_t组成的nginx内存池结构如下图所示:
3.相关函数介绍
在分析内存池方法前,需要对几个主要的内存相关函数作一下介绍:
ngx_alloc:(只是对malloc进行了简单的封装)
1:void * 2: ngx_alloc(size_t size, ngx_log_t *log) 3: { 4: void *p; 5: 6: p = malloc(size); 7: if (p == NULL) { 8: ngx_log_error(NGX_LOG_EMERG, log, ngx_errno, 9: "malloc(%uz) failed", size); 10: } 11: 12: ngx_log_debug2(NGX_LOG_DEBUG_ALLOC, log, 0, "malloc: %p:%uz", p, size); 13: 14: return p; 15: }
ngx_calloc:(调用malloc并初始化为0)
1:void * 2: ngx_calloc(size_t size, ngx_log_t *log) 3: { 4: void *p; 5: 6: p = ngx_alloc(size, log); 7: 8: if (p) { 9: ngx_memzero(p, size); 10: } 11: 12: return p; 13: }
ngx_memzero:
1: #define ngx_memzero(buf, n) (void) memset(buf, 0, n)
ngx_free :
1: #define ngx_free free
ngx_memalign:
1:void * 2: ngx_memalign(size_t alignment, size_t size, ngx_log_t *log) 3: { 4: void *p; 5: int err; 6: 7: err = posix_memalign(&p, alignment, size); 8: 9: if (err) { 10: ngx_log_error(NGX_LOG_EMERG, log, err, 11: "posix_memalign(%uz, %uz) failed", alignment, size); 12: p = NULL; 13: } 14: 15: ngx_log_debug3(NGX_LOG_DEBUG_ALLOC, log, 0, 16: "posix_memalign: %p:%uz @%uz", p, size, alignment); 17: 18: return p; 19: }
这里alignment主要是针对部分unix平台需要动态的对齐,对POSIX 1003.1d提供的posix_memalign( )进行封装,在大多数情况下,编译器和C库透明地帮你处理对齐问题。nginx中通过宏NGX_HAVE_POSIX_MEMALIGN来控制;调用posix_memalign( )成功时会返回size字节的动态内存,并且这块内存的地址是alignment的倍数。参数alignment必须是2的幂,还是void指针的大小的倍数。返回的内存块的地址放在了memptr里面,函数返回值是0.
4.内存池基本操作
创建内存池 | ngx_pool_t * ngx_create_pool(size_t size, ngx_log_t *log); |
销毁内存池 | void ngx_destroy_pool(ngx_pool_t *pool); |
重置内存池 | void ngx_reset_pool(ngx_pool_t *pool); |
内存申请(对齐) | void * ngx_palloc(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size); |
内存申请(不对齐) | void * ngx_pnalloc(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size); |
内存清除 | ngx_int_t ngx_pfree(ngx_pool_t *pool, void *p); |
4.1 创建内存池ngx_create_pool
ngx_create_pool用于创建一个内存池,我们创建时,传入我们的需要的初始大小:
1: ngx_pool_t * 2: ngx_create_pool(size_t size, ngx_log_t *log) 3: { 4: ngx_pool_t *p; 5: 6: //以16(NGX_POOL_ALIGNMENT)字节对齐分配size内存 7: p = ngx_memalign(NGX_POOL_ALIGNMENT, size, log); 8: if (p == NULL) { 9: return NULL; 10: } 11: 12: //初始状态:last指向ngx_pool_t结构体之后数据取起始位置 13: p->d.last = (u_char *) p + sizeof(ngx_pool_t); 14: //end指向分配的整个size大小的内存的末尾 15: p->d.end = (u_char *) p + size; 16: 17: p->d.next = NULL; 18: p->d.failed = 0; 19: 20: size = size - sizeof(ngx_pool_t); 21: //#define NGX_MAX_ALLOC_FROM_POOL (ngx_pagesize - 1),内存池最大不超过4095,x86中页的大小为4K 22: p->max = (size 23: 24: p->current = p; 25: p->chain = NULL; 26: p->large = NULL; 27: p->cleanup = NULL; 28: p->log = log; 29: 30: return p; 31: }
nginx对内存的管理分为大内存与小内存,当某一个申请的内存大于某一个值时,就需要从大内存中分配空间,否则从小内存中分配空间。
nginx中的内存池是在创建的时候就设定好了大小,在以后分配小块内存的时候,如果内存不够,则是重新创建一块内存串到内存池中,而不是将原有的内存池进行扩张。当要分配大块内存是,则是在内存池外面再分配空间进行管理的,称为大块内存池。
4.2 内存申请 ngx_palloc
1:void * 2: ngx_palloc(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size) 3: { 4: u_char *m; 5: ngx_pool_t *p; 6: 7: //如果申请的内存大小小于内存池的max值 8: if (size max) { 9: 10: p = pool->current; 11: 12: do { 13: //对内存地址进行对齐处理 14: m = ngx_align_ptr(p->d.last, NGX_ALIGNMENT); 15: 16: //如果当前内存块够分配内存,则直接分配 17: if ((size_t) (p->d.end - m) >= size) 18: { 19: p->d.last = m + size; 20: 21: return m; 22: } 23: 24: //如果当前内存块有效容量不够分配,则移动到下一个内存块进行分配 25: p = p->d.next; 26: 27: } while (p); 28: 29: //当前所有内存块都没有空闲了,开辟一块新的内存,如下2详细解释 30: return ngx_palloc_block(pool, size); 31: } 32: 33: //分配大块内存 34: return ngx_palloc_large(pool, size); 35: }
需要说明的几点:
1、ngx_align_ptr,这是一个用来内存地址取整的宏,非常精巧,一句话就搞定了。作用不言而喻,取整可以降低CPU读取内存的次数,提高性能。因为这里并没有真正意义调用malloc等函数申请内存,而是移动指针标记而已,所以内存对齐的活,C编译器帮不了你了,得自己动手。
1: #define ngx_align_ptr(p, a) \ 2: (u_char *) (((uintptr_t) (p) + ((uintptr_t) a - 1)) & ~((uintptr_t) a - 1))
2、开辟一个新的内存块 ngx_palloc_block(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size)
这个函数是用来分配新的内存块,为pool内存池开辟一个新的内存块,并申请使用size大小的内存;
1:static void * 2: ngx_palloc_block(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size) 3: { 4: u_char *m; 5: size_t psize; 6: ngx_pool_t *p, *new; 7: 8: //计算内存池第一个内存块的大小 9: psize = (size_t) (pool->d.end - (u_char *) pool); 10: 11: //分配和第一个内存块同样大小的内存块 12: m = ngx_memalign(NGX_POOL_ALIGNMENT, psize, pool->log); 13: if (m == NULL) { 14: return NULL; 15: } 16: 17: new = (ngx_pool_t *) m; 18: 19: //设置新内存块的end 20: new->d.end = m + psize; 21: new->d.next = NULL; 22: new->d.failed = 0; 23: 24: //将指针m移动到d后面的一个位置,作为起始位置 25: m += sizeof(ngx_pool_data_t); 26: //对m指针按4字节对齐处理 27: m = ngx_align_ptr(m, NGX_ALIGNMENT); 28: //设置新内存块的last,即申请使用size大小的内存 29: new->d.last = m + size; 30: 31: //这里的循环用来找最后一个链表节点,这里failed用来控制循环的长度,如果分配失败次数达到5次,就忽略,不需要每次都从头找起 32: for (p = pool->current; p->d.next; p = p->d.next) { 33: if (p->d.failed++ > 4) { 34: pool->current = p->d.next; 35: } 36: } 37: 38: p->d.next = new; 39: 40: return m; 41: }
3、分配大块内存 ngx_palloc_large(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size)
在ngx_palloc中首先会判断申请的内存大小是否超过内存块的最大限值,如果超过,则直接调用ngx_palloc_large,进入大内存块的分配流程;
1:static void * 2: ngx_palloc_large(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size) 3: { 4: void *p; 5: ngx_uint_t n; 6: ngx_pool_large_t *large; 7: 8: // 直接在系统堆中分配一块大小为size的空间 9: p = ngx_alloc(size, pool->log); 10: if (p == NULL) { 11: return NULL; 12: } 13: 14: n = 0; 15: 16: // 查找到一个空的large区,如果有,则将刚才分配的空间交由它管理 17: for (large = pool->large; large; large = large->next) { 18: if (large->alloc == NULL) { 19: large->alloc = p; 20: return p; 21: } 22: //为了提高效率, 如果在三次内没有找到空的large结构体,则创建一个 23: if (n++ > 3) { 24: break; 25: } 26: } 27: 28: 29: large = ngx_palloc(pool, sizeof(ngx_pool_large_t)); 30: if (large == NULL) { 31: ngx_free(p); 32: return NULL; 33: } 34: 35: //将large链接到内存池 36: large->alloc = p; 37: large->next = pool->large; 38: pool->large = large; 39: 40: return p; 41: }
整个内存池分配如下图:
4.3 内存池重置 ngx_reset_pool
1:void 2: ngx_reset_pool(ngx_pool_t *pool) 3: { 4: ngx_pool_t *p; 5: ngx_pool_large_t *l; 6: 7: //释放大块内存 8: for (l = pool->large; l; l = l->next) { 9: if (l->alloc) { 10: ngx_free(l->alloc); 11: } 12: } 13: 14: // 重置所有小块内存区 15: for (p = pool; p; p = p->d.next) { 16: p->d.last = (u_char *) p + sizeof(ngx_pool_t); 17: p->d.failed = 0; 18: } 19: 20: pool->current = pool; 21: pool->chain = NULL; 22: pool->large = NULL; 23: }
