redis精讲系列介绍七-过期策略

这一篇不再是数据结构介绍了,大致的数据结构基本都介绍了,这一篇主要是查漏补缺,或者说讲一些重要且基本的概念,也可能是经常被忽略的,很多讲 redis 的系列文章可能都会忽略,学习 redis 的时候也会,因为觉得源码学习就是讲主要的数据结构和“算法”学习了就好了。redis 的主要应用就是拿来作为高性能的缓存,那么缓存一般有些啥需要注意的,首先是访问速度,如果取得跟数据库一样快,那就没什么存在的意义,第二个是缓存的字面意思,我只是为了让数据读取快一些,通常大部分的场景这个是需要更新过期的,这里就把我要讲的第一点引出来了(真累,

redis 过期策略

redis 是如何过期缓存的,可以猜测下,最无脑的就是每个设置了过期时间的 key 都设个定时器,过期了就删除,这种显然消耗太大,清理地最及时,还有的就是 redis 正在采用的懒汉清理策略和定期清理懒汉策略就是在使用的时候去检查缓存是否过期,比如 get 操作时,先判断下这个 key 是否已经过期了,如果过期了就删掉,并且返回空,如果没过期则正常返回主要代码是


/* This function is called when we are going to perform some operation * in a given key, but such key may be already logically expired even if * it still exists in the database. The main way this function is called * is via lookupKey*() family of functions. * * The behavior of the function depends on the replication role of the * instance, because slave instances do not expire keys, they wait * for DELs from the master for consistency matters. However even * slaves will try to have a coherent return value for the function, * so that read commands executed in the slave side will be able to * behave like if the key is expired even if still present (because the * master has yet to propagate the DEL). * * In masters as a side effect of finding a key which is expired, such * key will be evicted from the database. Also this may trigger the * propagation of a DEL/UNLINK command in AOF / replication stream. * * The return value of the function is 0 if the key is still valid, * otherwise the function returns 1 if the key is expired. */int expireIfNeeded(redisDb *db, robj *key) {    if (!keyIsExpired(db,key)) return 0;
/* If we are running in the context of a slave, instead of * evicting the expired key from the database, we return ASAP: * the slave key expiration is controlled by the master that will * send us synthesized DEL operations for expired keys. * * Still we try to return the right information to the caller, * that is, 0 if we think the key should be still valid, 1 if * we think the key is expired at this time. */ if (server.masterhost != NULL) return 1;
/* Delete the key */ server.stat_expiredkeys++; propagateExpire(db,key,server.lazyfree_lazy_expire); notifyKeyspaceEvent(NOTIFY_EXPIRED, "expired",key,db->id); return server.lazyfree_lazy_expire ? dbAsyncDelete(db,key) : dbSyncDelete(db,key);}
/* Check if the key is expired. */int keyIsExpired(redisDb *db, robj *key) { mstime_t when = getExpire(db,key); mstime_t now;
if (when < 0) return 0; /* No expire for this key */
/* Don't expire anything while loading. It will be done later. */ if (server.loading) return 0;
/* If we are in the context of a Lua script, we pretend that time is * blocked to when the Lua script started. This way a key can expire * only the first time it is accessed and not in the middle of the * script execution, making propagation to slaves / AOF consistent. * See issue #1525 on Github for more information. */ if (server.lua_caller) { now = server.lua_time_start; } /* If we are in the middle of a command execution, we still want to use * a reference time that does not change: in that case we just use the * cached time, that we update before each call in the call() function. * This way we avoid that commands such as RPOPLPUSH or similar, that * may re-open the same key multiple times, can invalidate an already * open object in a next call, if the next call will see the key expired, * while the first did not. */ else if (server.fixed_time_expire > 0) { now = server.mstime; } /* For the other cases, we want to use the most fresh time we have. */ else { now = mstime(); }
/* The key expired if the current (virtual or real) time is greater * than the expire time of the key. */ return now > when;}/* Return the expire time of the specified key, or -1 if no expire * is associated with this key (i.e. the key is non volatile) */long long getExpire(redisDb *db, robj *key) { dictEntry *de;
/* No expire? return ASAP */ if (dictSize(db->expires) == 0 || (de = dictFind(db->expires,key->ptr)) == NULL) return -1;
/* The entry was found in the expire dict, this means it should also * be present in the main dict (safety check). */ serverAssertWithInfo(NULL,key,dictFind(db->dict,key->ptr) != NULL); return dictGetSignedIntegerVal(de);}

这里有几点要注意的,第一是当惰性删除时会根据 lazyfree_lazy_expire 这个参数去判断是执行同步删除还是异步删除,另外一点是对于 slave,是不需要执行的,因为会在 master 过期时向 slave 发送 del 指令。光采用这个策略会有什么问题呢,假如一些 key 一直未被访问,那这些 key 就不会过期了,导致一直被占用着内存,所以 redis 采取了懒汉式过期加定期过期策略,定期策略是怎么执行的呢

The algorithm used is adaptive and * will use few CPU cycles if there are few expiring keys, otherwise * it will get more aggressive to avoid that too much memory is used by * keys that can be removed from the keyspace. * * Every expire cycle tests multiple databases: the next call will start * again from the next db, with the exception of exists for time limit: in that * case we restart again from the last database we were processing. Anyway * no more than CRON_DBS_PER_CALL databases are tested at every iteration. * * The function can perform more or less work, depending on the "type" * argument. It can execute a "fast cycle" or a "slow cycle". The slow * cycle is the main way we collect expired cycles: this happens with * the "server.hz" frequency (usually 10 hertz). * * However the slow cycle can exit for timeout, since it used too much time. * For this reason the function is also invoked to perform a fast cycle * at every event loop cycle, in the beforeSleep() function. The fast cycle * will try to perform less work, but will do it much more often. * * The following are the details of the two expire cycles and their stop * conditions: * * If type is ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_FAST the function will try to run a * "fast" expire cycle that takes no longer than EXPIRE_FAST_CYCLE_DURATION * microseconds, and is not repeated again before the same amount of time. * The cycle will also refuse to run at all if the latest slow cycle did not * terminate because of a time limit condition. * * If type is ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_SLOW, that normal expire cycle is * executed, where the time limit is a percentage of the REDIS_HZ period * as specified by the ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_SLOW_TIME_PERC define. In the * fast cycle, the check of every database is interrupted once the number * of already expired keys in the database is estimated to be lower than * a given percentage, in order to avoid doing too much work to gain too * little memory. * * The configured expire "effort" will modify the baseline parameters in * order to do more work in both the fast and slow expire cycles. */

执行定期清除分成两种类型,快和慢,分别由beforeSleepdatabasesCron调用,快版有两个限制,一个是执行时长由 ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_FAST_DURATION 限制,另一个是执行间隔是 2 倍的 ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_FAST_DURATION,另外这还可以由配置的 server.active_expire_effort 参数来控制,默认是 1,最大是 10


onfig_cycle_fast_duration = ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_FAST_DURATION +                                 ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_FAST_DURATION/4*effort
复制代码


然后会从一定数量的 db 中找出一定数量的带过期时间的 key(保存在 expires 中),这里的数量是由


config_keys_per_loop = ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_KEYS_PER_LOOP +                           ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_KEYS_PER_LOOP/4*effort
复制代码


控制,慢速的执行时长是


config_cycle_slow_time_perc = ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_SLOW_TIME_PERC +                                  2*efforttimelimit = config_cycle_slow_time_perc*1000000/server.hz/100;
复制代码


这里还有一个额外的退出条件,如果当前数据库的抽样结果已经达到我们所允许的过期 key 百分比,则下次不再处理当前 db,继续处理下个 db
