// VirtualRingBuffer implements a classic ring buffer (or circular buffer), with a couple of twists.
|
|
//
|
|
// * It allows reads and writes to happen in different threads, with no explicit locking,
|
|
// so readers and writers will never block. This is useful if either thread uses the
|
|
// time-constraint scheduling policy, since it is bad for such threads to block for
|
|
// indefinite amounts of time.
|
|
//
|
|
// * It uses a virtual memory trick to allow the client to read or write using just one
|
|
// operation, even if the data involved wraps around the end of the buffer. We allocate
|
|
// our buffer normally, and then place a VM region immediately after it in the address
|
|
// space which maps back to the "real" buffer. So reads and writes into both sections
|
|
// are transparently translated into the same physical memory.
|
|
// This makes the API much simpler to use, and saves us from doing some math to
|
|
// calculate the wraparound points.
|
|
// The tradeoff is that we use twice as much address space for the buffer than we would
|
|
// otherwise. Address space is not typically constrained for most applications, though,
|
|
// so this isn't a big problem.
|
|
// The idea for this trick came from <http://phil.ipal.org/freeware/vrb/> (via sweetcode.org),
|
|
// although none of that code is used here. (We use the Mach VM API directly.)
|
|
//
|
|
|
|
// Threading note:
|
|
// It is expected that this object will be shared between exactly two threads; one will
|
|
// always read and the other will always write. In that situation, the implementation is
|
|
// thread-safe, and this object will never block or yield.
|
|
// It will also work in one thread, of course (although I don't know why you'd bother).
|
|
// However, if you have multiple reader or writer threads, all bets are off!
