ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool Class Reference

Make a memory pool that is based on System V shared memory (shmget(2) etc.). This implementation allows memory to be shared between processes. If your platform doesn't support System V shared memory (e.g., Win32 and many RTOS platforms do not) then you should use ACE_MMAP_Memory_Pool instead of this class. In fact, you should probably use ACE_MMAP_Memory_Pool on platforms that *do* support System V shared memory since it provides more powerful features, such as persistent backing store and greatly scalability.

typedef ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool_Options ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::OPTIONS

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool	(	const ACE_TCHAR *	backing_store_name = `0`,
		const OPTIONS *	options = `0`
	)

Initialize the pool.

ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::~ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool ( void ) [virtual]

Member Function Documentation

void * ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::init_acquire	(	size_t	nbytes,
		size_t &	rounded_bytes,
		int &	first_time
	)			`[virtual]`

Ask system for initial chunk of local memory.

void * ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::acquire	(	size_t	nbytes,
		size_t &	rounded_bytes
	)			`[virtual]`

Acquire at least nbytes from the memory pool. rounded_byes is the actual number of bytes allocated. Also acquires an internal semaphore that ensures proper serialization of Memory_Pool initialization across processes.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::release ( int destroy = 1 ) [virtual]

Instruct the memory pool to release all of its resources.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::sync	(	ssize_t	len = `-1`,
		int	flags = `MS_SYNC`
	)			`[virtual]`

Sync the memory region to the backing store starting at this->base_addr_.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::sync	(	void *	addr,
		size_t	len,
		int	flags = `MS_SYNC`
	)			`[virtual]`

Sync the memory region to the backing store starting at addr.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::protect	(	ssize_t	len = `-1`,
		int	prot = `PROT_RDWR`
	)			`[virtual]`

Change the protection of the pages of the mapped region to prot starting at this->base_addr_ up to len bytes. If len == -1 then change protection of all pages in the mapped region.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::protect	(	void *	addr,
		size_t	len,
		int	prot = `PROT_RDWR`
	)			`[virtual]`

Change the protection of the pages of the mapped region to prot starting at addr up to len bytes.

void * ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::base_addr ( void ) const [virtual]

Return the base address of this memory pool, 0 if base_addr never changes.

void ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::dump ( void ) const [virtual]

Dump the state of an object.

size_t ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::round_up ( size_t nbytes ) [protected, virtual]

Implement the algorithm for rounding up the request to an appropriate chunksize.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::commit_backing_store_name	(	size_t	rounded_bytes,
		ACE_OFF_T &	offset
	)			`[protected, virtual]`

Commits a new shared memory segment if necessary after an <acquire> or a signal. offset is set to the new offset into the backing store.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::find_seg	(	const void *const	searchPtr,
		ACE_OFF_T &	offset,
		size_t &	counter
	)			`[protected, virtual]`

Find the segment that contains the searchPtr.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::in_use	(	ACE_OFF_T &	offset,
		size_t &	counter
	)			`[protected, virtual]`

Determine how much memory is currently in use.

int ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::handle_signal	(	int	signum,
		siginfo_t *	siginfo,
		ucontext_t *
	)			`[protected, virtual]`

Handle SIGSEGV and SIGBUS signals to remap shared memory properly.

Reimplemented from ACE_Event_Handler.

Member Data Documentation

ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::ACE_ALLOC_HOOK_DECLARE

Declare the dynamic allocation hooks.

void* ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::base_addr_ [protected]

Base address of the shared memory segment. If this has the value of 0 then the OS is free to select any address, otherwise this value is what the OS must try to use to map the shared memory segment.

size_t ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::file_perms_ [protected]

File permissions to use when creating/opening a segment.

size_t ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::max_segments_ [protected]

Number of shared memory segments in the <SHM_TABLE> table.

ACE_OFF_T ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::minimum_bytes_ [protected]

What the minimim bytes of the initial segment should be.

size_t ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::segment_size_ [protected]

Shared memory segment size.

key_t ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::base_shm_key_ [protected]

Base shared memory key for the segment.

ACE_Sig_Handler ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool::signal_handler_ [protected]

Handles SIGSEGV.
