redis系列介绍七-过期策略​nicksxs.me

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

/* Try to expire a few timed out keys. 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beforeSleep和databasesCron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

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

控制，慢速的执行时长是

config_cycle_slow_time_perc = ACTIVE_EXPIRE_CYCLE_SLOW_TIME_PERC +
                                  2*effort
timelimit = config_cycle_slow_time_perc*1000000/server.hz/100;

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
