Detailed Description

SMA-X is a software implementation for SMA shared data, and is the base layer for the software reflective memory (RM) emulation, and DSM replacement. It works by communicating TCP/IP messages to a central Redis server.

Date: Jan 26, 2018

Author: Attila Kovacs

There is also extra functionality, for configuring, performance tweaking, verbosity control, and some convenience methods (e.g. data serialization/deserialization).

Function Documentation

◆ smaxAddConnectHook()

int smaxAddConnectHook ( void(*)(void) setupCall )

Add a callback function for when SMA-X is connected. It's a wrapper to redisxAddConnectHook().

Parameters

setupCall Callback function

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) or an error code (<0) from redisxAddConnectHook().

See also: smaxRemoveConnectHook(); smaxConnect(); smaxConnectTo()

References redisxAddConnectHook(), smaxGetRedis(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxAddDisconnectHook()

int smaxAddDisconnectHook ( void(*)(void) cleanupCall )

Add a callback function for when SMA-X is disconnected. It's a wrapper to redisxAddDisconnectHook().

Parameters

cleanupCall Callback function

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) or an error code (<0) from redisxAddConnectHook().

See also: smaxRemoveDisconnectHook(); smaxDisconnect()

References redisxAddDisconnectHook(), smaxGetRedis(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxAddSubscriber()

int smaxAddSubscriber	(	const char *	idStem,
		RedisSubscriberCall	f
	)

Add a subcriber (callback) function to process incoming PUB/SUB messages for a given SMA-X table (or id). The function should itself check that the channel receiving notification is indeed what it expectes before acting on it, as the callback routine will be invoked for any update inside the specified table, unless the table argument refers to a specific aggregate ID of a single variable. This call only registers the callback routine for SMA-X update notifications for variables that begin with the specified stem. You will still have to subscrive to any relevant variables with smaxSubscribe() to enable delivering update notifications for the variables of your choice.

Parameters

idStem	Table name or ID stem for which the supplied callback function will be invoked as long as the beginning of the PUB/SUB update channel matches the given stem. Alternatively, it can be a fully qualified SMA-X ID (of the form table:key) f a single variable.
f	The function to call when there is an incoming PUB/SUB update to a channel starting with stem.

Returns: X_SUCCESS if successful, or else an approriate error code by redisxAddSubscriber()

See also: smaxSubscribe()

References redisxAddSubscriber(), SMAX_UPDATES_ROOT, smaxGetRedis(), X_SUCCESS, and xGetAggregateID().

◆ smaxConnect()

int smaxConnect ( )

Initializes the SMA-X sharing library in this runtime instance.

Returns: X_SUCCESS If the library was successfully initialized X_ALREADY_OPEN If SMA-X sharing was already open. X_NO_SERVICE If the there was an issue establishing the necessary network connection(s). X_NAME_INVALID If the redis server name lookup failed. X_NULL If the Redis IP address is NULL

See also: smaxSetServer(); smaxSetAuth(); smaxConnectTo(); smaxDisconnect(); smaxReconnect(); smaxIsConnected()

◆ smaxConnectTo()

int smaxConnectTo ( const char * server )

Initializes the SMA-X sharing library in this runtime instance with the specified Redis server. SMA-X is initialized in resilient mode, so that we'll automatically attempt to reconnect to the Redis server if the connection is severed (once it was established). If that is not the desired behavior, you should call smaxSetResilient(FALSE) after connecting.

Parameters

server SMA-X Redis server name or IP address, e.g. "127.0.0.1".

Returns: X_SUCCESS If the library was successfully initialized X_NO_SERVICE If the there was an issue establishing the necessary network connection(s).

See also: smaxConnect(); smaxDisconnect(); smaxReconnect(); smaxIsConnected(); smaxSetResilient()

References smaxConnect(), smaxSetServer(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxDisconnect()

int smaxDisconnect ( )

Disables the SMA-X sharing capability, closing underlying network connections.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if the sharing was properly ended. X_NO_INIT if SMA-X was has not been started prior to this call.

See also: smaxConnect(); smaxConnectTo(); smaxReconnect(); smaxIsConnected()

References redisxDisconnect(), smaxIsConnected(), x_error(), X_NO_INIT, X_SUCCESS, and xvprintf.

◆ smaxGetHostName()

char * smaxGetHostName ( )

Returns the host name on which this program is running. It returns a reference to the same static variable every time. As such you should never call free() on the returned value. Note, that only the leading part of the host name is returned, so for a host that is registered as 'somenode.somedomain' only 'somenode' is returned.

Returns: The host name string (leading part only).

See also: smaxSetHostName()

References xStringCopyOf().

◆ smaxGetKeys()

char ** smaxGetKeys	(	const char *	table,
		int *	n
	)

Returns a snapshot of the key names stored in a given Redis hash table, ot NULL if there was an error.

Parameters

	table	Host name or owner ID whose variable to count.
[out]	n	Pointer to which the number of keys (>=0) or an error (<0) is returned. An error returned by redisxGetKeys(), or else:

X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X sharing was not initialized, e.g. via smaxConnect(). X_GROUP_INVALID if the table name is invalid. X_NULL if the output 'n' pointer is NULL.

Returns: An array of pointers to the names of Redis keys.

See also: smaxKeyCount()

boolean smaxIsPipelined ( )

Check if SMA-X is configured with pipeline mode enabled.

Returns: TRUE (1) if the pipeline is enabled, or else FALSE (0)

See also: smaxSetPipelined()

◆ smaxIsVerbose()

boolean smaxIsVerbose ( )

Checks id verbose reporting is enabled.

Returns: TRUE if verbose reporting is enabled, otherwise FALSE.

References REDISX_INTERACTIVE_CHANNEL, X_NULL, X_STRUCT, X_SUCCESS, x_trace(), xGetAggregateID(), and xStringCopyOf().

◆ smaxReconnect()

int smaxReconnect ( )

Reconnects to the SMA-X server. It will try connecting repeatedly at regular intervals until the connection is made. If resilient mode is enabled, then locally accumulated shares will be sent to the Redis server upon reconnection. However, subscriptions are not automatically re-established. The caller is responsible for reinstate any necessary subscriptions after the reconnection or via an approproate connection hook.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful X_NO_INIT if SMA-X was never initialized.

or the error returned by redisxReconnect().

References redisxReconnect(), SMAX_RECONNECT_RETRY_SECONDS, x_error(), X_NO_INIT, X_SUCCESS, and xvprintf.

◆ smaxReleaseWaits()

int smaxReleaseWaits ( )

Unblocks all smax_wait*() calls, which will return X_REL_PREMATURE, as a result.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0)

See also: smaxWaitOnAnySubscribed()

References RELEASEID, X_SUCCESS, and xvprintf.

◆ smaxRemoveConnectHook()

int smaxRemoveConnectHook ( void(*)(void) setupCall )

Remove a post-connection callback function. It's a wrapper to redisxRemoveConnectHook().

Parameters

setupCall Callback function

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) or an error code (<0) from redisxAddConnectHook().

See also: smaxAddConnectHook(); smaxConnect(); smaxConnectTo()

References redisxRemoveConnectHook(), smaxGetRedis(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxRemoveDisconnectHook()

int smaxRemoveDisconnectHook ( void(*)(void) cleanupCall )

Remove a post-cdisconnect callback function. It's a wrapper to redisxRemiveDisconnectHook().

Parameters

cleanupCall Callback function

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) or an error code (<0) from redisxAddConnectHook().

See also: smaxAddDisconnectHook(); smaxDisconnect()

References redisxRemoveDisconnectHook(), smaxGetRedis(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxRemoveSubscribers()

int smaxRemoveSubscribers ( RedisSubscriberCall f )

Remove all instances of a subscriber callback function from the current list of functions processing PUB/SUB messages. This call only deactivates the callback routine, but does not stop the delivery of update notifications from the Redis server. You should therefore also call smaxUnsubscribe() as appropriate to stop notifications for variables that no longer have associated callbacks.

Parameters

f	Function to remove

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or else an error (<0) returned by redisxRemoveSubscriber().

See also: smaxUnsubscribe()

References redisxRemoveSubscribers(), smaxGetRedis(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxSetAuth()

int smaxSetAuth	(	const char *	username,
		const char *	password
	)

Sets the SMA-X database authentication parameters (if any) before connecting to the SMA-X server.

Parameters

username	Redis ACL user name (if any), or NULL for no user-based authentication
password	Redis database password (if any), or NULL if the database is not password protected

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_ALREADY_OPEN if cannot alter the server configuration because we are already in a connected state.

See also: smaxSetServer(); smaxConnect()

References smaxIsConnected(), X_ALREADY_OPEN, x_error(), X_SUCCESS, and xStringCopyOf().

◆ smaxSetDB()

int smaxSetDB ( int idx )

Sets a non-default Redis database index to use for SMA-X before connecting to the SMA-X server.

Parameters

idx	The Redis database index to use (if not the default one)

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_ALREADY_OPEN if cannot alter the server configuration because we are already in a connected state.

See also: smaxSetServer(); smaxConnect()

References smaxIsConnected(), X_ALREADY_OPEN, x_error(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxSetHostName()

void smaxSetHostName ( const char * name )

Changes the host name to the user-specified value instead of the default (leading component of the value returned by gethostname()). Subsequent calls to smaxGetHostName() will return the newly set value. An argument of NULL resets to the default.

Parameters

name	the host name to use, or NULL to revert to the default (leading component of gethostname()).

See also: smaxGetHostName()

References xStringCopyOf().

◆ smaxSetPipelineConsumer()

int smaxSetPipelineConsumer ( void(*)(RESP *) f )

Change the pipeline response consumer function (from it's default or other previous consumer). It is a wrapper for redisxSetPipelineConsumer().

Parameters

f	The function to process ALL pipeline responses from Redis.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or else an error by redisxSetPipelineConsumer()

See also: smaxSetPipelined(); smaxIsPipelined()

References redisxSetPipelineConsumer(), smaxGetRedis(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxSetPipelined()

int smaxSetPipelined ( boolean isEnabled )

Enable or disable pipelined write operations (enabled by default). When pipelining, share calls will return as soon as the request is sent to the Redis server, without waiting for a response. Instead, responses are consumed asynchronously by a dedicated thread, which will report errors to stderr. Pipelined writes can have a significant performance advantage over handshaking at the cost of one extra socket connection to Redis (dedicated to pipelining) and the extra thread consuming responses.

The default state of pipelined writes might vary by platform (e.g. enabled on Linux, disabled on LynxOS).

IMPORTANT: calls to smaxSetPipelined() must precede the call to smaxConnect().

Parameters

isEnabled TRUE to enable pipelined writes, FALSE to disable (default is enabled).

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_ALREADY_OPEN if cannot alter the server configuration because we are already in a connected state.

See also: smaxIsPipelined(); smaxSetPipelineConsumer()

References smaxIsConnected(), X_ALREADY_OPEN, x_error(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxSetServer()

int smaxSetServer	(	const char *	host,
		int	port
	)

Configures the SMA-X server before connecting.

Parameters

host	The SMA-X REdis server host name or IP address.
port	The Redis port number on the SMA-X server, or &lt=0 to use the default

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_ALREADY_OPEN if cannot alter the server configuration because we are already in a connected state.

See also: smaxSetAuth(); smaxSetDB(); smaxConnect()

References REDISX_TCP_PORT, smaxIsConnected(), X_ALREADY_OPEN, x_error(), X_SUCCESS, and xStringCopyOf().

◆ smaxSetTcpBuf()

int smaxSetTcpBuf ( int size )

Set the size of the TCP/IP buffers (send and receive) for future client connections.

Parameters

size	(bytes) requested buffer size, or <= 0 to use default value

See also: smaxConnect;

References smaxIsConnected(), X_ALREADY_OPEN, x_error(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxSetVerbose()

void smaxSetVerbose ( boolean value )

Enable or disable verbose reporting of all SMA-X operations (and possibly some details of them). Reporting is done on the standard output (stdout). It may be useful when debugging programs that use the SMA-X interface. Verbose reporting is DISABLED by default.

Parameters

value TRUE to enable verbose reporting, or FALSE to disable.

See also: smaxIsVerbose()

References redisxSetVerbose().

◆ smaxShare()

int smaxShare	(	const char *	table,
		const char *	key,
		const void *	value,
		XType	type,
		int	count
	)

Share the data into a Redis hash table over the interactive Redis client. It's a fire-and-forget type implementation, which sends the data to Redis, without waiting for confirmation of its arrival. The choice improves the efficiency and throughput, and minimizes execution time, of the call, but it also means that a pipelined pull request in quick succession, e.g. via smaxQueue(), may return a value on the pipeline client before this call is fully executed on the interactive Redis client.

(It is generally unlikely that you will follow this share call with a pipelined pull of the same variable. It would not only create superflous network traffic for no good reason, but it also would have unpredictable results. So, don't.)

Parameters

table	Hash table name in which to share entry.
key	Variable name under which the data is stored.
value	Pointer to the buffer whose data is to be shared.
type	SMA-X variable type, e.g. X_FLOAT or X_CHARS(40), of the buffer.
count	Number of 1D elements.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X library was not initialized. X_GROUP_INVALID if the table name is invalid. X_NAME_INVALID if the 'key' argument is invalid. X_SIZE_INVALID if count < 1 or count > X_MAX_ELEMENTS X_NULL if the 'value' argument is NULL. X_NO_SERVICE if there was no connection to the Redis server. X_FAILURE if there was an underlying failure.

◆ smaxShareArray()

int smaxShareArray	(	const char *	table,
		const char *	key,
		const void *	ptr,
		XType	type,
		int	ndim,
		const int *	sizes
	)

Share a multidimensional array, such as an int[][][], or float[][], in a single atomic transaction.

Parameters

key	Variable name under which the data is stored.
ptr	Pointer to the data buffer, such as an `int[][][]` or `float[][]`.
type	SMA-X variable type, e.g. X_FLOAT or X_CHARS(40), of the buffer.
ndim	Dimensionality of the data (0 <= `ndim` <= X_MAX_DIMS).
sizes	An array of ints containing the sizes along each dimension.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X library was not initialized. X_GROUP_INVALID if the table name is invalid. X_NAME_INVALID if the 'key' argument is invalid. X_SIZE_INVALID if ndim or sizes are invalid. X_NULL if the 'value' argument is NULL. X_NO_SERVICE if there was no connection to the Redis server. X_FAILURE if there was an underlying failure.

		const XField *	f
	)

Share a field object, which may contain any SMA-X data type.

Parameters

table	Hash table in which to write entry.
f	Pointer for XField holding the data to share.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X library was not initialized. X_GROUP_INVALID if the table name is invalid. X_NAME_INVALID if the 'key' argument is invalid. X_SIZE_INVALID if ndim or sizes are invalid. X_NULL if the 'value' argument is NULL. X_NO_SERVICE if there was no connection to the Redis server. X_FAILURE if there was an underlying failure.

◆ smaxShareStruct()

int smaxShareStruct	(	const char *	id,
		const XStructure *	s
	)

Share a structure, and all its data including recursive sub-structures, in a single atromic transaction.

Parameters

id	Structure's ID, i.e. its own aggregated hash table name.
s	Pointer to the structure data.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if successful, or X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X library was not initialized. X_GROUP_INVALID if the table name is invalid. X_NAME_INVALID if the 'key' argument is invalid.

References smaxCreateField(), X_NO_SERVICE, X_STRUCT, and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxSubscribe()

int smaxSubscribe	(	const char *	table,
		const char *	key
	)

Subscribes to a specific key(s) in specific group(s). Both the group and key names may contain Redis subscription patterns, e.g. '*' or '?', or bound characters in square-brackets, e.g. '[ab]'. The subscription only enables receiving update notifications from Redis for the specified variable or variables. After subscribing, you can either wait on the subscribed variables to change, or add callback functions to process subscribed variables changes, via smaxAddSubscriber().

Parameters

table	Variable group pattern, i.e. hash-table names. (NULL is the same as '*').
key	Variable name pattern. (if NULL then subscribes only to the table stem).

Returns: X_SUCCESS if successfully subscribed to the Redis distribution channel. X_NO_SERVICE if there is no active connection to the Redis server. X_NULL if the channel argument is NULL X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X library was not initialized.

See also: smaxUnsubscribe(); smaxWaitOnSubscribed(); smaxWaitOnSubscribedGroup(); smaxWaitOnSubscribedVar(); smaxWaitOnAnySubscribed(); smaxAddSubscriber()

References redisxSubscribe(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxUnsubscribe()

int smaxUnsubscribe	(	const char *	table,
		const char *	key
	)

Unsubscribes from a specific key(s) in specific group(s). Both the group and key names may contain Redis subscription patterns, e.g. '*' or '?', or bound characters in square-brackets, e.g. '[ab]'. Unsubscribing will only stops the delivery of update notifications for the affected varuiables, but does not deactivate the associated callbacks for these added via smaxAddSubscriber(). Therefore you should also call smaxRemovesubscribers() as appropriate to deactivate actions that can no longer get triggered by updates.

Parameters

table	Variable group pattern, i.e. structure or hash-table name(s) (NULL is the same as '*').
key	Variable name pattern. (if NULL then unsubscribes only from the table stem).

Returns: X_SUCCESS if successfully unsubscribed to the Redis distribution channel. X_NO_SERVICE if there is no active connection to the Redis server. X_NULL if the channel argument is NULL X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X library was not initialized.

See also: smaxSubscribe(); smaxRemoveSubscribers()

References redisxUnsubscribe(), and X_SUCCESS.

◆ smaxWaitOnAnySubscribed()

int smaxWaitOnAnySubscribed	(	char **	changedTable,
		char **	changedKey,
		int	timeout
	)

Waits until any variable was pushed on any host, returning both the host and variable name for the updated value. The variable must be already subscribed to with smaxSubscribe(), or else the wait will not receive update notifications.

Parameters

[out]	changedTable	Pointer to the variable that points to the string buffer for the returned table name or NULL. The lease of the buffer is for the call only.
[out]	changedKey	Pointer to the variable that points to the string buffer for the returned variable name or NULL. The lease of the buffer is for the call only.
[in]	timeout	(s) Timeout value. 0 or negative values result in an indefinite wait.

Returns: X_SUCCESS (0) if a variable was pushed on a host. X_NO_INIT if the SMA-X sharing was not initialized via smaxConnect(). X_NO_SERVICE if the connection was broken X_GROUP_INVALID if the buffer for the returned table name is NULL. X_NAME_INVALID if the buffer for the returned variable name is NULL. X_INTERRUPTED if smaxReleaseWaits() was called. X_INCOMPLETE if the wait timed out.
