RocksDB 是一个基于 LSM 树(Log-Structured Merge-tree)结构的单机数据库引擎,内存表是它最重要的数据结构之一。除了默认的跳表(SkipList)之外,它还增加了各种其他的内存表,例如:HashSkipList、HashLinkList、Vector 等。HashSkipList 是在跳表外套了一层 Hash,每个桶对应了一个跳表。类似的,HashLinkList 是在链表外套了一层 Hash,每个桶对应了一个链表。这两种内存表都需要配置 prefix_extractor,以计算 hash 值。RocksDB 支持的内存表类型见下图:
为了方便使用,内存表有对应的工厂类 MemTableRepFactory。与内存表类型对应,完整的内存表工厂类的继承关系如下图:
从内存表的基类 MemTableRep 中可以看到,它支持的 API 有 Get、Insert 等,但是没有 Delete。这是因为 Delete 被上层转换成了一个 Insert,真正的删除是在数据合并过程中做的。
相比 HashSkipList 而言,HashLinkList 要更简洁/简单一些,也可以节约内存的占用。它的缺点是不支持并发的写入。为了测试各种内存表的表现,RocksDB 提供了一个简单的测试工具,参看:memtablerep_bench.cc。我们也可以在示例代码 examples/simple_example.cc 中修改一下来验证 HashLinkList 的使用。例如:
$ git diff examples/simple_example.cc
diff --git a/examples/simple_example.cc b/examples/simple_example.cc

需要注意的几个地方:
HashLinkList 的代码存在以下两个文件中:memtable/hash_linklist_rep.h 以及 memtable/hash_linklist_rep.cc。可以看到它做了一些细节的优化,从简单的 Hash 链表逐步演化到 Hash 跳表。代码注释得非常清楚,参看下图:
由于存在上述的一些优化,Hash 表在不同时刻会存在不同的形式。
如果 HashLinkList 要支持并发写,就需要对数据结构做适当的控制。不过当前它并不支持并发写,而是单写多读。它实现时采用了 C++ 11 的 Atomic 做一些特殊的处理避免加锁。另外需要注意的是,这个 Iterator 的实现 MemTableRep::Iterator* HashLinkListRep::GetIterator() 比较费资源,它会 new 一个 MemtableSkipList,把记录都遍历出来并插入进去。
采用修改后的 simple_example.cc,可以看到插入、查找、删除所对应的执行路径,用来理解代码的主要执行流程。
