Git Pull Request:
LIRS eviction not evicting correctly
------------------------------------
Key: ISPN-1347
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1347
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Eviction
Affects Versions: 5.0.0.FINAL
Reporter: Jozef Vilkolak
Assignee: Vladimir Blagojevic
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 5.1.0.ALPHA2 , 5.1.0.FINAL
It seems LIRS eviction at this moment only evicts the first entry in the HIR queue and
nothing else. I have written a test based on [this
presentation|https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:jcEF5qSkCo4J:...]
located in the eviction-strategy module of
[
edg-functional-tests|https://svn.devel.redhat.com/repos/jboss-qa/edg/edg-...]
that is at the moment failing.
Upon closer examination I have found a couple of things I think may be the cause:
* in infinispan.util.concurrent.BoundedConcurrentHashMap
** in execute() of the LIRS eviction if you have more items in the accessQueue and while
processing you choose an item to be evicted it is added to the evicted Set. But if it is
still in the accessQueue(and the operation was put) it gets proccesed but in the end still
ends up evicted because it was not removed from the evicted set.
** in onEntryMiss of the LIRS eviction the very first if shouldn't first increment
currentLIRSize because otherwise LIRSize is never full and therefore the LIRS algorithm
never truly happens because execute() is never called that's why it only evicts from
the HIR queue. It also causes the cache to be able to hold only maxEntries-1 entries. Also
if (queue.size() < hirSizeLimit) condition is true the item should also be added to the
stack in order to track its recency. And lastly I don't think onEntryMiss should be
evicting elements because that way we can't track their recency. They will get
eventually evicted by pruning.
** the function onEntryRemove should not in my opinion remove entries from the stack
because otherwise there is no way to track recency of HIR-nonresident blocks. They will
eventually get removed from the stack by pruning. It also seems this function gets called
when clearing the cache instead of clear.
* in Segment class
** the remove operation makes entries behave as if they were just added as is already
documented there with a TODO
** the get operation calls onEntryHit which can cause problems if get is used while
servicing a put operation because it gets called twice
If some of these things were design choices let me know so I will modify the test.
