The +xShutdown method is only called from <a href="../c3ref/initialize.html">sqlite3_shutdown()</a> so it does +not need to be threadsafe either. All other methods must be threadsafe +in multithreaded applications.</p> + +<p>SQLite will never invoke xInit() more than once without an intervening +call to xShutdown().</p> + +<p><a name="thexcreatepagecachemethods"></a> + +SQLite invokes the xCreate() method to construct a new cache instance. +SQLite will typically create one cache instance for each open database file, +though this is not guaranteed. The +first parameter, szPage, is the size in bytes of the pages that must +be allocated by the cache. szPage will always a power of two. The +second parameter szExtra is a number of bytes of extra storage +associated with each page cache entry. The szExtra parameter will +a number less than 250. SQLite will use the +extra szExtra bytes on each page to store metadata about the underlying +database page on disk. The value passed into szExtra depends +on the SQLite version, the target platform, and how SQLite was compiled. +The third argument to xCreate(), bPurgeable, is true if the cache being +created will be used to cache database pages of a file stored on disk, or +false if it is used for an in-memory database. The cache implementation +does not have to do anything special based with the value of bPurgeable; +it is purely advisory. On a cache where bPurgeable is false, SQLite will +never invoke xUnpin() except to deliberately delete a page. +In other words, calls to xUnpin() on a cache with bPurgeable set to +false will always have the "discard" flag set to true. +Hence, a cache created with bPurgeable false will +never contain any unpinned pages.</p> + +<p><a name="thexcachesizepagecachemethod"></a> + +The xCachesize() method may be called at any time by SQLite to set the +suggested maximum cache-size (number of pages stored by) the cache +instance passed as the first argument. This is the value configured using +the SQLite "<a href="../pragma.html#pragma_cache_size">PRAGMA cache_size</a>" command. As with the bPurgeable +parameter, the implementation is not required to do anything with this +value; it is advisory only.</p> + +<p><a name="thexpagecountpagecachemethods"></a> + +The xPagecount() method must return the number of pages currently +stored in the cache, both pinned and unpinned.</p> + +<p><a name="thexfetchpagecachemethods"></a> + +The xFetch() method locates a page in the cache and returns a pointer to +an sqlite3_pcache_page object associated with that page, or a NULL pointer. +The pBuf element of the returned sqlite3_pcache_page object will be a +pointer to a buffer of szPage bytes used to store the content of a +single database page. The pExtra element of sqlite3_pcache_page will be +a pointer to the szExtra bytes of extra storage that SQLite has requested +for each entry in the page cache.</p> + +<p>The page to be fetched is determined by the key. The minimum key value +is 1. After it has been retrieved using xFetch, the page is considered +to be "pinned".</p> + +<p>If the requested page is already in the page cache, then the page cache +implementation must return a pointer to the page buffer with its content +intact. If the requested page is not already in the cache, then the +cache implementation should use the value of the createFlag +parameter to help it determined what action to take:</p> + +<p><table border=1 width=85% align=center> +<tr><th> createFlag <th> Behavior when page is not already in cache +<tr><td> 0 <td> Do not allocate a new page. Return NULL. +<tr><td> 1 <td> Allocate a new page if it easy and convenient to do so. +Otherwise return NULL. +<tr><td> 2 <td> Make every effort to allocate a new page. Only return +NULL if allocating a new page is effectively impossible. +</table></p> + +<p>SQLite will normally invoke xFetch() with a createFlag of 0 or 1. SQLite +will only use a createFlag of 2 after a prior call with a createFlag of 1 +failed. In between the xFetch() calls, SQLite may +attempt to unpin one or more cache pages by spilling the content of +pinned pages to disk and synching the operating system disk cache.</p> + +<p><a name="thexunpinpagecachemethod"></a> + +xUnpin() is called by SQLite with a pointer to a currently pinned page +as its second argument. If the third parameter, discard, is non-zero, +then the page must be evicted from the cache. +If the discard parameter is +zero, then the page may be discarded or retained at the discretion of +page cache implementation. The page cache implementation +may choose to evict unpinned pages at any time.</p> + +<p>The cache must not perform any reference counting. A single +call to xUnpin() unpins the page regardless of the number of prior calls +to xFetch().</p> + +<p><a name="thexrekeypagecachemethods"></a> + +The xRekey() method is used to change the key value associated with the +page passed as the second argument. If the cache +previously contains an entry associated with newKey, it must be +discarded. Any prior cache entry associated with newKey is guaranteed not +to be pinned.</p> + +<p>When SQLite calls the xTruncate() method, the cache must discard all +existing cache entries with page numbers (keys) greater than or equal +to the value of the iLimit parameter passed to xTruncate(). If any +of these pages are pinned, they are implicitly unpinned, meaning that +they can be safely discarded.</p> + +<p><a name="thexdestroypagecachemethod"></a> + +The xDestroy() method is used to delete a cache allocated by xCreate(). +All resources associated with the specified cache should be freed. After +calling the xDestroy() method, SQLite considers the <a href="../c3ref/pcache.html">sqlite3_pcache*</a> +handle invalid, and will not use it with any other sqlite3_pcache_methods2 +functions.</p> + +<p><a name="thexshrinkpagecachemethod"></a> + +SQLite invokes the xShrink() method when it wants the page cache to +free up as much of heap memory as possible. The page cache implementation +is not obligated to free any memory, but well-behaved implementations should +do their best. +</p><p>See also lists of + <a href="../c3ref/objlist.html">Objects</a>, + <a href="../c3ref/constlist.html">Constants</a>, and + <a href="../c3ref/funclist.html">Functions</a>.</p> + |
