If you are retrieving
|
|||
|
|
<span>a record from the database</span>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
for the purpose of modifying or deleting it, you should declare
|
|||
|
|
a read-modify-write cycle at the time that you read the
|
|||
|
|
<span>record.</span>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Doing so causes DB to obtain write locks (instead of a read
|
|||
|
|
locks) at the time of the read. This helps to prevent deadlocks by
|
|||
|
|
preventing another transaction from acquiring a read lock on the same
|
|||
|
|
record while the read-modify-write cycle is in progress.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Note that declaring a read-modify-write cycle may actually increase the amount of blocking that your
|
|||
|
|
application sees, because readers immediately obtain write locks and write locks cannot be shared. For this
|
|||
|
|
reason, you should use read-modify-write cycles only if you are seeing a large amount of deadlocking
|
|||
|
|
occurring in your application.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
In order to declare a read/modify/write cycle when you perform a
|
|||
|
|
read operation,
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<span>
|
|||
|
|
pass the <code class="literal">DB_RMW</code> flag
|
|||
|
|
<span>
|
|||
|
|
to the database or cursor get method.
|
|||
|
|
</span>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</span>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
For example:
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<pre class="programlisting">retry:
|
|||
|
|
/* Get the transaction */
|
|||
|
|
ret = envp->txn_begin(envp, NULL, &txn, 0);
|
|||
|
|
if (ret != 0) {
|
|||
|
|
envp->err(envp, ret, "txn_begin failed");
|
|||
|
|
return (EXIT_FAILURE);
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
...
|
|||
|
|
/* key and data are Dbts. Their usage is omitted for brevity. */
|
|||
|
|
...
|
|||
|
|
/* Get the data. Declare the read/modify/write cycle here */
|
|||
|
|
ret = dbp->get(dbp, txn, &key, &data, DB_RMW);
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
...
|
|||
|
|
/* Modify the key and data as is required (not shown here) */
|
|||
|
|
...
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
/* Put the data. Note that you do not have to provide any additional
|
|||
|
|
* flags here due to the read/modify/write cycle. Simply put the
|
|||
|
|
* data and perform your deadlock detection as normal.
|
|||
|
|
*/
|
|||
|
|
ret = dbp->put(dbp, txn, &key, &data, 0);
|
|||
|
|
switch (ret) {

/* Deadlock detection omitted for brevity */
