<p>The <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_lk_detect.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->set_lk_detect()</a> method specifies that the deadlock detector
|
|||
|
|
should be run whenever a lock is about to block. This option provides
|
|||
|
|
for rapid detection of deadlocks at the expense of potentially frequent
|
|||
|
|
invocations of the deadlock detector. On a fast processor with a highly
|
|||
|
|
contentious application where response time is critical, this is a good
|
|||
|
|
choice. An option argument to the <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_lk_detect.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->set_lk_detect()</a> method
|
|||
|
|
indicates which lock requests should be rejected.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The application can limit how long it blocks on a contested resource.
|
|||
|
|
The <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_timeout.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->set_timeout()</a> method specifies the length of the timeout.
|
|||
|
|
This value is checked whenever deadlock detection is performed,
|
|||
|
|
so the accuracy of the timeout depends upon the frequency of
|
|||
|
|
deadlock detection.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In general, when applications are not specifying lock and transaction
|
|||
|
|
timeout values, the <a href="../api_reference/C/lockdetect.html#detect_DB_LOCK_DEFAULT" class="olink">DB_LOCK_DEFAULT</a> option is probably the
|
|||
|
|
correct first choice, and other options should only be selected based
|
|||
|
|
on evidence that they improve transaction throughput. If an application
|
|||
|
|
has long-running transactions, <a href="../api_reference/C/lockdetect.html#detect_DB_LOCK_YOUNGEST" class="olink">DB_LOCK_YOUNGEST</a> will guarantee
|
|||
|
|
that transactions eventually complete, but it may do so at the expense
|
|||
|
|
of a large number of lock request rejections (and therefore, transaction
|
|||
|
|
aborts).</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The alternative to using the <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_lk_detect.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->set_lk_detect()</a> method is to
|
|||
|
|
explicitly perform deadlock detection using the Berkeley DB
|
|||
|
|
<a href="../api_reference/C/lockdetect.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->lock_detect()</a> method.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_lk_conflicts.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->set_lk_conflicts()</a> method allows you to specify your own
|
|||
|
|
locking conflicts matrix. This is an advanced configuration option,
|
|||
|
|
and is almost never necessary.</p>
