Definition at line 49 of file cs-policy-lru.hpp.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ EntryRef

using nfd::cs::Policy::EntryRef = Table::const_iterator
inherited

a reference to an CS entry

Note
operator< of EntryRef compares the Data name enclosed in the Entry.

Definition at line 111 of file cs-policy.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ LruPolicy()

nfd::cs::lru::LruPolicy::LruPolicy ( )

Definition at line 36 of file cs-policy-lru.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ afterInsert()

void nfd::cs::Policy::afterInsert ( EntryRef  i)
inherited

invoked by CS after a new entry is inserted

Postcondition
cs.size() <= getLimit()

The policy may evict entries if necessary. During this process, i might be evicted.

Definition at line 76 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ afterRefresh()

void nfd::cs::Policy::afterRefresh ( EntryRef  i)
inherited

invoked by CS after an existing entry is refreshed by same Data

The policy may witness this refresh to make better eviction decisions in the future.

Definition at line 83 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ beforeErase()

void nfd::cs::Policy::beforeErase ( EntryRef  i)
inherited

invoked by CS before an entry is erased due to management command

Warning
CS must not invoke this method if an entry is erased due to eviction.

Definition at line 90 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ beforeUse()

void nfd::cs::Policy::beforeUse ( EntryRef  i)
inherited

invoked by CS before an entry is used to match a lookup

The policy may witness this usage to make better eviction decisions in the future.

Definition at line 97 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ create()

unique_ptr< Policy > nfd::cs::Policy::create ( const std::string &  policyName)
staticinherited
Returns
a cs::Policy identified by policyName, or nullptr if policyName is unknown

Definition at line 46 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ getCs()

Cs* nfd::cs::Policy::getCs ( ) const
inlineinherited

gets cs

Definition at line 77 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ getLimit()

size_t nfd::cs::Policy::getLimit ( ) const
inlineinherited

gets hard limit (in number of entries)

Definition at line 93 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ getName()

const std::string& nfd::cs::Policy::getName ( ) const
inlineinherited

Definition at line 69 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ getPolicyNames()

std::set< std::string > nfd::cs::Policy::getPolicyNames ( )
staticinherited
Returns
a list of available policy names

Definition at line 54 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ registerPolicy()

template<typename P >
static void nfd::cs::Policy::registerPolicy ( const std::string &  policyName = P::POLICY_NAME)
inlinestaticinherited

Definition at line 43 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ setCs()

void nfd::cs::Policy::setCs ( Cs cs)
inlineinherited

sets cs

Definition at line 85 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ setLimit()

void nfd::cs::Policy::setLimit ( size_t  nMaxEntries)
inherited

sets hard limit (in number of entries)

Postcondition
getLimit() == nMaxEntries
cs.size() <= getLimit()

The policy may evict entries if necessary.

Definition at line 68 of file cs-policy.cpp.

Member Data Documentation

◆ beforeEvict

signal::Signal<Policy, EntryRef> nfd::cs::Policy::beforeEvict
inherited

emits when an entry is being evicted

A policy implementation should emit this signal to cause CS to erase an entry from its index. CS should connect to this signal and erase the entry upon signal emission.

Definition at line 118 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ POLICY_NAME

const std::string nfd::cs::lru::LruPolicy::POLICY_NAME = "lru"
static

Definition at line 55 of file cs-policy-lru.hpp.
