Detailed Description

Least-Recently-Used (LRU) replacement policy.

Definition at line 48 of file cs-policy-lru.hpp.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ EntryRef

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

A reference to a CS entry.

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

Definition at line 113 of file cs-policy.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ LruPolicy()

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

Definition at line 34 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 75 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 82 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 89 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 96 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 45 of file cs-policy.cpp.

◆ getCs()

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

Returns a pointer to the associated CS instance.

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

◆ getLimit()

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

Gets hard limit (in number of entries).

Definition at line 95 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ getName()

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

Definition at line 68 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 53 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)
inlinenoexceptinherited

Sets the associated CS instance.

Definition at line 86 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 67 of file cs-policy.cpp.

Member Data Documentation

◆ beforeEvict

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

Signal emitted 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 120 of file cs-policy.hpp.

◆ POLICY_NAME

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

Definition at line 54 of file cs-policy-lru.hpp.
