sekejap-kernel 0.18.0

//! 2n: the reader table -- how the writer learns the oldest generation any
//! live snapshot reader still needs, so page recycling never pulls a page
//! out from under one.
//!
//! LMDB's shape, flock-based so it cannot go stale: each snapshot reader
//! creates `readers/r-<pid>-<n>` holding its pinned generation and KEEPS an
//! exclusive flock on it for the snapshot's lifetime. Close or crash, the
//! kernel drops the lock with the fd. The writer, when it wants the oldest,
//! walks the directory: a file whose lock it can grab is a dead reader's
//! leavings (unlinked on the spot); a file whose lock is busy is a live
//! reader. Its generation is stored in two identical framed copies, each with
//! magic, version and CRC. Any malformed copy or disagreement means generation
//! zero: ambiguity leaks space but cannot recycle a live snapshot's pages.
//!
//! Failure posture (the 2n risk ladder): an unreadable directory or file
//! means "assume a reader at generation 0" -- recycling stops, the file
//! grows like it always did, nothing can be wrongly reused.
