Detailed Description

Class for wrapping memory mapping system calls.

Usage for anonymous mapping:

MemoryMapping mapping(1024); // create anonymous mapping with size
auto ptr = mapping.get_addr<char*>(); // get pointer to memory
mapping.unmap(); // release mapping by calling unmap() (or at end of scope)

Or for file-backed mapping:

int fd = ::open(...);
{
MemoryMapping mapping(1024, true, fd, offset);
// use mapping
}
::close(fd);

If the file backing a file-backed mapping is not large enough, it will be resized. This works, of course, only for writable files, so for read-only files you have to make sure they are large enough for any mapping you want.

If you ask for a zero-sized mapping, a mapping of the systems page size will be created instead. For file-backed mapping this will only work if the file is writable.

There are different implementations for Unix and Windows systems. On Unix systems this wraps the mmap(), munmap(), and the mremap() system calls. On Windows it wraps the CreateFileMapping(), CloseHandle(), MapViewOfFile(), and UnmapViewOfFile() functions.

Member Typedef Documentation

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

osmium::util::MemoryMapping::MemoryMapping ( size_t  size,
bool  writable = true,
int  fd = -1,
off_t  offset = 0 
)
inline

Create memory mapping of given size.

If fd is not set (or fd == -1), an anonymous mapping will be created, otherwise a mapping based on the file descriptor will be created.

Precondition
size > 0 or writable==true
Parameters
sizeSize of the mapping in bytes
writableShould the mapping be writable?
fdOpen file descriptor of a file we want to map
offsetOffset into the file where the mapping should start
Exceptions
std::system_errorif the mapping fails
osmium::util::MemoryMapping::MemoryMapping ( const MemoryMapping )
delete

You can not copy construct a MemoryMapping.

osmium::util::MemoryMapping::MemoryMapping ( MemoryMapping &&  other)
inline

Move construct a mapping from another one. The other mapping will be marked as invalid.

osmium::util::MemoryMapping::~MemoryMapping ( )
inlinenoexcept

Releases the mapping by calling unmap(). Will never throw. Call unmap() instead if you want to be notified of any error.

Member Function Documentation

int osmium::util::MemoryMapping::fd ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

The file descriptor this mapping was created from.

Returns
file descriptor, -1 for anonymous mappings
template<typename T = void>
T* osmium::util::MemoryMapping::get_addr ( ) const
inline

Get the address of the mapping as any pointer type you like.

Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif the mapping is invalid
int osmium::util::MemoryMapping::get_flags ( ) const
inlineprivatenoexcept
int osmium::util::MemoryMapping::get_protection ( ) const

inlineprivatenoexcept
void osmium::util::MemoryMapping::make_invalid ( )
inlineprivatenoexcept
osmium::util::MemoryMapping::operator bool ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

In a boolean context a MemoryMapping is true when it is a valid existing mapping.

MemoryMapping& osmium::util::MemoryMapping::operator= ( const MemoryMapping )
delete

You can not copy a MemoryMapping.

osmium::util::MemoryMapping & osmium::util::MemoryMapping::operator= ( MemoryMapping &&  other)
inline

Move a mapping. The other mapping will be marked as invalid.

void osmium::util::MemoryMapping::resize ( size_t  new_size)
inline

Resize a mapping to the given new size.

On Linux systems this will use the mremap() function. On other systems it will unmap and remap the memory. This can only be done for file-based mappings, not anonymous mappings!

Parameters
new_sizeNumber of bytes to resize to
Exceptions
std::system_errorif the remapping fails
int osmium::util::MemoryMapping::resize_fd ( int  fd)
inlineprivate
size_t osmium::util::MemoryMapping::size ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

The number of bytes mapped. This is the same size you created the mapping with. The actual mapping will probably be larger because the system will round it to the page size.

void osmium::util::MemoryMapping::unmap ( )
inline

Unmap a mapping. If the mapping is not valid, it will do nothing.

Exceptions
std::system_errorif the unmapping fails
bool osmium::util::MemoryMapping::writable ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

Was this mapping created as a writable mapping?
