Detailed Description

Wrap multiple BagOStuff objects, to implement different caching tiers.

The order of the caches is important. The first tier is considered the primary and highest tier which must handle the majority of the load for reads, and is generally less persistent, smaller, and faster (e.g. evicts data regularly based on demand, keeping fewer keys at a given time). The other caches are consider secondary and lower tiers, which should hold more data and retain it for longer than the primary tier.

Data writes ("set") go to all given BagOStuff caches. If the replication => async option is set, then only the primary write is blocking during the web request, with other writes deferred until after the web response is sent.

Data reads try each cache in the order they are given, until a value is found. When a value is found at a secondary tier, it is automatically copied (back) to the primary tier.

Example: Keep popular data in memcached, with a fallback to a MySQL database. This is how ParserCache is used at Wikimedia Foundation (as of 2024).

If you configure a memcached server for MultiWriteBagOStuff that is the same as the one used for MediaWiki more generally, it is recommended to specify the tier via ObjectCache::getInstance() so that the same object and Memcached connection can be re-used.

$wgObjectCaches['my-memcached'] = [ .. ];
$wgMainCacheType = 'my-memcached';
$wgObjectCaches['parsercache-multiwrite'] = [
'class' => 'MultiWriteBagOStuff',
'caches' => [

'args' => [ 'my-memcached' ],

'servers' => $parserCacheDbServers,
'purgePeriod' => 0,
'tableName' => 'pc',
'shards' => 256,
'reportDupes' => false
],
]
];
$wgMainCacheType
Config variable stub for the MainCacheType setting, for use by phpdoc and IDEs.

The makeKey() method of this class uses an implementation-agnostic encoding. When it forward gets and sets to the other BagOStuff objects, keys are automatically re-encoded. For example, to satisfy the character and length constraints of MemcachedBagOStuff.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ __construct()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::__construct ( $params)
Stability: stable
to call
Parameters
array$params
  • caches: A numbered array of either ObjectFactory::getObjectFromSpec arrays yielding BagOStuff objects or direct BagOStuff objects. If using the former, the 'args' field must be set. The first cache is the primary one, being the first to be read in the fallback chain. Writes happen to all stores in the order they are defined. However, lock()/unlock() calls only use the primary store.
  • replication: Either 'sync' or 'async'. This controls whether writes to secondary stores are deferred when possible. To use 'async' writes requires the 'asyncHandler' option to be set as well. Async writes can increase the chance of some race conditions or cause keys to expire seconds later than expected. It is safe to use for modules when cached values: are immutable, invalidation uses logical TTLs, invalidation uses etag/timestamp validation against the DB, or merge() is used to handle races.

Member Function Documentation

◆ add()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::add ( $key,
$value,
$exptime = 0,
$flags = 0 )

Insert an item if it does not already exist.

Parameters
string$key
mixed$value
int$exptime
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::WRITE_* constants (since 1.33)
Returns
bool Success (item created)

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 237 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ changeTTL()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::changeTTL ( $key,
$exptime = 0,
$flags = 0 )

Change the expiration on an item.

If an expiry in the past is given then the key will immediately be expired

For large values written using WRITE_ALLOW_SEGMENTS, this only changes the TTL of the main segment list key. While lowering the TTL of the segment list key has the effect of functionally lowering the TTL of the key, it might leave unused blobs in cache for longer. Raising the TTL of such keys is not effective, since the expiration of a single segment key effectively expires the entire value.

Parameters
string$key
int$exptimeTTL or UNIX timestamp
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::WRITE_* constants (since 1.33)
Returns
bool Success (item found and updated)
Since
1.28

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 276 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ changeTTLMulti()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::changeTTLMulti ( array $keys,
$exptime,
$flags = 0 )

Change the expiration of multiple items.

See also
BagOStuff::changeTTL()
Parameters
string[]$keysList of keys
int$exptimeTTL or UNIX timestamp
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::WRITE_* constants (since 1.33)
Returns
bool Success (all items found and updated)
Since
1.34

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 357 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ delete()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::delete ( $key,
$flags = 0 )

Delete an item if it exists.

For large values set with WRITE_ALLOW_SEGMENTS, this only deletes the placeholder key with the segment list. To delete the underlying blobs, include WRITE_ALLOW_SEGMENTS in the flags for delete() as well. While deleting the segment list key has the effect of functionally deleting the key, it leaves unused blobs in storage.

The reason that this is not done automatically, is that to delete underlying blobs, requires first fetching the current segment list. Given that 99% of keys don't use WRITE_ALLOW_SEGMENTS, this would be wasteful.

Parameters
string$key
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::WRITE_* constants
Returns
bool Success (item deleted or not found)

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 227 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ deleteMulti()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::deleteMulti ( array $keys,
$flags = 0 )

Delete a batch of items.

This does not support WRITE_ALLOW_SEGMENTS to avoid excessive read I/O

WRITE_BACKGROUND can be used for bulk deletion where the response is not vital

Parameters
string[]$keysList of keys
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::WRITE_* constants
Returns
bool Success (items deleted and/or not found)
Since
1.33

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 347 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ deleteObjectsExpiringBefore()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::deleteObjectsExpiringBefore ( $timestamp,
callable $progress = null,
$limit = INF,
string $tag = null )

Delete all objects expiring before a certain date.

Parameters
string | int$timestampThe reference date in MW or TS_UNIX format
callable | null$progressOptional, a function which will be called regularly during long-running operations with the percentage progress as the first parameter. [optional]
int | float$limitMaximum number of keys to delete [default: INF]
string | null$tagTag to purge a single shard only. This is only supported when server tags are used in configuration.
Returns
bool Success; false if unimplemented

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 308 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ get()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::get ( $key,
$flags = 0 )

Get an item.

If the key includes a deterministic input hash (e.g. the key can only have the correct value) or complete staleness checks are handled by the caller (e.g. nothing relies on the TTL), then the READ_VERIFIED flag should be set. This lets tiered backends know they can safely upgrade a cached value to higher tiers using standard TTLs.

Parameters
string$key
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::READ_* constants [optional]
Returns
mixed Returns false on failure or if the item does not exist

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

◆ getMulti()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::getMulti ( array $keys,
$flags = 0 )

Get a batch of items.

Parameters
string[]$keysList of keys
int$flagsBitfield; supports READ_LATEST [optional]
Returns
mixed[] Map of (key => value) for existing keys

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 324 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ incrWithInit()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::incrWithInit ( $key,
$exptime,
$step = 1,
$init = null,
$flags = 0 )

Increase the value of the given key (no TTL change) if it exists or create it otherwise.

This will create the key with the value $init and TTL $exptime instead if not present. Callers should make sure that both ($init - $step) and $exptime are invariants for all operations to any given key. The value of $init should be at least that of $step.

The new value is returned, except if the WRITE_BACKGROUND flag is given, in which case the handler may choose to return true to indicate that the operation has been dispatched.

Parameters
string$keyKey built via makeKey() or makeGlobalKey()
int$exptimeTime-to-live (in seconds) or a UNIX timestamp expiration
int$stepAmount to increase the key value by [default: 1]
int | null$initValue to initialize the key to if it does not exist [default: $step]
int$flagsBit field of class WRITE_* constants [optional]
Returns
int|bool New value (or true if asynchronous) on success; false on failure
Since
1.24

◆ lock()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::lock ( $key,
$timeout = 6,
$exptime = 6,
$rclass = '' )

Acquire an advisory lock on a key string, exclusive to the caller.

Parameters
string$key
int$timeoutLock wait timeout; 0 for non-blocking [optional]
int$exptimeLock time-to-live in seconds; 1 day maximum [optional]
string$rclassIf this thread already holds the lock, and the lock was acquired using the same value for this parameter, then return true and use reference counting so that only the unlock() call from the outermost lock() caller actually releases the lock (note that only the outermost time-to-live is used) [optional]
Returns
bool Success

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.

Definition at line 286 of file MultiWriteBagOStuff.php.

◆ merge()

Wikimedia\ObjectCache\MultiWriteBagOStuff::merge ( $key,
callable $callback,
$exptime = 0,
$attempts = 10,
$flags = 0 )

Merge changes into the existing cache value (possibly creating a new one)

The callback function returns the new value given the current value (which will be false if not present), and takes the arguments: (this BagOStuff, cache key, current value, TTL). The TTL parameter is reference set to $exptime. It can be overridden in the callback. Nothing is stored nor deleted if the callback returns false.

Parameters
string$key
callable$callbackCallback method to be executed
int$exptimeEither an interval in seconds or a unix timestamp for expiry
int$attemptsThe amount of times to attempt a merge in case of failure
int$flagsBitfield of BagOStuff::WRITE_* constants
Returns
bool Success

Reimplemented from Wikimedia\ObjectCache\BagOStuff.
