/*
  These functions handle keyblock cacheing for ISAM and MyISAM tables.

  One cache can handle many files.
  It must contain buffers of the same blocksize.
  init_key_cache() should be used to init cache handler.

  The free list (free_block_list) is a stack like structure.
  When a block is freed by free_block(), it is pushed onto the stack.
  When a new block is required it is first tried to pop one from the stack.
  If the stack is empty, it is tried to get a never-used block from the pool.
  If this is empty too, then a block is taken from the LRU ring, flushing it
  to disk, if neccessary. This is handled in find_key_block().
  With the new free list, the blocks can have three temperatures:
  hot, warm and cold (which is free). This is remembered in the block header
  by the enum BLOCK_TEMPERATURE temperature variable. Remembering the
  temperature is neccessary to correctly count the number of warm blocks,
  which is required to decide when blocks are allowed to become hot. Whenever
  a block is inserted to another (sub-)chain, we take the old and new
  temperature into account to decide if we got one more or less warm block.
  blocks_unused is the sum of never used blocks in the pool and of currently
  free blocks. blocks_used is the number of blocks fetched from the pool and
  as such gives the maximum number of in-use blocks at any time.

/*
  Some compilation flags have been added specifically for this module
  to control the following:
  - not to let a thread to yield the control when reading directly
    from key cache, which might improve performance in many cases;
    to enable this add:
    #define SERIALIZED_READ_FROM_CACHE
  - to set an upper bound for number of threads simultaneously
    using the key cache; this setting helps to determine an optimal
    size for hash table and improve performance when the number of
    blocks in the key cache much less than the number of threads
    accessing it;
    to set this number equal to <N> add
      #define MAX_THREADS <N>
  - to substitute calls of pthread_cond_wait for calls of
    pthread_cond_timedwait (wait with timeout set up);
    this setting should be used only when you want to trap a deadlock
    situation, which theoretically should not happen;
    to set timeout equal to <T> seconds add
      #define KEYCACHE_TIMEOUT <T>
  - to enable the module traps and to send debug information from
    key cache module to a special debug log add:
      #define KEYCACHE_DEBUG
    the name of this debug log file <LOG NAME> can be set through:
      #define KEYCACHE_DEBUG_LOG  <LOG NAME>
    if the name is not defined, it's set by default;
    if the KEYCACHE_DEBUG flag is not set up and we are in a debug
    mode, i.e. when ! defined(DBUG_OFF), the debug information from the
    module is sent to the regular debug log.

  Example of the settings:
    #define SERIALIZED_READ_FROM_CACHE
    #define MAX_THREADS   100
    #define KEYCACHE_TIMEOUT  1
    #define KEYCACHE_DEBUG
    #define KEYCACHE_DEBUG_LOG  "my_key_cache_debug.log"

  Initialize a key cache

  SYNOPSIS
    init_key_cache()
    keycache			pointer to a key cache data structure
    key_cache_block_size	size of blocks to keep cached data
    use_mem                 	total memory to use for the key cache
    division_limit		division limit (may be zero)
    age_threshold		age threshold (may be zero)

  RETURN VALUE
    number of blocks in the key cache, if successful,
    0 - otherwise.

  NOTES.
    if keycache->key_cache_inited != 0 we assume that the key cache
    is already initialized.  This is for now used by myisamchk, but shouldn't
    be something that a program should rely on!

    It's assumed that no two threads call this function simultaneously
    referring to the same key cache handle.

    The function first compares the memory size and the block size parameters

  RETURN VALUE

  NOTES.
    Every linking to the LRU chain decrements by one a special block
    counter (if it's positive). If the at_end parameter is TRUE the block is
    added either at the end of warm sub-chain or at the end of hot sub-chain.
    It is added to the hot subchain if its counter is zero and number of
    blocks in warm sub-chain is not less than some low limit (determined by
    the division_limit parameter). Otherwise the block is added to the warm
    sub-chain. If the at_end parameter is FALSE the block is always added
    at beginning of the warm sub-chain.
    Thus a warm block can be promoted to the hot sub-chain when its counter
    becomes zero for the first time.
    At the same time  the block at the very beginning of the hot subchain
    might be moved to the beginning of the warm subchain if it stays untouched
    for a too long time (this time is determined by parameter age_threshold).

/*
  Get a block for the file page requested by a keycache read/write operation;
  If the page is not in the cache return a free block, if there is none
  return the lru block after saving its buffer if the page is dirty.

  SYNOPSIS

    find_key_block()
      keycache            pointer to a key cache data structure
      file                handler for the file to read page from
      filepos             position of the page in the file
      init_hits_left      how initialize the block counter for the page
      wrmode              <-> get for writing
      page_st        out  {PAGE_READ,PAGE_TO_BE_READ,PAGE_WAIT_TO_BE_READ}

  RETURN VALUE
    Pointer to the found block if successful, 0 - otherwise

  NOTES.
    For the page from file positioned at filepos the function checks whether
    the page is in the key cache specified by the first parameter.
    If this is the case it immediately returns the block.
    If not, the function first chooses  a block for this page. If there is
    no not used blocks in the key cache yet, the function takes the block
    at the very beginning of the warm sub-chain. It saves the page in that
    block if it's dirty before returning the pointer to it.
    The function returns in the page_st parameter the following values:
      PAGE_READ         - if page already in the block,
      PAGE_TO_BE_READ   - if it is to be read yet by the current thread
      WAIT_TO_BE_READ   - if it is to be read by another thread
    If an error occurs THE BLOCK_ERROR bit is set in the block status.
    It might happen that there are no blocks in LRU chain (in warm part) -
    all blocks  are unlinked for some read/write operations. Then the function
    waits until first of this operations links any block back.

/*
  Read into a key cache block buffer from disk.

  SYNOPSIS

    read_block()
      keycache            pointer to a key cache data structure
      block               block to which buffer the data is to be read
      read_length         size of data to be read
      min_length          at least so much data must be read
      primary             <-> the current thread will read the data

  RETURN VALUE
    None

  NOTES.
    The function either reads a page data from file to the block buffer,
    or waits until another thread reads it. What page to read is determined
    by a block parameter - reference to a hash link for this page.
    If an error occurs THE BLOCK_ERROR bit is set in the block status.
    We do not report error when the size of successfully read
    portion is less than read_length, but not less than min_length.

  Read a block of data from a cached file into a buffer;

      return_buffer       return pointer to the key cache buffer with the data

  RETURN VALUE
    Returns address from where the data is placed if sucessful, 0 - otherwise.

  NOTES.
    The function ensures that a block of data of size length from file
    positioned at filepos is in the buffers for some key cache blocks.
    Then the function either copies the data into the buffer buff, or,
    if return_buffer is TRUE, it just returns the pointer to the key cache
    buffer with the data.
    Filepos must be a multiple of 'block_length', but it doesn't
    have to be a multiple of key_cache_block_size;
