# CacheKVStore specification | ||
|
||
A `CacheKVStore` is cache wrapper for a `KVStore`. It extends the operations of the `KVStore` to work with a write-back cache, allowing for reduced I/O operations and more efficient disposing of changes (e.g. after processing a failed transaction). | ||
|
||
The core goals the CacheKVStore seeks to solve are: | ||
|
||
* Buffer all writes to the parent store, so they can be dropped if they need to be reverted | ||
* Allow iteration over contiguous spans of keys | ||
* Act as a cache, improving access time for reads that have already been done (by replacing tree access with hashtable access, avoiding disk I/O) | ||
* Note: We actually fail to achieve this for iteration right now | ||
* Note: Need to consider this getting too large and dropping some cached reads | ||
* Make subsequent reads account for prior buffered writes | ||
* Write all buffered changes to the parent store | ||
|
||
We should revisit these goals with time (for instance it's unclear that all disk writes need to be buffered to the end of the block), but this is the current status. | ||
|
||
## Types and Structs | ||
|
||
```go | ||
type Store struct { | ||
mtx sync.Mutex | ||
cache map[string]*cValue | ||
deleted map[string]struct{} | ||
unsortedCache map[string]struct{} | ||
sortedCache *dbm.MemDB // always ascending sorted | ||
parent types.KVStore | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The Store struct wraps the underlying `KVStore` (`parent`) with additional data structures for implementing the cache. Mutex is used as IAVL trees (the `KVStore` in application) are not safe for concurrent use. | ||
|
||
### `cache` | ||
|
||
The main mapping of key-value pairs stored in cache. This map contains both keys that are cached from read operations as well as ‘dirty’ keys which map to a value that is potentially different than what is in the underlying `KVStore`. | ||
|
||
Values that are mapped to in `cache` are wrapped in a `cValue` struct, which contains the value and a boolean flag (`dirty`) representing whether the value has been written since the last write-back to `parent`. | ||
|
||
```go | ||
type cValue struct { | ||
value []byte | ||
dirty bool | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### `deleted` | ||
|
||
Key-value pairs that are to be deleted from `parent` are stored in the `deleted` map. Keys are mapped to an empty struct to implement a set. | ||
|
||
### `unsortedCache` | ||
|
||
Similar to `deleted`, this is a set of keys that are dirty and will need to be updated in the parent `KVStore` upon a write. Keys are mapped to an empty struct to implement a set. | ||
|
||
### `sortedCache` | ||
|
||
A database that will be populated by the keys in `unsortedCache` during iteration over the cache. The keys are always held in sorted order. | ||
|
||
## CRUD Operations and Writing | ||
|
||
The `Set`, `Get`, and `Delete` functions all call `setCacheValue()`, which is the only entry point to mutating `cache` (besides `Write()`, which clears it). | ||
|
||
`setCacheValue()` inserts a key-value pair into `cache`. Two boolean parameters, `deleted` and `dirty`, are passed in to flag whether the inserted key should also be inserted into the `deleted` and `dirty` sets. Keys will be removed from the `deleted` set if they are written to after being deleted. | ||
|
||
### `Get` | ||
|
||
`Get` first attempts to return the value from `cache`. If the key does not exist in `cache`, `parent.Get()` is called instead. This value from the parent is passed into `setCacheValue()` with `deleted=false` and `dirty=false`. | ||
|
||
### `Has` | ||
|
||
`Has` returns true if `Get` returns a non-nil value. As a result of calling `Get`, it may mutate the cache by caching the read. | ||
|
||
### `Set` | ||
|
||
New values are written by setting or updating the value of a key in `cache`. `Set` does not write to `parent`. | ||
|
||
Calls `setCacheValue()` with `deleted=false` and `dirty=true`. | ||
|
||
### `Delete` | ||
|
||
A value being deleted from the `KVStore` is represented with a `nil` value in `cache`, and an insertion of the key into the `deleted` set. `Delete` does not write to `parent`. | ||
|
||
Calls `setCacheValue()` with `deleted=true` and `dirty=true`. | ||
|
||
### `Write` | ||
|
||
Key-value pairs in the cache are written to `parent` in ascending order of their keys. | ||
|
||
A slice of all dirty keys in `cache` is made, then sorted in increasing order. These keys are iterated over to update `parent`. | ||
|
||
If a key is marked for deletion (checked with `isDeleted()`), then `parent.Delete()` is called. Otherwise, `parent.Set()` is called to update the underlying `KVStore` with the value in cache. | ||
|
||
## Iteration | ||
|
||
Efficient iteration over keys in `KVStore` is important for generating Merkle range proofs. Iteration over `CacheKVStore` requires producing all key-value pairs from the underlying `KVStore` while taking into account updated values from the cache. | ||
|
||
In the current implementation, there is no guarantee that all values in `parent` have been cached. As a result, iteration is achieved by interleaved iteration through both `parent` and the cache (failing to actually benefit from caching). | ||
|
||
[cacheMergeIterator](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/d8391cb6796d770b02448bee70b865d824e43449/store/cachekv/mergeiterator.go) implements functions to provide a single iterator with an input of iterators over `parent` and the cache. This iterator iterates over keys from both iterators in a shared lexicographic order, and overrides the value provided by the parent iterator if the same key is dirty or deleted in the cache. | ||
|
||
### Implementation Overview | ||
|
||
Iterators over `parent` and the cache are generated and passed into `cacheMergeIterator`, which returns a single, interleaved iterator. Implementation of the `parent` iterator is up to the underlying `KVStore`. The remainder of this section covers the generation of the cache iterator. | ||
|
||
Recall that `unsortedCache` is an unordered set of dirty cache keys. Our goal is to construct an ordered iterator over cache keys that fall within the `start` and `end` bounds requested. | ||
|
||
Generating the cache iterator can be decomposed into four parts: | ||
|
||
1. Finding all keys that exist in the range we are iterating over | ||
2. Sorting this list of keys | ||
3. Inserting these keys into `sortedCache` and removing them from `unsortedCache` | ||
4. Returning an iterator over `sortedCache` with the desired range | ||
|
||
Currently, the implementation for the first two parts is split into two cases, depending on the size of the unsorted cache. The two cases are as follows. | ||
|
||
If the size of `unsortedCache` is less than `minSortSize` (currently 1024), a linear time approach is taken to search over keys. | ||
|
||
```go | ||
n := len(store.unsortedCache) | ||
unsorted := make([]*kv.Pair, 0) | ||
|
||
if n < minSortSize { | ||
for key := range store.unsortedCache { | ||
if dbm.IsKeyInDomain(conv.UnsafeStrToBytes(key), start, end) { | ||
cacheValue := store.cache[key] | ||
unsorted = append(unsorted, &kv.Pair{Key: []byte(key), Value: cacheValue.value}) | ||
} | ||
} | ||
store.clearUnsortedCacheSubset(unsorted, stateUnsorted) | ||
return | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Here, we iterate through all the keys in `unsortedCache` (i.e., the dirty cache keys), collecting those within the requested range in an unsorted slice called `unsorted`. | ||
|
||
At this point, part 3. is achieved in `clearUnsortedCacheSubset()`. This function iterates through `unsorted`, removing each key from `unsortedCache`. Afterwards, `unsorted` is sorted. Lastly, it iterates through the now sorted slice, inserting key-value pairs into `sortedCache`. Any key marked for deletion is mapped to an arbitrary value (`[]byte{}`). | ||
|
||
In the case that the size of `unsortedCache` is larger than `minSortSize`, a linear time approach to finding keys within the desired range is too slow to use. Instead, a slice of all keys in `unsortedCache` is sorted, and binary search is used to find the beginning and ending indices of the desired range. This produces an already-sorted slice that is passed into the same `clearUnsortedCacheSubset()` function. An iota identifier (`sortedState`) is used to skip the sorting step in the function. | ||
|
||
Finally, part 4. is achieved with `memIterator`, which implements an iterator over the items in `sortedCache`. | ||
|
||
As of [PR #12885](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/12885), an optimization to the binary search case mitigates the overhead of sorting the entirety of the key set in `unsortedCache`. To avoid wasting the compute spent sorting, we should ensure that a reasonable amount of values are removed from `unsortedCache`. If the length of the range for iteration is less than `minSortedCache`, we widen the range of values for removal from `unsortedCache` to be up to `minSortedCache` in length. This amortizes the cost of processing elements across multiple calls. |
