We have records: R0(0,1); R1(1,2); R2(2,3); R3(3,4); R4(4,5); R5(5,6); R6(6,7) R7(7,8); Steps: +R4, +R3, +R5, +R2, +R6, +R1, +R0, +R7, -R1 state after addind recors: +R4, +R3, +R5, +R2, +R6, +R1, +R0, +R7, h_table | chain 0 -> R0 -> R7 1 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 2 -> R2 -> R6 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 3 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 4 -> R4 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 5 -> R4 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 6 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 7 -> R6 -> R1 -> R0 -> R7 8 -> R7 As you can see, last added record R7 is part of each chain. Actually, it is only one chain and few sub-chains. Remove R1 (it will be devided in few steps -- remove R1 from chains h_table[1] and h_table[2] h_table | chain 0 -> R0 -> R7 1 -> R0 -> R7 2 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 -> R7 3 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 -> R7 4 -> R4 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 -> R7 5 -> R4 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 -> R7 6 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 -> R7 7 -> R6 -> R0 -> R7 8 -> R7 -- there isn't problem with the first entry in chains -- marking records for removing in chain h_table[1] Keep : Remove: (R0, R7) -- marking records for removing in chain h_table[2] Keep : Remove: (R0, R7); (R2, R6); (R6, R0); -- removing records from chain h_table[1] What we need to do here is check if any of those to remove is in the list to keep, if it is strike it out from the remove list. We start with (R0, R7) in the removal-list and check it against the keep-list. It doesn't match, so we go on and link R0->(R7->next) R0-> MC_INVALID_VAL Current state: h_table | chain 0 -> R0 1 -> R0 2 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 3 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 4 -> R4 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 5 -> R4 -> R3 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 6 -> R5 -> R2 -> R6 -> R0 7 -> R6 -> R0 8 -> R7 In this state, record R7 is *not* reachable with hash key "7" Revalidation of chain is very dangerous. The main problem is with single chain (link-list) for different hash keys and situation is much more complicated with higher collision of hash keys. This is a reason why I proposed to have two next pointers in record (rec->next1, rec->next2) LS _______________________________________________ sssd-devel mailing list sssd-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
