However note that in architectures supporting 64 bit unaligned
accesses memcpy(...,...,8) is likely translated to a simple
word memory movement anyway.

In the file “config.h”, the definition HAVE_ATOMIC is used to indicate
if an architecture on which redis is implemented supports atomic
synchronization primitives. Powerpc supports atomic synchronization
primitives, however, it is not listed as one of the architectures
supported in config.h. This patch adds the __powerpc__ to the list of
architectures supporting these primitives. The improvement of redis
due to the atomic synchronization on powerpc is significant,
around 30% to 40%, over the default implementation using pthreads.
This proposal adds __powerpc__ to the list of architectures designated
to support atomic builtins.
This cased a segfault in some Linux system and was GCC-specific.
Commit modified by @antirez:
1) Stripped away the part to set the proc title via config for now.
2) Handle initialization of setproctitle only when the replacement
is used.
3) Don't require GCC now that the attribute constructor is no
longer used.
This commit allows Redis to set a process name that includes the binding
address and the port number in order to make operations simpler.
Redis children processes doing AOF rewrites or RDB saving change the
name into redis-aof-rewrite and redis-rdb-bgsave respectively.
This in general makes harder to kill the wrong process because of an
error and makes simpler to identify saving children.
This feature was suggested by Arnaud GRANAL in the Redis Google Group,
Arnaud also pointed me to the setproctitle.c implementation includeed in
this commit.
This feature should work on all the Linux, OSX, and all the three major
BSD systems.
I don't know how to test for Open Solaris that has support for
backtrace() so for now removing the #ifdef that breaks compilation under
other Solaris flavors.
Config.h performs endianess detection including OS-specific headers to
define the endianess macros, or when this is not possible, checking the
processor type via ifdefs.
Sometimes when the OS-specific macro is included, only __BYTE_ORDER is
defined, while BYTE_ORDER remains undefined. There is code at the end of
config.h endianess detection in order to define the macros without the
underscore, but it was not working correctly.
This commit fixes endianess detection fixing Redis on Linux / PPC64 and
possibly other systems.
This fixes issue #539.
Basically if there is enough free memory the OS may buffer the RDB file
that the slave transfers on disk from the master. The file may
actually be flused on disk at once by the operating system when it gets
closed by Redis, causing the close system call to block for a long time.
This patch is a modified version of one provided by yoav-steinberg of
@garantiadata (the original version was posted in the issue #539
comments), and tries to flush the OS buffers incrementally (every 8 MB
of loaded data).
networking related stuff moved into networking.c
