skiplist

结构

skiplist提供了平均\(O(log n)\)的查找、插入和删除。zskiplistNode中使用柔性数组设计，每个节点存储了sds，level数组存储了各层指向其他节点的指针，最大层数为ZSKIPLIST_MAXLEVEL = 64。

/* ZSETs use a specialized version of Skiplists */
typedef struct zskiplistNode {
    sds ele;
    double score;
    struct zskiplistNode *backward;
    struct zskiplistLevel {
        struct zskiplistNode *forward;
        unsigned long span;
    } level[];
} zskiplistNode;

typedef struct zskiplist {
    struct zskiplistNode *header, *tail;
    unsigned long length;
    int level;
} zskiplist;

插入

先找到待插入的位置，查找的时候从顶层开始，在当前层尽可能的往前移动，每层都满足[header, update[i]]：(< score) or (== score and < ele))。最终的插入位置在update[i]之后。

要提的一点是redis的skiplist还维护了， * span，记录了两个节点间的距离。

* 寻找插入位置时，需要在每层都累加节点的`span`。
* 插入时，

x->level[i].span = update[i]->level[i].span - (rank[0] - rank[i]);
update[i]->level[i].span = (rank[0] - rank[i]) + 1;

  • forward，记录了节点的prev指针。

    在插入时，如果新节点的random level > zsl->level，则需要将update中多出来的level设置为header。

删除

和以插入相同的方式查找待删除节点。

        while (x->level[i].forward &&
                (x->level[i].forward->score < score ||
                    (x->level[i].forward->score == score &&
                     sdscmp(x->level[i].forward->ele,ele) < 0)))
        {
            x = x->level[i].forward;
        }
        update[i] = x;
    }
    /* We may have multiple elements with the same score, what we need
     * is to find the element with both the right score and object. */
    x = x->level[0].forward;
    if (x && score == x->score && sdscmp(x->ele,ele) == 0) {
        zslDeleteNode(zsl, x, update);
        if (!node)
            zslFreeNode(x);
        else
            *node = x;
        return 1;
    }
    return 0; /* not found */
}

删除时需要维护span和forward， * 如果当前层update[i]->level[i].forward == x， * span：

    累加上`x`的，并减1。

* `forward`：

    在每层指向待删除节点的下一个节点，`update[i]->level[i].forward = x->level[i].forward`。
