1. RDB实现

采用fork一个子进程的方式实现，子进程copy on write.

子进程工作：

设置进程名称
设置cpu亲和
调用rdbSave函数进行实际的数据dump
成功后将子进程的一些统计信息发回父进程

父进程工作：

检查是否有活跃的子进程，如果有不执行
开启父子进程通信管道openChildInfoPipe
fork子进程
更新server对象的rdb信息

rdb.c : int rdbSaveBackground(char *filename, rdbSaveInfo *rsi)

int rdbSaveBackground(char *filename, rdbSaveInfo *rsi) {
    pid_t childpid;

    if (hasActiveChildProcess()) return C_ERR;

    server.dirty_before_bgsave = server.dirty;
    server.lastbgsave_try = time(NULL);
    openChildInfoPipe();

    if ((childpid = redisFork(CHILD_TYPE_RDB)) == 0) {
        int retval;

        /* Child */
        redisSetProcTitle("redis-rdb-bgsave");
        redisSetCpuAffinity(server.bgsave_cpulist);
        retval = rdbSave(filename,rsi);
        if (retval == C_OK) {
            sendChildCOWInfo(CHILD_TYPE_RDB, "RDB");
        }
        exitFromChild((retval == C_OK) ? 0 : 1);
    } else {
        /* Parent */
        if (childpid == -1) {
            closeChildInfoPipe();
            server.lastbgsave_status = C_ERR;
            serverLog(LL_WARNING,"Can't save in background: fork: %s",
                strerror(errno));
            return C_ERR;
        }
        serverLog(LL_NOTICE,"Background saving started by pid %d",childpid);
        server.rdb_save_time_start = time(NULL);
        server.rdb_child_pid = childpid;
        server.rdb_child_type = RDB_CHILD_TYPE_DISK;
        updateDictResizePolicy();
        return C_OK;
    }
    return C_OK; /* unreached */
}

rdb.c : int rdbSave(char *filename, rdbSaveInfo *rsi)

/* Save the DB on disk. Return C_ERR on error, C_OK on success. */
int rdbSave(char *filename, rdbSaveInfo *rsi) {
    char tmpfile[256];
    char cwd[MAXPATHLEN]; /* Current working dir path for error messages. */
    FILE *fp = NULL;
    rio rdb;
    int error = 0;

    snprintf(tmpfile,256,"temp-%d.rdb", (int) getpid());
    fp = fopen(tmpfile,"w");
    if (!fp) {
        char *cwdp = getcwd(cwd,MAXPATHLEN);
        serverLog(LL_WARNING,
            "Failed opening the RDB file %s (in server root dir %s) "
            "for saving: %s",
            filename,
            cwdp ? cwdp : "unknown",
            strerror(errno));
        return C_ERR;
    }

    rioInitWithFile(&rdb,fp);
    startSaving(RDBFLAGS_NONE);

    if (server.rdb_save_incremental_fsync)
        rioSetAutoSync(&rdb,REDIS_AUTOSYNC_BYTES);

    if (rdbSaveRio(&rdb,&error,RDBFLAGS_NONE,rsi) == C_ERR) {
        errno = error;
        goto werr;
    }

    /* Make sure data will not remain on the OS's output buffers */
    if (fflush(fp)) goto werr;
    if (fsync(fileno(fp))) goto werr;
    if (fclose(fp)) { fp = NULL; goto werr; }
    fp = NULL;
    
    /* Use RENAME to make sure the DB file is changed atomically only
     * if the generate DB file is ok. */
    if (rename(tmpfile,filename) == -1) {
        char *cwdp = getcwd(cwd,MAXPATHLEN);
        serverLog(LL_WARNING,
            "Error moving temp DB file %s on the final "
            "destination %s (in server root dir %s): %s",
            tmpfile,
            filename,
            cwdp ? cwdp : "unknown",
            strerror(errno));
        unlink(tmpfile);
        stopSaving(0);
        return C_ERR;
    }

    serverLog(LL_NOTICE,"DB saved on disk");
    server.dirty = 0;
    server.lastsave = time(NULL);
    server.lastbgsave_status = C_OK;
    stopSaving(1);
    return C_OK;

werr:
    serverLog(LL_WARNING,"Write error saving DB on disk: %s", strerror(errno));
    if (fp) fclose(fp);
    unlink(tmpfile);
    stopSaving(0);
    return C_ERR;
}

显示调用save命令，可以看到如果当前有在运行的rdb子进程，就会直接返回错误。如果可执行，则在主进程进行rdbSave操作，这个操作会阻塞其它命令执行。

void saveCommand(client *c) {
    if (server.rdb_child_pid != -1) {
        addReplyError(c,"Background save already in progress");
        return;
    }
    rdbSaveInfo rsi, *rsiptr;
    rsiptr = rdbPopulateSaveInfo(&rsi);
    if (rdbSave(server.rdb_filename,rsiptr) == C_OK) {
        addReply(c,shared.ok);
    } else {
        addReply(c,shared.err);
    }
}

bgsave会开启fork子进程进行处理

/* BGSAVE [SCHEDULE] */
void bgsaveCommand(client *c) {
    int schedule = 0;

    /* The SCHEDULE option changes the behavior of BGSAVE when an AOF rewrite
     * is in progress. Instead of returning an error a BGSAVE gets scheduled. */
    if (c->argc > 1) {
        if (c->argc == 2 && !strcasecmp(c->argv[1]->ptr,"schedule")) {
            schedule = 1;
        } else {
            addReply(c,shared.syntaxerr);
            return;
        }
    }

    rdbSaveInfo rsi, *rsiptr;
    rsiptr = rdbPopulateSaveInfo(&rsi);

    if (server.rdb_child_pid != -1) {
        addReplyError(c,"Background save already in progress");
    } else if (hasActiveChildProcess()) {
        if (schedule) {
            server.rdb_bgsave_scheduled = 1;
            addReplyStatus(c,"Background saving scheduled");
        } else {
            addReplyError(c,
            "Another child process is active (AOF?): can't BGSAVE right now. "
            "Use BGSAVE SCHEDULE in order to schedule a BGSAVE whenever "
            "possible.");
        }
    } else if (rdbSaveBackground(server.rdb_filename,rsiptr) == C_OK) {
        addReplyStatus(c,"Background saving started");
    } else {
        addReply(c,shared.err);
    }
}

2. AOF实现

aof有几种

实时写
命令调用写，如BGREWRITEAOF 和 REWRITEAOF，类似rdb的save命令

以下是BGREWRITEAOF的执行函数，类似上面的bgsave

aof.c: int rewriteAppendOnlyFileBackground(void)

/* This is how rewriting of the append only file in background works:
 *
 * 1) The user calls BGREWRITEAOF
 * 2) Redis calls this function, that forks():
 *    2a) the child rewrite the append only file in a temp file.
 *    2b) the parent accumulates differences in server.aof_rewrite_buf.
 * 3) When the child finished '2a' exists.
 * 4) The parent will trap the exit code, if it's OK, will append the
 *    data accumulated into server.aof_rewrite_buf into the temp file, and
 *    finally will rename(2) the temp file in the actual file name.
 *    The the new file is reopened as the new append only file. Profit!
 */
int rewriteAppendOnlyFileBackground(void) {
    pid_t childpid;

    if (hasActiveChildProcess()) return C_ERR;
    if (aofCreatePipes() != C_OK) return C_ERR;
    openChildInfoPipe();
    if ((childpid = redisFork(CHILD_TYPE_AOF)) == 0) {
        char tmpfile[256];

        /* Child */
        redisSetProcTitle("redis-aof-rewrite");
        redisSetCpuAffinity(server.aof_rewrite_cpulist);
        snprintf(tmpfile,256,"temp-rewriteaof-bg-%d.aof", (int) getpid());
        if (rewriteAppendOnlyFile(tmpfile) == C_OK) {
            sendChildCOWInfo(CHILD_TYPE_AOF, "AOF rewrite");
            exitFromChild(0);
        } else {
            exitFromChild(1);
        }
    } else {
        /* Parent */
        if (childpid == -1) {
            closeChildInfoPipe();
            serverLog(LL_WARNING,
                "Can't rewrite append only file in background: fork: %s",
                strerror(errno));
            aofClosePipes();
            return C_ERR;
        }
        serverLog(LL_NOTICE,
            "Background append only file rewriting started by pid %d",childpid);
        server.aof_rewrite_scheduled = 0;
        server.aof_rewrite_time_start = time(NULL);
        server.aof_child_pid = childpid;
        updateDictResizePolicy();
        /* We set appendseldb to -1 in order to force the next call to the
         * feedAppendOnlyFile() to issue a SELECT command, so the differences
         * accumulated by the parent into server.aof_rewrite_buf will start
         * with a SELECT statement and it will be safe to merge. */
        server.aof_selected_db = -1;
        replicationScriptCacheFlush();
        return C_OK;
    }
    return C_OK; /* unreached */
}
