[JGIT PATCH] Fix WindowCacheGetTest.testCache_TooSmallLimit failures

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ever since 2d77d30b5f when I rewrote WindowCache we have been seeing
random failures inside of the TooSmallLimit test case.

These test failures have been occurring because the cache contained
more open bytes than it was configured to permit.

The cache was permitted to open more bytes than its configured limit
because the eviction routine was always skipping the last bucket
under some conditions.  If the cache table was sized the same as its
evictBatch, which happens for any fairly small table, the eviction
routine broke too early if it started at a non-zero position in the
table and wrapped around during its search.  By breaking too early
the routine did not actually perform an eviction, leaving windows
open it should have closed.

  I think this fixes it.
