我试图使用 union 来更新一个线程中的字段，然后在另一个线程中读取所有字段。在实际系统中，我有互斥锁来确保一切都是安全的。问题出在 fieldB 上，在我不得不更改它之前，fieldB 被声明为类似于字段 A 和 C。但是，由于第三方驱动程序，fieldB 必须与页面边界对齐。当我将字段 B 更改为使用 valloc 分配时，我遇到了问题。

问题: 1) 有没有办法在页面边界上静态声明 fieldB 对齐。基本上做与 valloc 相同的事情，但在堆栈上？

2) 当字段 B 或任何字段正在堆上分配时，是否可以进行 union ？不确定这是否合法。

这是我正在试验的一个简单的测试程序。这不起作用，除非您像字段 A 和 C 一样声明字段 B，并在公共(public)方法中进行明显的更改。

      Test(void)
      {
         // field B must be alligned to page boundary
         // Is there a way to do this on the stack???
         this->field.fieldB = (unsigned char*) valloc(10);
      };

      //I know this is bad, this class is being treated like 
      //a global structure. Its self contained in another class.

   strncpy((char*) test.PointerToFieldC(), "2345678901", 10);

   char dummy[11];
   dummy[10] = '\0';

   strncpy(dummy, (char*) test.PointerToFieldA(), 10);
   printf("%s\n", dummy);

   strncpy(dummy, (char*) test.PointerToFieldB(), 10);
   printf("%s\n", dummy);

   strncpy(dummy, (char*) test.PointerToFieldC(), 10);
   printf("%s\n", dummy);

   char allFields[31];
   allFields[30] = '\0';
   strncpy(allFields, (char*) test.PointerToAllFields(), 30);
   printf("%s\n", allFields);

   return 0;

最佳答案

我不认为您可以将 fieldB 声明为指针并获得所需的行为(假设我正确理解了问题)。为了使 union 在您使用时有意义，您需要在 union 中将其声明为数组。

我很好奇是否可以重载类的 new 运算符以强制特定成员位于页面边界上。我很快就拼凑了重载的运算符来做到这一点。它会导致每次分配一个完整的额外页面。它找到该字段所在位置的偏移量，然后按该量调整地址。由于分配了额外的内存(假设我计算正确)，这将是安全的。不过很丑。

它将分配偏移量填充到类中的一个成员中，以便它知道要“取消偏移”指针以释放它的量。这真是可怕的代码。作为实验似乎还可以，但在生产代码中就不太好了。

#define PAGE_SIZE 0x1000

class test
{
public:
   int allocoffset;
   void* operator new( size_t );
   void operator delete( void* );
    union
      {
         __declspec( align(4096)) struct
         {
            unsigned char  fieldA[10];

            //This field has to be alligned to page boundary
            //Is there way to be declared on the stack
            unsigned char  fieldB[10];
            unsigned char  fieldC[10];
         } field;

         unsigned char allFields[30];
      };
};

void* test::operator new(size_t size)
{
   // Allocate an entire extra page so we can offset it by any amount
   // less than the page size to ensure alignment of fieldB
   unsigned char *p = (unsigned char*)malloc( sizeof( test ) + PAGE_SIZE );
   uintptr_t addr;
   uintptr_t diff;

   std::cout << "new " << (void*)p << std::endl;

   // now offset the returned memory by the amount needed to align
   // fieldB on a page boundary.
   addr = (uintptr_t)p + (uintptr_t)( offsetof( test, field.fieldB ));

   diff = PAGE_SIZE - ( addr & (PAGE_SIZE - 1 ));

   p += diff;

   ((test*)p)->allocoffset = diff;

   return p;
}

void test::operator delete( void *p )
{
   // offset by appropriate amount that we allocated it by
   p = (void*)( (unsigned char*)p - ((test*)p)->allocoffset );
   std::cout << "delete " << p << std::endl;
   free(p);
}

int main()
{
   test *t;

   t = new test;

   std::cout << "allocation offset " << t->allocoffset << std::endl;
   std::cout << "address of fieldB " << (void*)&t->field.fieldB << std::endl;

   delete t;
}

这是示例输出:

new 00353FA0
allocation offset 86
address of fieldB 00355000
delete 00353FA0
