简介
AOF 持久化和 RDB 持久化的最主要区别在于，前者记录了数据的变更，而后者是保存了数据本身。本篇主要讲的是AOF 持久化，了解 AOF 的数据组织方式和运作机制。Redis 主要在 aof.c 中实现 AOF 的操作。
同样，AOF 持久化也会涉及文件的读写，会用到数据结构 rio。关于 rio 已经在上一个篇章已经讲述，在此不做展开。
AOF 数据组织方式
假设 redis 内存有「name:Jhon」的键值对，那么进行 AOF 持久化后，AOF 文件有如下内容：
*2 # 2 个参数
$6 # 第一个参数长度为6
SELECT # 第一个参数
$1 # 第二参数长度为1
8 # 第二参数
*3 # 3 个参数
$3 # 第一个参数长度为4
SET # 第一个参数
$4 # 第二参数长度为4
name # 第二个参数
$4 # 第三个参数长度为4
Jhon # 第二参数长度为4
所以对上面的内容进行恢复，能得到熟悉的一条 Redis 命令：SELECT 8;SET name Jhon. 可以想象的是，Redis 遍历内存数据集中的每个 key-value 对，依次写入磁盘中；Redis 启动的时候，从 AOF 文件中读取数据，恢复数据。
AOF 持久化运作机制
和 redis RDB 持久化运作机制不同，redis AOF 有后台执行和边服务边备份两种方式。

AOF 持久化运作机制
1）AOF 后台执行的方式和 RDB 有类似的地方，fork 一个子进程，主进程仍进行服务，子进程执行AOF 持久化，数据被dump 到磁盘上。与 RDB 不同的是，后台子进程持久化过程中，主进程会记录期间的所有数据变更（主进程还在服务），并存储在 server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 中；后台子进程结束后，Redis 更新缓存追加到 AOF 文件中，是 RDB 持久化所不具备的。
来说说更新缓存这个东西。Redis 服务器产生数据变更的时候，譬如 set name Jhon，不仅仅会修改内存数据集，也会记录此更新（修改）操作，记录的方式就是上面所说的数据组织方式。
更新缓存可以存储在 server.aof buf 中，你可以把它理解为一个小型临时中转站，所有累积的更新缓存都会先放入这里，它会在特定时机写入文件或者插入到server.aof -rewrite_buf_blocks 下链表（下面会详述）；server.aof buf 中的数据在 propagrate() 添加，在涉及数据更新的地方都会调用propagrate() 以累积变更。更新缓存也可以存储在 server.aof -rewrite_buf_blocks，这是一个元素类型为 struct aofrwblock 的链表，你可以把它理解为一个仓库，当后台有AOF 子进程的时候，会将累积的更新缓存（在 server.aof_buf 中）插入到链表中，而当 AOF 子进程结束，它会被整个写入到文件。两者是有关联的。
这里的意图即是不用每次出现数据变更的时候都触发一个写操作，可以将写操作先缓存到内存中，待到合适的时机写入到磁盘，如此避免频繁的写操作。当然，完全可以实现让数据变更及时更新到磁盘中。两种做法的好坏就是一种博弈了。
下面是后台执行的主要代码：
// 启动后台子进程，执行AOF 持久化操作。bgrewriteaofCommand()，startAppendOnly()，
// serverCron() 中会调用此函数
/* 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!
*/

刚才所说，AOF 在持久化结束后，持久化过程产生的数据变更也会追加到 AOF 文件中。如果有留意定时处理函数 serverCorn()：父进程会在子进程结束后，将 AOF 持久化过程中产生的数据变更，追加到 AOF 文件。这就是 backgroundRewriteDoneHandler() 要做的：将 server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 追加到 AOF 文件。
// 后台子进程结束后，Redis 更新缓存server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 追加到AOF 文件中
// 在AOF 持久化结束后会执行这个函数， backgroundRewriteDoneHandler() 主要工作是
// 将server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks，即AOF 缓存写入文件
/* A background append only file rewriting (BGREWRITEAOF) terminated its work.
* Handle this. */

redisLog(REDIS_WARNING,

}
......
}
// 将累积的更新缓存server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 同步到磁盘
/* Write the buffer (possibly composed of multiple blocks) into the specified
* fd. If no short write or any other error happens -1 is returned,
* otherwise the number of bytes written is returned. */
ssize_t aofRewriteBufferWrite(int fd) {
listNode *ln;
listIter li;
ssize_t count = 0;
listRewind(server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks,&li);
while((ln = listNext(&li))) {
aofrwblock *block = listNodeValue(ln);
ssize_t nwritten;
if (block->used) {
nwritten = write(fd,block->buf,block->used);
if (nwritten != block->used) {
if (nwritten == 0) errno = EIO;
return -1;
}
count += nwritten;
}
}
return count;
}
2）边服务边备份的方式，即 Redis 服务器会把所有的数据变更存储在 server.aof_buf 中，并在特定时机将更新缓存写入预设定的文件（server.aof_filename）。特定时机有三种：
进入事件循环之前
Redis 服务器定时程序 serverCron() 中
停止 AOF 策略的 stopAppendOnly() 中
Redis 无非是不想服务器突然崩溃终止，导致过多的数据丢失。Redis 默认是每隔固定时间进行一次边服务边备份，即隔固定时间将累积的变更的写入文件。
下面是边服务边执行 AOF 持久化的主要代码：
// 同步磁盘；将所有累积的更新server.aof_buf 写入磁盘
/* Write the append only file buffer on disk.
**
Since we are required to write the AOF before replying to the client,
* and the only way the client socket can get a write is entering when the
* the event loop, we accumulate all the AOF writes in a memory
* buffer and write it on disk using this function just before entering
* the event loop again.
**
About the 'force' argument:
**
When the fsync policy is set to 'everysec' we may delay the flush if there
* is still an fsync() going on in the background thread, since for instance
* on Linux write(2) will be blocked by the background fsync anyway.
* When this happens we remember that there is some aof buffer to be
* flushed ASAP, and will try to do that in the serverCron() function.
**
However if force is set to 1 we'll write regardless of the background
* fsync. */
void flushAppendOnlyFile(int force) {
ssize_t nwritten;
int sync_in_progress = 0;
// 无数据，无需同步到磁盘
if (sdslen(server.aof_buf) == 0) return;

细说更新缓存
上面两次提到了「更新缓存」，它即是 Redis 累积的数据变更。
更新缓存可以存储在 server.aof_buf 中，可以存储在 server.server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 连表中。他们的关系是：每一次数据变更记录都会写入 server.aof_buf 中，同时如果后台子进程在持久化，变更记录还会被写入 server.server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 中。server.aof_buf 会在特定时期写入指定文件，server.server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 会在后台持久化结束后追加到文件。
Redis 源码中是这么实现的：propagrate()->feedAppendOnlyFile()->aofRewriteBufferAppend()
注意，feedAppendOnlyFile() 会把更新添加到server.aof_buf；接下来会有一个判断，如果存在 AOF 子进程，则调用aofRewriteBufferAppend() 将server.aof_buf 中的所有数据插入到 server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 链表。这样，就能够理解为什么在AOF 持久化子进程结束后，父进程会将 server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 追加到 AOF 文件了。
// 向AOF 和从机发布数据更新
/* Propagate the specified command (in the context of the specified database id)
* to AOF and Slaves.
**
flags are an xor between:
* + REDIS_PROPAGATE_NONE (no propagation of command at all)

一副可以缓解视力疲劳的图片——AOF 持久化运作机制：
![[转载] Redis AOF 持久化策略_第2张图片](http://img.e-com-net.com/image/info10/83ae802339d746b69610d30dcfd552c9.jpg)
AOF 持久化运作机制
两种数据落地的方式，就是 AOF 的两个主线。因此，redis AOF 持久化机制有两条主线：后台执行和边服务边备份，抓住这两点就能理解 redis AOF 了。
这里有一个疑问，两条主线都会涉及文件的写：后台执行会写一个AOF 文件，边服务边备份也会写一个，以哪个为准？
后台持久化的数据首先会被写入“temp-rewriteaof-bg-%d.aof”，其中“%d”是AOF 子进程 id；待 AOF 子进程结束后，“temp-rewriteaof-bg-%d.aof”会被以追加的方式打开，继而写入 server.aof_rewrite_buf_blocks 中的更新缓存，最后“temp-rewriteaof-bg-%d.aof”文件被命名为 server.aof_filename，所以之前的名为 server.aof_filename 的文件会被删除，也就是说边服务边备份写入的文件会被删除。边服务边备份的数据会被一直写入到 server.aof_filename文件中。
因此，确实会产生两个文件，但是最后都会变成 server.aof_filename 文件。这里可能还有一个疑问，既然有了后台持久化，为什么还要边服务边备份？边服务边备份时间长了会产生数据冗余甚至备份过旧的数据，而后台持久化可以消除这些东西。看，这里是 Redis 的双保险。
AOF 恢复过程
AOF 的数据恢复过程设计很巧妙，它模拟一个 Redis 的服务过程。Redis 首先虚拟一个客户端，读取 AOF 文件恢复 Redis 命令和参数；接着过程就和服务客户端一样执行命令相应的函数，从而恢复数据，这样做的目的无非是提高代码的复用率。这些过程主要在 loadAppendOnlyFile() 中实现。
// 加载AOF 文件，恢复数据
/* Replay the append log file. On error REDIS_OK is returned. On non fatal
* error (the append only file is zero-length) REDIS_ERR is returned. On
* fatal error an error message is logged and the program exists. */
int loadAppendOnlyFile(char *filename) {
struct redisClient *fakeClient;
FILE *fp = fopen(filename,"r");
struct redis_stat sb;
int old_aof_state = server.aof_state;
long loops = 0;
// 文件大小不能为0
if (fp && redis_fstat(fileno(fp),&sb) != -1 && sb.st_size == 0) {
server.aof_current_size = 0;
fclose(fp);
return REDIS_ERR;
}
