From: Matthew Sakai <msakai@redhat.com>

The top-level deduplication index brings all the earlier components
together. The top-level index creates the separate zone structures
that enable the index to handle several requests in parallel, handles
dispatching requests to the right zones and components, and
coordinates metadata to ensure that it remain consistent. It also
coordinates recovery in the event of an unexpected index failure.

If sparse caching is enabled, the top-level index also handles the
coordination required by the sparse chapter index cache, which (unlike
most index structures) is shared among all zones.

+ * When searching for deduplication records, the index first searches the volume index, and then
+ * searches the chapter index for the relevant chapter. If the chapter has been fully committed to
+ * storage, the chapter pages are loaded into the page cache. If the chapter has not yet been
+ * committed (either the open chapter or a recently closed one), the index searches the in-memory
+ * representation of the chapter. Finally, if the volume index does not find a record and the index
+ * is sparse, the index will search the sparse cache.
+ *
+ * The index send two kinds of messages to coordinate between zones: chapter close messages for the
+ * chapter writer, and sparse cache barrier messages for the sparse cache.
+ *
+ * The chapter writer is responsible for committing chapters of records to storage. Since zones can
+ * get different numbers of records, some zones may fall behind others. Each time a zone fills up
+ * its available space in a chapter, it informs the chapter writer that the chapter is complete,
+ * and also informs all other zones that it has closed the chapter. Each other zone will then close
+ * the chapter immediately, regardless of how full it is, in order to minimize skew between zones.
+ * Once every zone has closed the chapter, the chapter writer will commit that chapter to storage.
+ *
+ * The last zone to close the chapter also removes the oldest chapter from the volume index.
+ * Although that chapter is invalid for zones that have moved on, the existence of the open chapter
+ * means that those zones will never ask the volume index about it. No zone is allowed to get more
+ * than one chapter ahead of any other. If a zone is so far ahead that it tries to close another
+ * chapter before the previous one has been closed by all zones, it is forced to wait.
+ *
+ * The sparse cache relies on having the same set of chapter indexes available to all zones. When a
+ * request wants to add a chapter to the sparse cache, it sends a barrier message to each zone
+ * during the triage stage that acts as a rendezvous. Once every zone has reached the barrier and
+ * paused its operations, the cache membership is changed and each zone is then informed that it
+ * can proceed. More details can be found in the sparse cache documentation.
+ *
+ * If a sparse cache has only one zone, it will not create a triage queue, but it still needs the
+ * barrier message to change the sparse cache membership, so the index simulates the message by
+ * invoking the handler directly.

+ * Since the cache is small, it is implemented as a simple array of cache entries. Searching for a
+ * specific virtual chapter is implemented as a linear search. The cache replacement policy is
+ * least-recently-used (LRU). Again, the small size of the cache allows the LRU order to be
+ * maintained by shifting entries in an array list.
+ *
+ * Changing the contents of the cache requires the coordinated participation of all zone threads
+ * via the careful use of barrier messages sent to all the index zones by the triage queue worker
+ * thread. The critical invariant for coordination is that the cache membership must not change
+ * between updates, so that all calls to uds_sparse_cache_contains() from the zone threads must all
+ * receive the same results for every virtual chapter number. To ensure that critical invariant,
+ * state changes such as "that virtual chapter is no longer in the volume" and "skip searching that
+ * chapter because it has had too many cache misses" are represented separately from the cache
+ * membership information (the virtual chapter number).
+ *
+ * As a result of this invariant, we have the guarantee that every zone thread will call
+ * uds_update_sparse_cache() once and exactly once to request a chapter that is not in the cache,
+ * and the serialization of the barrier requests from the triage queue ensures they will all
+ * request the same chapter number. This means the only synchronization we need can be provided by
+ * a pair of thread barriers used only in the uds_update_sparse_cache() call, providing a critical
+ * section where a single zone thread can drive the cache update while all the other zone threads
+ * are known to be blocked, waiting in the second barrier. Outside that critical section, all the
+ * zone threads implicitly hold a shared lock. Inside it, the thread for zone zero holds an
+ * exclusive lock. No other threads may access or modify the cache entries.
+ *
+ * Chapter statistics must only be modified by a single thread, which is also the zone zero thread.
+ * All fields that might be frequently updated by that thread are kept in separate cache-aligned
+ * structures so they will not cause cache contention via "false sharing" with the fields that are
+ * frequently accessed by all of the zone threads.
+ *
+ * The LRU order is managed independently by each zone thread, and each zone uses its own list for
+ * searching and cache membership queries. The zone zero list is used to decide which chapter to
+ * evict when the cache is updated, and its search list is copied to the other threads at that
+ * time.
+ *
+ * The virtual chapter number field of the cache entry is the single field indicating whether a
+ * chapter is a member of the cache or not. The value NO_CHAPTER is used to represent a null or
+ * undefined chapter number. When present in the virtual chapter number field of a
+ * cached_chapter_index, it indicates that the cache entry is dead, and all the other fields of
+ * that entry (other than immutable pointers to cache memory) are undefined and irrelevant. Any
+ * cache entry that is not marked as dead is fully defined and a member of the cache, and
+ * uds_sparse_cache_contains() will always return true for any virtual chapter number that appears
+ * in any of the cache entries.
+ *
+ * A chapter index that is a member of the cache may be excluded from searches between calls to
+ * uds_update_sparse_cache() in two different ways. First, when a chapter falls off the end of the
+ * volume, its virtual chapter number will be less that the oldest virtual chapter number. Since
+ * that chapter is no longer part of the volume, there's no point in continuing to search that
+ * chapter index. Once invalidated, that virtual chapter will still be considered a member of the
+ * cache, but it will no longer be searched for matching names.
+ *
+ * The second mechanism is a heuristic based on keeping track of the number of consecutive search
+ * misses in a given chapter index. Once that count exceeds a threshold, the skip_search flag will
+ * be set to true, causing the chapter to be skipped when searching the entire cache, but still
+ * allowing it to be found when searching for a hook in that specific chapter. Finding a hook will
+ * clear the skip_search flag, once again allowing the non-hook searches to use that cache entry.
+ * Again, regardless of the state of the skip_search flag, the virtual chapter must still
+ * considered to be a member of the cache for uds_sparse_cache_contains().

+ *
+ * The most important property of this cache is the absence of synchronization for read operations.
+ * Safe concurrent access to the cache by the zone threads is controlled by the triage queue and
