NAME
Data::Stack::Shared - Shared-memory LIFO stack for Linux
SYNOPSIS
use Data::Stack::Shared;
my $stk = Data::Stack::Shared::Int->new(undef, 100);
$stk->push(42);
$stk->push(99);
say $stk->pop; # 99 (LIFO)
say $stk->peek; # 42
say $stk->size; # 1
# blocking with timeout
$stk->push_wait(42, 5.0);
my $val = $stk->pop_wait(5.0);
# string variant
my $ss = Data::Stack::Shared::Str->new(undef, 50, 256);
$ss->push("hello");
say $ss->pop;
# anonymous / memfd / file-backed
my $s = Data::Stack::Shared::Int->new('/tmp/stk.shm', 100);
$s = Data::Stack::Shared::Int->new(undef, 100);
$s = Data::Stack::Shared::Int->new_memfd("my_stk", 100);
my $fd = $s->memfd;
$s = Data::Stack::Shared::Int->new_from_fd($fd);
DESCRIPTION
LIFO stack in shared memory. CAS-based lock-free push/pop on an atomic top index. Futex blocking when empty or full.
Linux-only. Requires 64-bit Perl.
Variants
METHODS
Push / Pop
my $ok = $stk->push($val); # non-blocking
$ok = $stk->push_wait($val); # blocking (infinite)
$ok = $stk->push_wait($val, $timeout); # blocking with timeout
my $val = $stk->pop; # non-blocking, undef if empty
$val = $stk->pop_wait; # blocking (infinite)
$val = $stk->pop_wait($timeout); # blocking with timeout
$val = $stk->peek; # read top without removing
Status
my $n = $stk->size;
my $cap = $stk->capacity;
my $ok = $stk->is_empty;
my $ok = $stk->is_full;
$stk->clear; # empty (NOT concurrency-safe)
my $n = $stk->drain; # empty (concurrency-safe, returns count)
Common
my $p = $stk->path;
my $fd = $stk->memfd;
$stk->sync;
$stk->unlink;
my $s = $stk->stats;
eventfd
my $fd = $stk->eventfd;
$stk->eventfd_set($fd);
my $fd = $stk->fileno;
$stk->notify;
my $n = $stk->eventfd_consume;
STATS
stats() returns: size, capacity, pushes, pops, waits, timeouts, mmap_size.
SECURITY
The mmap region is writable by all processes that open it. Do not share backing files with untrusted processes.
