package bart

Go Reference GitHub release (latest SemVer) CI Coverage Status License: MIT Stand With Ukraine

Overview

package bart provides a Balanced-Routing-Table (BART).

BART is balanced in terms of memory consumption versus lookup time.

The lookup time is by a factor of ~2 slower on average as the routing algorithms ART, SMART, CPE, ... but reduces the memory consumption by an order of magnitude in comparison.

BART is a multibit-trie with fixed stride length of 8 bits, using the baseIndex function from the ART algorithm to build the complete-binary-tree (CBT) of prefixes for each stride.

The second key factor is popcount array compression at each stride level of the CBT prefix tree and backtracking along the CBT in O(k).

The CBT is implemented as a bitvector, backtracking is just a matter of fast cache friendly bitmask operations.

The child array at each stride level is also popcount compressed.

API

The API has changed in v0.4.2, 0.5.3, v0.6.3, v0.10.1, v0.11.0, v0.12.0, v0.12.6

  import "github.com/gaissmai/bart"
  
  type Table[V any] struct {
  	// Has unexported fields.
  }
    Table is an IPv4 and IPv6 routing table with payload V. The zero value is
    ready to use.

    The Table is safe for concurrent readers but not for concurrent readers
    and/or writers.

  func (t *Table[V]) Insert(pfx netip.Prefix, val V)
  func (t *Table[V]) Update(pfx netip.Prefix, cb func(val V, ok bool) V) (newVal V)

  func (t *Table[V]) Get(pfx netip.Prefix) (val V, ok bool)
  func (t *Table[V]) GetAndDelete(pfx netip.Prefix) (val V, ok bool)

  func (t *Table[V]) LookupPrefix(pfx netip.Prefix) (val V, ok bool)
  func (t *Table[V]) LookupPrefixLPM(pfx netip.Prefix) (lpm netip.Prefix, val V, ok bool)

  func (t *Table[V]) AllSorted4() func(yield func(pfx netip.Prefix, val V) bool)

CREDIT

Standing on the shoulders of giants.

Credits for many inspirations go to the clever guys at tailscale, to Daniel Lemire for the super-fast bitset package and to Donald E. Knuth for the ART routing algorithm and all the rest of his Art and for keeping important algorithms in the public domain!

And last but not least to the Go team who do a wonderful job!
