METADATA ACCESS METHOD AND APPARATUS, DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND PROGRAM PRODUCT

原文（中国語）

A metadata access method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for efficient metadata retrieval through cache management. The method receives metadata query requests including target index information from processes and performs matching operations on a global cache file containing records with index information and slot identifiers. Each cache description array corresponds to memory blocks caching metadata. Upon successful matching, the target cache description array is accessed using the target slot identifier. The data state of target metadata is determined from the cache description array, and target address information indicating the location of the target memory block in shared memory is obtained and returned to the requesting process, enabling efficient shared memory-based metadata access.
