ITL(Interested Transaction List)
ITL是位于数据块头部的事物槽列表,它是由一系列的ITS(Interested Transaction Slot,事物槽)组成,其初始的ITL Slot数量由INITRANS决定的,如果有足够的剩余空间,oracle也会根据需要动态的分配这些slot,直到受到空间限制或者达到MAXTRANS,注意10g以后MAXTRANS被废弃,默认为255。
ITL里的信息包括了xid,uba,flag,lck和scn/fsc,它是用来记录数据块上发生的事务相关信息,其中xid表示事物的id,uba表示对应到undo块上的地址,flag用来表示该条事务的状态,lck是块上的锁标记等。
我们使用dump命令来认识一下itl里的内容:

查看一下dump出来的内容:

可以看到dump出来的内容包括了事务id,对应的undo地址,事务的状态,锁信息等,通过这些信息就可以标识当前数据块的DML情况。
理解flg标识位含义:
---- = transaction is active, or committed pending cleanout
C--- = transaction has been committed and locks cleaned out
-B-- = this undo record contains the undo for this ITL entry
--U- = transaction committed (maybe long ago); SCN is an upper bound
---T = transaction was still active at block cleanout SCN
------ITL在ORACLE中的使用
当发出一条sql语句时,ORACLE会记录下这个时刻(SCN),然后在buffer cache中查找需要的BLOCK,或者从磁盘上读。当别的会话修改了数据,或者正在修改数据,就会在相应的block上记录ITL,此时ORACLE发现ITL中记录的SCN(Scn/Fsc)大于SELECT时刻的SCN,那么ORACLE就会根据ITL中的Uba找到UNDO信息获得该block的前镜像,然后在buffer cache 中构造出CR(consistent read)块,此时ORALCE也会检查构造出来的BLOCK中ITL记录的SCN(Scn/Fsc),如果SCN(Scn/Fsc)还大于select时刻的SCN,那么一直重复构造前镜像,然后ORACLE找到前镜像BLOCK中的ITL的SCN是否小于select的SCN,同时检查这个事物有没有提交或者回滚,如果没有,那么继续构造前镜像,直到找到需要的BLOCK,如果在构造前镜像的过程中所需的UNDO信息被覆盖了,就会报ORA-01555快照过旧的错误。
