CoalescingRingBuffer 分析

Coalescing Ring Buffer 解决的问题是：有效地缓冲生产者和消费者线程之间的消息，在这种情况下，只有给定主题的最新值才是感兴趣的，所有其他的消息都可以被立即丢弃。举个例子：

一个自动交易系统会一直监听股票交易所或者数字货币交易所的价格变动，以便找到价格估值较低的股票或数字货币，这些数据从交易所传来之后很可能被放入队列等待处理，但是在决定任何一个资产是否值得投资时，需要一定的时间，但是这个时候可能旧的价格已经被更新了，产生了最新的价格，而旧的价格就不是我们想要的了，因为只对最新的价格感兴趣，所以我们期望把旧的价格更新为新的价格，丢弃掉旧的额价格；Coalescing Ring Buffer 就是来解决这个问题的，它是一个缓冲区，可以容纳传入的价格更新，并检查是否可以更新一个现有的值，而不是在消费者准备好处理它们之前增长缓冲区。

Coalescing Ring Buffer 借鉴了一些 Disruptor 的设计原则：

1. 使用数组作为数据结构，因为它们的内存位置

2. 使用无锁并发，它避免了内核仲裁

3. 采用单写原则，避免 cache line 争用
