Abstract

Storage management techniques involve determining, if it is determined that lock information associated with a lock operation performed on an object is to be inserted into a storage device, a target digest for representing the lock information; determining whether an idle index not associated with a historical digest exists in an index array for indicating a plurality of storage positions in the storage device; and inserting, if it is determined that an idle index exists in the index array, the lock information into a target storage position in the plurality of storage positions by associating the target digest with the idle index. Accordingly, lock information can be quickly inserted and cleared, thereby improving the system performance.
