81
82=head1 THE AnyEvent::FastPing CLASS
83
84The AnyEvent::FastPing class represents a single "pinger". A "pinger"
85comes with its own thread to send packets in the background, a rate-limit
86machinery and separate idle/receive callbacks.
87
88The recommended workflow (there are others) is this: 1. create a new
89AnyEvent::FastPing object 2. configure the address lists and ranges to
90ping, also configure an idle callback and optionally a receive callback
913. C<start> the pinger.
92
93When the pinger has finished pinging all the configured addresses it will
94call the idle callback.
95
96The pinging process works like this: every range has a minimum interval
97between sends, which is used to limit the rate at which hosts in that
98range are being pinged. Distinct ranges are independent of each other,
99which is why there is a per-pinger "global" minimum interval as well.
100
101The pinger sends pings as fats as possible, while both obeying the pinger
102rate limit as well as range limits.
103
104When a range is exhausted, it is removed. When all ranges are exhausted,
105the pinger waits another C<max_rtt> seconds and then exits, causing the
106idle callback to trigger.
107
108Performance: On my 2 GHz Opteron system with a pretty average nvidia
109gigabit network card I can ping around 60k to 200k addresses per second,
110depending on routing decisions.
111
112Example: ping 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.15 with at most 100 packets/s, and
11311.0.0.1-11.0.255.255 with at most 1000 packets/s. Also ping the IPv6
114loopback address 5 times as fast as possible. Do not, however, exceed 1000
115packets/s overall. Also dump each received reply.

186=item $pinger->on_recv ($callback->([[$host, $rtt], ...]))
187
188Registers a callback to be called for ping replies. If no callback has
189been registered than ping replies will be ignored, otherwise this module
190calculates the round trip time, in seconds, for each reply and calls this
191callback.
192
193The callback receives a single argument, which is an array reference
194with an entry for each reply packet (the replies will be batched for
195efficiency). Each member in the array reference is again an array
196reference with exactly two members: the binary host address (4 octets for
197IPv4, 16 for IPv6) and the approximate round trip time, in seconds.
198
199The replies will be passed to the callback as soon as they arrive, and
200this callback can be called many times with batches of replies.
201
202The receive callback will be called whenever a suitable reply arrives,
203whether generated by this pinger or not, whether this pinger is started
204or not. The packets will have a unique 64 bit ID to distinguish them from
205other pinger objects and other generators, but this doesn't help against
206malicious replies.
207
208Note that very high packet rates can overwhelm your process, causing
209replies to be dropped (configure your kernel with long receive queues for
210raw sockets if this is a problem).
211
212Example: register a callback which simply dumps the received data.
213
214 use AnyEvent::Socket;
215
216 $pinger->on_recv (sub {
217 for (@{ $_[0] }) {
218 printf "%s %g\n", (AnyEvent::Socket::format_address $_->[0]), $_->[1];
219 }
220 });
221
222Example: a single ping reply with payload of 1 from C<::1> gets passed

239is, it has been started, has exhausted all ping ranges and waited for

241instantly add new ranges, if it so desires.

129Algorithm: Each range has an associated "next time to send packet" 273=item $pinger->add_range ($lo, $hi[, $interval])
130time. The algorithm loops as long as there are ranges with hosts to be
131pinged and always serves the range with the most urgent packet send
132time. It will at most send one packet every C<$send_interval> seconds.
133 274
134This will ensure that pings to the same range are nicely interleaved with 275Ping the IPv4 (or IPv6, but see below) address range, starting at binary
135other ranges - this can help reduce per-subnet bandwidth while maintaining 276address C<$lo> and ending at C<$hi> (both C<$lo> and C<$hi> will be
136an overall high packet rate. 277pinged), generating no more than one ping per C<$interval> seconds (or as
278fast as possible if omitted).
137 279
138The algorithm to send each packet is O(log n) on the number of ranges, so 280You can convert IP addresses from text to binary form by
281using C<AnyEvent::Util::parse_address>, C<Socket::inet_aton>,
282C<Socket6::inet_pton> or any other method that you like :)

145depending on routing decisions. 291you want to ping a number of IPv6 hosts, better specify them individually
292using the C<add_hosts> method.
146 293
147Example: ping 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.15 with at most 100 packets/s, and 294=item $pinger->add_hosts ([$host...], $interval, $interleave)
14811.0.0.1-11.0.255.255 with at most 1000 packets/s. Do not, however, exceed
1491000 packets/s overall:
150 295
151 my $done = AnyEvent->condvar; 296Similar to C<add_range>, but uses a list of single addresses instead. The
297list is specified as an array reference as first argument. Each entry in
298the array should be a binary host address, either IPv4 or IPv6. If all
299addresses are IPv4 addresses, then a compact IPv4-only format will be used
300to store the list internally.

305lists are generated in a way that results in clustering - first all
306addresses from one subnet, then from the next, and so on. To avoid this,
307you can specify an interleave factor. If it is C<1> (the default), then
308every address is pinged in the order specified. If it is C<2>, then only
309every second address will be pinged in the first round, followed by a
310second round with the others. Higher factors will create C<$interleave>

179The code reference gets a single parameter - an arrayref with an 325=item $pinger->stop
180entry for each received packet (replies are being batched for greater
181efficiency). Each packet is represented by an arrayref with three members:
182the source address (an octet string of either 4 (IPv4) or 16 (IPv6) octets
