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.

150
151Creates a new pinger - right now there can be at most C<65536> pingers in
152a process, although that limit might change to something drastically lower
153- you should be stingy with your pinger objects.

184}
69 185
70Returns true if IPv4 is supported in this module and on this system. 186=item $pinger->on_recv ($callback->([[$host, $rtt], ...]))
71 187
72=item AnyEvent::FastPing::ipv6_supported 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.
73 192
74Returns true if IPv6 is supported in this module and on this system. 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.
75 198
76=item AnyEvent::FastPing::icmp4_pktsize 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.
77 201
78Returns the number of bytes each IPv4 ping packet has. 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.
79 207
80=item AnyEvent::FastPing::icmp6_pktsize 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).
81 211
82Returns the number of bytes each IPv4 ping packet has. 212Example: register a callback which simply dumps the received data.
83 213
84=item AnyEvent::FastPing::icmp_ping [ranges...], $send_interval, $payload, \&callback 214 use AnyEvent::Socket;
85 215
86Ping the given IPv4 address ranges. Each range is an arrayref of the 216 $pinger->on_recv (sub {
87form C<[lo, hi, interval]>, where C<lo> and C<hi> are octet strings with 217 for (@{ $_[0] }) {
88either 4 octets (for IPv4 addresses) or 16 octets (for IPV6 addresses), 218 printf "%s %g\n", (AnyEvent::Socket::format_address $_->[0]), $_->[1];
89representing the lowest and highest address to ping (you can convert a
90dotted-quad IPv4 address to this format by using C<inet_aton $address>. The
91range C<interval> is the minimum time in seconds between pings to the
92given range. If omitted, defaults to C<$send_interval>.
93
94The C<$send_interval> is the minimum interval between sending any two
95packets and is a way to make an overall rate limit. If omitted, pings will
96be sent as fast as possible.
97
98The C<$payload> is a 32 bit unsigned integer given as the ICMP ECHO
99REQUEST ident and sequence numbers (in unspecified order :).
100
101The request will be queued and all requests will be served by a background
102thread in order. When all ranges have been pinged, the C<callback> will be
103called.
104
105Algorithm: Each range has an associated "next time to send packet"
106time. The algorithm loops as long as there are ranges with hosts to be
107pinged and always serves the range with the most urgent packet send
108time. It will at most send one packet every C<$send_interval> seconds.
109
110This will ensure that pings to the same range are nicely interleaved with
111other ranges - this can help reduce per-subnet bandwidth while maintaining
112an overall high packet rate.
113
114The algorithm to send each packet is O(log n) on the number of ranges, so
115even a large number of ranges (many thousands) is managable.
116
117No storage is allocated per address.

155
156Register a callback that is called for every received ping reply
157(regardless of whether a ping is still in process or not and regardless of
158whether the reply is actually a reply to a ping sent earlier).
159
160The code reference gets a single parameter - an arrayref with an
161entry for each received packet (replies are beign batched for greater
162efficiency). Each packet is represented by an arrayref with three members:
163the source address (an octet string of either 4 (IPv4) or 16 (IPv6) octets
164length), the payload as passed to C<icmp_ping> and the round trip time in
165seconds.

198 237
199our @CB; 238Registers a callback to be called when the pinger becomes I<idle>, that
239is, it has been started, has exhausted all ping ranges and waited for
240the C<max_rtt> time. An idle pinger is also stopped, so the callback can
241instantly add new ranges, if it so desires.

205sub unregister_cb($) { 249=item $pinger->interval ($seconds)
206 @CB = grep $_ != $_[0], @CB; 250
207} 251Configures the minimum interval between packet sends for this pinger - the
252pinger will not send packets faster than this rate (or actually 1 / rate),
253even if individual ranges have a lower interval.
254
255A value of C<0> selects the fastest possible speed (currently no faster
256than 1_000_000 packets/s).
257
258=item $pinger->max_rtt ($seconds)
259
260If your idle callback were called instantly after all ranges were
261exhausted and you destroyed the object inside (which is common), then
262there would be no chance to receive some replies, as there would be no
263time of the packet to travel over the network.
264
265This can be fixed by starting a timer in the idle callback, or more simply
266by selecting a suitable C<max_rtt> value, which should be the maximum time
267you allow a ping packet to travel to its destination and back.
268
269The pinger thread automatically waits for this amount of time before becoming idle.
270
271The default is currently C<0.5> seconds, which is usually plenty.
272
273=item $pinger->add_range ($lo, $hi[, $interval])
274
275Ping the IPv4 (or IPv6, but see below) address range, starting at binary
276address C<$lo> and ending at C<$hi> (both C<$lo> and C<$hi> will be
277pinged), generating no more than one ping per C<$interval> seconds (or as
278fast as possible if omitted).
279
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 :)
283
284The algorithm to select the next address is O(log n) on the number of
285ranges, so even a large number of ranges (many thousands) is manageable.
286
287No storage is allocated per address.
288
289Note that, while IPv6 addresses are currently supported, the usefulness of
290this option is extremely limited and might be gone in future versions - if
291you want to ping a number of IPv6 hosts, better specify them individually
292using the C<add_hosts> method.
293
294=item $pinger->add_hosts ([$host...], $interval, $interleave)
295
296Similar to C<add_range>, but uses a list of single addresses instead. The
297list is specified as an array reference as first argument. Each entry in
298the array should be a binary host address, either IPv4 or IPv6. If all
299addresses are IPv4 addresses, then a compact IPv4-only format will be used
300to store the list internally.
301
302Minimum C<$interval> is the same as for C<add_range> and can be left out.
303
304C<$interlave> specifies an increment between addresses: often address
305lists are generated in a way that results in clustering - first all
306addresses from one subnet, then from the next, and so on. To avoid this,
307you can specify an interleave factor. If it is C<1> (the default), then
308every address is pinged in the order specified. If it is C<2>, then only
309every second address will be pinged in the first round, followed by a
310second round with the others. Higher factors will create C<$interleave>
311runs of addresses spaced C<$interleave> indices in the list.
312
313The special value C<0> selects a (hopefully) suitable interleave factor
314automatically - currently C<256> for lists with less than 65536 addresses,
315and the square root of the list length otherwise.
316
317=item $pinger->start
318
319Start the pinger, unless it is running already. While a pinger is running
320you must not modify the pinger. If you want to change a parameter, you
321have to C<stop> the pinger first.
322
323The pinger will automatically stop when destroyed.
324
325=item $pinger->stop
326
327Stop the pinger, if it is running. A pinger can be stopped at any time,
328after which it's current state is preserved - starting it again will
329continue where it left off.
