1413 | "PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY" |
|
|
1414 | Perl has inherently racy signal handling (you can basically choose |
|
|
1415 | between losing signals and memory corruption) - pure perl event |
|
|
1416 | loops (including "AnyEvent::Loop", when "Async::Interrupt" isn't |
|
|
1417 | available) therefore have to poll regularly to avoid losing signals. |
|
|
1418 | |
|
|
1419 | Some event loops are racy, but don't poll regularly, and some event |
|
|
1420 | loops are written in C but are still racy. For those event loops, |
|
|
1421 | AnyEvent installs a timer that regularly wakes up the event loop. |
|
|
1422 | |
|
|
1423 | By default, the interval for this timer is 10 seconds, but you can |
|
|
1424 | override this delay with this environment variable (or by setting |
|
|
1425 | the $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY variable before creating signal |
|
|
1426 | watchers). |
|
|
1427 | |
|
|
1428 | Lower values increase CPU (and energy) usage, higher values can |
|
|
1429 | introduce long delays when reaping children or waiting for signals. |
|
|

2081 | In addition to logical problems with fork, there are also implementation |
|
|
2082 | problems. For example, on POSIX systems, you cannot fork at all in Perl |
|
|
2083 | code if a thread (I am talking of pthreads here) was ever created in the |
|
|
2084 | process, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. In general, using fork |
|
|
2085 | from Perl is difficult, and attempting to use fork without an exec to |
|
|
2086 | implement some kind of parallel processing is almost certainly doomed. |
|
|
2087 | |
|
|
2088 | To safely fork and exec, you should use a module such as Proc::FastSpawn |
|
|
2089 | that let's you safely fork and exec new processes. |
|
|
2090 | |
|
|
2091 | If you want to do multiprocessing using processes, you can look at the |
|
|
2092 | AnyEvent::Fork module (and some related modules such as |
|
|
2093 | AnyEvent::Fork::RPC, AnyEvent::Fork::Pool and AnyEvent::Fork::Remote). |
|
|
2094 | This module allows you to safely create subprocesses without any |
|
|
2095 | limitations - you can use X11 toolkits or AnyEvent in the children |
|
|
2096 | created by AnyEvent::Fork safely and without any special precautions. |
