411 | =head3 Restart Behaviour |
|
|
412 | |
|
|
413 | While restart behaviour is up to the event loop implementation, most will |
|
|
414 | not restart syscalls (that includes L<Async::Interrupt> and AnyEvent's |
|
|
415 | pure perl implementation). |
|
|
416 | |
|
|
417 | =head3 Safe/Unsafe Signals |
|
|
418 | |
|
|
419 | Perl signals can be either "safe" (synchronous to opcode handling) or |
|
|
420 | "unsafe" (asynchronous) - the former might get delayed indefinitely, the |
|
|
421 | latter might corrupt your memory. |
|
|
422 | |
|
|
423 | AnyEvent signal handlers are, in addition, synchronous to the event loop, |
|
|
424 | i.e. they will not interrupt your running perl program but will only be |
|
|
425 | called as part of the normal event handling (just like timer, I/O etc. |
|
|
426 | callbacks, too). |
|
|
427 | |
|
|
428 | =head3 Signal Races, Delays and Workarounds |
|
|
429 | |
|
|
430 | Many event loops (e.g. Glib, Tk, Qt, IO::Async) do not support attaching |
|
|
431 | callbacks to signals in a generic way, which is a pity, as you cannot |
|
|
432 | do race-free signal handling in perl, requiring C libraries for |
|
|
433 | this. AnyEvent will try to do it's best, which means in some cases, |
|
|
434 | signals will be delayed. The maximum time a signal might be delayed is |
|
|
435 | specified in C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY> (default: 10 seconds). This |
|
|
436 | variable can be changed only before the first signal watcher is created, |
|
|
437 | and should be left alone otherwise. This variable determines how often |
|
|
438 | AnyEvent polls for signals (in case a wake-up was missed). Higher values |
|
|
439 | will cause fewer spurious wake-ups, which is better for power and CPU |
|
|
440 | saving. |
|
|
441 | |
|
|
442 | All these problems can be avoided by installing the optional |
|
|
443 | L<Async::Interrupt> module, which works with most event loops. It will not |
|
|
444 | work with inherently broken event loops such as L<Event> or L<Event::Lib> |
|
|
445 | (and not with L<POE> currently, as POE does it's own workaround with |
|
|
446 | one-second latency). For those, you just have to suffer the delays. |

712 | Another reason I<never> to C<< ->recv >> in a module is that you cannot |

979 | This variable is mainly useful for modules that can do something useful |
|
|
980 | when AnyEvent is used and thus want to know when it is initialised, but do |
|
|
981 | not need to even load it by default. This array provides the means to hook |
|
|
982 | into AnyEvent passively, without loading it. |
|
|
983 | |
|
|
984 | Example: To load Coro::AnyEvent whenever Coro and AnyEvent are used |
|
|
985 | together, you could put this into Coro (this is the actual code used by |
|
|
986 | Coro to accomplish this): |
|
|
987 | |
|
|
988 | if (defined $AnyEvent::MODEL) { |
|
|
989 | # AnyEvent already initialised, so load Coro::AnyEvent |
|
|
990 | require Coro::AnyEvent; |
|
|
991 | } else { |
|
|
992 | # AnyEvent not yet initialised, so make sure to load Coro::AnyEvent |
|
|
993 | # as soon as it is |
|
|
994 | push @AnyEvent::post_detect, sub { require Coro::AnyEvent }; |
|
|
995 | } |

|
1097 | As Pauli would put it, "Not only is it not right, it's not even wrong!" - |
|
|
1098 | there are so many things wrong with AnyEvent::Handle::UDP, most notably |
|
|
1099 | it's use of a stream-based API with a protocol that isn't streamable, that |
|
|
1100 | the only way to improve it is to delete it. |
|
|
1101 | |
|
|
1102 | It features data corruption (but typically only under load) and general |
|
|
1103 | confusion. On top, the author is not only clueless about UDP but also |
|
|
1104 | fact-resistant - some gems of his understanding: "connect doesn't work |
|
|
1105 | with UDP", "UDP packets are not IP packets", "UDP only has datagrams, not |
|
|
1106 | packets", "I don't need to implement proper error checking as UDP doesn't |
|
|
1107 | support error checking" and so on - he doesn't even understand what's |
|
|
1108 | wrong with his module when it is explained to him. |

1337 | simpler, API that is designed to reduce the calling, typing and memory |

1338 | overhead by using function call syntax and a fixed number of parameters. |

|
|
2496 | |
|
|
2497 | One of AnyEvent's main goals is to be 100% Pure-Perl(tm): only perl (and |
|
|
2498 | it's built-in modules) are required to use it. |
|
|
2499 | |
|
|
2500 | That does not mean that AnyEvent won't take advantage of some additional |
|
|
2501 | modules if they are installed. |
|
|
2502 | |
|
|
2503 | This section explains which additional modules will be used, and how they |
|
|
2504 | affect AnyEvent's operation. |

2507 | |
|
|
2508 | =item L<Async::Interrupt> |
|
|
2509 | |
|
|
2510 | This slightly arcane module is used to implement fast signal handling: To |
|
|
2511 | my knowledge, there is no way to do completely race-free and quick |
|
|
2512 | signal handling in pure perl. To ensure that signals still get |
|
|
2513 | delivered, AnyEvent will start an interval timer to wake up perl (and |
|
|
2514 | catch the signals) with some delay (default is 10 seconds, look for |
|
|
2515 | C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY>). |
|
|
2516 | |
|
|
2517 | If this module is available, then it will be used to implement signal |
|
|
2518 | catching, which means that signals will not be delayed, and the event loop |
|
|
2519 | will not be interrupted regularly, which is more efficient (and good for |
|
|
2520 | battery life on laptops). |
|
|
2521 | |
|
|
2522 | This affects not just the pure-perl event loop, but also other event loops |
|
|
2523 | that have no signal handling on their own (e.g. Glib, Tk, Qt). |
|
|
2524 | |
|
|
2525 | Some event loops (POE, Event, Event::Lib) offer signal watchers natively, |
|
|
2526 | and either employ their own workarounds (POE) or use AnyEvent's workaround |
|
|
2527 | (using C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY>). Installing L<Async::Interrupt> |
|
|
2528 | does nothing for those backends. |
|
|
2529 | |
|
|
2530 | =item L<EV> |
|
|
2531 | |
|
|
2532 | This module isn't really "optional", as it is simply one of the backend |
|
|
2533 | event loops that AnyEvent can use. However, it is simply the best event |
|
|
2534 | loop available in terms of features, speed and stability: It supports |
|
|
2535 | the AnyEvent API optimally, implements all the watcher types in XS, does |
|
|
2536 | automatic timer adjustments even when no monotonic clock is available, |
|
|
2537 | can take avdantage of advanced kernel interfaces such as C<epoll> and |
|
|
2538 | C<kqueue>, and is the fastest backend I<by far>. You can even embed |
|
|
2539 | L<Glib>/L<Gtk2> in it (or vice versa, see L<EV::Glib> and L<Glib::EV>). |
|
|
2540 | |
|
|
2541 | If you only use backends that rely on another event loop (e.g. C<Tk>), |
|
|
2542 | then this module will do nothing for you. |
|
|
2543 | |
|
|
2544 | =item L<Guard> |
|
|
2545 | |
|
|
2546 | The guard module, when used, will be used to implement |
|
|
2547 | C<AnyEvent::Util::guard>. This speeds up guards considerably (and uses a |
|
|
2548 | lot less memory), but otherwise doesn't affect guard operation much. It is |
|
|
2549 | purely used for performance. |
|
|
2550 | |
|
|
2551 | =item L<JSON> and L<JSON::XS> |
|
|
2552 | |
|
|
2553 | One of these modules is required when you want to read or write JSON data |
|
|
2554 | via L<AnyEvent::Handle>. L<JSON> is also written in pure-perl, but can take |
|
|
2555 | advantage of the ultra-high-speed L<JSON::XS> module when it is installed. |
|
|
2556 | |
|
|
2557 | =item L<Net::SSLeay> |
|
|
2558 | |
|
|
2559 | Implementing TLS/SSL in Perl is certainly interesting, but not very |
|
|
2560 | worthwhile: If this module is installed, then L<AnyEvent::Handle> (with |
|
|
2561 | the help of L<AnyEvent::TLS>), gains the ability to do TLS/SSL. |
|
|
2562 | |
|
|
2563 | =item L<Time::HiRes> |
|
|
2564 | |
|
|
2565 | This module is part of perl since release 5.008. It will be used when the |
|
|
2566 | chosen event library does not come with a timing source on it's own. The |
|
|
2567 | pure-perl event loop (L<AnyEvent::Impl::Perl>) will additionally use it to |
|
|
2568 | try to use a monotonic clock for timing stability. |

2579 | one way or another. Only L<EV> is fully fork-aware and ensures that you |
|
|
2580 | continue event-processing in both parent and child (or both, if you know |
|
|
2581 | what you are doing). |
|
|
2582 | |
|
|
2583 | This means that, in general, you cannot fork and do event processing in |
|
|
2584 | the child if the event library was initialised before the fork (which |
|
|
2585 | usually happens when the first AnyEvent watcher is created, or the library |

|
|
2596 | parent and child, which is almost never what you want. USing C<exec> |
|
|
2597 | to start worker children from some kind of manage rprocess is usually |
|
|
2598 | preferred, because it is much easier and cleaner, at the expense of having |
