32 | |
40 | This module implements asynchronous I/O using whatever means your |
33 | This module implements asynchronous I/O using whatever means your |
41 | operating system supports. |
34 | operating system supports. It is implemented as an interface to C<libeio> |
|
|
35 | (L<http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libeio.html>). |
42 | |
36 | |
|
|
37 | Asynchronous means that operations that can normally block your program |
|
|
38 | (e.g. reading from disk) will be done asynchronously: the operation |
|
|
39 | will still block, but you can do something else in the meantime. This |
|
|
40 | is extremely useful for programs that need to stay interactive even |
|
|
41 | when doing heavy I/O (GUI programs, high performance network servers |
|
|
42 | etc.), but can also be used to easily do operations in parallel that are |
|
|
43 | normally done sequentially, e.g. stat'ing many files, which is much faster |
|
|
44 | on a RAID volume or over NFS when you do a number of stat operations |
|
|
45 | concurrently. |
|
|
46 | |
|
|
47 | While most of this works on all types of file descriptors (for |
|
|
48 | example sockets), using these functions on file descriptors that |
|
|
49 | support nonblocking operation (again, sockets, pipes etc.) is |
|
|
50 | very inefficient. Use an event loop for that (such as the L<EV> |
|
|
51 | module): IO::AIO will naturally fit into such an event loop itself. |
|
|
52 | |
43 | Currently, a number of threads are started that execute your read/writes |
53 | In this version, a number of threads are started that execute your |
44 | and signal their completion. You don't need thread support in your libc or |
54 | requests and signal their completion. You don't need thread support |
45 | perl, and the threads created by this module will not be visible to the |
55 | in perl, and the threads created by this module will not be visible |

56 | to perl. In the future, this module might make use of the native aio |
47 | aio functions available on many operating systems. However, they are often |
57 | functions available on many operating systems. However, they are often |
48 | not well-supported (Linux doesn't allow them on normal files currently, |
58 | not well-supported or restricted (GNU/Linux doesn't allow them on normal |
49 | for example), and they would only support aio_read and aio_write, so the |
59 | files currently, for example), and they would only support aio_read and |
50 | remaining functionality would have to be implemented using threads anyway. |

68 | =head2 EXAMPLE |
|
|
69 | |
|
|
70 | This is a simple example that uses the EV module and loads |
|
|
71 | F</etc/passwd> asynchronously: |
|
|
72 | |
|
|
73 | use Fcntl; |
|
|
74 | use EV; |
|
|
75 | use IO::AIO; |
|
|
76 | |
|
|
77 | # register the IO::AIO callback with EV |
|
|
78 | my $aio_w = EV::io IO::AIO::poll_fileno, EV::READ, \&IO::AIO::poll_cb; |
|
|
79 | |
|
|
80 | # queue the request to open /etc/passwd |
|
|
81 | aio_open "/etc/passwd", IO::AIO::O_RDONLY, 0, sub { |
|
|
82 | my $fh = shift |
|
|
83 | or die "error while opening: $!"; |
|
|
84 | |
|
|
85 | # stat'ing filehandles is generally non-blocking |
|
|
86 | my $size = -s $fh; |
|
|
87 | |
|
|
88 | # queue a request to read the file |
|
|
89 | my $contents; |
|
|
90 | aio_read $fh, 0, $size, $contents, 0, sub { |
|
|
91 | $_[0] == $size |
|
|
92 | or die "short read: $!"; |
|
|
93 | |
|
|
94 | close $fh; |
|
|
95 | |
|
|
96 | # file contents now in $contents |
|
|
97 | print $contents; |
|
|
98 | |
|
|
99 | # exit event loop and program |
|
|
100 | EV::unloop; |
|
|
101 | }; |
|
|
102 | }; |
|
|
103 | |
|
|
104 | # possibly queue up other requests, or open GUI windows, |
|
|
105 | # check for sockets etc. etc. |
|
|
106 | |
|
|
107 | # process events as long as there are some: |
|
|
108 | EV::loop; |
|
|
109 | |
|
|
110 | =head1 REQUEST ANATOMY AND LIFETIME |
|
|
111 | |
|
|
112 | Every C<aio_*> function creates a request. which is a C data structure not |
|
|
113 | directly visible to Perl. |
|
|
114 | |
|
|
115 | If called in non-void context, every request function returns a Perl |
|
|
116 | object representing the request. In void context, nothing is returned, |
|
|
117 | which saves a bit of memory. |
|
|
118 | |
|
|
119 | The perl object is a fairly standard ref-to-hash object. The hash contents |
|
|
120 | are not used by IO::AIO so you are free to store anything you like in it. |
|
|
121 | |
|
|
122 | During their existance, aio requests travel through the following states, |
|
|
123 | in order: |
|
|
124 | |
|
|
125 | =over 4 |
|
|
126 | |
|
|
127 | =item ready |
|
|
128 | |
|
|
129 | Immediately after a request is created it is put into the ready state, |
|
|
130 | waiting for a thread to execute it. |
|
|
131 | |
|
|
132 | =item execute |
|
|
133 | |
|
|
134 | A thread has accepted the request for processing and is currently |
|
|
135 | executing it (e.g. blocking in read). |
|
|
136 | |
|
|
137 | =item pending |
|
|
138 | |
|
|
139 | The request has been executed and is waiting for result processing. |
|
|
140 | |
|
|
141 | While request submission and execution is fully asynchronous, result |
|
|
142 | processing is not and relies on the perl interpreter calling C<poll_cb> |
|
|
143 | (or another function with the same effect). |
|
|
144 | |
|
|
145 | =item result |
|
|
146 | |
|
|
147 | The request results are processed synchronously by C<poll_cb>. |
|
|
148 | |
|
|
149 | The C<poll_cb> function will process all outstanding aio requests by |
|
|
150 | calling their callbacks, freeing memory associated with them and managing |
|
|
151 | any groups they are contained in. |
|
|
152 | |
|
|
153 | =item done |
|
|
154 | |
|
|
155 | Request has reached the end of its lifetime and holds no resources anymore |
|
|
156 | (except possibly for the Perl object, but its connection to the actual |
|
|
157 | aio request is severed and calling its methods will either do nothing or |
|
|
158 | result in a runtime error). |

331 | =item $prev_pri = aioreq_pri [$pri] |
|
|
332 | |
|
|
333 | Returns the priority value that would be used for the next request and, if |
|
|
334 | C<$pri> is given, sets the priority for the next aio request. |
|
|
335 | |
|
|
336 | The default priority is C<0>, the minimum and maximum priorities are C<-4> |
|
|
337 | and C<4>, respectively. Requests with higher priority will be serviced |
|
|
338 | first. |
|
|
339 | |
|
|
340 | The priority will be reset to C<0> after each call to one of the C<aio_*> |
|
|
341 | functions. |
|
|
342 | |
|
|
343 | Example: open a file with low priority, then read something from it with |
|
|
344 | higher priority so the read request is serviced before other low priority |
|
|
345 | open requests (potentially spamming the cache): |
|
|
346 | |
|
|

143 | C<close> or just let filehandles go out of scope. |

145 | This is supposed to be a bug in the API, so that might change. It's |

409 | closing the file descriptor associated with the filehandle itself. |
147 | |
410 | |
|
|
411 | Therefore, C<aio_close> will not close the filehandle - instead it will |
|
|
412 | use dup2 to overwrite the file descriptor with the write-end of a pipe |
|
|
413 | (the pipe fd will be created on demand and will be cached). |
|
|
414 | |
|
|
415 | Or in other words: the file descriptor will be closed, but it will not be |
|
|
416 | free for reuse until the perl filehandle is closed. |

420 | =item aio_seek $fh, $offset, $whence, $callback->($offs) |
|
|
421 | |
|
|
422 | Seeks the filehandle to the new C<$offset>, similarly to perl's |
|
|
423 | C<sysseek>. The C<$whence> can use the traditional values (C<0> for |
|
|
424 | C<IO::AIO::SEEK_SET>, C<1> for C<IO::AIO::SEEK_CUR> or C<2> for |
|
|
425 | C<IO::AIO::SEEK_END>). |
|
|
426 | |
|
|
427 | The resulting absolute offset will be passed to the callback, or C<-1> in |
|
|
428 | case of an error. |
|
|
429 | |
|
|
430 | In theory, the C<$whence> constants could be different than the |
|
|
431 | corresponding values from L<Fcntl>, but perl guarantees they are the same, |
|
|
432 | so don't panic. |
|
|
433 | |
|
|
434 | As a GNU/Linux (and maybe Solaris) extension, also the constants |
|
|
435 | C<IO::AIO::SEEK_DATA> and C<IO::AIO::SEEK_HOLE> are available, if they |
|
|
436 | could be found. No guarantees about suitability for use in C<aio_seek> or |
|
|
437 | Perl's C<sysseek> can be made though, although I would naively assume they |
|

438 | "just work". |

483 | |
|
|
484 | Please note that C<aio_sendfile> can read more bytes from C<$in_fh> than |
|
|
485 | are written, and there is no way to find out how many more bytes have been |

|
491 | C<aio_sendfile> on non-blocking sockets, as long as one end (typically |

|
|
494 | into a trap where C<aio_sendfile> reads some data with readahead, then |
|
|
495 | fails to write all data, and when the socket is ready the next time, the |
|
|
496 | data in the cache is already lost, forcing C<aio_sendfile> to again hit |
|
|
497 | the disk. Explicit C<aio_read> + C<aio_write> let's you better control |

690 | =item aio_utime $fh_or_path, $atime, $mtime, $callback->($status) |
|
|
691 | |
|
|
692 | Works like perl's C<utime> function (including the special case of $atime |
|
|
693 | and $mtime being undef). Fractional times are supported if the underlying |
|
|
694 | syscalls support them. |
|
|
695 | |
|
|
696 | When called with a pathname, uses utimes(2) if available, otherwise |
|
|
697 | utime(2). If called on a file descriptor, uses futimes(2) if available, |
|
|
698 | otherwise returns ENOSYS, so this is not portable. |
|
|
699 | |
|
|
700 | Examples: |
|
|
701 | |
|
|
702 | # set atime and mtime to current time (basically touch(1)): |
|
|
703 | aio_utime "path", undef, undef; |
|
|
704 | # set atime to current time and mtime to beginning of the epoch: |
|
|
705 | aio_utime "path", time, undef; # undef==0 |
|
|
706 | |
|
|
707 | |
|
|
708 | =item aio_chown $fh_or_path, $uid, $gid, $callback->($status) |
|
|
709 | |
|
|
710 | Works like perl's C<chown> function, except that C<undef> for either $uid |
|
|
711 | or $gid is being interpreted as "do not change" (but -1 can also be used). |
|
|
712 | |
|
|
713 | Examples: |
|
|
714 | |
|
|
715 | # same as "chown root path" in the shell: |
|
|
716 | aio_chown "path", 0, -1; |
|
|
717 | # same as above: |
|
|
718 | aio_chown "path", 0, undef; |
|
|
719 | |
|
|
720 | |
|
|
721 | =item aio_truncate $fh_or_path, $offset, $callback->($status) |
|
|
722 | |
|
|
723 | Works like truncate(2) or ftruncate(2). |
|
|
724 | |
|
|
725 | |
|
|
726 | =item aio_allocate $fh, $mode, $offset, $len, $callback->($status) |
|
|
727 | |
|
|
728 | Allocates or freed disk space according to the C<$mode> argument. See the |
|
|
729 | linux C<fallocate> docuemntation for details. |
|
|
730 | |
|
|
731 | C<$mode> can currently be C<0> or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE> |
|
|
732 | to allocate space, or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE | |
|
|
733 | IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE>, to deallocate a file range. |
|
|
734 | |
|
|
735 | The file system block size used by C<fallocate> is presumably the |
|
|
736 | C<f_bsize> returned by C<statvfs>. |
|
|
737 | |
|
|
738 | If C<fallocate> isn't available or cannot be emulated (currently no |
|
|
739 | emulation will be attempted), passes C<-1> and sets C<$!> to C<ENOSYS>. |
|
|
740 | |
|
|
741 | |
|
|
742 | =item aio_chmod $fh_or_path, $mode, $callback->($status) |
|
|
743 | |
|
|

755 | [EXPERIMENTAL] |
|
|
756 | |
|
|
757 | Asynchronously create a device node (or fifo). See mknod(2). |
|
|
758 | |
|
|
759 | The only (POSIX-) portable way of calling this function is: |
|
|
760 | |
|
|
761 | aio_mknod $pathname, IO::AIO::S_IFIFO | $mode, 0, sub { ... |
|
|
762 | |

766 | =item aio_link $srcpath, $dstpath, $callback->($status) |
|
|

|
|
777 | |
|
|
778 | =item aio_readlink $pathname, $callback->($link) |
|
|
779 | |
|
|
780 | Asynchronously read the symlink specified by C<$path> and pass it to |
|
|
781 | the callback. If an error occurs, nothing or undef gets passed to the |
|
|
782 | callback. |
|
|
783 | |
|
|
784 | |
|
|
785 | =item aio_realpath $pathname, $callback->($path) |
|
|
786 | |
|
|
787 | Asynchronously make the path absolute and resolve any symlinks in |
|
|
788 | C<$path>. The resulting path only consists of directories (same as |
|
|
789 | L<Cwd::realpath>). |
|
|
790 | |
|
|
791 | This request can be used to get the absolute path of the current working |
|
|
792 | directory by passing it a path of F<.> (a single dot). |
|
|
793 | |
|
|
794 | |
|
|
795 | =item aio_rename $srcpath, $dstpath, $callback->($status) |
|
|
796 | |
|
|
797 | Asynchronously rename the object at C<$srcpath> to C<$dstpath>, just as |
|
|
798 | rename(2) and call the callback with the result code. |
|
|
799 | |
|
|
800 | On systems that support the AIO::WD working directory abstraction |
|
|
801 | natively, the case C<[$wd, "."]> as C<$srcpath> is specialcased - instead |
|
|
802 | of failing, C<rename> is called on the absolute path of C<$wd>. |
|
|
803 | |
|
|
804 | |
|
|
805 | =item aio_mkdir $pathname, $mode, $callback->($status) |
|
|
806 | |
|
|
807 | Asynchronously mkdir (create) a directory and call the callback with |
|
|
808 | the result code. C<$mode> will be modified by the umask at the time the |
|
|
809 | request is executed, so do not change your umask. |

246 | |
830 | |
|
|
831 | |
|
|
832 | =item aio_readdirx $pathname, $flags, $callback->($entries, $flags) |
|
|
833 | |
|
|
834 | Quite similar to C<aio_readdir>, but the C<$flags> argument allows one to |
|
|
835 | tune behaviour and output format. In case of an error, C<$entries> will be |
|
|
836 | C<undef>. |
|
|
837 | |
|
|
838 | The flags are a combination of the following constants, ORed together (the |
|
|
839 | flags will also be passed to the callback, possibly modified): |
|
|
840 | |
|
|
841 | =over 4 |
|
|
842 | |
|
|
843 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_DENTS |
|
|
844 | |
|
|
845 | When this flag is off, then the callback gets an arrayref consisting of |
|
|
846 | names only (as with C<aio_readdir>), otherwise it gets an arrayref with |
|
|
847 | C<[$name, $type, $inode]> arrayrefs, each describing a single directory |
|
|
848 | entry in more detail. |
|
|
849 | |
|
|
850 | C<$name> is the name of the entry. |
|
|
851 | |
|
|
852 | C<$type> is one of the C<IO::AIO::DT_xxx> constants: |
|
|
853 | |
|
|
854 | C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>, C<IO::AIO::DT_FIFO>, C<IO::AIO::DT_CHR>, C<IO::AIO::DT_DIR>, |
|
|
855 | C<IO::AIO::DT_BLK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_REG>, C<IO::AIO::DT_LNK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_SOCK>, |
|
|
856 | C<IO::AIO::DT_WHT>. |
|
|
857 | |
|
|
858 | C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN> means just that: readdir does not know. If you need to |
|
|
859 | know, you have to run stat yourself. Also, for speed reasons, the C<$type> |
|
|
860 | scalars are read-only: you can not modify them. |
|
|
861 | |
|
|
862 | C<$inode> is the inode number (which might not be exact on systems with 64 |
|
|
863 | bit inode numbers and 32 bit perls). This field has unspecified content on |
|
|
864 | systems that do not deliver the inode information. |
|
|
865 | |
|
|
866 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST |
|
|
867 | |
|
|
868 | When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order where |
|
|
869 | likely directories come first, in optimal stat order. This is useful when |
|
|
870 | you need to quickly find directories, or you want to find all directories |
|
|
871 | while avoiding to stat() each entry. |
|
|
872 | |
|
|
873 | If the system returns type information in readdir, then this is used |
|
|
874 | to find directories directly. Otherwise, likely directories are names |
|
|
875 | beginning with ".", or otherwise names with no dots, of which names with |
|
|
876 | short names are tried first. |
|
|
877 | |
|
|
878 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_STAT_ORDER |
|
|
879 | |
|
|
880 | When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order |
|
|
881 | suitable for stat()'ing each one. That is, when you plan to stat() |
|
|
882 | all files in the given directory, then the returned order will likely |
|
|
883 | be fastest. |
|
|
884 | |
|
|
885 | If both this flag and C<IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST> are specified, then |
|
|
886 | the likely dirs come first, resulting in a less optimal stat order. |
|
|
887 | |
|
|
888 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_FOUND_UNKNOWN |
|
|
889 | |
|
|
890 | This flag should not be set when calling C<aio_readdirx>. Instead, it |
|
|
891 | is being set by C<aio_readdirx>, when any of the C<$type>'s found were |
|
|
892 | C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>. The absence of this flag therefore indicates that all |
|
|
893 | C<$type>'s are known, which can be used to speed up some algorithms. |

|

1051 | C<$maxreq> specifies the maximum number of outstanding aio requests that |

1055 | On error, the callback is called without arguments, otherwise it receives |
|
|
1056 | two array-refs with path-relative entry names. |
|
|
1057 | |
|
|
1058 | Example: |
|
|
1059 | |
|
|
1060 | aio_scandir $dir, 0, sub { |
|
|
1061 | my ($dirs, $nondirs) = @_; |
|
|
1062 | print "real directories: @$dirs\n"; |
|
|
1063 | print "everything else: @$nondirs\n"; |
|
|
1064 | }; |
|
|
1065 | |
|
|
1066 | Implementation notes. |
|
|
1067 | |
|
|
1068 | The C<aio_readdir> cannot be avoided, but C<stat()>'ing every entry can. |
|
|
1069 | |
|
|
1070 | If readdir returns file type information, then this is used directly to |
|
|
1071 | find directories. |
|
|
1072 | |
|
|
1073 | Otherwise, after reading the directory, the modification time, size etc. |
|
|
1074 | of the directory before and after the readdir is checked, and if they |
|
|
1075 | match (and isn't the current time), the link count will be used to decide |
|
|
1076 | how many entries are directories (if >= 2). Otherwise, no knowledge of the |
|
|
1077 | number of subdirectories will be assumed. |
|
|
1078 | |
|
|
1079 | Then entries will be sorted into likely directories a non-initial dot |
|
|
1080 | currently) and likely non-directories (see C<aio_readdirx>). Then every |
|
|
1081 | entry plus an appended C</.> will be C<stat>'ed, likely directories first, |
|
|
1082 | in order of their inode numbers. If that succeeds, it assumes that the |
|
|
1083 | entry is a directory or a symlink to directory (which will be checked |
|
|
1084 | separately). This is often faster than stat'ing the entry itself because |
|
|
1085 | filesystems might detect the type of the entry without reading the inode |
|
|
1086 | data (e.g. ext2fs filetype feature), even on systems that cannot return |
|
|
1087 | the filetype information on readdir. |
|
|
1088 | |
|
|
1089 | If the known number of directories (link count - 2) has been reached, the |
|
|
1090 | rest of the entries is assumed to be non-directories. |
|
|
1091 | |
|
|
1092 | This only works with certainty on POSIX (= UNIX) filesystems, which |
|
|
1093 | fortunately are the vast majority of filesystems around. |
|
|
1094 | |
|
|
1095 | It will also likely work on non-POSIX filesystems with reduced efficiency |
|
|
1096 | as those tend to return 0 or 1 as link counts, which disables the |
|
|
1097 | directory counting heuristic. |

1306 | scalars (see the C<IO::AIO::mmap> function, although it also works on data |

1307 | scalars managed by the L<Sys::Mmap> or L<Mmap> modules, note that the |

1310 | |

1326 | C<0> (which reads all pages and ensures they are instantiated) or |
|
|
1327 | C<IO::AIO::MT_MODIFY>, which modifies the memory pages (by reading and |

1333 | scalars. |
|
|
1334 | |
|
|
1335 | It reads in all the pages of the underlying storage into memory (if any) |

1336 | and locks them, so they are not getting swapped/paged out or removed. |
|
|
1337 | |
|

|
|
1369 | =item aio_fiemap $fh, $start, $length, $flags, $count, $cb->(\@extents) |
|
|
1370 | |
|
|
1371 | Queries the extents of the given file (by calling the Linux C<FIEMAP> |
|
|
1372 | ioctl, see L<http://cvs.schmorp.de/IO-AIO/doc/fiemap.txt> for details). If |
|
|
1373 | the ioctl is not available on your OS, then this request will fail with |
|
|
1374 | C<ENOSYS>. |
|
|
1375 | |
|
|
1376 | C<$start> is the starting offset to query extents for, C<$length> is the |
|
|
1377 | size of the range to query - if it is C<undef>, then the whole file will |
|
|
1378 | be queried. |
|
|
1379 | |
|
|
1380 | C<$flags> is a combination of flags (C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC> or |
|
|
1381 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAG_XATTR> - C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAGS_COMPAT> is also |
|
|
1382 | exported), and is normally C<0> or C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC> to query |
|
|
1383 | the data portion. |
|
|
1384 | |
|
|
1385 | C<$count> is the maximum number of extent records to return. If it is |
|
|
1386 | C<undef>, then IO::AIO queries all extents of the range. As a very special |
|
|
1387 | case, if it is C<0>, then the callback receives the number of extents |
|
|
1388 | instead of the extents themselves (which is unreliable, see below). |
|
|
1389 | |
|
|
1390 | If an error occurs, the callback receives no arguments. The special |
|
|
1391 | C<errno> value C<IO::AIO::EBADR> is available to test for flag errors. |
|
|
1392 | |
|
|
1393 | Otherwise, the callback receives an array reference with extent |
|
|
1394 | structures. Each extent structure is an array reference itself, with the |
|
|
1395 | following members: |
|
|
1396 | |
|
|
1397 | [$logical, $physical, $length, $flags] |
|
|
1398 | |
|
|
1399 | Flags is any combination of the following flag values (typically either C<0> |
|
|
1400 | or C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST> (1)): |
|
|
1401 | |
|
|
1402 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNKNOWN>, |
|
|
1403 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DELALLOC>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_ENCODED>, |
|
|
1404 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DATA_ENCRYPTED>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_NOT_ALIGNED>, |
|
|
1405 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DATA_INLINE>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DATA_TAIL>, |
|
|
1406 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNWRITTEN>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_MERGED> or |
|
|
1407 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_SHARED>. |
|
|
1408 | |
|
|
1409 | At the time of this writing (Linux 3.2), this requets is unreliable unless |
|
|
1410 | C<$count> is C<undef>, as the kernel has all sorts of bugs preventing |
|
|
1411 | it to return all extents of a range for files with large number of |
|
|
1412 | extents. The code works around all these issues if C<$count> is undef. |
|
|
1413 | |
|
|
1414 | =item aio_group $callback->(...) |
|
|
1415 | |
|
|
1416 | This is a very special aio request: Instead of doing something, it is a |
|
|
1417 | container for other aio requests, which is useful if you want to bundle |
|
|
1418 | many requests into a single, composite, request with a definite callback |
|
|
1419 | and the ability to cancel the whole request with its subrequests. |
|
|
1420 | |
|
|
1421 | Returns an object of class L<IO::AIO::GRP>. See its documentation below |
|
|
1422 | for more info. |
|
|
1423 | |
|
|
1424 | Example: |
|
|
1425 | |
|
|
1426 | my $grp = aio_group sub { |
|
|
1427 | print "all stats done\n"; |
|
|
1428 | }; |
|
|
1429 | |
|
|
1430 | add $grp |
|
|
1431 | (aio_stat ...), |
|
|
1432 | (aio_stat ...), |
|
|
1433 | ...; |
|
|
1434 | |
|
|
1435 | =item aio_nop $callback->() |
|
|
1436 | |
|
|
1437 | This is a special request - it does nothing in itself and is only used for |
|
|
1438 | side effects, such as when you want to add a dummy request to a group so |
|
|
1439 | that finishing the requests in the group depends on executing the given |
|
|
1440 | code. |
|
|
1441 | |
|
|
1442 | While this request does nothing, it still goes through the execution |
|
|
1443 | phase and still requires a worker thread. Thus, the callback will not |
|
|
1444 | be executed immediately but only after other requests in the queue have |
|
|
1445 | entered their execution phase. This can be used to measure request |
|
|
1446 | latency. |
|
|
1447 | |
|
|
1448 | =item IO::AIO::aio_busy $fractional_seconds, $callback->() *NOT EXPORTED* |
|
|
1449 | |
|
|
1450 | Mainly used for debugging and benchmarking, this aio request puts one of |
|
|
1451 | the request workers to sleep for the given time. |
|
|
1452 | |
|
|
1453 | While it is theoretically handy to have simple I/O scheduling requests |
|
|
1454 | like sleep and file handle readable/writable, the overhead this creates is |
|
|
1455 | immense (it blocks a thread for a long time) so do not use this function |
|
|
1456 | except to put your application under artificial I/O pressure. |

1461 | =head2 IO::AIO::WD - multiple working directories |
|
|
1462 | |
|
|
1463 | Your process only has one current working directory, which is used by all |
|
|
1464 | threads. This makes it hard to use relative paths (some other component |
|
|
1465 | could call C<chdir> at any time, and it is hard to control when the path |
|
|
1466 | will be used by IO::AIO). |
|
|
1467 | |
|
|
1468 | One solution for this is to always use absolute paths. This usually works, |
|
|
1469 | but can be quite slow (the kernel has to walk the whole path on every |
|
|
1470 | access), and can also be a hassle to implement. |
|
|
1471 | |
|
|
1472 | Newer POSIX systems have a number of functions (openat, fdopendir, |
|
|
1473 | futimensat and so on) that make it possible to specify working directories |
|
|
1474 | per operation. |
|
|
1475 | |
|
|
1476 | For portability, and because the clowns who "designed", or shall I write, |
|
|
1477 | perpetrated this new interface were obviously half-drunk, this abstraction |
|
|
1478 | cannot be perfect, though. |
|
|
1479 | |
|
|
1480 | IO::AIO allows you to convert directory paths into a so-called IO::AIO::WD |
|
|
1481 | object. This object stores the canonicalised, absolute version of the |
|
|
1482 | path, and on systems that allow it, also a directory file descriptor. |
|
|
1483 | |
|
|
1484 | Everywhere where a pathname is accepted by IO::AIO (e.g. in C<aio_stat> |
|
|
1485 | or C<aio_unlink>), one can specify an array reference with an IO::AIO::WD |
|
|
1486 | object and a pathname instead (or the IO::AIO::WD object alone, which |
|
|
1487 | gets interpreted as C<[$wd, "."]>). If the pathname is absolute, the |
|
|
1488 | IO::AIO::WD object is ignored, otherwise the pathname is resolved relative |
|
|
1489 | to that IO::AIO::WD object. |
|
|
1490 | |
|
|
1491 | For example, to get a wd object for F</etc> and then stat F<passwd> |
|
|
1492 | inside, you would write: |
|
|
1493 | |
|
|
1494 | aio_wd "/etc", sub { |
|
|
1495 | my $etcdir = shift; |
|
|
1496 | |
|
|
1497 | # although $etcdir can be undef on error, there is generally no reason |
|
|
1498 | # to check for errors here, as aio_stat will fail with ENOENT |
|
|
1499 | # when $etcdir is undef. |
|
|
1500 | |
|
|
1501 | aio_stat [$etcdir, "passwd"], sub { |
|
|
1502 | # yay |
|
|
1503 | }; |
|
|
1504 | }; |
|
|
1505 | |
|
|
1506 | That C<aio_wd> is a request and not a normal function shows that creating |
|
|
1507 | an IO::AIO::WD object is itself a potentially blocking operation, which is |
|
|
1508 | why it is done asynchronously. |
|
|
1509 | |
|
|
1510 | To stat the directory obtained with C<aio_wd> above, one could write |
|
|
1511 | either of the following three request calls: |
|
|
1512 | |
|
|
1513 | aio_lstat "/etc" , sub { ... # pathname as normal string |
|
|
1514 | aio_lstat [$wd, "."], sub { ... # "." relative to $wd (i.e. $wd itself) |
|
|
1515 | aio_lstat $wd , sub { ... # shorthand for the previous |
|
|
1516 | |
|
|
1517 | As with normal pathnames, IO::AIO keeps a copy of the working directory |
|
|
1518 | object and the pathname string, so you could write the following without |
|
|
1519 | causing any issues due to C<$path> getting reused: |
|
|
1520 | |
|
|
1521 | my $path = [$wd, undef]; |
|
|
1522 | |
|
|
1523 | for my $name (qw(abc def ghi)) { |
|
|
1524 | $path->[1] = $name; |
|
|
1525 | aio_stat $path, sub { |
|
|
1526 | # ... |
|
|
1527 | }; |
|
|
1528 | } |
|
|
1529 | |
|
|
1530 | There are some caveats: when directories get renamed (or deleted), the |
|
|
1531 | pathname string doesn't change, so will point to the new directory (or |
|
|
1532 | nowhere at all), while the directory fd, if available on the system, |
|
|
1533 | will still point to the original directory. Most functions accepting a |
|
|
1534 | pathname will use the directory fd on newer systems, and the string on |
|
|
1535 | older systems. Some functions (such as realpath) will always rely on the |
|
|
1536 | string form of the pathname. |
|
|
1537 | |
|
|
1538 | So this functionality is mainly useful to get some protection against |
|
|
1539 | C<chdir>, to easily get an absolute path out of a relative path for future |
|
|
1540 | reference, and to speed up doing many operations in the same directory |
|
|
1541 | (e.g. when stat'ing all files in a directory). |
|
|
1542 | |
|
|
1543 | The following functions implement this working directory abstraction: |
|
|
1544 | |
|
|
1545 | =over 4 |
|
|
1546 | |
|
|
1547 | =item aio_wd $pathname, $callback->($wd) |
|
|
1548 | |
|
|
1549 | Asynchonously canonicalise the given pathname and convert it to an |
|
|
1550 | IO::AIO::WD object representing it. If possible and supported on the |
|
|
1551 | system, also open a directory fd to speed up pathname resolution relative |
|
|
1552 | to this working directory. |
|
|
1553 | |
|
|
1554 | If something goes wrong, then C<undef> is passwd to the callback instead |
|
|
1555 | of a working directory object and C<$!> is set appropriately. Since |
|
|
1556 | passing C<undef> as working directory component of a pathname fails the |
|
|
1557 | request with C<ENOENT>, there is often no need for error checking in the |
|
|
1558 | C<aio_wd> callback, as future requests using the value will fail in the |
|
|
1559 | expected way. |
|
|
1560 | |
|
|
1561 | If this call isn't available because your OS lacks it or it couldn't be |
|
|
1562 | detected, it will be emulated by calling C<fsync> instead. |
|
|
1563 | |
|
|
1564 | =item IO::AIO::CWD |
|
|
1565 | |
|
|
1566 | This is a compiletime constant (object) that represents the process |
|
|
1567 | current working directory. |
|
|
1568 | |
|
|
1569 | Specifying this object as working directory object for a pathname is as if |
|
|
1570 | the pathname would be specified directly, without a directory object. For |
|
|
1571 | example, these calls are functionally identical: |
|
|
1572 | |
|
|
1573 | aio_stat "somefile", sub { ... }; |
|
|
1574 | aio_stat [IO::AIO::CWD, "somefile"], sub { ... }; |
|
|
1575 | |
|
|
1576 | =back |
|
|
1577 | |
|
|
1578 | To recover the path associated with an IO::AIO::WD object, you can use |
|
|
1579 | C<aio_realpath>: |
|
|
1580 | |
|
|
1581 | aio_realpath $wd, sub { |
|
|
1582 | warn "path is $_[0]\n"; |
|
|
1583 | }; |
|
|
1584 | |
|
|
1585 | Currently, C<aio_statvfs> always, and C<aio_rename> and C<aio_rmdir> |
|
|
1586 | sometimes, fall back to using an absolue path. |
|
|
1587 | |
|
|
1588 | =head2 IO::AIO::REQ CLASS |
|
|
1589 | |
|
|
1590 | All non-aggregate C<aio_*> functions return an object of this class when |
|
|
1591 | called in non-void context. |
|
|
1592 | |
|
|
1593 | =over 4 |
|
|
1594 | |
|
|
1595 | =item cancel $req |
|
|
1596 | |
|
|
1597 | Cancels the request, if possible. Has the effect of skipping execution |
|
|
1598 | when entering the B<execute> state and skipping calling the callback when |
|
|
1599 | entering the the B<result> state, but will leave the request otherwise |
|
|
1600 | untouched (with the exception of readdir). That means that requests that |
|
|
1601 | currently execute will not be stopped and resources held by the request |

1610 | =head2 IO::AIO::GRP CLASS |
|
|
1611 | |
|
|
1612 | This class is a subclass of L<IO::AIO::REQ>, so all its methods apply to |
|
|
1613 | objects of this class, too. |
|
|
1614 | |
|
|
1615 | A IO::AIO::GRP object is a special request that can contain multiple other |
|
|
1616 | aio requests. |
|
|
1617 | |
|
|
1618 | You create one by calling the C<aio_group> constructing function with a |
|
|
1619 | callback that will be called when all contained requests have entered the |
|
|
1620 | C<done> state: |
|
|
1621 | |
|
|
1622 | my $grp = aio_group sub { |
|
|
1623 | print "all requests are done\n"; |
|
|
1624 | }; |
|
|
1625 | |
|
|
1626 | You add requests by calling the C<add> method with one or more |
|
|
1627 | C<IO::AIO::REQ> objects: |
|
|
1628 | |
|
|
1629 | $grp->add (aio_unlink "..."); |
|
|
1630 | |
|
|
1631 | add $grp aio_stat "...", sub { |
|
|
1632 | $_[0] or return $grp->result ("error"); |
|
|
1633 | |
|
|
1634 | # add another request dynamically, if first succeeded |
|
|
1635 | add $grp aio_open "...", sub { |
|
|
1636 | $grp->result ("ok"); |
|
|
1637 | }; |
|
|
1638 | }; |
|
|
1639 | |
|
|
1640 | This makes it very easy to create composite requests (see the source of |
|
|
1641 | C<aio_move> for an application) that work and feel like simple requests. |
|
|
1642 | |
|
|
1643 | =over 4 |

|

|
|
1645 | =item * The IO::AIO::GRP objects will be cleaned up during calls to |
|
|
1646 | C<IO::AIO::poll_cb>, just like any other request. |
|
|
1647 | |
|
|
1648 | =item * They can be canceled like any other request. Canceling will cancel not |
|
|
1649 | only the request itself, but also all requests it contains. |
|
|
1650 | |
|
|
1651 | =item * They can also can also be added to other IO::AIO::GRP objects. |
|
|
1652 | |
|
|
1653 | =item * You must not add requests to a group from within the group callback (or |
|
|
1654 | any later time). |

1656 | =back |
|
|
1657 | |
|
|
1658 | Their lifetime, simplified, looks like this: when they are empty, they |
|
|
1659 | will finish very quickly. If they contain only requests that are in the |
|
|
1660 | C<done> state, they will also finish. Otherwise they will continue to |
|
|
1661 | exist. |
|
|
1662 | |
|
|
1663 | That means after creating a group you have some time to add requests |
|
|
1664 | (precisely before the callback has been invoked, which is only done within |
|
|
1665 | the C<poll_cb>). And in the callbacks of those requests, you can add |
|
|
1666 | further requests to the group. And only when all those requests have |
|
|
1667 | finished will the the group itself finish. |
|
|
1668 | |

1672 | |
|
|
1673 | =item $grp->add (...) |
|
|
1674 | |
|
|
1675 | Add one or more requests to the group. Any type of L<IO::AIO::REQ> can |
|
|
1676 | be added, including other groups, as long as you do not create circular |
|
|
1677 | dependencies. |
|

|
1679 | Returns all its arguments. |
|
|
1680 | |
|
|
1681 | =item $grp->cancel_subs |
|
|
1682 | |
|
|
1683 | Cancel all subrequests and clears any feeder, but not the group request |
|
|
1684 | itself. Useful when you queued a lot of events but got a result early. |
|
|
1685 | |
|
|
1686 | The group request will finish normally (you cannot add requests to the |
|
|
1687 | group). |
|
|
1688 | |
|
|
1689 | =item $grp->result (...) |
|
|
1690 | |
|
|
1691 | Set the result value(s) that will be passed to the group callback when all |
|
|
1692 | subrequests have finished and set the groups errno to the current value |
|
|
1693 | of errno (just like calling C<errno> without an error number). By default, |
|
|
1694 | no argument will be passed and errno is zero. |
|
|
1695 | |
|
|
1696 | =item $grp->errno ([$errno]) |
|
|
1697 | |
|
|
1698 | Sets the group errno value to C<$errno>, or the current value of errno |
|
|
1699 | when the argument is missing. |
|
|
1700 | |
|
|
1701 | Every aio request has an associated errno value that is restored when |
|
|
1702 | the callback is invoked. This method lets you change this value from its |
|
|
1703 | default (0). |
|
|
1704 | |
|
|
1705 | Calling C<result> will also set errno, so make sure you either set C<$!> |
|
|
1706 | before the call to C<result>, or call c<errno> after it. |
|
|
1707 | |
|
|
1708 | =item feed $grp $callback->($grp) |
|
|
1709 | |
|
|
1710 | Sets a feeder/generator on this group: every group can have an attached |
|
|
1711 | generator that generates requests if idle. The idea behind this is that, |
|
|
1712 | although you could just queue as many requests as you want in a group, |
|
|
1713 | this might starve other requests for a potentially long time. For example, |
|
|
1714 | C<aio_scandir> might generate hundreds of thousands of C<aio_stat> |
|
|
1715 | requests, delaying any later requests for a long time. |
|
|
1716 | |
|
|
1717 | To avoid this, and allow incremental generation of requests, you can |
|
|
1718 | instead a group and set a feeder on it that generates those requests. The |
|
|
1719 | feed callback will be called whenever there are few enough (see C<limit>, |
|
|
1720 | below) requests active in the group itself and is expected to queue more |
|
|
1721 | requests. |
|
|
1722 | |
|
|
1723 | The feed callback can queue as many requests as it likes (i.e. C<add> does |
|
|
1724 | not impose any limits). |
|
|
1725 | |
|
|
1726 | If the feed does not queue more requests when called, it will be |
|
|
1727 | automatically removed from the group. |
|
|
1728 | |
|
|
1729 | If the feed limit is C<0> when this method is called, it will be set to |
|
|
1730 | C<2> automatically. |
|
|
1731 | |
|
|
1732 | Example: |
|
|
1733 | |
|
|
1734 | # stat all files in @files, but only ever use four aio requests concurrently: |
|
|
1735 | |
|
|
1736 | my $grp = aio_group sub { print "finished\n" }; |
|
|
1737 | limit $grp 4; |
|
|
1738 | feed $grp sub { |
|
|
1739 | my $file = pop @files |
|
|
1740 | or return; |
|
|
1741 | |
|
|
1742 | add $grp aio_stat $file, sub { ... }; |
|
|
1743 | }; |
|
|
1744 | |
|
|
1745 | =item limit $grp $num |
|
|
1746 | |
|
|
1747 | Sets the feeder limit for the group: The feeder will be called whenever |
|
|
1748 | the group contains less than this many requests. |
|
|
1749 | |
|
|
1750 | Setting the limit to C<0> will pause the feeding process. |
|
|
1751 | |
|
|
1752 | The default value for the limit is C<0>, but note that setting a feeder |
|
|
1753 | automatically bumps it up to C<2>. |

|
1780 | reason. Returns immediately when no events are outstanding. The amount |
|
|
1781 | of events processed depends on the settings of C<IO::AIO::max_poll_req>, |

|
|
1783 | |

1784 | If not all requests were processed for whatever reason, the poll file |

|
1790 | a lot of requests, to make sure the results get processed when they become |
|
|
1791 | available and not just when the loop is finished and the event loop takes |
|
|

356 | |
1926 | |
357 | Sets the maximum number of outstanding requests to C<$nreqs>. If you |
1927 | Sets the maximum number of outstanding requests to C<$nreqs>. If |
358 | try to queue up more than this number of requests, the caller will block until |
1928 | you do queue up more than this number of requests, the next call to |
359 | some requests have been handled. |
1929 | C<IO::AIO::poll_cb> (and other functions calling C<poll_cb>, such as |
|
|
1930 | C<IO::AIO::flush> or C<IO::AIO::poll>) will block until the limit is no |
|
|
1931 | longer exceeded. |
360 | |
1932 | |
361 | The default is very large, so normally there is no practical limit. If you |
1933 | In other words, this setting does not enforce a queue limit, but can be |
362 | queue up many requests in a loop it often improves speed if you set |
1934 | used to make poll functions block if the limit is exceeded. |
363 | this to a relatively low number, such as C<100>. |
|
|
364 | |
1935 | |
365 | Under normal circumstances you don't need to call this function. |
1936 | This is a very bad function to use in interactive programs because it |
|
|
1937 | blocks, and a bad way to reduce concurrency because it is inexact: Better |
|
|
1938 | use an C<aio_group> together with a feed callback. |
|
|
1939 | |
|
|
1940 | It's main use is in scripts without an event loop - when you want to stat |
|
|
1941 | a lot of files, you can write somehting like this: |
|
|
1942 | |
|
|
1943 | IO::AIO::max_outstanding 32; |
|
|
1944 | |
|
|
1945 | for my $path (...) { |
|
|
1946 | aio_stat $path , ...; |
|
|
1947 | IO::AIO::poll_cb; |
|
|
1948 | } |
|
|
1949 | |
|
|
1950 | IO::AIO::flush; |
|
|
1951 | |
|
|
1952 | The call to C<poll_cb> inside the loop will normally return instantly, but |
|
|
1953 | as soon as more thna C<32> reqeusts are in-flight, it will block until |
|
|
1954 | some requests have been handled. This keeps the loop from pushing a large |
|
|
1955 | number of C<aio_stat> requests onto the queue. |
|
|
1956 | |
|
|
1957 | The default value for C<max_outstanding> is very large, so there is no |
|
|
1958 | practical limit on the number of outstanding requests. |

|
|
1990 | IO::AIO implements some functions that might be useful, but are not |
|
|
1991 | asynchronous. |

1995 | =item IO::AIO::sendfile $ofh, $ifh, $offset, $count |
|
|
1996 | |
|
|
1997 | Calls the C<eio_sendfile_sync> function, which is like C<aio_sendfile>, |
|
|
1998 | but is blocking (this makes most sense if you know the input data is |
|
|
1999 | likely cached already and the output filehandle is set to non-blocking |
|
|
2000 | operations). |

|
2004 | =item IO::AIO::fadvise $fh, $offset, $len, $advice |
|
|
2005 | |
|
|
2006 | Simply calls the C<posix_fadvise> function (see its |
|
|
2007 | manpage for details). The following advice constants are |
|
|
2008 | available: C<IO::AIO::FADV_NORMAL>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_SEQUENTIAL>, |
|

|
|

|
|
2012 | On systems that do not implement C<posix_fadvise>, this function returns |
|
|
2013 | ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<posix_fadvise>. |
|

2014 | |
|
|
2015 | =item IO::AIO::madvise $scalar, $offset, $len, $advice |

2018 | manpage for details). The following advice constants are |
|
|
2019 | available: C<IO::AIO::MADV_NORMAL>, C<IO::AIO::MADV_SEQUENTIAL>, |

|
|
2025 | =item IO::AIO::mprotect $scalar, $offset, $len, $protect |
|
|
2026 | |
|
|
2027 | Simply calls the C<mprotect> function on the preferably AIO::mmap'ed |
|
|
2028 | $scalar (see its manpage for details). The following protect |
|
|
2029 | constants are available: C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ>, |
|
|
2030 | C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>. |
|
|
2031 | |
|
|
2032 | On systems that do not implement C<mprotect>, this function returns |

|
|
2034 | |
|
|
2035 | =item IO::AIO::mmap $scalar, $length, $prot, $flags, $fh[, $offset] |
|
|
2036 | |
|
|
2037 | Memory-maps a file (or anonymous memory range) and attaches it to the |
|
|
2038 | given C<$scalar>, which will act like a string scalar. Returns true on |
|
|
2039 | success, and false otherwise. |
|
|
2040 | |
|
|
2041 | The only operations allowed on the scalar are C<substr>/C<vec> that don't |
|
|
2042 | change the string length, and most read-only operations such as copying it |
|
|
2043 | or searching it with regexes and so on. |
|
|
2044 | |
|
|
2045 | Anything else is unsafe and will, at best, result in memory leaks. |
|
|
2046 | |
|
|
2047 | The memory map associated with the C<$scalar> is automatically removed |
|
|
2048 | when the C<$scalar> is destroyed, or when the C<IO::AIO::mmap> or |
|
|
2049 | C<IO::AIO::munmap> functions are called. |
|
|
2050 | |
|
|
2051 | This calls the C<mmap>(2) function internally. See your system's manual |
|
|
2052 | page for details on the C<$length>, C<$prot> and C<$flags> parameters. |
|
|
2053 | |
|
|
2054 | The C<$length> must be larger than zero and smaller than the actual |
|
|
2055 | filesize. |
|
|
2056 | |
|
|
2057 | C<$prot> is a combination of C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>, |
|
|
2058 | C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ> and/or C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, |
|
|
2059 | |
|
|
2060 | C<$flags> can be a combination of C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED> or |
|
|
2061 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_PRIVATE>, or a number of system-specific flags (when |
|
|
2062 | not available, the are defined as 0): C<IO::AIO::MAP_ANONYMOUS> |
|
|
2063 | (which is set to C<MAP_ANON> if your system only provides this |
|
|
2064 | constant), C<IO::AIO::MAP_HUGETLB>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_LOCKED>, |
|
|
2065 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_NORESERVE>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_POPULATE> or |
|
|
2066 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_NONBLOCK> |
|
|
2067 | |
|
|
2068 | If C<$fh> is C<undef>, then a file descriptor of C<-1> is passed. |
|
|
2069 | |
|
|
2070 | C<$offset> is the offset from the start of the file - it generally must be |
|
|
2071 | a multiple of C<IO::AIO::PAGESIZE> and defaults to C<0>. |
|
|
2072 | |
|
|
2073 | Example: |
|
|
2074 | |
|
|
2075 | use Digest::MD5; |
|
|
2076 | use IO::AIO; |

|
|
2090 | =item IO::AIO::munlock $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef |
|
|
2091 | |
|

2093 | C<aio_mlock> call (see its description for details). |
|
|
2094 | |
|
|
2095 | =item IO::AIO::munlockall |
|
|
2096 | |
|
|
2097 | Calls the C<munlockall> function. |
|
|
2098 | |
|
|
2099 | On systems that do not implement C<munlockall>, this function returns |

2104 | Calls the GNU/Linux C<splice(2)> syscall, if available. If C<$r_off> or |
|
|
2105 | C<$w_off> are C<undef>, then C<NULL> is passed for these, otherwise they |

2106 | should be the file offset. |
|
|
2107 | |
|
|
2108 | C<$r_fh> and C<$w_fh> should not refer to the same file, as splice might |

2132 | =head1 EVENT LOOP INTEGRATION |
|
|
2133 | |
|
|
2134 | It is recommended to use L<AnyEvent::AIO> to integrate IO::AIO |
|
|
2135 | automatically into many event loops: |
|
|
2136 | |
|
|
2137 | # AnyEvent integration (EV, Event, Glib, Tk, POE, urxvt, pureperl...) |
|
|
2138 | use AnyEvent::AIO; |
|
|
2139 | |
|
|
2140 | You can also integrate IO::AIO manually into many event loops, here are |
|
|
2141 | some examples of how to do this: |
|
|
2142 | |
|
|
2143 | # EV integration |
|
|
2144 | my $aio_w = EV::io IO::AIO::poll_fileno, EV::READ, \&IO::AIO::poll_cb; |
|
|
2145 | |
|
|
2146 | # Event integration |
|
|
2147 | Event->io (fd => IO::AIO::poll_fileno, |
|
|
2148 | poll => 'r', |
|
|
2149 | cb => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb); |
|
|
2150 | |
|
|
2151 | # Glib/Gtk2 integration |
|
|
2152 | add_watch Glib::IO IO::AIO::poll_fileno, |
|
|
2153 | in => sub { IO::AIO::poll_cb; 1 }; |
|
|
2154 | |
|
|
2155 | # Tk integration |
|
|
2156 | Tk::Event::IO->fileevent (IO::AIO::poll_fileno, "", |
|
|
2157 | readable => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb); |
|
|
2158 | |
|
|
2159 | # Danga::Socket integration |
|
|
2160 | Danga::Socket->AddOtherFds (IO::AIO::poll_fileno => |
|
|
2161 | \&IO::AIO::poll_cb); |
|
|

395 | =head2 FORK BEHAVIOUR |
2163 | =head2 FORK BEHAVIOUR |
396 | |
2164 | |
397 | Before the fork, IO::AIO enters a quiescent state where no requests |
2165 | Usage of pthreads in a program changes the semantics of fork |
398 | can be added in other threads and no results will be processed. After |
2166 | considerably. Specifically, only async-safe functions can be called after |
399 | the fork the parent simply leaves the quiescent state and continues |
2167 | fork. Perl doesn't know about this, so in general, you cannot call fork |
400 | request/result processing, while the child clears the request/result |
2168 | with defined behaviour in perl if pthreads are involved. IO::AIO uses |
401 | queue (so the requests started before the fork will only be handled in |
2169 | pthreads, so this applies, but many other extensions and (for inexplicable |
402 | the parent). Threats will be started on demand until the limit ste in the |
2170 | reasons) perl itself often is linked against pthreads, so this limitation |
403 | parent process has been reached again. |
2171 | applies to quite a lot of perls. |
|
|
2172 | |
|
|
2173 | This module no longer tries to fight your OS, or POSIX. That means IO::AIO |
|
|
2174 | only works in the process that loaded it. Forking is fully supported, but |
|
|
2175 | using IO::AIO in the child is not. |
|
|
2176 | |
|
|
2177 | You might get around by not I<using> IO::AIO before (or after) |
|
|
2178 | forking. You could also try to call the L<IO::AIO::reinit> function in the |
|
|
2179 | child: |
|
|
2180 | |
|
|
2181 | =over 4 |
|
|
2182 | |
|
|
2183 | =item IO::AIO::reinit |
|
|
2184 | |
|
|
2185 | Abandons all current requests and I/O threads and simply reinitialises all |
|
|
2186 | data structures. This is not an operation supported by any standards, but |
|
|
2187 | happens to work on GNU/Linux and some newer BSD systems. |
|
|
2188 | |
|
|
2189 | The only reasonable use for this function is to call it after forking, if |
|
|
2190 | C<IO::AIO> was used in the parent. Calling it while IO::AIO is active in |
|
|
2191 | the process will result in undefined behaviour. Calling it at any time |
|
|
2192 | will also result in any undefined (by POSIX) behaviour. |

2196 | =head2 MEMORY USAGE |
|
|
2197 | |
|
|
2198 | Per-request usage: |
|
|
2199 | |
|
|
2200 | Each aio request uses - depending on your architecture - around 100-200 |
|
|
2201 | bytes of memory. In addition, stat requests need a stat buffer (possibly |
|
|
2202 | a few hundred bytes), readdir requires a result buffer and so on. Perl |
|
|
2203 | scalars and other data passed into aio requests will also be locked and |
|
|
2204 | will consume memory till the request has entered the done state. |
|
|
2205 | |
|
|
2206 | This is not awfully much, so queuing lots of requests is not usually a |
|
|
2207 | problem. |
|
|
2208 | |
|
|
2209 | Per-thread usage: |
|
|
2210 | |
|
|
2211 | In the execution phase, some aio requests require more memory for |
|
|
2212 | temporary buffers, and each thread requires a stack and other data |
|
|
2213 | structures (usually around 16k-128k, depending on the OS). |
