597 | To help interpret the mode and dev/rdev stat values, IO::AIO offers the |
|
|
598 | following constants and functions (if not implemented, the constants will |
|
|
599 | be C<0> and the functions will either C<croak> or fall back on traditional |
|
|
600 | behaviour). |
|
|
601 | |
|
|
602 | C<S_IFMT>, C<S_IFIFO>, C<S_IFCHR>, C<S_IFBLK>, C<S_IFLNK>, C<S_IFREG>, |
|
|
603 | C<S_IFDIR>, C<S_IFWHT>, C<S_IFSOCK>, C<IO::AIO::major $dev_t>, |

|

|
|
617 | =item aio_statvfs $fh_or_path, $callback->($statvfs) |
|
|
618 | |
|
|
619 | Works like the POSIX C<statvfs> or C<fstatvfs> syscalls, depending on |
|
|
620 | whether a file handle or path was passed. |
|
|
621 | |
|
|
622 | On success, the callback is passed a hash reference with the following |
|
|
623 | members: C<bsize>, C<frsize>, C<blocks>, C<bfree>, C<bavail>, C<files>, |
|
|
624 | C<ffree>, C<favail>, C<fsid>, C<flag> and C<namemax>. On failure, C<undef> |
|
|
625 | is passed. |
|
|
626 | |
|
|
627 | The following POSIX IO::AIO::ST_* constants are defined: C<ST_RDONLY> and |
|
|
628 | C<ST_NOSUID>. |
|
|
629 | |
|
|
630 | The following non-POSIX IO::AIO::ST_* flag masks are defined to |
|
|
631 | their correct value when available, or to C<0> on systems that do |
|
|
632 | not support them: C<ST_NODEV>, C<ST_NOEXEC>, C<ST_SYNCHRONOUS>, |
|
|
633 | C<ST_MANDLOCK>, C<ST_WRITE>, C<ST_APPEND>, C<ST_IMMUTABLE>, C<ST_NOATIME>, |
|
|
634 | C<ST_NODIRATIME> and C<ST_RELATIME>. |
|
|
635 | |
|
|
636 | Example: stat C</wd> and dump out the data if successful. |
|
|
637 | |
|
|
638 | aio_statvfs "/wd", sub { |
|
|
639 | my $f = $_[0] |

640 | or die "statvfs: $!"; |
|
|
641 | |
|
|
642 | use Data::Dumper; |
|

643 | say Dumper $f; |
|
|
644 | }; |

|
|
661 | =item aio_utime $fh_or_path, $atime, $mtime, $callback->($status) |
|
|
662 | |
|
|
663 | Works like perl's C<utime> function (including the special case of $atime |
|
|
664 | and $mtime being undef). Fractional times are supported if the underlying |
|
|
665 | syscalls support them. |
|
|
666 | |
|
|
667 | When called with a pathname, uses utimensat(2) or utimes(2) if available, |
|
|
668 | otherwise utime(2). If called on a file descriptor, uses futimens(2) |
|
|
669 | or futimes(2) if available, otherwise returns ENOSYS, so this is not |
|
|
670 | portable. |
|
|
671 | |
|
|
672 | Examples: |
|
|
673 | |
|
|
674 | # set atime and mtime to current time (basically touch(1)): |
|
|
675 | aio_utime "path", undef, undef; |
|
|
676 | # set atime to current time and mtime to beginning of the epoch: |
|
|
677 | aio_utime "path", time, undef; # undef==0 |
|
|
678 | |
|
|
679 | |
|
|
680 | =item aio_chown $fh_or_path, $uid, $gid, $callback->($status) |
|
|
681 | |
|
|
682 | Works like perl's C<chown> function, except that C<undef> for either $uid |
|
|
683 | or $gid is being interpreted as "do not change" (but -1 can also be used). |
|
|
684 | |
|
|
685 | Examples: |
|
|
686 | |
|
|
687 | # same as "chown root path" in the shell: |
|
|
688 | aio_chown "path", 0, -1; |
|
|
689 | # same as above: |
|
|
690 | aio_chown "path", 0, undef; |
|
|
691 | |
|
|
692 | |
|
|
693 | =item aio_truncate $fh_or_path, $offset, $callback->($status) |
|
|
694 | |
|
|
695 | Works like truncate(2) or ftruncate(2). |
|
|
696 | |
|
|
697 | |
|
|
698 | =item aio_allocate $fh, $mode, $offset, $len, $callback->($status) |
|
|
699 | |
|
|
700 | Allocates or frees disk space according to the C<$mode> argument. See the |
|
|
701 | linux C<fallocate> documentation for details. |
|
|
702 | |
|
|
703 | C<$mode> is usually C<0> or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE> to allocate |
|
|
704 | space, or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE | IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE>, |
|
|
705 | to deallocate a file range. |
|
|
706 | |
|
|
707 | IO::AIO also supports C<FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE>, to remove a range |
|
|
708 | (without leaving a hole), C<FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE>, to zero a range, |
|
|
709 | C<FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE> to insert a range and C<FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE> |
|
|
710 | to unshare shared blocks (see your L<fallocate(2)> manpage). |
|
|
711 | |
|
|
712 | The file system block size used by C<fallocate> is presumably the |
|
|
713 | C<f_bsize> returned by C<statvfs>, but different filesystems and filetypes |
|
|
714 | can dictate other limitations. |
|
|
715 | |
|
|
716 | If C<fallocate> isn't available or cannot be emulated (currently no |
|
|
717 | emulation will be attempted), passes C<-1> and sets C<$!> to C<ENOSYS>. |

|
|
758 | Asynchronously read the symlink specified by C<$path> and pass it to |
|

759 | the callback. If an error occurs, nothing or undef gets passed to the |

|
|
762 | |
|
|
763 | =item aio_realpath $pathname, $callback->($path) |
|
|
764 | |
|
|
765 | Asynchronously make the path absolute and resolve any symlinks in |
|
|
766 | C<$path>. The resulting path only consists of directories (same as |
|
|
767 | L<Cwd::realpath>). |
|
|
768 | |
|
|
769 | This request can be used to get the absolute path of the current working |

782 | |
|
|
783 | =item aio_rename2 $srcpath, $dstpath, $flags, $callback->($status) |
|
|
784 | |
|
|
785 | Basically a version of C<aio_rename> with an additional C<$flags> |
|
|
786 | argument. Calling this with C<$flags=0> is the same as calling |
|
|
787 | C<aio_rename>. |
|
|
788 | |
|
|
789 | Non-zero flags are currently only supported on GNU/Linux systems that |
|
|
790 | support renameat2. Other systems fail with C<ENOSYS> in this case. |
|
|
791 | |
|
|
792 | The following constants are available (missing ones are, as usual C<0>), |
|
|
793 | see renameat2(2) for details: |

|
794 | |
|

825 | |
|
|
826 | =item aio_readdirx $pathname, $flags, $callback->($entries, $flags) |
|
|
827 | |
|
|
828 | Quite similar to C<aio_readdir>, but the C<$flags> argument allows one to |
|
|
829 | tune behaviour and output format. In case of an error, C<$entries> will be |
|
|
830 | C<undef>. |
|
|
831 | |
|
|
832 | The flags are a combination of the following constants, ORed together (the |
|
|
833 | flags will also be passed to the callback, possibly modified): |
|
|
834 | |
|
|
835 | =over 4 |
|
|
836 | |
|
|
837 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_DENTS |
|
|
838 | |
|
|
839 | Normally the callback gets an arrayref consisting of names only (as |
|
|
840 | with C<aio_readdir>). If this flag is set, then the callback gets an |
|
|
841 | arrayref with C<[$name, $type, $inode]> arrayrefs, each describing a |
|
|
842 | single directory entry in more detail: |
|
|
843 | |
|
|
844 | C<$name> is the name of the entry. |
|
|
845 | |
|
|
846 | C<$type> is one of the C<IO::AIO::DT_xxx> constants: |
|
|
847 | |
|
|
848 | C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>, C<IO::AIO::DT_FIFO>, C<IO::AIO::DT_CHR>, C<IO::AIO::DT_DIR>, |
|
|
849 | C<IO::AIO::DT_BLK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_REG>, C<IO::AIO::DT_LNK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_SOCK>, |
|
|
850 | C<IO::AIO::DT_WHT>. |
|
|
851 | |
|
|
852 | C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN> means just that: readdir does not know. If you need |
|
|
853 | to know, you have to run stat yourself. Also, for speed/memory reasons, |
|
|
854 | the C<$type> scalars are read-only: you must not modify them. |
|
|
855 | |
|
|
856 | C<$inode> is the inode number (which might not be exact on systems with 64 |
|
|
857 | bit inode numbers and 32 bit perls). This field has unspecified content on |
|
|
858 | systems that do not deliver the inode information. |
|
|
859 | |
|
|
860 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST |
|
|
861 | |
|
|
862 | When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order where |
|
|
863 | likely directories come first, in optimal stat order. This is useful when |
|
|
864 | you need to quickly find directories, or you want to find all directories |
|
|
865 | while avoiding to stat() each entry. |
|
|
866 | |
|
|
867 | If the system returns type information in readdir, then this is used |
|
|
868 | to find directories directly. Otherwise, likely directories are names |
|
|
869 | beginning with ".", or otherwise names with no dots, of which names with |
|
|
870 | short names are tried first. |
|
|
871 | |
|
|
872 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_STAT_ORDER |
|
|
873 | |
|
|
874 | When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order |
|
|
875 | suitable for stat()'ing each one. That is, when you plan to stat() most or |
|
|
876 | all files in the given directory, then the returned order will likely be |
|
|
877 | faster. |
|
|
878 | |
|
|
879 | If both this flag and C<IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST> are specified, |
|
|
880 | then the likely dirs come first, resulting in a less optimal stat order |
|
|
881 | for stat'ing all entries, but likely a more optimal order for finding |
|
|
882 | subdirectories. |
|
|
883 | |
|
|
884 | =item IO::AIO::READDIR_FOUND_UNKNOWN |
|
|
885 | |
|
|
886 | This flag should not be set when calling C<aio_readdirx>. Instead, it |
|
|
887 | is being set by C<aio_readdirx>, when any of the C<$type>'s found were |
|
|
888 | C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>. The absence of this flag therefore indicates that all |
|
|
889 | C<$type>'s are known, which can be used to speed up some algorithms. |

894 | =item aio_slurp $pathname, $offset, $length, $data, $callback->($status) |
|
|
895 | |
|
|
896 | Opens, reads and closes the given file. The data is put into C<$data>, |
|
|
897 | which is resized as required. |
|
|
898 | |
|
|
899 | If C<$offset> is negative, then it is counted from the end of the file. |
|
|
900 | |
|
|
901 | If C<$length> is zero, then the remaining length of the file is |
|
|
902 | used. Also, in this case, the same limitations to modifying C<$data> apply |
|
|
903 | as when IO::AIO::mmap is used, i.e. it must only be modified in-place |
|
|
904 | with C<substr>. If the size of the file is known, specifying a non-zero |
|
|
905 | C<$length> results in a performance advantage. |
|
|
906 | |
|
|
907 | This request is similar to the older C<aio_load> request, but since it is |
|
|
908 | a single request, it might be more efficient to use. |
|
|
909 | |
|
|
910 | Example: load F</etc/passwd> into C<$passwd>. |
|
|
911 | |
|
|
912 | my $passwd; |

1314 | |
|
|
1315 | These work just like the C<fcntl> and C<ioctl> built-in functions, except |
|
|
1316 | they execute asynchronously and pass the return value to the callback. |
|
|
1317 | |
|
|
1318 | Both calls can be used for a lot of things, some of which make more sense |
|
|
1319 | to run asynchronously in their own thread, while some others make less |
|
|
1320 | sense. For example, calls that block waiting for external events, such |
|
|
1321 | as locking, will also lock down an I/O thread while it is waiting, which |
|
|
1322 | can deadlock the whole I/O system. At the same time, there might be no |
|
|
1323 | alternative to using a thread to wait. |
|
|
1324 | |
|
|
1325 | So in general, you should only use these calls for things that do |
|
|
1326 | (filesystem) I/O, not for things that wait for other events (network, |
|
|
1327 | other processes), although if you are careful and know what you are doing, |

1328 | you still can. |

1402 | This request tries to open, fsync and close the given path. This is a |
|
|
1403 | composite request intended to sync directories after directory operations |
|
|
1404 | (E.g. rename). This might not work on all operating systems or have any |
|
|
1405 | specific effect, but usually it makes sure that directory changes get |
|
|
1406 | written to disc. It works for anything that can be opened for read-only, |
|

1407 | not just directories. |

|
|
1448 | |

1460 | |
|

1464 | C<0> (which reads all pages and ensures they are instantiated) or |
|

|
|
1472 | |
|
|
1473 | It reads in all the pages of the underlying storage into memory (if any) |

1474 | and locks them, so they are not getting swapped/paged out or removed. |

|
1526 | C<$count> is the maximum number of extent records to return. If it is |
|
|
1527 | C<undef>, then IO::AIO queries all extents of the range. As a very special |
|
|
1528 | case, if it is C<0>, then the callback receives the number of extents |
|
|
1529 | instead of the extents themselves (which is unreliable, see below). |
|
|
1530 | |
|
|
1531 | If an error occurs, the callback receives no arguments. The special |
|
|
1532 | C<errno> value C<IO::AIO::EBADR> is available to test for flag errors. |
|
|
1533 | |
|
|
1534 | Otherwise, the callback receives an array reference with extent |
|
|
1535 | structures. Each extent structure is an array reference itself, with the |
|
|
1536 | following members: |
|
|
1537 | |
|
|
1538 | [$logical, $physical, $length, $flags] |
|
|
1539 | |
|
|
1540 | Flags is any combination of the following flag values (typically either C<0> |
|
|
1541 | or C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST> (1)): |
|
|
1542 | |
|
|
1543 | C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNKNOWN>, |

1549 | |
|
|
1550 | At the time of this writing (Linux 3.2), this request is unreliable unless |
|
|
1551 | C<$count> is C<undef>, as the kernel has all sorts of bugs preventing |
|
|
1552 | it to return all extents of a range for files with a large number of |
|
|
1553 | extents. The code (only) works around all these issues if C<$count> is |

1603 | =head2 IO::AIO::WD - multiple working directories |
|
|
1604 | |
|
|
1605 | Your process only has one current working directory, which is used by all |
|
|
1606 | threads. This makes it hard to use relative paths (some other component |
|
|
1607 | could call C<chdir> at any time, and it is hard to control when the path |
|
|
1608 | will be used by IO::AIO). |
|
|
1609 | |
|
|
1610 | One solution for this is to always use absolute paths. This usually works, |
|
|
1611 | but can be quite slow (the kernel has to walk the whole path on every |
|
|
1612 | access), and can also be a hassle to implement. |
|
|
1613 | |
|
|
1614 | Newer POSIX systems have a number of functions (openat, fdopendir, |
|
|
1615 | futimensat and so on) that make it possible to specify working directories |
|
|
1616 | per operation. |
|
|
1617 | |
|
|
1618 | For portability, and because the clowns who "designed", or shall I write, |
|
|
1619 | perpetrated this new interface were obviously half-drunk, this abstraction |
|
|
1620 | cannot be perfect, though. |
|
|
1621 | |
|
|
1622 | IO::AIO allows you to convert directory paths into a so-called IO::AIO::WD |
|
|
1623 | object. This object stores the canonicalised, absolute version of the |
|
|
1624 | path, and on systems that allow it, also a directory file descriptor. |
|
|
1625 | |
|
|
1626 | Everywhere where a pathname is accepted by IO::AIO (e.g. in C<aio_stat> |
|
|
1627 | or C<aio_unlink>), one can specify an array reference with an IO::AIO::WD |
|
|
1628 | object and a pathname instead (or the IO::AIO::WD object alone, which |
|
|
1629 | gets interpreted as C<[$wd, "."]>). If the pathname is absolute, the |
|
|
1630 | IO::AIO::WD object is ignored, otherwise the pathname is resolved relative |
|
|
1631 | to that IO::AIO::WD object. |
|
|
1632 | |
|
|
1633 | For example, to get a wd object for F</etc> and then stat F<passwd> |
|
|
1634 | inside, you would write: |
|
|
1635 | |
|
|
1636 | aio_wd "/etc", sub { |
|
|
1637 | my $etcdir = shift; |
|
|
1638 | |
|
|
1639 | # although $etcdir can be undef on error, there is generally no reason |
|
|
1640 | # to check for errors here, as aio_stat will fail with ENOENT |
|
|
1641 | # when $etcdir is undef. |
|
|
1642 | |
|
|
1643 | aio_stat [$etcdir, "passwd"], sub { |
|
|
1644 | # yay |
|
|
1645 | }; |
|
|
1646 | }; |
|
|
1647 | |
|
|
1648 | The fact that C<aio_wd> is a request and not a normal function shows that |
|
|
1649 | creating an IO::AIO::WD object is itself a potentially blocking operation, |
|
|
1650 | which is why it is done asynchronously. |
|
|
1651 | |
|
|
1652 | To stat the directory obtained with C<aio_wd> above, one could write |
|
|
1653 | either of the following three request calls: |
|
|
1654 | |
|
|
1655 | aio_lstat "/etc" , sub { ... # pathname as normal string |
|
|
1656 | aio_lstat [$wd, "."], sub { ... # "." relative to $wd (i.e. $wd itself) |
|
|
1657 | aio_lstat $wd , sub { ... # shorthand for the previous |
|
|
1658 | |
|
|
1659 | As with normal pathnames, IO::AIO keeps a copy of the working directory |
|
|
1660 | object and the pathname string, so you could write the following without |
|
|
1661 | causing any issues due to C<$path> getting reused: |
|
|
1662 | |
|
|
1663 | my $path = [$wd, undef]; |
|
|
1664 | |
|
|
1665 | for my $name (qw(abc def ghi)) { |
|
|
1666 | $path->[1] = $name; |
|
|
1667 | aio_stat $path, sub { |
|
|
1668 | # ... |
|
|
1669 | }; |
|
|
1670 | } |
|
|
1671 | |
|
|
1672 | There are some caveats: when directories get renamed (or deleted), the |
|
|
1673 | pathname string doesn't change, so will point to the new directory (or |
|
|
1674 | nowhere at all), while the directory fd, if available on the system, |
|
|
1675 | will still point to the original directory. Most functions accepting a |
|
|
1676 | pathname will use the directory fd on newer systems, and the string on |
|
|
1677 | older systems. Some functions (such as C<aio_realpath>) will always rely on |
|
|
1678 | the string form of the pathname. |
|
|
1679 | |
|
|
1680 | So this functionality is mainly useful to get some protection against |
|
|
1681 | C<chdir>, to easily get an absolute path out of a relative path for future |
|
|
1682 | reference, and to speed up doing many operations in the same directory |
|
|
1683 | (e.g. when stat'ing all files in a directory). |
|
|
1684 | |
|
|
1685 | The following functions implement this working directory abstraction: |
|
|
1686 | |
|
|
1687 | =over 4 |
|
|
1688 | |
|
|
1689 | =item aio_wd $pathname, $callback->($wd) |
|
|
1690 | |
|
|
1691 | Asynchonously canonicalise the given pathname and convert it to an |
|
|
1692 | IO::AIO::WD object representing it. If possible and supported on the |
|
|
1693 | system, also open a directory fd to speed up pathname resolution relative |
|
|
1694 | to this working directory. |
|
|
1695 | |
|
|
1696 | If something goes wrong, then C<undef> is passwd to the callback instead |
|
|
1697 | of a working directory object and C<$!> is set appropriately. Since |
|
|
1698 | passing C<undef> as working directory component of a pathname fails the |
|
|
1699 | request with C<ENOENT>, there is often no need for error checking in the |
|
|
1700 | C<aio_wd> callback, as future requests using the value will fail in the |
|
|
1701 | expected way. |
|
|
1702 | |
|
|
1703 | =item IO::AIO::CWD |
|
|
1704 | |
|
|
1705 | This is a compile time constant (object) that represents the process |
|
|
1706 | current working directory. |
|
|
1707 | |
|
|
1708 | Specifying this object as working directory object for a pathname is as if |
|
|
1709 | the pathname would be specified directly, without a directory object. For |
|
|
1710 | example, these calls are functionally identical: |
|
|
1711 | |
|
|
1712 | aio_stat "somefile", sub { ... }; |
|
|
1713 | aio_stat [IO::AIO::CWD, "somefile"], sub { ... }; |
|
|
1714 | |
|
|
1715 | =back |
|
|
1716 | |
|
|
1717 | To recover the path associated with an IO::AIO::WD object, you can use |
|
|
1718 | C<aio_realpath>: |
|
|
1719 | |
|
|
1720 | aio_realpath $wd, sub { |
|
|
1721 | warn "path is $_[0]\n"; |
|
|
1722 | }; |
|
|
1723 | |
|
|
1724 | Currently, C<aio_statvfs> always, and C<aio_rename> and C<aio_rmdir> |
|
|
1725 | sometimes, fall back to using an absolue path. |

2089 | issue many requests without being able to call a poll function on demand, |
|
|
2090 | it is better to use an C<aio_group> together with a feed callback. |
|
|
2091 | |
|
|
2092 | Its main use is in scripts without an event loop - when you want to stat a |
|
|
2093 | lot of files, you can write something like this: |
|
|
2094 | |
|
|
2095 | IO::AIO::max_outstanding 32; |
|
|
2096 | |
|
|
2097 | for my $path (...) { |
|
|
2098 | aio_stat $path , ...; |
|
|
2099 | IO::AIO::poll_cb; |
|
|
2100 | } |
|
|
2101 | |
|
|
2102 | IO::AIO::flush; |
|
|
2103 | |
|
|
2104 | The call to C<poll_cb> inside the loop will normally return instantly, |
|
|
2105 | allowing the loop to progress, but as soon as more than C<32> requests |
|
|
2106 | are in-flight, it will block until some requests have been handled. This |
|
|
2107 | keeps the loop from pushing a large number of C<aio_stat> requests onto |
|
|
2108 | the queue (which, with many paths to stat, can use up a lot of memory). |
|
|
2109 | |
|
|
2110 | The default value for C<max_outstanding> is very large, so there is no |
|
|
2111 | practical limit on the number of outstanding requests. |

|
|
2144 | |
|
|
2145 | Both C<aio_stat>/C<aio_lstat> and perl's C<stat>/C<lstat> functions can |
|
|
2146 | generally find access/modification and change times with subsecond time |
|
|
2147 | accuracy of the system supports it, but perl's built-in functions only |
|
|
2148 | return the integer part. |
|
|
2149 | |
|
|
2150 | The following functions return the timestamps of the most recent |
|
|
2151 | stat with subsecond precision on most systems and work both after |
|
|
2152 | C<aio_stat>/C<aio_lstat> and perl's C<stat>/C<lstat> calls. Their return |
|
|
2153 | value is only meaningful after a successful C<stat>/C<lstat> call, or |
|
|
2154 | during/after a successful C<aio_stat>/C<aio_lstat> callback. |
|
|
2155 | |
|
|
2156 | This is similar to the L<Time::HiRes> C<stat> functions, but can return |
|
|
2157 | full resolution without rounding and work with standard perl C<stat>, |
|
|
2158 | alleviating the need to call the special C<Time::HiRes> functions, which |
|
|
2159 | do not act like their perl counterparts. |
|
|
2160 | |
|
|
2161 | On operating systems or file systems where subsecond time resolution is |
|
|
2162 | not supported or could not be detected, a fractional part of C<0> is |
|
|
2163 | returned, so it is always safe to call these functions. |

2246 | =item $retval = IO::AIO::fexecve $fh, $argv, $envp |
|
|
2247 | |
|
|
2248 | A more-or-less direct equivalent to the POSIX C<fexecve> functions, which |
|
|
2249 | allows you to specify the program to be executed via a file descriptor (or |
|
|
2250 | handle). Returns C<-1> and sets errno to C<ENOSYS> if not available. |
|
|
2251 | |
|
|
2252 | =item $retval = IO::AIO::mount $special, $path, $fstype, $flags = 0, $data = undef |
|
|
2253 | |
|
|
2254 | Calls the GNU/Linux mount syscall with the given arguments. All except |
|
|
2255 | C<$flags> are strings, and if C<$data> is C<undef>, a C<NULL> will be |
|
|
2256 | passed. |
|
|
2257 | |
|
|
2258 | The following values for C<$flags> are available: |
|
|
2259 | |
|
|
2260 | C<IO::AIO::MS_RDONLY>, C<IO::AIO::MS_NOSUID>, C<IO::AIO::MS_NODEV>, C<IO::AIO::MS_NOEXEC>, C<IO::AIO::MS_SYNCHRONOUS>, |
|
|
2261 | C<IO::AIO::MS_REMOUNT>, C<IO::AIO::MS_MANDLOCK>, C<IO::AIO::MS_DIRSYNC>, C<IO::AIO::MS_NOATIME>, |
|
|
2262 | C<IO::AIO::MS_NODIRATIME>, C<IO::AIO::MS_BIND>, C<IO::AIO::MS_MOVE>, C<IO::AIO::MS_REC>, C<IO::AIO::MS_SILENT>, |
|
|
2263 | C<IO::AIO::MS_POSIXACL>, C<IO::AIO::MS_UNBINDABLE>, C<IO::AIO::MS_PRIVATE>, C<IO::AIO::MS_SLAVE>, C<IO::AIO::MS_SHARED>, |
|
|
2264 | C<IO::AIO::MS_RELATIME>, C<IO::AIO::MS_KERNMOUNT>, C<IO::AIO::MS_I_VERSION>, C<IO::AIO::MS_STRICTATIME>, |
|
|
2265 | C<IO::AIO::MS_LAZYTIME>, C<IO::AIO::MS_ACTIVE>, C<IO::AIO::MS_NOUSER>, C<IO::AIO::MS_RMT_MASK>, C<IO::AIO::MS_MGC_VAL> and |
|
|
2266 | C<IO::AIO::MS_MGC_MSK>. |
|
|
2267 | |
|
|
2268 | =item $retval = IO::AIO::umount $path, $flags = 0 |
|
|
2269 | |
|
|
2270 | Invokes the GNU/Linux C<umount> or C<umount2> syscalls. Always calls |
|
|
2271 | C<umount> if C<$flags> is C<0>, otherwqise always tries to call |
|
|
2272 | C<umount2>. |
|
|
2273 | |
|
|
2274 | The following C<$flags> are available: |
|
|
2275 | |
|
|
2276 | C<IO::AIO::MNT_FORCE>, C<IO::AIO::MNT_DETACH>, C<IO::AIO::MNT_EXPIRE> and C<IO::AIO::UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW>. |
|
|
2277 | |
|
|
2278 | =item $numfd = IO::AIO::get_fdlimit |
|
|
2279 | |
|
|
2280 | Tries to find the current file descriptor limit and returns it, or |
|
|
2281 | C<undef> and sets C<$!> in case of an error. The limit is one larger than |
|
|
2282 | the highest valid file descriptor number. |
|
|
2283 | |
|
|
2284 | =item IO::AIO::min_fdlimit [$numfd] |
|
|
2285 | |
|
|
2286 | Try to increase the current file descriptor limit(s) to at least C<$numfd> |
|
|
2287 | by changing the soft or hard file descriptor resource limit. If C<$numfd> |
|
|
2288 | is missing, it will try to set a very high limit, although this is not |
|
|
2289 | recommended when you know the actual minimum that you require. |
|
|
2290 | |
|
|
2291 | If the limit cannot be raised enough, the function makes a best-effort |
|
|
2292 | attempt to increase the limit as much as possible, using various |
|
|
2293 | tricks, while still failing. You can query the resulting limit using |
|
|
2294 | C<IO::AIO::get_fdlimit>. |
|
|
2295 | |
|
|
2296 | If an error occurs, returns C<undef> and sets C<$!>, otherwise returns |
|
|
2297 | true. |
|
|
2298 | |
|
|
2299 | =item IO::AIO::sendfile $ofh, $ifh, $offset, $count |
|
|
2300 | |
|
|
2301 | Calls the C<eio_sendfile_sync> function, which is like C<aio_sendfile>, |
|
|
2302 | but is blocking (this makes most sense if you know the input data is |
|
|
2303 | likely cached already and the output filehandle is set to non-blocking |
|
|
2304 | operations). |
|
|
2305 | |
|
|
2306 | Returns the number of bytes copied, or C<-1> on error. |
|
|
2307 | |
|
|
2308 | =item IO::AIO::fadvise $fh, $offset, $len, $advice |
|
|
2309 | |
|
|
2310 | Simply calls the C<posix_fadvise> function (see its |
|
|
2311 | manpage for details). The following advice constants are |
|
|
2312 | available: C<IO::AIO::FADV_NORMAL>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_SEQUENTIAL>, |
|
|
2313 | C<IO::AIO::FADV_RANDOM>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_NOREUSE>, |
|
|
2314 | C<IO::AIO::FADV_WILLNEED>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_DONTNEED>. |
|
|
2315 | |
|
|
2316 | On systems that do not implement C<posix_fadvise>, this function returns |
|
|
2317 | ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<posix_fadvise>. |
|
|
2318 | |
|
|
2319 | =item IO::AIO::madvise $scalar, $offset, $len, $advice |
|
|
2320 | |
|
|
2321 | Simply calls the C<posix_madvise> function (see its |
|
|
2322 | manpage for details). The following advice constants are |
|
|
2323 | available: C<IO::AIO::MADV_NORMAL>, C<IO::AIO::MADV_SEQUENTIAL>, |
|
|
2324 | C<IO::AIO::MADV_RANDOM>, C<IO::AIO::MADV_WILLNEED>, |
|
|
2325 | C<IO::AIO::MADV_DONTNEED>. |
|
|
2326 | |
|
|
2327 | If C<$offset> is negative, counts from the end. If C<$length> is negative, |
|
|
2328 | the remaining length of the C<$scalar> is used. If possible, C<$length> |
|
|
2329 | will be reduced to fit into the C<$scalar>. |
|
|
2330 | |
|
|
2331 | On systems that do not implement C<posix_madvise>, this function returns |
|
|
2332 | ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<posix_madvise>. |
|
|
2333 | |
|
|
2334 | =item IO::AIO::mprotect $scalar, $offset, $len, $protect |
|
|
2335 | |
|
|
2336 | Simply calls the C<mprotect> function on the preferably AIO::mmap'ed |
|
|
2337 | $scalar (see its manpage for details). The following protect |
|
|
2338 | constants are available: C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ>, |
|
|
2339 | C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>. |
|
|
2340 | |
|
|
2341 | If C<$offset> is negative, counts from the end. If C<$length> is negative, |
|
|
2342 | the remaining length of the C<$scalar> is used. If possible, C<$length> |
|
|
2343 | will be reduced to fit into the C<$scalar>. |
|
|
2344 | |
|
|
2345 | On systems that do not implement C<mprotect>, this function returns |
|
|
2346 | ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<mprotect>. |
|
|
2347 | |
|
|
2348 | =item IO::AIO::mmap $scalar, $length, $prot, $flags, $fh[, $offset] |
|
|
2349 | |
|
|
2350 | Memory-maps a file (or anonymous memory range) and attaches it to the |
|
|
2351 | given C<$scalar>, which will act like a string scalar. Returns true on |
|
|
2352 | success, and false otherwise. |
|
|
2353 | |
|
|
2354 | The scalar must exist, but its contents do not matter - this means you |
|
|
2355 | cannot use a nonexistant array or hash element. When in doubt, C<undef> |
|
|
2356 | the scalar first. |
|
|
2357 | |
|
|
2358 | The only operations allowed on the mmapped scalar are C<substr>/C<vec>, |
|
|
2359 | which don't change the string length, and most read-only operations such |
|
|
2360 | as copying it or searching it with regexes and so on. |
|
|
2361 | |
|
|
2362 | Anything else is unsafe and will, at best, result in memory leaks. |
|
|
2363 | |
|
|
2364 | The memory map associated with the C<$scalar> is automatically removed |
|
|
2365 | when the C<$scalar> is undef'd or destroyed, or when the C<IO::AIO::mmap> |
|
|
2366 | or C<IO::AIO::munmap> functions are called on it. |
|
|
2367 | |
|
|
2368 | This calls the C<mmap>(2) function internally. See your system's manual |
|
|
2369 | page for details on the C<$length>, C<$prot> and C<$flags> parameters. |
|
|
2370 | |
|
|
2371 | The C<$length> must be larger than zero and smaller than the actual |
|
|
2372 | filesize. |
|
|
2373 | |
|
|
2374 | C<$prot> is a combination of C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>, |
|
|
2375 | C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ> and/or C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, |
|
|
2376 | |
|
|
2377 | C<$flags> can be a combination of |
|
|
2378 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED> or |
|
|
2379 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_PRIVATE>, |
|
|
2380 | or a number of system-specific flags (when not available, the are C<0>): |
|
|
2381 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_ANONYMOUS> (which is set to C<MAP_ANON> if your system only provides this constant), |
|
|
2382 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_LOCKED>, |
|
|
2383 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_NORESERVE>, |
|
|
2384 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_POPULATE>, |
|
|
2385 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_NONBLOCK>, |
|
|
2386 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_FIXED>, |
|
|
2387 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_GROWSDOWN>, |
|
|
2388 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_32BIT>, |
|
|
2389 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_HUGETLB>, |
|
|
2390 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_STACK>, |
|
|
2391 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE>, |
|
|
2392 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE>, |
|
|
2393 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_SYNC> or |
|
|
2394 | C<IO::AIO::MAP_UNINITIALIZED>. |
|
|
2395 | |
|
|
2396 | If C<$fh> is C<undef>, then a file descriptor of C<-1> is passed. |
|
|
2397 | |
|
|
2398 | C<$offset> is the offset from the start of the file - it generally must be |
|
|
2399 | a multiple of C<IO::AIO::PAGESIZE> and defaults to C<0>. |
|
|
2400 | |
|
|
2401 | Example: |
|
|
2402 | |
|
|
2403 | use Digest::MD5; |
|
|
2404 | use IO::AIO; |
|
|
2405 | |
|
|
2406 | open my $fh, "<verybigfile" |
|
|
2407 | or die "$!"; |
|
|
2408 | |
|
|
2409 | IO::AIO::mmap my $data, -s $fh, IO::AIO::PROT_READ, IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED, $fh |
|
|
2410 | or die "verybigfile: $!"; |
|
|
2411 | |
|
|
2412 | my $fast_md5 = md5 $data; |
|
|
2413 | |
|
|
2414 | =item IO::AIO::munmap $scalar |
|
|
2415 | |
|
|
2416 | Removes a previous mmap and undefines the C<$scalar>. |
|
|
2417 | |
|
|
2418 | =item IO::AIO::mremap $scalar, $new_length, $flags = MREMAP_MAYMOVE[, $new_address = 0] |
|
|
2419 | |
|
|
2420 | Calls the Linux-specific mremap(2) system call. The C<$scalar> must have |
|
|
2421 | been mapped by C<IO::AIO::mmap>, and C<$flags> must currently either be |
|
|
2422 | C<0> or C<IO::AIO::MREMAP_MAYMOVE>. |
|
|
2423 | |
|
|
2424 | Returns true if successful, and false otherwise. If the underlying mmapped |
|
|
2425 | region has changed address, then the true value has the numerical value |
|
|
2426 | C<1>, otherwise it has the numerical value C<0>: |
|
|
2427 | |
|
|
2428 | my $success = IO::AIO::mremap $mmapped, 8192, IO::AIO::MREMAP_MAYMOVE |
|
|
2429 | or die "mremap: $!"; |
|
|
2430 | |
|
|
2431 | if ($success*1) { |
|
|
2432 | warn "scalar has chanegd address in memory\n"; |
|
|
2433 | } |
|
|
2434 | |
|
|
2435 | C<IO::AIO::MREMAP_FIXED> and the C<$new_address> argument are currently |
|
|
2436 | implemented, but not supported and might go away in a future version. |
|
|
2437 | |
|
|
2438 | On systems where this call is not supported or is not emulated, this call |
|
|
2439 | returns falls and sets C<$!> to C<ENOSYS>. |
|
|
2440 | |
|
|
2441 | =item IO::AIO::mlockall $flags |
|
|
2442 | |
|
|
2443 | Calls the C<eio_mlockall_sync> function, which is like C<aio_mlockall>, |
|
|
2444 | but is blocking. |
|
|
2445 | |
|
|
2446 | =item IO::AIO::munlock $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef |
|
|
2447 | |
|
|
2448 | Calls the C<munlock> function, undoing the effects of a previous |
|
|
2449 | C<aio_mlock> call (see its description for details). |
|
|
2450 | |
|
|
2451 | =item IO::AIO::munlockall |
|
|
2452 | |
|
|
2453 | Calls the C<munlockall> function. |
|
|
2454 | |
|
|
2455 | On systems that do not implement C<munlockall>, this function returns |
|
|
2456 | ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<munlockall>. |
|
|
2457 | |
|
|
2458 | =item $fh = IO::AIO::accept4 $r_fh, $sockaddr, $sockaddr_maxlen, $flags |
|
|
2459 | |
|
|
2460 | Uses the GNU/Linux C<accept4(2)> syscall, if available, to accept a socket |
|
|
2461 | and return the new file handle on success, or sets C<$!> and returns |
|
|
2462 | C<undef> on error. |
|
|
2463 | |
|
|
2464 | The remote name of the new socket will be stored in C<$sockaddr>, which |
|
|
2465 | will be extended to allow for at least C<$sockaddr_maxlen> octets. If the |
|
|
2466 | socket name does not fit into C<$sockaddr_maxlen> octets, this is signaled |
|
|
2467 | by returning a longer string in C<$sockaddr>, which might or might not be |
|
|
2468 | truncated. |
|
|
2469 | |
|
|
2470 | To accept name-less sockets, use C<undef> for C<$sockaddr> and C<0> for |
|
|
2471 | C<$sockaddr_maxlen>. |
|
|
2472 | |
|
|
2473 | The main reasons to use this syscall rather than portable C<accept(2)> |
|
|
2474 | are that you can specify C<SOCK_NONBLOCK> and/or C<SOCK_CLOEXEC> |
|
|
2475 | flags and you can accept name-less sockets by specifying C<0> for |
|
|
2476 | C<$sockaddr_maxlen>, which is sadly not possible with perl's interface to |
|
|
2477 | C<accept>. |
|
|
2478 | |
|
|
2479 | =item IO::AIO::splice $r_fh, $r_off, $w_fh, $w_off, $length, $flags |
|
|
2480 | |
|
|
2481 | Calls the GNU/Linux C<splice(2)> syscall, if available. If C<$r_off> or |
|
|
2482 | C<$w_off> are C<undef>, then C<NULL> is passed for these, otherwise they |
|
|
2483 | should be the file offset. |
|
|
2484 | |
|
|
2485 | C<$r_fh> and C<$w_fh> should not refer to the same file, as splice might |
|
|
2486 | silently corrupt the data in this case. |
|
|
2487 | |
|
|
2488 | The following symbol flag values are available: C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_MOVE>, |
|
|
2489 | C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK>, C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_MORE> and |
|
|
2490 | C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_GIFT>. |
|
|
2491 | |
|
|
2492 | See the C<splice(2)> manpage for details. |
|
|
2493 | |
|
|
2494 | =item IO::AIO::tee $r_fh, $w_fh, $length, $flags |
|
|
2495 | |
|
|
2496 | Calls the GNU/Linux C<tee(2)> syscall, see its manpage and the |
|
|
2497 | description for C<IO::AIO::splice> above for details. |
|
|
2498 | |
|
|
2499 | =item $actual_size = IO::AIO::pipesize $r_fh[, $new_size] |
|
|
2500 | |
|
|
2501 | Attempts to query or change the pipe buffer size. Obviously works only |
|
|
2502 | on pipes, and currently works only on GNU/Linux systems, and fails with |
|
|
2503 | C<-1>/C<ENOSYS> everywhere else. If anybody knows how to influence pipe buffer |
|
|
2504 | size on other systems, drop me a note. |
|
|
2505 | |
|
|
2506 | =item ($rfh, $wfh) = IO::AIO::pipe2 [$flags] |
|
|
2507 | |
|
|
2508 | This is a direct interface to the Linux L<pipe2(2)> system call. If |
|
|
2509 | C<$flags> is missing or C<0>, then this should be the same as a call to |
|
|
2510 | perl's built-in C<pipe> function and create a new pipe, and works on |
|
|
2511 | systems that lack the pipe2 syscall. On win32, this case invokes C<_pipe |
|
|
2512 | (..., 4096, O_BINARY)>. |
|
|
2513 | |
|
|
2514 | If C<$flags> is non-zero, it tries to invoke the pipe2 system call with |
|
|
2515 | the given flags (Linux 2.6.27, glibc 2.9). |
|
|
2516 | |
|
|
2517 | On success, the read and write file handles are returned. |
|
|
2518 | |
|
|
2519 | On error, nothing will be returned. If the pipe2 syscall is missing and |
|
|
2520 | C<$flags> is non-zero, fails with C<ENOSYS>. |
|
|
2521 | |
|
|
2522 | Please refer to L<pipe2(2)> for more info on the C<$flags>, but at the |
|
|
2523 | time of this writing, C<IO::AIO::O_CLOEXEC>, C<IO::AIO::O_NONBLOCK> and |
|
|
2524 | C<IO::AIO::O_DIRECT> (Linux 3.4, for packet-based pipes) were supported. |
|
|
2525 | |
|
|
2526 | Example: create a pipe race-free w.r.t. threads and fork: |
|
|
2527 | |
|
|
2528 | my ($rfh, $wfh) = IO::AIO::pipe2 IO::AIO::O_CLOEXEC |
|
|
2529 | or die "pipe2: $!\n"; |
|
|
2530 | |
|
|
2531 | =item $fh = IO::AIO::memfd_create $pathname[, $flags] |
|
|
2532 | |
|
|
2533 | This is a direct interface to the Linux L<memfd_create(2)> system |
|
|
2534 | call. The (unhelpful) default for C<$flags> is C<0>, but your default |
|
|
2535 | should be C<IO::AIO::MFD_CLOEXEC>. |
|
|
2536 | |
|
|
2537 | On success, the new memfd filehandle is returned, otherwise returns |
|
|
2538 | C<undef>. If the memfd_create syscall is missing, fails with C<ENOSYS>. |
|
|
2539 | |
|
|
2540 | Please refer to L<memfd_create(2)> for more info on this call. |
|
|
2541 | |
|
|
2542 | The following C<$flags> values are available: C<IO::AIO::MFD_CLOEXEC>, |

2706 | =head1 EVENT LOOP INTEGRATION |
|
|
2707 | |
|
|
2708 | It is recommended to use L<AnyEvent::AIO> to integrate IO::AIO |
|
|
2709 | automatically into many event loops: |
|
|
2710 | |
|
|
2711 | # AnyEvent integration (EV, Event, Glib, Tk, POE, urxvt, pureperl...) |
|
|
2712 | use AnyEvent::AIO; |
|
|
2713 | |
|
|
2714 | You can also integrate IO::AIO manually into many event loops, here are |
|
|
2715 | some examples of how to do this: |
|
|
2716 | |
|
|
2717 | # EV integration |
|
|
2718 | my $aio_w = EV::io IO::AIO::poll_fileno, EV::READ, \&IO::AIO::poll_cb; |
|
|
2719 | |
|
|
2720 | # Event integration |
|
|
2721 | Event->io (fd => IO::AIO::poll_fileno, |
|
|
2722 | poll => 'r', |
|
|
2723 | cb => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb); |
|
|
2724 | |
|
|
2725 | # Glib/Gtk2 integration |
|
|
2726 | add_watch Glib::IO IO::AIO::poll_fileno, |
|
|
2727 | in => sub { IO::AIO::poll_cb; 1 }; |
|
|
2728 | |
|
|
2729 | # Tk integration |
|
|
2730 | Tk::Event::IO->fileevent (IO::AIO::poll_fileno, "", |
|
|
2731 | readable => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb); |
|
|
2732 | |
|
|
2733 | # Danga::Socket integration |
|
|
2734 | Danga::Socket->AddOtherFds (IO::AIO::poll_fileno => |
|
|
2735 | \&IO::AIO::poll_cb); |

1108 | =head2 FORK BEHAVIOUR |
2737 | =head2 FORK BEHAVIOUR |
1109 | |
2738 | |
1110 | This module should do "the right thing" when the process using it forks: |
2739 | Usage of pthreads in a program changes the semantics of fork |
|
|
2740 | considerably. Specifically, only async-safe functions can be called after |
|
|
2741 | fork. Perl doesn't know about this, so in general, you cannot call fork |
|
|
2742 | with defined behaviour in perl if pthreads are involved. IO::AIO uses |
|
|
2743 | pthreads, so this applies, but many other extensions and (for inexplicable |
|
|
2744 | reasons) perl itself often is linked against pthreads, so this limitation |
|
|
2745 | applies to quite a lot of perls. |
1111 | |
2746 | |
1112 | Before the fork, IO::AIO enters a quiescent state where no requests |
2747 | This module no longer tries to fight your OS, or POSIX. That means IO::AIO |
1113 | can be added in other threads and no results will be processed. After |
2748 | only works in the process that loaded it. Forking is fully supported, but |
1114 | the fork the parent simply leaves the quiescent state and continues |
2749 | using IO::AIO in the child is not. |
1115 | request/result processing, while the child frees the request/result queue |
|
|
1116 | (so that the requests started before the fork will only be handled in the |
|
|
1117 | parent). Threads will be started on demand until the limit set in the |
|
|
1118 | parent process has been reached again. |
|
|
1119 | |
2750 | |
1120 | In short: the parent will, after a short pause, continue as if fork had |
2751 | You might get around by not I<using> IO::AIO before (or after) |
1121 | not been called, while the child will act as if IO::AIO has not been used |

|

2761 | happens to work on GNU/Linux and some newer BSD systems. |
|
|
2762 | |
|
|
2763 | The only reasonable use for this function is to call it after forking, if |
|
|
2764 | C<IO::AIO> was used in the parent. Calling it while IO::AIO is active in |
|
|
2765 | the process will result in undefined behaviour. Calling it at any time |
|
|
2766 | will also result in any undefined (by POSIX) behaviour. |

2772 | When a call is documented as "linux-specific" then this means it |

|
|
2774 | availability and compatibility of such calls regardless of the platform |

|
|
2804 | Calls that try to "import" foreign memory areas (such as C<IO::AIO::mmap> |
|
|
2805 | or C<IO::AIO::aio_slurp>) do not work with generic lvalues, such as |
|
|
2806 | non-created hash slots or other scalars I didn't think of. It's best to |
|
|
2807 | avoid such and either use scalar variables or making sure that the scalar |
|
|
2808 | exists (e.g. by storing C<undef>) and isn't "funny" (e.g. tied). |
|
|
2809 | |
|
|
2810 | I am not sure anything can be done about this, so this is considered a |
|
|
2811 | known issue, rather than a bug. |
