		70
		71	=head1 REQUEST ANATOMY AND LIFETIME
		72
		73	Every C<aio_*> function creates a request. which is a C data structure not
		74	directly visible to Perl.
		75
		76	If called in non-void context, every request function returns a Perl
		77	object representing the request. In void context, nothing is returned,
		78	which saves a bit of memory.
		79
		80	The perl object is a fairly standard ref-to-hash object. The hash contents
		81	are not used by IO::AIO so you are free to store anything you like in it.
		82
		83	During their existance, aio requests travel through the following states,
		84	in order:
		85
		86	=over 4
		87
		88	=item ready
		89
		90	Immediately after a request is created it is put into the ready state,
		91	waiting for a thread to execute it.
		92
		93	=item execute
		94
		95	A thread has accepted the request for processing and is currently
		96	executing it (e.g. blocking in read).
		97
		98	=item pending
		99
		100	The request has been executed and is waiting for result processing.
		101
		102	While request submission and execution is fully asynchronous, result
		103	processing is not and relies on the perl interpreter calling C<poll_cb>
		104	(or another function with the same effect).
		105
		106	=item result
		107
		108	The request results are processed synchronously by C<poll_cb>.
		109
		110	The C<poll_cb> function will process all outstanding aio requests by
		111	calling their callbacks, freeing memory associated with them and managing
		112	any groups they are contained in.
		113
		114	=item done
		115
		116	Request has reached the end of its lifetime and holds no resources anymore
		117	(except possibly for the Perl object, but its connection to the actual
		118	aio request is severed and calling its methods will either do nothing or
		119	result in a runtime error).

		419	=item aio_readdir $pathname, $callback->($entries)
		420
		421	Unlike the POSIX call of the same name, C<aio_readdir> reads an entire
		422	directory (i.e. opendir + readdir + closedir). The entries will not be
		423	sorted, and will B<NOT> include the C<.> and C<..> entries.
		424

		426	with the filenames.
		427
		428	=item aio_scandir $path, $maxreq, $callback->($dirs, $nondirs)
		429
		430	Scans a directory (similar to C<aio_readdir>) but additionally tries to
		431	separate the entries of directory C<$path> into two sets of names, ones
		432	you can recurse into (directories or links to them), and ones you cannot
		433	recurse into (everything else).
		434
		435	C<aio_scandir> is a composite request that creates of many sub requests_
		436	C<$maxreq> specifies the maximum number of outstanding aio requests that
		437	this function generates. If it is C<< <= 0 >>, then a suitable default
		438	will be chosen (currently 6).
		439
		440	On error, the callback is called without arguments, otherwise it receives
		441	two array-refs with path-relative entry names.
		442
		443	Example:
		444
		445	aio_scandir $dir, 0, sub {
		446	my ($dirs, $nondirs) = @_;
		447	print "real directories: @$dirs\n";
		448	print "everything else: @$nondirs\n";
		449	};
		450
		451	Implementation notes.
		452
		453	The C<aio_readdir> cannot be avoided, but C<stat()>'ing every entry can.
		454
		455	After reading the directory, the modification time, size etc. of the
		456	directory before and after the readdir is checked, and if they match (and
		457	isn't the current time), the link count will be used to decide how many
		458	entries are directories (if >= 2). Otherwise, no knowledge of the number
		459	of subdirectories will be assumed.
		460
		461	Then entries will be sorted into likely directories (everything without
		462	a non-initial dot currently) and likely non-directories (everything
		463	else). Then every entry plus an appended C</.> will be C<stat>'ed,
		464	likely directories first. If that succeeds, it assumes that the entry
		465	is a directory or a symlink to directory (which will be checked
		466	seperately). This is often faster than stat'ing the entry itself because
		467	filesystems might detect the type of the entry without reading the inode
		468	data (e.g. ext2fs filetype feature).
		469
		470	If the known number of directories (link count - 2) has been reached, the
		471	rest of the entries is assumed to be non-directories.
		472
		473	This only works with certainty on POSIX (= UNIX) filesystems, which
		474	fortunately are the vast majority of filesystems around.
		475
		476	It will also likely work on non-POSIX filesystems with reduced efficiency
		477	as those tend to return 0 or 1 as link counts, which disables the
		478	directory counting heuristic.

		595
		596	[EXPERIMENTAL]
		597
		598	This is a very special aio request: Instead of doing something, it is a
		599	container for other aio requests, which is useful if you want to bundle
		600	many requests into a single, composite, request with a definite callback
		601	and the ability to cancel the whole request with its subrequests.
		602
		603	Returns an object of class L<IO::AIO::GRP>. See its documentation below
		604	for more info.
		605
		606	Example:
		607
		608	my $grp = aio_group sub {
		609	print "all stats done\n";
		610	};
		611
		612	add $grp
		613	(aio_stat ...),
		614	(aio_stat ...),
		615	...;
		616
		617	=item aio_nop $callback->()
		618
		619	This is a special request - it does nothing in itself and is only used for
		620	side effects, such as when you want to add a dummy request to a group so
		621	that finishing the requests in the group depends on executing the given
		622	code.
		623
		624	While this request does nothing, it still goes through the execution
		625	phase and still requires a worker thread. Thus, the callback will not
		626	be executed immediately but only after other requests in the queue have
		627	entered their execution phase. This can be used to measure request
		628	latency.
		629
		630	=item IO::AIO::aio_busy $fractional_seconds, $callback->() NOT EXPORTED
		631
		632	Mainly used for debugging and benchmarking, this aio request puts one of

		634
		635	While it is theoretically handy to have simple I/O scheduling requests
		636	like sleep and file handle readable/writable, the overhead this creates is
		637	immense (it blocks a thread for a long time) so do not use this function
		638	except to put your application under artificial I/O pressure.

		653	entering the the B<result> state, but will leave the request otherwise

		663	=head2 IO::AIO::GRP CLASS
		664
		665	This class is a subclass of L<IO::AIO::REQ>, so all its methods apply to
		666	objects of this class, too.
		667
		668	A IO::AIO::GRP object is a special request that can contain multiple other
		669	aio requests.
		670
		671	You create one by calling the C<aio_group> constructing function with a
		672	callback that will be called when all contained requests have entered the
		673	C<done> state:
		674
		675	my $grp = aio_group sub {
		676	print "all requests are done\n";
		677	};
		678
		679	You add requests by calling the C<add> method with one or more
		680	C<IO::AIO::REQ> objects:
		681
		682	$grp->add (aio_unlink "...");
		683
		684	add $grp aio_stat "...", sub {
		685	$_[0] or return $grp->result ("error");
		686
		687	# add another request dynamically, if first succeeded
		688	add $grp aio_open "...", sub {
		689	$grp->result ("ok");
		690	};
		691	};
		692
		693	This makes it very easy to create composite requests (see the source of
		694	C<aio_move> for an application) that work and feel like simple requests.
		695
		696	=over 4
		697
		698	=item * The IO::AIO::GRP objects will be cleaned up during calls to
		699	C<IO::AIO::poll_cb>, just like any other request.
		700
		701	=item * They can be canceled like any other request. Canceling will cancel not
		702	only the request itself, but also all requests it contains.
		703
		704	=item * They can also can also be added to other IO::AIO::GRP objects.
		705
		706	=item * You must not add requests to a group from within the group callback (or
		707	any later time).
		708
		709	=item * This does not harmonise well with C<max_outstanding>, so best do
		710	not combine C<aio_group> with it. Groups and feeders are recommended for
		711	this kind of concurrency-limiting.
		712
		713	=back
		714
		715	Their lifetime, simplified, looks like this: when they are empty, they
		716	will finish very quickly. If they contain only requests that are in the
		717	C<done> state, they will also finish. Otherwise they will continue to
		718	exist.
		719
		720	That means after creating a group you have some time to add requests. And
		721	in the callbacks of those requests, you can add further requests to the
		722	group. And only when all those requests have finished will the the group
		723	itself finish.

		732	be added, including other groups, as long as you do not create circular
		733	dependencies.

		736
		737	=item $grp->result (...)
		738
		739	Set the result value(s) that will be passed to the group callback when all
		740	subrequests have finished. By default, no argument will be passed.
		741
		742	=item feed $grp $callback->($grp)
		743
		744	[VERY EXPERIMENTAL]
		745
		746	Sets a feeder/generator on this group: every group can have an attached
		747	generator that generates requests if idle. The idea behind this is that,
		748	although you could just queue as many requests as you want in a group,
		749	this might starve other requests for a potentially long time. For
		750	example, C<aio_scandir> might generate hundreds of thousands C<aio_stat>
		751	requests, delaying any later requests for a long time.
		752
		753	To avoid this, and allow incremental generation of requests, you can
		754	instead a group and set a feeder on it that generates those requests. The
		755	feed callback will be called whenever there are few enough (see C<limit>,
		756	below) requests active in the group itself and is expected to queue more
		757	requests.
		758
		759	The feed callback can queue as many requests as it likes (i.e. C<add> does
		760	not impose any limits).
		761
		762	If the feed does not queue more requests when called, it will be
		763	automatically removed from the group.
		764
		765	If the feed limit is C<0>, it will be set to C<2> automatically.
		766
		767	Example:
		768
		769	# stat all files in @files, but only ever use four aio requests concurrently:
		770
		771	my $grp = aio_group sub { print "finished\n" };
		772	limit $grp 4;
		773	feed $grp sub {
		774	my $file = pop @files
		775	or return;
		776
		777	add $grp aio_stat $file, sub { ... };
		778	};
		779
		780	=item limit $grp $num
		781
		782	Sets the feeder limit for the group: The feeder will be called whenever
		783	the group contains less than this many requests.
		784
		785	Setting the limit to C<0> will pause the feeding process.

		929	=head2 FORK BEHAVIOUR
		930
		931	This module should do "the right thing" when the process using it forks:
		932
		933	Before the fork, IO::AIO enters a quiescent state where no requests
		934	can be added in other threads and no results will be processed. After
		935	the fork the parent simply leaves the quiescent state and continues
		936	request/result processing, while the child frees the request/result queue
		937	(so that the requests started before the fork will only be handled in the
		938	parent). Threads will be started on demand until the limit set in the
		939	parent process has been reached again.
		940
		941	Temporary memory that was allocated for request processing is not
		942	reclaimed in the child, however. While this is possible in some cases, it
		943	is almost impossible in others (threads are evil you know), so you will
		944	have to live with it. This is around 64k buffer (for sendfile, readahead
		945	emulation) + the size of the directory being scanned (readdir).
		946
		947	In short: the parent will, after a short pause, continue as if fork had
		948	not been called, while the child will act as if IO::AIO has not been used
		949	yet.
		950
		951	=head2 MEMORY USAGE
		952
		953	Per-request usage:
		954
		955	Each aio request uses - depending on your architecture - around 100-200
		956	bytes of memory. In addition, stat requests need a stat buffer (possibly
		957	a few hundred bytes), readdir requires a result buffer and so on. Perl
		958	scalars and other data passed into aio requests will also be locked and
		959	will consume memory till the request has entered the done state.
		960
		961	This is now awfully much, so queuing lots of requests is not usually a
		962	problem.
		963
		964	Per-thread usage:
		965
		966	In the execution phase, some aio requests require more memory for
		967	temporary buffers, and each thread requires a stack and other data
		968	structures (usually around 16k-128k, depending on the OS).
		969
