1.3 |
This module implements asynchroneous i/o using the means available to |
| 12 |
|
|
linux - clone. It does not hook into the POSIX aio_* functions because |
| 13 |
|
|
linux does not yet support these in the kernel. Instead, a number of |
| 14 |
|
|
threads are started that execute your read/writes and signal their |
| 15 |
|
|
completion. |

Set the minimum number of AIO threads to $nthreads. You I<have> to call |
| 38 |
|
|
this function with a positive number at leats once, otherwise no threads |
| 39 |
|
|
will be started and you aio-operations will seem to hang. |

|
|
Reads or writes C<length> bytes from the specified C<fh> and C<offset> |
| 47 |
|
|
into the scalar given by C<data> and offset C<dataoffset> and calls the |
| 48 |
|
|
callback without the actual number of bytes read (or undef on error). |

=item $fileno = Linux::AIO::poll_fileno |
| 51 |
|
|
|
| 52 |
|
|
Return the request result pipe filehandle. This filehandle must be polled |
| 53 |
|
|
for reading. If the pipe becomes readable you have to call C<poll_cb>. |
| 54 |
|
|
|
| 55 |
|
|
=item Linux::AIO::poll_cb |
| 56 |
|
|
|
| 57 |
|
|
Process all outstanding events on the result pipe. You have to call this |
| 58 |
|
|
regularly. Returns the number of events processed. |
| 59 |
|
|
|

You can use Event to multiplex, e.g.: |
| 61 |
|
|
|
| 62 |
|
|
Event->io(fd => Linux::AIO::poll_fileno, |
| 63 |
|
|
poll => 'r', async => 1, |
| 64 |
|
|
cb => \&Linux::AIO::poll_cb ); |

root |
1.2 |
=item Linux::AIO::nreqs |
| 68 |
|
|
|
| 69 |
|
|
Returns the number of requests currently outstanding. |
