|
916 | =head3 The special problem of disappearing file descriptors |
|
|
917 | |
|
|
918 | Some backends (e.g kqueue, epoll) need to be told about closing a file |
|
|
919 | descriptor (either by calling C<close> explicitly or by any other means, |
|
|
920 | such as C<dup>). The reason is that you register interest in some file |
|
|
921 | descriptor, but when it goes away, the operating system will silently drop |
|
|
922 | this interest. If another file descriptor with the same number then is |
|
|
923 | registered with libev, there is no efficient way to see that this is, in |
|
|
924 | fact, a different file descriptor. |
|
|
925 | |
|
|
926 | To avoid having to explicitly tell libev about such cases, libev follows |
|
|
927 | the following policy: Each time C<ev_io_set> is being called, libev |
|
|
928 | will assume that this is potentially a new file descriptor, otherwise |
|
|
929 | it is assumed that the file descriptor stays the same. That means that |
|
|
930 | you I<have> to call C<ev_io_set> (or C<ev_io_init>) when you change the |
|
|
931 | descriptor even if the file descriptor number itself did not change. |
|
|
932 | |
|
|
933 | This is how one would do it normally anyway, the important point is that |
|
|
934 | the libev application should not optimise around libev but should leave |
|
|
935 | optimisations to libev. |

1498 | Example: To include a library such as adns, you would add IO watchers |
1562 | There are a number of principal ways to embed other event loops or modules |
1499 | and a timeout watcher in a prepare handler, as required by libadns, and |
1563 | into libev. Here are some ideas on how to include libadns into libev |
|
|
1564 | (there is a Perl module named C<EV::ADNS> that does this, which you could |
|
|
1565 | use for an actually working example. Another Perl module named C<EV::Glib> |
|
|
1566 | embeds a Glib main context into libev, and finally, C<Glib::EV> embeds EV |
|
|
1567 | into the Glib event loop). |
|
|
1568 | |
|
|
1569 | Method 1: Add IO watchers and a timeout watcher in a prepare handler, |
1500 | in a check watcher, destroy them and call into libadns. What follows is |
1570 | and in a check watcher, destroy them and call into libadns. What follows |
1501 | pseudo-code only of course: |
1571 | is pseudo-code only of course. This requires you to either use a low |
|
|
1572 | priority for the check watcher or use C<ev_clear_pending> explicitly, as |
|
|
1573 | the callbacks for the IO/timeout watchers might not have been called yet. |

1658 | Method 4: Do not use a prepare or check watcher because the module you |
