.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm event
|
||||
API provides a mechanism to execute a function when a specific event
|
||||
on a file descriptor occurs or after a given time has passed.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm event
|
||||
API needs to be initialized with
|
||||
.Fn event_init
|
||||
before it can be used.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
In order to process events, an application needs to call
|
||||
.Fn event_dispatch .
|
||||
This function only returns on error, and should replace the event core
|
||||
of the application program.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The function
|
||||
.Fn event_set
|
||||
prepares the event structure
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
to be used in future calls to
|
||||
.Fn event_add
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn event_del .
|
||||
The event will be prepared to call the function specified by the
|
||||
.Fa fn
|
||||
argument with an
|
||||
.Fa int
|
||||
argument indicating the file descriptor, a
|
||||
.Fa short
|
||||
argument indicating the type of event, and a
|
||||
.Fa void *
|
||||
argument given in the
|
||||
.Fa arg
|
||||
argument.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fa fd
|
||||
indicates the file descriptor that should be monitored for events.
|
||||
The events can be either
|
||||
.Va EV_READ ,
|
||||
.Va EV_WRITE ,
|
||||
or both,
|
||||
indicating that an application can read or write from the file descriptor
|
||||
respectively without blocking.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The function
|
||||
.Fa fn
|
||||
will be called with the file descriptor that triggered the event and
|
||||
the type of event which will be either
|
||||
.Va EV_TIMEOUT ,
|
||||
.Va EV_SIGNAL ,
|
||||
.Va EV_READ ,
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Va EV_WRITE .
|
||||
Additionally, an event which has registered interest in more than one of the
|
||||
preceeding events, via bitwise-OR to
|
||||
.Fn event_set ,
|
||||
can provide its callback function with a bitwise-OR of more than one triggered
|
||||
event.
|
||||
The additional flag
|
||||
.Va EV_PERSIST
|
||||
makes an
|
||||
.Fn event_add
|
||||
persistent until
|
||||
.Fn event_del
|
||||
has been called.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Once initialized, the
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
structure can be used repeatedly with
|
||||
.Fn event_add
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn event_del
|
||||
and does not need to be reinitialized unless the function called and/or
|
||||
the argument to it are to be changed.
|
||||
However, when an
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
structure has been added to libevent using
|
||||
.Fn event_add
|
||||
the structure must persist until the event occurs (assuming
|
||||
.Fa EV_PERSIST
|
||||
is not set) or is removed
|
||||
using
|
||||
.Fn event_del .
|
||||
You may not reuse the same
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
structure for multiple monitored descriptors; each descriptor
|
||||
needs its own
|
||||
.Fa ev .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The function
|
||||
.Fn event_add
|
||||
schedules the execution of the
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
event when the event specified in
|
||||
.Fn event_set
|
||||
occurs or in at least the time specified in the
|
||||
.Fa tv .
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Fa tv
|
||||
is
|
||||
.Dv NULL ,
|
||||
no timeout occurs and the function will only be called
|
||||
if a matching event occurs on the file descriptor.
|
||||
The event in the
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
argument must be already initialized by
|
||||
.Fn event_set
|
||||
and may not be used in calls to
|
||||
.Fn event_set
|
||||
until it has timed out or been removed with
|
||||
.Fn event_del .
|
||||
If the event in the
|
||||
.Fa ev
|
||||
argument already has a scheduled timeout, the old timeout will be
|
||||
replaced by the new one.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The function
|
||||
.Fn event_del
|
||||
will cancel the event in the argument
|
||||
.Fa ev .
|
||||
If the event has already executed or has never been added
|
||||
the call will have no effect.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The functions
|
||||
.Fn evtimer_set ,
|
||||
.Fn evtimer_add ,
|
||||
.Fn evtimer_del ,
|
||||
.Fn evtimer_initialized ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn evtimer_pending
|
||||
are abbreviations for common situations where only a timeout is required.
|
||||
The file descriptor passed will be \-1, and the event type will be
|
||||
.Va EV_TIMEOUT .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The functions
|
||||
.Fn signal_set ,
|
||||
.Fn signal_add ,
|
||||
.Fn signal_del ,
|
||||
.Fn signal_initialized ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn signal_pending
|
||||
are abbreviations.
|
||||
The event type will be a persistent
|
||||
.Va EV_SIGNAL .
|
||||
That means
|
||||
.Fn signal_set
|
||||
adds
|
||||
.Va EV_PERSIST .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
In order to avoid races in signal handlers, the
|
||||
.Nm event
|
||||
API provides two variables:
|
||||
.Va event_sigcb
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Va event_gotsig .
|
||||
A signal handler
|
||||
sets
|
||||
.Va event_gotsig
|
||||
to indicate that a signal has been received.
|
||||
The application sets
|
||||
.Va event_sigcb
|
||||
to a callback function.
|
||||
After the signal handler sets
|
||||
.Va event_gotsig ,
|
||||
.Nm event_dispatch
|
||||
will execute the callback function to process received signals.
|
||||
The callback returns 1 when no events are registered any more.
|
||||
It can return \-1 to indicate an error to the
|
||||
.Nm event
|
||||
library, causing
|
||||
.Fn event_dispatch
|
||||
to terminate with
|
||||
.Va errno
|
||||
set to
|
||||
.Er EINTR .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The function
|
||||
.Fn event_once
|
||||
is similar to
|
||||
.Fn event_set .
|
||||
However, it schedules a callback to be called exactly once and does not
|
||||
require the caller to prepare an
|
||||
.Fa event
|
||||
structure.
|
||||
This function supports
|
||||
.Fa EV_TIMEOUT ,
|
||||
.Fa EV_READ ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fa EV_WRITE .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn event_pending
|
||||
function can be used to check if the event specified by
|
||||
.Fa event
|
||||
is pending to run.
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Va EV_TIMEOUT
|
||||
was specified and
|
||||
.Fa tv
|
||||
is not
|
||||
.Dv NULL ,
|
||||
the expiration time of the event will be returned in
|
||||
.Fa tv .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn event_initialized
|
||||
macro can be used to check if an event has been initialized.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm event_loop
|
||||
function provides an interface for single pass execution of pending
|
||||
events.
|
||||
The flags
|
||||
.Va EVLOOP_ONCE
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Va EVLOOP_NONBLOCK
|
||||
are recognized.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm event_loopexit
|
||||
function exits from the event loop. The next
|
||||
.Fn event_loop
|
||||
iteration after the
|
||||
given timer expires will complete normally (handling all queued events) then
|
||||
exit without blocking for events again. Subsequent invocations of
|
||||
.Fn event_loop
|
||||
will proceed normally.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm event_loopbreak
|
||||
function exits from the event loop immediately.
|
||||
.Fn event_loop
|
||||
will abort after the next event is completed;
|
||||
.Fn event_loopbreak
|
||||
is typically invoked from this event's callback. This behavior is analogous
|
||||
to the "break;" statement. Subsequent invocations of
|
||||
.Fn event_loop
|
||||
will proceed normally.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
It is the responsibility of the caller to provide these functions with
|
||||
pre-allocated event structures.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.Sh EVENT PRIORITIES
|
||||
By default
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
schedules all active events with the same priority.
|
||||
However, sometimes it is desirable to process some events with a higher
|
||||
priority than others.
|
||||
For that reason,
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
supports strict priority queues.
|
||||
Active events with a lower priority are always processed before events
|
||||
with a higher priority.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The number of different priorities can be set initially with the
|
||||
.Fn event_priority_init
|
||||
function.
|
||||
This function should be called before the first call to
|
||||
.Fn event_dispatch .
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn event_priority_set
|
||||
function can be used to assign a priority to an event.
|
||||
By default,
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
assigns the middle priority to all events unless their priority
|
||||
is explicitly set.
|
||||
.Sh THREAD SAFE EVENTS
|
||||
.Nm Libevent
|
||||
has experimental support for thread-safe events.
|
||||
When initializing the library via
|
||||
.Fn event_init ,
|
||||
an event base is returned.
|
||||
This event base can be used in conjunction with calls to
|
||||
.Fn event_base_set ,
|
||||
.Fn event_base_dispatch ,
|
||||
.Fn event_base_loop ,
|
||||
.Fn event_base_loopexit ,
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_base_set
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn event_base_free .
|
||||
.Fn event_base_set
|
||||
should be called after preparing an event with
|
||||
.Fn event_set ,
|
||||
as
|
||||
.Fn event_set
|
||||
assigns the provided event to the most recently created event base.
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_base_set
|
||||
should be called after preparing a bufferevent with
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_new .
|
||||
.Fn event_base_free
|
||||
should be used to free memory associated with the event base
|
||||
when it is no longer needed.
|
||||
.Sh BUFFERED EVENTS
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
provides an abstraction on top of the regular event callbacks.
|
||||
This abstraction is called a
|
||||
.Va "buffered event" .
|
||||
A buffered event provides input and output buffers that get filled
|
||||
and drained automatically.
|
||||
The user of a buffered event no longer deals directly with the IO,
|
||||
but instead is reading from input and writing to output buffers.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
A new bufferevent is created by
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_new .
|
||||
The parameter
|
||||
.Fa fd
|
||||
specifies the file descriptor from which data is read and written to.
|
||||
This file descriptor is not allowed to be a
|
||||
.Xr pipe 2 .
|
||||
The next three parameters are callbacks.
|
||||
The read and write callback have the following form:
|
||||
.Ft void
|
||||
.Fn "(*cb)" "struct bufferevent *bufev" "void *arg" .
|
||||
The error callback has the following form:
|
||||
.Ft void
|
||||
.Fn "(*cb)" "struct bufferevent *bufev" "short what" "void *arg" .
|
||||
The argument is specified by the fourth parameter
|
||||
.Fa "cbarg" .
|
||||
A
|
||||
.Fa bufferevent struct
|
||||
pointer is returned on success, NULL on error.
|
||||
Both the read and the write callback may be NULL.
|
||||
The error callback has to be always provided.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Once initialized, the bufferevent structure can be used repeatedly with
|
||||
bufferevent_enable() and bufferevent_disable().
|
||||
The flags parameter can be a combination of
|
||||
.Va EV_READ
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Va EV_WRITE .
|
||||
When read enabled the bufferevent will try to read from the file
|
||||
descriptor and call the read callback.
|
||||
The write callback is executed
|
||||
whenever the output buffer is drained below the write low watermark,
|
||||
which is
|
||||
.Va 0
|
||||
by default.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_write
|
||||
function can be used to write data to the file descriptor.
|
||||
The data is appended to the output buffer and written to the descriptor
|
||||
automatically as it becomes available for writing.
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_write
|
||||
returns 0 on success or \-1 on failure.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn bufferevent_read
|
||||
function is used to read data from the input buffer,
|
||||
returning the amount of data read.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
If multiple bases are in use, bufferevent_base_set() must be called before
|
||||
enabling the bufferevent for the first time.
|
||||
.Sh NON-BLOCKING HTTP SUPPORT
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
provides a very thin HTTP layer that can be used both to host an HTTP
|
||||
server and also to make HTTP requests.
|
||||
An HTTP server can be created by calling
|
||||
.Fn evhttp_new .
|
||||
It can be bound to any port and address with the
|
||||
.Fn evhttp_bind_socket
|
||||
function.
|
||||
When the HTTP server is no longer used, it can be freed via
|
||||
.Fn evhttp_free .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
To be notified of HTTP requests, a user needs to register callbacks with the
|
||||
HTTP server.
|
||||
This can be done by calling
|
||||
.Fn evhttp_set_cb .
|
||||
The second argument is the URI for which a callback is being registered.
|
||||
The corresponding callback will receive an
|
||||
.Va struct evhttp_request
|
||||
object that contains all information about the request.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
This section does not document all the possible function calls; please
|
||||
check
|
||||
.Va event.h
|
||||
for the public interfaces.
|
||||
.Sh ADDITIONAL NOTES
|
||||
It is possible to disable support for
|
||||
.Va epoll , kqueue , devpoll , poll
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Va select
|
||||
by setting the environment variable
|
||||
.Va EVENT_NOEPOLL , EVENT_NOKQUEUE , EVENT_NODEVPOLL , EVENT_NOPOLL
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Va EVENT_NOSELECT ,
|
||||
respectively.
|
||||
By setting the environment variable
|
||||
.Va EVENT_SHOW_METHOD ,
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
displays the kernel notification method that it uses.
|
||||
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
||||
Upon successful completion
|
||||
.Fn event_add
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn event_del
|
||||
return 0.
|
||||
Otherwise, \-1 is returned and the global variable errno is
|
||||
set to indicate the error.

.Sh HISTORY
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Nm event
|
||||
API manpage is based on the
|
||||
.Xr timeout 9
|
||||
manpage by Artur Grabowski.
|
||||
The port of
|
||||
.Nm libevent
|
||||
to Windows is due to Michael A. Davis.
|
||||
Support for real-time signals is due to Taral.
|
||||
