Linux epoll源码剖析

Linux epoll源码剖析


linux内核版本:2.6.34

在读epoll源码前,需要先了解的知识点:

  1. 等待队列
  2. 文件系统(主要是进程的打开文件描述符表以及struct file)
  3. poll机制
    • 资源注册监听poll() -> poll_wait(struct file *, wait_queue_t *, poll_table *pt) -> pt->qproc(struct file *, wait_queue_t *, poll_table *)
    • 资源就绪通知callback_function(wait_queue_t *, unsigned mode, int sync, void *key)
  4. epoll主要数据结构
    • 一个epoll实例对应一个struct eventpoll(在用户空间以epollfd指向)
    • 一个监听事件对应一个struct epitem(epoll_ctl()操作的就是epitem)

先引用一下《追踪Linux Tcp/Ip代码运行:基于2.6内核》中的一段话:

试想一下,程序员在编写程序时是先定义结构体还是先编写函数?答案可能有两种:第一种是先编写函数,根据函数的过程来产生结构体的需求从而有了结构体的定义;第二种是按照协议规定,如TCP头部和IP头部结构体的定义,这些是协议规定的结构体,因而结构体定义在先,函数编写在后。两种答案虽然相反,可是深入思考一下协议的由来也是经过实践总结而来的,从而得到了从实践到理论的结论。

有时我们需要站在程序员的角度来理解结构体的作用和定义,逆向推理结构体是因何产生、因何而用,这种方式不但提高了理解、阅读代码的水平,更能增强逻辑思维的推理能力,进而面对任意一段代码的时候从容不迫而游刃有余。

linux内核对于epoll惊群的解决方案就是wake up one,但是由于LT模式将epitem重新挂载到就绪队列,导致LT模式的epoll惊群没有被解决...

accept惊群的解决方案

/*
 * 早期linux内核没有解决accept惊群,所以需要用户自己来解决,
 * 解决方案是:每次accept前加锁,accept之后解锁,这样可以
 * 确保任意时间点只有一个线程/进程阻塞在accept()上
 * 现代linux内核解决了accept惊群,解决方案就是我们以下所做,
 * 只是它将锁保护内置在了accept()调用中...
