LibEvent快速入门

简介

基本的socket变成是阻塞/同步的,每个操作除非已经完成,出错,或者超时才会返回,这样对于每一个请求,要使用一个线程或者单独的进程去处理,系统资源没有办法支撑大量的请求。posix定义了可以使用异步的select系统调用,但是因为它采用了轮询的方式来判断某个fd是否变成active,效率不高。于是各系统就分别提出了基于异步的系统调用,例如Linux的epoll,由于在内核层面做了支持,所以可以用O(1)的效率查找到active的fd。基本上,libevent就是对这些高效IO的封装,提供统一的API,简化开发。

原理简介

libevent默认情况下是单线程的,可以配置成多线程,每个线程有且只有一个event_base,对应一个struct event_base结构体以及附于其上的事件管理器,用来调度托管给它的一系列event,可以和操作系统的进程管理类比。当一个事件发生后,event_base会在合适的时间,不一定是立即去调用绑定在这个事件上的函数,直到这个函数执行完,再去调度其他的事件。

//创建一个event_base
struct event_base *base = event_base_new();
assert(base != NULL);

event_base内部有一个循环,循环阻塞在epoll等系统调用上,直到有一个/一些时间发生,然后去处理这些事件。当然,这些事件要被绑定在这个event_base上,每个事件对应一个struct event,可以是监听一个fd或者信号量之类的,struct event使用event_new来创建和绑定,使用event_add来将event绑定到event_base中。

// 创建并绑定一个event
struct event* listen_event;

//参数:event_base,监听的对象,需要监听的事件,事件发生后的回调函数,传给回调函数的参数
listen_event = event_new(base, listener, EV_READ | EV_PERSIST, callback_func, (void*)base);
//参数:event,超时时间,NULL表示无超时设置
event_add(listen_event, NULL);

注:libevent支持的事件及属性包括(使用bitfield实现)

  1. EV_TIMEOUT:超时;
  2. EV_READ:只要网络缓冲中还有数据,回调函数就会被触发;
  3. EV_WRITE:只要塞给网络缓冲的数据被写完,回调函数就会被触发;
  4. EV_SIGNAL:POSIX信号量;
  5. EV_PERSIST:不指定这个属性,回调函数被触发后事件会被删除;
  6. EV_ET:Edge-Trigger边缘触发(这个还不懂是什么意思)

然后启动event_base的循环,开始处理事件。循环地启动使用event_base_dispatch,循环将一直持续,找到不再有需要关注的事件,或者是遇到event_loopbreak()/event_loopexit()函数。

//启动循环,开始处理事件
event_base_dispatch(base);

接下来再来关注事件发生时的回调函数callback_func,callback_func的原型如下所示

typedef void(* event_callback_fn)(evutil_socket_t sockfd, short event_type, void *arg)

传给callback_func的是一个监听的fd,监听的事件类型,以及event_new中最后一个参数。在上述程序中,是将event_base传给了callback_func,实际中更常用的是构造一个结构体,把需要传给回调函数的参数都放进来,然后传给event_new,event_new再传给回调函数。

所以总结一下,对于一个服务器而言,流程大致如下:

  1. 获取待监听的内容的fd;
  2. 创建一个event_base;
  3. 创建一个event,指定待监听的fd,待监听事件的类型,以及事件放生时的回调函数及传给回调函数的参数;
  4. 将event添加到event_base的事件管理器中;
  5. 开启event_base的事件处理循环;
  6. (异步)当事件发生的时候,调用前面设置的回调函数。

使用BufferEvent

在上面的代码中,client的cmd中有信息输入时,client直接将数据写入到fd中,server中收到信息后,也是直接将信息写入到fd中,因为fd是非阻塞的,所以不能保证正确。那么需要一个自己管理的缓存来管理自己的数据。那么步骤将稍微有些变化,如下所示:

  1. 设置scokfd为nonblocking;
  2. 使用bufferevent_socket_new创建一个struct bufferevent* bev,关联上面的sockfd,并托管给event_base;
  3. 使用bufferevent_setcb(bev, read_cb, write_cb, error_cb, (void*)arg);
  4. 使用buffevent_enable(bev, EV_READ|EV_WRITE|EV_PERSIST)来启动read/write事件

代码如下所示:

        printf("connection closed\n");
    else if (event & BEV_EVENT_ERROR)
