Nginx之监控进程和工作进程

1. 函数调用分析

在开启 master 的情况下，多进程模型的下的入口函数为 ngx_master_process_cycle，如下：

int mian()
{
...
    if (ngx_process == NGX_PROCESS_SINGLE)
    {
        /* 单进程模型下的入口函数 */
        ngx_single_process_cycle(cycle);
    }
    else
    {
        /* 多进程模型下的入口函数 */
        ngx_master_process_cycle(cycle);
    }
    
    return 0;
}

1.5 ngx_event_accept

每个监听待连接事件的回调函数都是 ngx_event_accept，一旦监听到客户端发来的连接请求，就会调用该回调方法。

致此，就完成了一个连接的建立.
