libev使用方法

1. libev简介

libev是个高性能跨平台的事件驱动框架，支持io事件，超时事件，子进程状态改变通知，信号通知，文件状态改变通知，还能用来实现wait/notify机制。libev对每种监听事件都用一个ev_type类型的数据结构表示，如ev_io, ev_timer, ev_child, ev_async分别用来表示文件监听器, timeout监听器, 子进程状态监听器, 同步事件监听器.

libev支持优先级, libev一次loop收集的事件按优先级先排序, 优先级高的事件回调先执行, 优先级低的后执行, 相同优先级则按事件到达顺序执行. libev优先级从[-2, 2], 默认优先级为0，libev注册watcher的流程如下：

static void type_cb(EV_P_ ev_type *watcher, int revents)
{
	// callback
}

static void ev_test()
{
#ifdef EV_MULTIPLICITY
	struct ev_loop *loop;
#else
	int loop;
#endif
	ev_type *watcher;

	loop = ev_default_loop(0);
	watcher = (ev_type *)calloc(1, sizeof(*watcher));
	assert(loop && watcher);

	ev_type_init(watcher, type_cb, ...);
	ev_start(EV_A_ watcher);

	ev_run(EV_A_ 0);

	/* 资源回收 */
	ev_loop_destroy(EV_A);
	free(watcher);
}

libev注册watcher可以分为四个步骤：

创建一个loop和watcher
初始化watcher，主要设置callback函数和定义watcher的参数
激活watcher
启动libev，开始loop收集事件

2. ev_io

libev内部使用后端select, poll, epoll(linux专有), kqueue(drawin), port(solaris10)实现io事件监听, 用户可以指定操作系统支持的后端或者由libev自动选择使用哪个后端，如linux平台上用户可以强制指定libev使用select作为后端。libev支持单例模式和多例模式, 假设我们链接的是多例模式的libev库, 且watcher使用默认优先级0.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#include <ev.h>

static void io_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_io *watcher, int revents)
{
	char buf[1024] = {0};

	/* 参数watcher即注册时的watcher */
	read(watcher->fd, buf, sizeof(buf) - 1);
	fprintf(stdout, "%s
", buf);

	ev_break(loop, EVBREAK_ALL);
}

static void io_test()
{
	struct ev_loop *loop;
	ev_io *io_watcher;

	/* 指定libev使用epoll机制，关闭环境变量对libev影响 */
	loop = ev_default_loop(EVFLAG_NOENV | EVBACKEND_EPOLL);
	io_watcher = (ev_io *)calloc(1, sizeof(*io_watcher));
	assert(("can not alloc memory", loop && io_watcher));

	/* 设置监听标准输入的可读事件和回调函数 */
	ev_io_init(io_watcher, io_cb, STDIN_FILENO, EV_READ);
	ev_io_start(loop, io_watcher);

	/* libev开启loop */
	ev_run(loop, 0);

	/* 资源回收 */
	ev_loop_destroy(loop);
	free(io_watcher);
}

int main(void)
{
	io_test();

	return 0;
}

ev_io_init(ev, cb, fd, event)

ev：ev_io
cb：回调函数
fd：socket，pipe等句柄
event：事件类型(EV_READ/EV_WRITE)

Makefile

target := main
CC := clang
CFLAGS += -g -Wall -fPIC
LDFLAGS += -lev

src += 
	main.c
obj := $(patsubst %.c, %.o, $(src))

$(target):$(obj)
	$(CC) -o $@ $^ $(LDFLAGS)

%.o:%.c
	$(CC) -o $@ -c $< $(CFLAGS)

.PHONY:clean

clean:
	@rm -rf $(target) *.o

libev内部使用一个大的循环来收集各种watcher注册的事件，如果没有注册ev_timer和ev_periodic，则libev内部使用的后端采用59.743s作为超时事件，如果select作为后端，则select的超时设置为59.743s，这样可以降低cpu占用率，对一个fd可以注册的watcher数量不受限(或者说只受内存限制)，比如可以对标准输入的可读事件注册100个watcher，当有用户输入时所有100个watcher的回调都能执行(当然回调中还是只有一个read操作成功)。

3. ev_timer

ev_timer可以用来实现定时器, ev_timer不受墙上时间影响，如设置一个1小时定时器，把当前系统时间调快1小时不能让定时器立刻超时，超时依旧发生在1小时后，如下是一个简单的例子：

static void timer_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_timer *w, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "%fs timeout
", w->repeat);
	ev_break(loop, EVBREAK_ALL);
}

static void timer_test()
{
	struct ev_loop *loop;
	ev_timer *timer_watcher;

	loop = ev_default_loop(EVFLAG_NOENV);
	timer_watcher = calloc(1, sizeof(*timer_watcher));
	assert(("can not alloc memory", loop && timer_watcher));

	ev_timer_init(timer_watcher, timer_cb, 0., 3600.);
	ev_timer_start(loop, timer_watcher);

	ev_run(loop, 0);

	ev_loop_destroy(loop);
	free(timer_watcher);
}

ev_timer_init(ev, cb, ofs, iva)

ev: ev_timer
cb: 回调函数
ofs，iva: 超时事件为(now + ofs + ival * N), now为当前时间，N为正整数

如果ival参数为0，则timer是一次性的定时器，超时后libev自动stop timer
可以在回调中重新设置timer超时，并重新启动timer。

static void timer_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_timer *watcher, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "%fs timeout
", watcher->repeat);
	watcher->repeat += 5.;
	ev_timer_again(loop, watcher);
}

上面介绍了libev是在一个大的循环中监听所有watcher的事件，只有ev_io类型的watcher时，libev后端以59.743s作为超时(如select超时)，这时用户注册一个3s的timer，那么libev会不会因为后端超时太长导致定时器检测非常不准呢？答案是不会，libev保证后端超时时间不大于定时器超时时间，注册一个3s timer，则libev自动调整到3s以内loop一次，这样保证timer超时能及时被检测到，同时也带来更高的cpu占用率。

4. ev_periodic

ev_timer做为定时器很方便，但是对应指定到某时刻发生超时就比较困难，比如每天00:00:00触发超时，每天08：00开灯，18：00关灯等等，ev_periodic可以很好的应付这种场景，ev_periodic基于墙上时间，所以受墙上时间影响，如注册1小时后超时的ev_peroidic，同时系统时间调快1小时，ev_periodic立马能超时。如下例子指定每天凌晨发生超时：

static void periodic_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_periodic *watcher, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "00:00:00 now, time to sleep");
}

ev_tstamp my_schedule(ev_periodic *watcher, ev_tstamp now)
{
	time_t cur;
	struct tm tm;

	time(&cur);
	localtime_r(&cur, &tm);

	tm.tm_wday += 1;
	tm.tm_hour = 0;
	tm.tm_sec = 0;
	tm.tm_min = 0;
	tm.tm_mon -= 1;
	tm.tm_year -= 1900;

	return mktime(&tm);
}

static void periodic_test()
{
	struct ev_loop *loop;
	ev_periodic *periodic_watcher;

	loop = ev_default_loop(0);
	periodic_watcher = (ev_periodic *)calloc(1, sizeof(*periodic_watcher));
	assert(("can not alloc memory", loop && periodic_watcher));

	ev_periodic_init(periodic_watcher, periodic_cb, 0, 0, my_schedule);
	ev_periodic_start(loop, periodic_watcher);

	ev_run(loop, 0);

	ev_loop_destroy(loop);
	free(periodic_watcher);
}

ev_periodic_init(ev, cb, ofs, ival，schedule)

ev：ev_periodic
cb：回调函数
ofs，ival：ofs + ceil((now - ofs) / ival) * ival // now表示当前时间戳
schedule：用户自定义函数，该函数返回下一次ev_periodic超时时间

如果schedule不为空，则ev_periodic超时时间为：ofs + ceil((now - ofs) / ival) * ival，表示从当前时间开始，经过ofs时间后所有能被ival整数的点，注册ev_periodic，ifs = 1, ival = 10, 当前时间为1604649458(2020-10-615:57:38)，则ev_periodic第一次经过2s就发生超时了。
如果schedule存在，则ofs，ival参数被忽略，ev_periodic超时时间由schedule()返回值指定

5. ev_child

libev支持监听子进程状态变化, 如子进程退出, 内部用waitpid去实现, libev限制只能用default loop去监听子进程状态变化, 如果以ev_loop_new()创建的loop则不行, 通过ev_default_loop()创建default loop时libev内部自动注册了SIGCHILD信号处理函数, 需要在自己代码处理SIGCHILD的话，可以在ev_default_loop()之后注册SIGCHIL处理以覆盖libev中的默认处理, 如下是一个简单的例子:

static void child_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_child *watcher, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "pid:%d exit, status:%d
", watcher->rpid, watcher->rstatus);	
}

static void child_test()
{
	pid_t pid;
	struct ev_loop *loop;
	ev_child *child_watcher;

	switch (pid = fork()) {
		case 0:
			sleep(5);
			fprintf(stdout, "child_pid:%d
", getpid());
			exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
		default:
			{
				loop = ev_default_loop(0);
				child_watcher = (ev_child*)calloc(1, sizeof(*child_watcher));
				assert(("can not alloc memory", loop && child_watcher));

				ev_child_init(child_watcher, child_cb, 0, 1);
				ev_child_start(loop, child_watcher);

				ev_run(loop, 0);

				/* 资源回收 */
				ev_loop_destroy(loop);
				free(child_watcher);
			}
	}
}

ev_child_init(ev, cb, pid, trace)

ev：ev_child
cb：回调函数
pid：子进程pid
trace：设置为1
个人觉得libev的default loop默认注册SIGCHILD处理并不好，最好还是在自己代码中做处理。

6. ev_async

可以通过libev的async来实现wait/notify机制, 用户注册多个ev_async监听器, 在其他地方调用ev_async_send()即可触发ev_async注册的回调, libev内部用eventfd(linux平台)和pipe(win32)实现, 个人觉得linux平台上直接用eventfd更完美, 如下是简单例子.

static void *routine(void *args)
{
	static size_t count = 0;
	ev_async *watcher = (ev_async *)args;
	struct ev_loop *loop = (struct ev_loop *)watcher->data;

	while (count++ < 10) {
		ev_async_send(loop, watcher);
		sleep(1);
	}

	return NULL;
}

static void async_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_async *watcher, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "get the order, start move...
");
}

static void async_test()
{
	pthread_t pid;
	struct ev_loop *loop;
	ev_async *async_watcher;

	loop = ev_default_loop(0);
	async_watcher = (ev_async *)calloc(1, sizeof(*async_watcher));
	assert(("can not alloc memory", loop && async_watcher));

	ev_async_init(async_watcher, async_cb);
	ev_async_start(loop, async_watcher);

	async_watcher->data = loop;
	pthread_create(&pid, NULL, routine, async_watcher);

	ev_run(loop, 0);

	/* 资源回收 */
	ev_loop_destroy(loop);
	free(async_watcher);
}

ev_async_init(ev，cb)

ev：ev_async
cb：回调函数

7. ev_prepare/ev_idle

libev每次loop收集各种事件之前都会先调用ev_prepare的回调函数(如果有的话), 如果存在比ev_idle优先级更高的监听有事件待处理, 则ev_idle的事件不会处理, 如存在优先级1,2的事件待处理, 则优先级为1的ev_idle的事件不会被处理, 只有在优先级1,2的所有事件都处理完后才会把ev_idle的事件添加到带处理的事件队列中去.

static void idle_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_idle *watcher, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "no one has higher priority than me now
");
	ev_idle_stop(loop, watcher);
}

static void prepare_cb(struct ev_loop *loop, ev_prepare *watcher, int revents)
{
	fprintf(stdout, "prepare_cb
");
}

static void ev_test()
{
	struct ev_loop *loop;
	ev_io *io_watcher;
	ev_idle *idle_watcher;
	ev_prepare *prepare_watcher;

	loop = ev_default_loop(0);
	prepare_watcher = (ev_prepare *)calloc(1, sizeof(*prepare_watcher));
	idle_watcher = (ev_idle *)calloc(1, sizeof(*idle_watcher));
	io_watcher = (ev_io *)calloc(1, sizeof(*io_watcher));
	assert(("can not alloc memory", loop && prepare_watcher && io_watcher && idle_watcher));

	ev_io_init(io_watcher, io_cb, STDIN_FILENO, EV_READ);
	ev_prepare_init(prepare_watcher, prepare_cb);
	ev_idle_init(idle_watcher, idle_cb);

	ev_prepare_start(loop, prepare_watcher);
	ev_io_start(loop, io_watcher);
	ev_idle_start(loop, idle_watcher);

	ev_run(loop, 0);

	ev_loop_destroy(loop);
	free(io_watcher);
	free(idle_watcher);
	free(prepare_watcher);
}

ev_prepare(ev, cb)/ev_idle(ev, cb)

ev：ev_prepare/ev_idle
cb：回调函数

可以看到每次输入前都先有ev_prepare的回调，只有不存在优先级别idle高的事件待处理时才会处理idle的回调。

8. ev_stat

不建议使用，还不如用个定时器自己去检测文件是否改动

9. ev_fork

注册ev_fork，在libev自动检测到fork调用（开启了EVFLAG_FORKCHECK），或者用户调用ev_loop_fork()通知libev有fork调用时ev_fork回调被触发

10. ev_cleanup

注册ev_cleanup的watcher，在libev销毁时调用ev_cleanup的回调，用来做一些清理工作
