Also, document this functionality more prominently, including with a reference from sd_event_exit(). This is mostly to make things complete, as previously we supported NULL callbacks only in _add_time() and _add_signal(). However, I think this makes snese for IO event sources too (think: when some fd such as a pipe end sees SIGHUP or so, exit), as well as defer or post event sources (i.e. exit once we got nothing else to do). This also adds support for inotify event sources, simply to complete things (I can't see the immediate use, but maybe someone else comes up with it). The only event source type that doesn't allow callback=NULL now are exit callbacks, but for them they make little sense, as the event loop is exiting then anyway.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_add_io()</function> adds a new I/O event
|
|
source to an event loop. The event loop object is specified in the
|
|
<parameter>event</parameter> parameter, the event source object is
|
|
returned in the <parameter>source</parameter> parameter. The
|
|
<parameter>fd</parameter> parameter takes the UNIX file descriptor
|
|
to watch, which may refer to a socket, a FIFO, a message queue, a
|
|
serial connection, a character device, or any other file descriptor
|
|
compatible with Linux
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>epoll</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The
|
|
<parameter>events</parameter> parameter takes a bit mask of events
|
|
to watch for, a combination of the following event flags:
|
|
<constant>EPOLLIN</constant>, <constant>EPOLLOUT</constant>,
|
|
<constant>EPOLLRDHUP</constant>, <constant>EPOLLPRI</constant>,
|
|
and <constant>EPOLLET</constant>, see
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>epoll_ctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for details. The <parameter>handler</parameter> shall reference a
|
|
function to call when the event source is triggered. The
|
|
<parameter>userdata</parameter> pointer will be passed to the
|
|
handler function, and may be chosen freely by the caller. The
|
|
handler will also be passed the file descriptor the event was seen
|
|
on, as well as the actual event flags. It's generally a subset of
|
|
the events watched, however may additionally include
|
|
<constant>EPOLLERR</constant> and <constant>EPOLLHUP</constant>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>By default, an event source will stay enabled
|
|
continuously (<constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant>), but this may be
|
|
changed with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
|
If the handler function returns a negative error code, it will be
|
|
disabled after the invocation, even if the
|
|
<constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant> mode was requested before. Note
|
|
that an event source set to <constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant> will
|
|
fire continuously unless data is read from or written to the file
|
|
descriptor to reset the mask of events seen.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Setting the I/O event mask to watch for to 0 does not mean
|
|
that the event source won't be triggered anymore, as
|
|
<constant>EPOLLHUP</constant> and <constant>EPOLLERR</constant>
|
|
may be triggered even with a zero event mask. To temporarily
|
|
disable an I/O event source use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant> instead.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To destroy an event source object use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
but note that the event source is only removed from the event loop
|
|
when all references to the event source are dropped. To make sure
|
|
an event source does not fire anymore, even if it is still referenced,
|
|
disable the event source using
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the second parameter of
|
|
<function>sd_event_add_io()</function> is
|
|
<constant>NULL</constant> no reference to the event source object
|
|
is returned. In this case the event source is considered
|
|
"floating", and will be destroyed implicitly when the event loop
|
|
itself is destroyed.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the <parameter>handler</parameter> to <function>sd_event_add_io()</function> is
|
|
<constant>NULL</constant>, and the event source fires, this will be considered a request to exit the
|
|
event loop. In this case, the <parameter>userdata</parameter> parameter, cast to an integer, is passed as
|
|
the exit code parameter to
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that this call does not take possession of the file descriptor passed in, ownership (and thus
|
|
the duty to close it when it is no longer needed) remains with the caller. However, with the
|
|
<function>sd_event_source_set_io_fd_own()</function> call (see below) the event source may optionally
|
|
take ownership of the file descriptor after the event source has been created. In that case the file
|
|
descriptor is closed automatically as soon as the event source is released.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is recommended to use
|
|
<function>sd_event_add_io()</function> only in conjunction with
|
|
file descriptors that have <constant>O_NONBLOCK</constant> set, to
|
|
ensure that all I/O operations from invoked handlers are properly
|
|
asynchronous and non-blocking. Using file descriptors without
|
|
<constant>O_NONBLOCK</constant> might result in unexpected
|
|
starvation of other event sources. See
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>fcntl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for details on enabling <constant>O_NONBLOCK</constant> mode.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_get_io_events()</function> retrieves
|
|
the configured mask of watched I/O events of an event source created
|
|
previously with <function>sd_event_add_io()</function>. It takes
|
|
the event source object and a pointer to a variable to store the
|
|
mask in.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_set_io_events()</function>
|
|
configures the mask of watched I/O events of an event source created
|
|
previously with <function>sd_event_add_io()</function>. It takes the
|
|
event source object and the new event mask.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_get_io_revents()</function>
|
|
retrieves the I/O event mask of currently seen but undispatched
|
|
events from an event source created previously with
|
|
<function>sd_event_add_io()</function>. It takes the event source
|
|
object and a pointer to a variable to store the event mask
|
|
in. When called from a handler function on the handler's event
|
|
source object this will return the same mask as passed to the
|
|
handler's <parameter>revents</parameter> parameter. This call is
|
|
primarily useful to check for undispatched events of an event
|
|
source from the handler of an unrelated (possibly higher priority)
|
|
event source. Note the relation between
|
|
<function>sd_event_source_get_pending()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_event_source_get_io_revents()</function>: both
|
|
functions will report non-zero results when there's an event
|
|
pending for the event source, but the former applies to all event
|
|
source types, the latter only to I/O event sources.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_get_io_fd()</function> retrieves
|
|
the UNIX file descriptor of an event source created previously
|
|
with <function>sd_event_add_io()</function>. It takes the event
|
|
source object and returns the non-negative file descriptor
|
|
or a negative error number on error (see below).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_set_io_fd()</function>
|
|
changes the UNIX file descriptor of an I/O event source created
|
|
previously with <function>sd_event_add_io()</function>. It takes
|
|
the event source object and the new file descriptor.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_set_io_fd_own()</function> controls whether the file descriptor of the event source
|
|
shall be closed automatically when the event source is freed, i.e. whether it shall be considered 'owned' by the
|
|
event source object. By default it is not closed automatically, and the application has to do this on its own. The
|
|
<parameter>b</parameter> parameter is a boolean parameter: if zero, the file descriptor is not closed automatically
|
|
when the event source is freed, otherwise it is closed.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_get_io_fd_own()</function> may be used to query the current setting of the file
|
|
descriptor ownership boolean flag as set with <function>sd_event_source_set_io_fd_own()</function>. It returns
|
|
positive if the file descriptor is closed automatically when the event source is destroyed, zero if not, and
|
|
negative on error.</para>
