This completes the set of man pages for sd-event and contains some minor other fixes for other man pages too. The sd_event_set_name(3) man page is renamed to sd_event_source_set_description(3), which is the correct name of the concept today.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_set_priority()</function> may be
|
|
used to set the priority for the event source object specified as
|
|
<parameter>source</parameter>. The priority is specified as an
|
|
arbitrary signed 64bit integer. The priority is initialized to
|
|
<constant>SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_NORMAL</constant> (0) when the event
|
|
source is allocated with a call such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
or
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
and may be changed with this call. If multiple event sources have seen events at the same time, they are dispatched in the order indicated by the
|
|
event sources' priorities. Event sources with smaller priority
|
|
values are dispatched first. As well-known points of reference,
|
|
the constants <constant>SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_IMPORTANT</constant>
|
|
(-100), <constant>SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_NORMAL</constant> (0) and
|
|
<constant>SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_IDLE</constant> (100) may be used to
|
|
indicate event sources that shall be dispatched early, normally or
|
|
late. It is recommended to specify priorities based on these
|
|
definitions, and relative to them -- however, the full 64bit
|
|
signed integer range is available for ordering event
|
|
sources.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Priorities define the order in which event sources that have
|
|
seen events are dispatched. Care should be taken to ensure that
|
|
high-priority event sources (those with negative priority values
|
|
assigned) do not cause starvation of low-priority event sources
|
|
(those with positive priority values assigned).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The order in which event sources with the same priority are
|
|
dispatched is undefined, but the event loop generally tries to
|
|
dispatch them in the order it learnt about events on them. As the
|
|
backing kernel primitives do not provide accurate information
|
|
about the order in which events occured this is not necessarily
|
|
reliable. However, it is guaranteed that if events are seen on
|
|
multiple same-priority event sources at the same time, each one is
|
|
not dispatched again until all others have been dispatched
|
|
once. This behaviour guarantees that within each priority
|
|
particular event sources do not starve or dominate the event
|
|
loop.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_source_get_priority()</function> may be
|
|
used to query the current priority assigned to the event source
|
|
object <parameter>source</parameter>.</para>
