前言

本文是libevent的入门文档。本文不涉及，这个库在某些方面的具体使用。

本文内容来自A tiny introduction to asynchronous IO。通过这篇链接，我们可以了解libevent的基本使用。在开始之前，我们需要一些前置准备：

注释：libevent-文档、libevent-API

libevent-API调用的基本流程

在使用API之前，我们需要了解这三部分：

  1. event_base：event_base是一个事件处理的基础结构，它提供了事件循环的基本框架。可以认为它是对select、epoll等函数的封装，以提供跨平台的支持。
  2. event：event是一个表示某种事件(套接字的读写事件,定时器事件等)的结构体或对象。它保存了事件触发时，回调函数的指针，供event_base调用。事件能被触发的前提时，事件被注册到event_base中，参与循环检查。
  3. event loop：运行event_base,直到没有任何注册事件。

总的来说：创建event对象后，需要将其添加到一个event_base实例中，以便在事件发生时被正确处理。event_base提供了方法来添加、删除和处理事件。当事件发生时，event_base负责调用与之相关联的回调函数。下面时一个简单的伪代码示例：

// 创建 event_base 实例
struct event_base *base = event_base_new();

// 创建一个读事件
struct event *ev = event_new(base, fd, EV_READ | EV_PERSIST, callback, arg);

// 将事件添加到事件循环中
event_add(ev, NULL);

// 开始事件循环
event_base_dispatch(base);

具体的API接口使用，见官方文档。

下面我们来看一个提供ROT13功能的服务端程序。

给事件提供缓冲区

上面的代码中，我们需要为每个连接显示的分配堆栈作为缓冲区，这是麻烦的。

网络异步编程的通常模式是：

  1. 当连接可读时，将数据读取到缓冲区，然后处理。
  2. 将处理结果写入输出缓冲区，然后将连接设置为可写。尽可能多地写入数据。
  3. 写完之后，关闭连接的可写。(因为套接字的输出缓冲区不满的时候，总是可写的。)

Libevent 提供了一个 它的通用机制：Bufferevents。它包含一个底层传输(如套接字)、读缓冲区和写缓冲区缓冲。从底层IO中读取数据到用户层的缓冲区，然后触发读取回调；将需要发送的数据，放入用户层的缓冲区中，libevent会将数据发送出去。每个Bufferevents都有下面四个watermarks：

  • Read low-water mark: 当输入缓冲区存储的数据，比当前设置的低水位多，则调用读取回调。
  • Read high-water mark：当输入缓冲区的数据，达到当前的高水位，缓冲区不再从底层IO去获取更多数据。等待回调函数消耗些数据，缓冲区才有空间继续存放从IO获取来数据。
  • Write low-water mark：当输出缓冲区存储的数据，比当前设置的低水位多，则调用写回调。
  • Write high-water mark：可以暂时不管。具体见官方文档。
