Linux select 机制深入分析

Linux select 机制深入分析
     
     作为IO复用的实现方式。select是提高了抽象和batch处理的级别,不是传统方式那样堵塞在真正IO读写的系统调用上。而是堵塞在select系统调用上,等待我们关注的描写叙述符就绪。当然如今更好的方式是epoll,比方Java中的NIO底层就是用的epoll。这篇文章仅仅是为了搞懂select机制的原理。不看源代码就不能说懂这些IO复用手法。也在面试过程中体会到了,不去实践就会发现知道的永远是皮毛。面试问题:select的最大描写叙述符限制能够改动吗?(有待深入)

用户层API语法:
 /* According to POSIX.1-2001 */
       #include <sys/select.h>

       /* According to earlier standards */
       #include <sys/time.h>
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <unistd.h>

       int select(int nfds, fd_set *readfds, fd_set *writefds,
                  fd_set *exceptfds, struct timeval *timeout);

       void FD_CLR(int fd, fd_set *set);
       int  FD_ISSET(int fd, fd_set *set);
       void FD_SET(int fd, fd_set *set);
       void FD_ZERO(fd_set *set);

       #include <sys/select.h>
      int pselect(int nfds, fd_set *readfds, fd_set *writefds,
                   fd_set *exceptfds, const struct timespec *timeout,
                   const sigset_t *sigmask);

这里的API发生了变化(參见UNPv1 P127),timeout值是同意更新的,这在内核中有体现。


select系统调用的内核源代码主要流程是:sys_select() -> core_sys_select() -> do_select() -> poll_select_copy_remaining。
可代码能够一目了然。
