memcached使用libevent 和 多线程模式
一、libevent的使用
首先我们知道,memcached是使用了iblievet作为网络框架的,而iblievet又是单线程模型的基于linux下epoll事件的异步模型。因此,其基本的思想就是 对可读,可写,超时,出错等事件进行绑定函数,等有其事件发生,对其绑定函数回调。
可以减掉了解一下 libevent基本api调用
- struct event_base *base;
- base = event_base_new();//初始化libevent
event_base_new对比epoll,可以理解为epoll里的epoll_create。
event_base内部有一个循环,循环阻塞在epoll调用上,当有一个事件发生的时候,才会去处理这个事件。其中,这个事件是被绑定在event_base上面的,每一个事件就会对应一个struct event,可以是监听的fd。
其中struct event 使用event_new 来创建和绑定,使用event_add来启用,例如:
- struct event *listener_event;
- listener_event = event_new(base, listener, EV_READ|EV_PERSIST, do_accept, (void*)base);
参数说明:
base:event_base类型,event_base_new的返回值
listener:监听的fd,listen的fd
EV_READ|EV_PERSIST:事件的类型及属性
do_accept:绑定的回调函数
(void*)base:给回调函数的参数
event_add(listener_event, NULL);
对比epoll:
event_new相当于epoll中的epoll_wait,其中的epoll里的while循环,在libevent里使用event_base_dispatch。
event_add相当于epoll中的epoll_ctl,参数是EPOLL_CTL_ADD,添加事件。
注:libevent支持的事件及属性包括(使用bitfield实现,所以要用 | 来让它们合体)
EV_TIMEOUT: 超时
EV_READ: 只要网络缓冲中还有数据,回调函数就会被触发
EV_WRITE: 只要塞给网络缓冲的数据被写完,回调函数就会被触发
EV_SIGNAL: POSIX信号量
EV_PERSIST: 不指定这个属性的话,回调函数被触发后事件会被删除
EV_ET: Edge-Trigger边缘触发,相当于EPOLL的ET模式
事件创建添加之后,就可以处理发生的事件了,相当于epoll里的epoll_wait,在libevent里使用event_base_dispatch启动event_base循环,直到不再有需要关注的事件。
有了上面的分析,结合之前做的epoll服务端程序,对于一个服务器程序,流程基本是这样的:
1. 创建socket,bind,listen,设置为非阻塞模式
2. 创建一个event_base,即
- struct event_base * event_base_new(void)
3. 创建一个event,将该socket托管给event_base,指定要监听的事件类型,并绑定上相应的回调函数(及需要给它的参数)。即
- struct event * event_new(struct event_base *base, evutil_socket_t fd, short events, void (*cb)(evutil_socket_t, short, void *), void *arg)
4. 启用该事件,即
- int event_add(struct event *ev, const struct timeval *tv)
5. 进入事件循环,即
- int event_base_dispatch(struct event_base *event_base)
- /* initialize main thread libevent instance */
- main_base = event_init();
最后会调用
- /* enter the event loop */
- if (event_base_loop(main_base, 0) != 0) {
- retval = EXIT_FAILURE;
- }
在该对象内部循环。不退出。
- static void conn_init(void) {
- freetotal = 200;
- freecurr = 0;
- if ((freeconns = calloc(freetotal, sizeof(conn *))) == NULL) {
- fprintf(stderr, "Failed to allocate connection structures\n");
- }
- return;
- }
- /*
- * Returns a connection from the freelist, if any.
- */
- conn *conn_from_freelist() {
- conn *c;
- pthread_mutex_lock(&conn_lock);
- if (freecurr > 0) {
- c = freeconns[--freecurr];
- } else {
- c = NULL;
- }
- pthread_mutex_unlock(&conn_lock);
- return c;
- }
- typedef struct conn conn;
- struct conn {
- int sfd;
- sasl_conn_t *sasl_conn;
- enum conn_states state;

- struct event event;

- if (sigignore(SIGPIPE) == -1) {
- perror("failed to ignore SIGPIPE; sigaction");
- exit(EX_OSERR);
- }
初始化多线程模型,并且每个线程一个iblievent的事件模型就是调用event_init函数。
- /* start up worker threads if MT mode */
- thread_init(settings.num_threads, main_base);
内部实现不详细。主要是调用pthread_create函数。
- if (settings.port && server_sockets(settings.port, tcp_transport,
- portnumber_file)) {
- vperror("failed to listen on TCP port %d", settings.port);
- exit(EX_OSERR);
- }
- static int server_socket(const char *interface,
- int port,
- enum network_transport transport,
- FILE *portnumber_file)
因为,一个主机可能会有多个网卡,比如双线机房,联通或者电信,因此内部实现会出现以下代码:
- for (next= ai; next; next= next->ai_next) {
- conn *listen_conn_add;
- if ((sfd = new_socket(next)) == -1) {
- /* getaddrinfo can return "junk" addresses,
- * we make sure at least one works before erroring.
- */
- if (errno == EMFILE) {
- /* ...unless we're out of fds */
- perror("server_socket");
- exit(EX_OSERR);
- }
- continue;
- }
而
- static int new_socket(struct addrinfo *ai)
- if (!(listen_conn_add = conn_new(sfd, conn_listening,
- EV_READ | EV_PERSIST, 1,
- transport, main_base))) {
- fprintf(stderr, "failed to create listening connection\n");
- exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
- }
- listen_conn_add->next = listen_conn;
- listen_conn = listen_conn_add;
- static conn *listen_conn = NULL;
- conn *conn_new(const int sfd, enum conn_states init_state,
- const int event_flags,
- const int read_buffer_size, enum network_transport transport,
- struct event_base *base) {
- conn *c = conn_from_freelist();
该函数主要是做了哪些动作呢?
- event_set(&c->event, sfd, event_flags, event_handler, (void *)c);
- event_base_set(base, &c->event);
- c->ev_flags = event_flags;
- if (event_add(&c->event, 0) == -1) {
- if (conn_add_to_freelist(c)) {
- conn_free(c);
- }
- perror("event_add");
- return NULL;
- }
这一步就是,讲sfd上的事件绑定event_handler 函数,就是当有该连接上来的时候有数据进行可读的时候绑定,回调。
- <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">最终event_handler函数会调用</span>
- static void drive_machine(conn *c)
- while (!stop) {
- switch(c->state) {
- case conn_listening:
- addrlen = sizeof(addr);
- if ((sfd = accept(c->sfd, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, &addrlen)) == -1)
- <pre name="code" class="cpp">/*
- * Dispatches a new connection to another thread. This is only ever called
- * from the main thread, either during initialization (for UDP) or because
- * of an incoming connection.
- */
- void dispatch_conn_new(int sfd, enum conn_states init_state, int event_flags,
- int read_buffer_size, enum network_transport transport) {
- CQ_ITEM *item = cqi_new();
- char buf[1];
- int tid = (last_thread + 1) % settings.num_threads;
- LIBEVENT_THREAD *thread = threads + tid;
- last_thread = tid;
- item->sfd = sfd;
- item->init_state = init_state;
- item->event_flags = event_flags;
- item->read_buffer_size = read_buffer_size;
- item->transport = transport;
- cq_push(thread->new_conn_queue, item);
- MEMCACHED_CONN_DISPATCH(sfd, thread->thread_id);
- buf[0] = 'c';
- if (write(thread->notify_send_fd, buf, 1) != 1) {
- perror("Writing to thread notify pipe");
- }
- }
- /* Listen for notifications from other threads */
- event_set(&me->notify_event, me->notify_receive_fd,
- EV_READ | EV_PERSIST, thread_libevent_process, me);
- event_base_set(me->base, &me->notify_event);
- if (event_add(&me->notify_event, 0) == -1) {
- fprintf(stderr, "Can't monitor libevent notify pipe\n");
- exit(1);
- }
- conn *conn_new(const int sfd, enum conn_states init_state,
- const int event_flags,
- const int read_buffer_size, enum network_transport transport,
- struct event_base *base)
同样,调用
- conn *c = conn_from_freelist();
取出一个conn* ,然后进行初始化,这个时候和上文讲到的一样了,知识状态不同了,
- enum conn_states {
- conn_listening, /**< the socket which listens for connections */
- conn_new_cmd, /**< Prepare connection for next command */
- conn_waiting, /**< waiting for a readable socket */
- conn_read, /**< reading in a command line */
- conn_parse_cmd, /**< try to parse a command from the input buffer */
- conn_write, /**< writing out a simple response */
- conn_nread, /**< reading in a fixed number of bytes */
- conn_swallow, /**< swallowing unnecessary bytes w/o storing */
- conn_closing, /**< closing this connection */
- conn_mwrite, /**< writing out many items sequentially */
- conn_max_state /**< Max state value (used for assertion) */
- };
也就是
- static void drive_machine(conn *c)
- /*
- * Sets a connection's current state in the state machine. Any special
- * processing that needs to happen on certain state transitions can
- * happen here.
- */
- static void conn_set_state(conn *c, enum conn_states state) {
- assert(c != NULL);
- assert(state >= conn_listening && state < conn_max_state);
- if (state != c->state) {
- if (settings.verbose > 2) {
- fprintf(stderr, "%d: going from %s to %s\n",
- c->sfd, state_text(c->state),
- state_text(state));
- }
- if (state == conn_write || state == conn_mwrite) {
- MEMCACHED_PROCESS_COMMAND_END(c->sfd, c->wbuf, c->wbytes);
- }
- c->state = state;
- }
- }
到此,网络框架部分已经基本处理完成。起始这个框架是非常简单而且实用的。
