线程间通信之eventfd

man手册中的解释：
eventfd()创建了一个“eventfd对象”，通过它能够实现用户态程序间(我觉得这里主要指线程而非进程)的等待/通知机制，以及内核态向用户态通知的机制（未考证）。
此对象包含了一个被内核所维护的计数（uint64_t）, 初始值由initval来决定。

int eventfd(unsigned int initval, int flags);创建一个eventfd文件描述符
int eventfd_read(int fd, eventfd_t *value); 向eventfd中写入一个值
int eventfd_write(int fd, eventfd_t value); 从eventfd中读出一个值

例一、子线程多次写入多个值，主线程一次读出所有值的和

 1 #include <sys/eventfd.h>
 2 #include <unistd.h>
 3 #include <stdlib.h>
 4 #include <stdio.h>
 5 #include <stdint.h>  
 6 
 7 int main(int argc, char**argv[])
 8 {
 9     int efd, j;
10     uint64_t u;
11     ssize_t s;
12     
13     if (argc < 2)
14     {
15         printf("number of argc is wrong!\n");
16         return 0;
17     }
18     
19     efd = eventfd(0,0);
20     if (-1 == efd)
21     {
22         printf("failed to create eventfd\n");
23     }
24     
25     switch(fork())
26     {
27         case 0:
28         {
29             for(j=1; j<argc;j++)
30             {
31                 printf("child writing %s to efd\n", argv[j]);
32                 u = strtoull(argv[j], NULL, 0);
33                 s = write(efd, &u, sizeof(uint64_t));
34                 if (s!=sizeof(uint64_t))
35                 {
36                     printf("write efd failed\n");
37                 }
38             }
39             printf("Child completed write loop\n");
40             exit(0);
41         }
42         default:
43             sleep(2);
44             printf("Parents about to read\n");
45             s = read(efd, &u, sizeof(uint64_t));
46             if (s != sizeof(uint64_t))
47             {
48                 printf("read efd failed\n");
49             }
50             printf("Parents first read %llu (0x%llx) from efd\n", u, u);
51             exit(0);
52         case -1:
53         {
54             printf("fork error\n");
55         }
56     }
57     
58     return 0;
59 }
60 
61 运行结果
62 kane@kanelinux:/mnt/hgfs/kanelinuxshare/eventfd$ ./a.out 1 2 3 4
63 child writing 1 to efd
64 child writing 2 to efd
65 child writing 3 to efd
66 child writing 4 to efd
67 Child completed write loop
68 Parents about to read
69 Parents first read 10 (0xa) from efd
70 
71 如果有写入操作，但是并没有导致初始值变化，则主线程会一直挂在read操作上
72 kane@kanelinux:/mnt/hgfs/kanelinuxshare/eventfd$ ./a.out 0 0 0 0
73 child writing 0 to efd
74 child writing 0 to efd

例二、eventfd可以被epoll监控，一旦有状态变化，可以触发通知

  1 #include <sys/eventfd.h>

 14     uint64_t uiWrite = 1;
 15     
 16     while(1)
 17     {
 18         sleep(2);
 19         if (0 != eventfd_write(g_iEvtfd, uiWrite))
 20         {
 21             printf("child write iEvtfd failed\n");
 22         }    
 23     }
 24 
 25     return;
 26 }

 49     {
 50         printf("failed to create eventfd\n");
 51         return 0;
 52     }
 53     
 54     g_iEvtfd = iEvtfd;
 55     
 56     memset(&stEvent, 0, sizeof(struct epoll_event));
 57     stEvent.events = (unsigned long) EPOLLIN;
 58     stEvent.data.fd = iEvtfd;
 59     iRet = epoll_ctl(iEpfd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, g_iEvtfd, &stEvent);
 60     if (0 != iRet)
 61     {
 62         printf("failed to add iEvtfd to epoll\n");
 63         close(g_iEvtfd);

 66     }
 67     
 68     iRet = pthread_create(&stWthread, NULL, eventfd_child_Task, NULL);
 69     if (0 != iRet)
 70     {

 74     }
 75     
 76     for(;;)
 77     {
 78         iRet = epoll_wait(iEpfd, &stEpEvent, 1, -1);
 79         if (iRet > 0)
 80         {
 81             s = eventfd_read(iEvtfd, &uiRead);
 82             if (s != 0)
 83             {
 84                 printf("read iEvtfd failed\n");
 85                 break;
 86             }
 87             printf("Read %llu (0x%llx) from iEvtfd\n", uiRead, uiRead);

例三、被epoll监控的eventfd，如果在子线程中被多次写入，在主线程中是怎么读的？

#include <sys/eventfd.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>  
#include <sys/epoll.h>  
#include <string.h>  
#include <pthread.h>  

int g_iEvtfd = -1;

void *eventfd_child_Task(void *pArg)
{
    uint64_t uiWrite = 1;
    
        while(1)
        {
            sleep(2);
            eventfd_write(g_iEvtfd, uiWrite);
            eventfd_write(g_iEvtfd, uiWrite);
        }

    return;
}

int main(int argc, char**argv[])
{
    int iEvtfd, j;
    uint64_t uiWrite = 1;
    uint64_t uiRead;
    ssize_t s;
    int iEpfd;
    struct epoll_event stEvent;
    int iRet = 0;
    struct epoll_event stEpEvent;
    pthread_t stWthread;
    
    iEpfd = epoll_create(1);
    if (-1 == iEpfd)
    {
        printf("Create epoll failed.\n");
        return 0;
    }
    
    iEvtfd = eventfd(0,0);
    if (-1 == iEvtfd)
    {
        printf("failed to create eventfd\n");
        return 0;
    }
    
    g_iEvtfd = iEvtfd;
    
    memset(&stEvent, 0, sizeof(struct epoll_event));
    stEvent.events = (unsigned long) EPOLLIN;
    stEvent.data.fd = iEvtfd;
    iRet = epoll_ctl(iEpfd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, g_iEvtfd, &stEvent);
    if (0 != iRet)
    {
        printf("failed to add iEvtfd to epoll\n");
        close(g_iEvtfd);
        close(iEpfd);
        return 0;
    }
    
    iRet = pthread_create(&stWthread, NULL, eventfd_child_Task, NULL);
    if (0 != iRet)
    {
        close(g_iEvtfd);
        close(iEpfd);
        return;
    }
    
    for(;;)
    {
        iRet = epoll_wait(iEpfd, &stEpEvent, 1, -1);
        if (iRet > 0)
        {
            s = eventfd_read(iEvtfd, &uiRead);
            if (s != 0)
            {
                printf("read iEvtfd failed\n");
                break;
            }
            printf("Read %llu (0x%llx) from iEvtfd\n", uiRead, uiRead);
        }
    }
    
    close(g_iEvtfd);
    close(iEpfd);
    return 0;
}

运行结果：
kane@kanelinux:/mnt/hgfs/kanelinuxshare/eventfd$ ./a.out
Read 1 (0x1) from iEvtfd

例一中并没有epoll做监控，
因此在read前，如果eventfd被写多次，在read的时候也是一次全部读出。

注：eventfd中的SEMAPHORE标志用法

* If EFD_SEMAPHORE was not specified and the eventfd counter
has a nonzero value, then a read(2) returns 8 bytes contain‐
ing that value, and the counter's value is reset to zero.

* If EFD_SEMAPHORE was specified and the eventfd counter has a
nonzero value, then a read(2) returns 8 bytes containing the
value 1, and the counter's value is decremented by 1.

通过测试发现。如果eventfd在创建的时候传入EFD_SEMAPHORE 标志，则会按上面man手册中提到的那样，每次在eventfd_read的时候只减一，并不是把值一次性全部读出。见下例：

 1 #include <sys/eventfd.h>

 3 #include <stdlib.h>
