Function Documentation

int eloop_cancel_timeout (  void(*)(void *eloop_ctx, void *sock_ctx)  handler, void *  eloop_data, void *  user_data )

Cancel timeouts. Parameters: handler  Matching callback function eloop_data  Matching eloop_data or ELOOP_ALL_CTX to match all user_data  Matching user_data or ELOOP_ALL_CTX to match all Returns: Number of cancelled timeouts Cancel matching <handler,eloop_data,user_data> timeouts registered with eloop_register_timeout(). ELOOP_ALL_CTX can be used as a wildcard for cancelling all timeouts regardless of eloop_data/user_data. Definition at line 178 of file eloop.c.

void eloop_destroy (  void   )

Free any resources allocated for the event loop. After calling eloop_destroy(), other eloop_* functions must not be called before re-running eloop_init(). Definition at line 378 of file eloop.c.

void eloop_init (  void *  user_data  )

Initialize global event loop data. Parameters: user_data  Pointer to global data passed as eloop_ctx to signal handlers This function must be called before any other eloop_* function. user_data can be used to configure a global (to the process) pointer that will be passed as eloop_ctx parameter to signal handlers. Definition at line 74 of file eloop.c.

int eloop_register_read_sock (  int  sock, void(*)(int sock, void *eloop_ctx, void *sock_ctx)  handler, void *  eloop_data, void *  user_data )

Register handler for read events. Parameters: sock  File descriptor number for the socket handler  Callback function to be called when data is available for reading eloop_data  Callback context data (eloop_ctx) user_data  Callback context data (sock_ctx) Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure Register a read socket notifier for the given file descriptor. The handler function will be called whenever data is available for reading from the socket. Definition at line 81 of file eloop.c.

int eloop_register_signal (  int  sig, void(*)(int sig, void *eloop_ctx, void *signal_ctx)  handler, void *  user_data )

Register handler for signals. Parameters: sig  Signal number (e.g., SIGHUP) handler  Callback function to be called when the signal is received user_data  Callback context data (signal_ctx) Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure Register a callback function that will be called when a signal is received. The calback function is actually called only after the system signal handler has returned. This means that the normal limits for sighandlers (i.e., only "safe functions" allowed) do not apply for the registered callback. Signals are 'global' events and there is no local eloop_data pointer like with other handlers. The global user_data pointer registered with eloop_init() will be used as eloop_ctx for signal handlers. Definition at line 273 of file eloop.c.

int eloop_register_timeout (  unsigned int  secs, unsigned int  usecs, void(*)(void *eloop_ctx, void *timeout_ctx)  handler, void *  eloop_data, void *  user_data )

Register timeout. Parameters: secs  Number of seconds to the timeout usecs  Number of microseconds to the timeout handler  Callback function to be called when timeout occurs eloop_data  Callback context data (eloop_ctx) user_data  Callback context data (sock_ctx) Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure Register a timeout that will cause the handler function to be called after given time. Definition at line 131 of file eloop.c.

void eloop_run (  void   )

Start the event loop. Start the event loop and continue running as long as there are any registered event handlers. This function is run after event loop has been initialized with event_init() and one or more events have been registered. Definition at line 299 of file eloop.c.

void eloop_terminate (  void   )

Terminate event loop. Terminate event loop even if there are registered events. This can be used to request the program to be terminated cleanly. Definition at line 372 of file eloop.c.

int eloop_terminated (  void   )

Check whether event loop has been terminated. Returns: 1 = event loop terminate, 0 = event loop still running This function can be used to check whether eloop_terminate() has been called to request termination of the event loop. This is normally used to abort operations that may still be queued to be run when eloop_terminate() was called. Definition at line 393 of file eloop.c.

void eloop_unregister_read_sock (  int  sock  )

Unregister handler for read events. Parameters: sock  File descriptor number for the socket Unregister a read socket notifier that was previously registered with eloop_register_read_sock(). Definition at line 108 of file eloop.c.
