Redis的Time Event与File Event的微妙关系

redis里设计了两类事件，一类是file event，一类是time event。

其中file event主要为网络事件而设计，而time event为一些后台事件设计。

在两类事件的管理设计上，file event采用了数组的方式，而time event采用了链表的方式。

为什么两类事件采用的数据结构完全不一样呢？

网络事件主要涉及都fd的查找，相对与链表而言，数组的查找速度要快很多。

而后台时间事件主要涉及到遍历，删除（delete）操作，这种类型的操作如果采用数组的方式，只能是自寻死路。

这两种截然不同的数据结构有何微妙的关系呢？

我们来看一下代码。

/* Process every pending time event, then every pending file event
 * (that may be registered by time event callbacks just processed).
 * Without special flags the function sleeps until some file event
 * fires, or when the next time event occurrs (if any).
 *
 * If flags is 0, the function does nothing and returns.
 * if flags has AE_ALL_EVENTS set, all the kind of events are processed.
 * if flags has AE_FILE_EVENTS set, file events are processed.
 * if flags has AE_TIME_EVENTS set, time events are processed.
 * if flags has AE_DONT_WAIT set the function returns ASAP until all
 * the events that's possible to process without to wait are processed.
 *
 * The function returns the number of events processed. */
int aeProcessEvents(aeEventLoop *eventLoop, int flags)
{
    int processed = 0, numevents;

    /* Nothing to do? return ASAP */
    if (!(flags & AE_TIME_EVENTS) && !(flags & AE_FILE_EVENTS)) return 0;

    /* Note that we want call select() even if there are no
     * file events to process as long as we want to process time
     * events, in order to sleep until the next time event is ready
     * to fire. */
    if (eventLoop->maxfd != -1 ||
        ((flags & AE_TIME_EVENTS) && !(flags & AE_DONT_WAIT))) {
        int j;
        aeTimeEvent *shortest = NULL;
        struct timeval tv, *tvp;

        if (flags & AE_TIME_EVENTS && !(flags & AE_DONT_WAIT))
            shortest = aeSearchNearestTimer(eventLoop);
        if (shortest) {
            long now_sec, now_ms;

            /* Calculate the time missing for the nearest
             * timer to fire. */
            aeGetTime(&now_sec, &now_ms);
            tvp = &tv;
            tvp->tv_sec = shortest->when_sec - now_sec;
            if (shortest->when_ms < now_ms) {
                tvp->tv_usec = ((shortest->when_ms+1000) - now_ms)*1000;
                tvp->tv_sec --;
            } else {
                tvp->tv_usec = (shortest->when_ms - now_ms)*1000;
            }
            if (tvp->tv_sec < 0) tvp->tv_sec = 0;
            if (tvp->tv_usec < 0) tvp->tv_usec = 0;
        } else {
            /* If we have to check for events but need to return
             * ASAP because of AE_DONT_WAIT we need to se the timeout
             * to zero */
            if (flags & AE_DONT_WAIT) {
                tv.tv_sec = tv.tv_usec = 0;
                tvp = &tv;
            } else {
                /* Otherwise we can block */
                tvp = NULL; /* wait forever */
            }
        }

        numevents = aeApiPoll(eventLoop, tvp);
        for (j = 0; j < numevents; j++) {
            aeFileEvent *fe = &eventLoop->events[eventLoop->fired[j].fd];
            int mask = eventLoop->fired[j].mask;
            int fd = eventLoop->fired[j].fd;
            int rfired = 0;

	    /* note the fe->mask & mask & ... code: maybe an already processed
             * event removed an element that fired and we still didn't
             * processed, so we check if the event is still valid. */
            if (fe->mask & mask & AE_READABLE) {
                rfired = 1;
                fe->rfileProc(eventLoop,fd,fe->clientData,mask);
            }
            if (fe->mask & mask & AE_WRITABLE) {
                if (!rfired || fe->wfileProc != fe->rfileProc)
                    fe->wfileProc(eventLoop,fd,fe->clientData,mask);
            }
            processed++;
        }
    }
    /* Check time events */
    if (flags & AE_TIME_EVENTS)
        processed += processTimeEvents(eventLoop);

    return processed; /* return the number of processed file/time events */
}

其中最关键的是

struct timeval tv, *tvp;

numevents = aeApiPoll(eventLoop, tvp);

这两行代码。

tvp是从shortest指针里获得的，作为epoll_wait()的超时时间。

这里的tv让人看得心痒痒，又不能说写得不好。哎~
