Detailed Description

Macro Definition Documentation

#define MEMIF_HAVE_CANCEL_POLL_EVENT   1

#include <extras/libmemif/src/libmemif.h>

Send signal to stop concurrently running memif_poll_event().

The function, however, does not wait for memif_poll_event() to stop. memif_poll_event() may still return simply because an event has occured or the timeout has elapsed, but if called repeatedly in an infinite loop, a canceled memif_poll_event() is guaranted to return MEMIF_ERR_POLL_CANCEL in the shortest possible time. This feature was not available in the first release. Use macro MEMIF_HAVE_CANCEL_POLL_EVENT to check if the feature is present.

Returns
memif_err_t

Definition at line 469 of file libmemif.h.

qid- number indentifying queue
bufs- memif buffers
count- number of memif buffers to allocate
count_out- returns number of allocated buffers
size- minimal buffer size, 0 = standard buffer size
Returns
memif_err_t

int memif_control_fd_handler ( int  fd,
uint8_t  events 
)

#include <extras/libmemif/src/libmemif.h>

Memif control file descriptor handler.

Parameters
fd- file descriptor on which the event occured
events- event type(s) that occured

If event occures on any control fd, call memif_control_fd_handler. Internal - lib will "identify" fd (timerfd, lsitener, control) and handle event accordingly.

FD-TYPE - TIMERFD - Every disconnected memif in slave mode will request connection. LISTENER or CONTROL - Handle socket messaging (internal connection establishment). INTERRUPT - Call on_interrupt callback (if set).

Returns
memif_err_t

memif_connection_update_t on_disconnect,
memif_interrupt_t on_interrupt,
void *  private_ctx 
)

#include <extras/libmemif/src/libmemif.h>

Memory interface create function.

Parameters
conn- connection handle for user app
args- memory interface connection arguments
on_connect- inform user about connected status
on_disconnect- inform user about disconnected status
on_interrupt- informs user about interrupt, if set to null user will not be notified about interrupt, user can use memif_get_queue_efd call to get interrupt fd to poll for events
private_ctx- private contex passed back to user with callback

Creates memory interface.

SLAVE-MODE - Start timer that will send events to timerfd. If this fd is passed to memif_control_fd_handler every disconnected memif in slave mode will send connection request. On success new fd is passed to user with memif_control_fd_update_t.

MASTER-MODE - Create listener socket and pass fd to user with memif_cntrol_fd_update_t. If this fd is passed to memif_control_fd_handler accept will be called and new fd will be passed to user with memif_control_fd_update_t.

Returns
memif_err_t

Memif delete.

Parameters
conn- pointer to memif connection handle

disconnect session (free queues and regions, close file descriptors, unmap shared memory) set connection handle to NULL, to avoid possible double free

Returns
memif_err_t

int memif_init ( memif_control_fd_update_t on_control_fd_update,

#include <extras/libmemif/src/libmemif.h>

Memif initialization.

Parameters
on_control_fd_update- if control fd updates inform user to watch new fd
app_name- application name

if param on_control_fd_update is set to NULL, libmemif will handle file descriptor event polling if a valid callback is set, file descriptor event polling needs to be done by user application, all file descriptors and event types will be passed in this callback to user application

Initialize internal libmemif structures. Create timerfd (used to periodically request connection by disconnected memifs in slave mode, with no additional API call). This fd is passed to user with memif_control_fd_update_t timer is inactive at this state. It activates with if there is at least one memif in slave mode.

Returns
memif_err_t
