This reverts commit 7a49ebb65edb69aa03a88466861775989cbcbbeb.
The commit conflicted with another change that was merged, causing CI to fail. The public API
also requires a bit more refinement (#833) and Tokio crates need to be released.
This also bumps a number of sub crates:
* tokio-executor (0.1.3)
* tokio-io (0.1.8)
* tokio-reactor (0.1.4)
* tokio-threadpool (0.1.6)
* tokio-timer (0.2.6)
* tokio-udp (0.1.2)
This patch introduces `Timeout`. This new type allows setting a timeout
both using a duration and an instant. Given this overlap with
`Deadline`, `Deadline` is deprecated.
In addition to supporting future timeouts, the `Timeout` combinator is
able to provide timeout functionality to streams. It does this by
applying a duration based timeout to each item being yielded.
The main reason for introducing `Timeout` is that a deadline approach
does not work with streams. Since `Timeout` needed to be introduced
anyway, keeping `Deadline` around does not make sense.
* Remove `counted` field on `timer::Entry`.
It turns out that a better indicator of whether or not the number of
active timeouts should be decremented is if the `Entry` has been
associated with a timer. In other words, if `Entry::inner` can be
upgraded, then the count should be decremented on drop.
* timer: Tweak link between `Delay` and the driver
This tweaks the struct layout / details regarding how a `Delay` instance
is linked to a driver (timer instance). Instead of lazily allocating the
`Entry` (node shared between `Delay` and the timer), `Entry` is
allocated immediately when `Delay` is created. This allows using the
entry store data used by `Delay`.
This is in anticipation of further timer improvements that would
otherwise require the size of `Delay` to grow further. Since an
allocation is already made, the idea is to shrink the size of the
`Delay` struct.
This patch adds a `DelayQueue` to tokio_timer. The `DelayQueue` allows
inserting elements as well as specifying a time at which the element
should be returned to the user. This allows handling more complex
timeout situations.
Currently, the timer uses a `Now` trait to abstract the source of time.
This allows time to be mocked out. However, the current implementation
has a number of limitations as represented by #288 and #296.
The main issues are that `Now` requires `&mut self` which prevents a
value from being easily used in a concurrent environment. Also, when
wanting to write code that is abstract over the source of time, generics
get out of hand.
This patch provides an alternate solution. A new type, `Clock` is
provided which defaults to `Instant::now` as the source of time, but
allows configuring the actual source using a new iteration of the `Now`
trait. This time, `Now` is `Send + Sync + 'static`. Internally, `Clock`
stores the now value in an `Arc<Now>` value, which introduces dynamism
and allows `Clock` values to be cloned and be `Sync`.
Also, the current clock can be set for the current execution context
using the `with_default` pattern.
Because using the `Instant::now` will be the most common case by far, it
is special cased in order to avoid the need to allocate an `Arc` and use
dynamic dispatch.
This patch renames `Sleep` from tokio-timer and the tokio facade to
`Delay`. Given that the future does not actually put anything to sleep,
the `Delay` name feels more appropriate.
Fixes#263
This patch adds a new crate: tokio-timer. This crate provides an
efficient timer implemeentation designed for use in Tokio based
applications.
The timer users a hierarchical hashed timer wheel algorithm with six
levels, each having 64 slots. This allows the timer to have a resolution
of 1ms while maintaining O(1) complexity for insert, removal, and firing
of timeouts.
There already exists a tokio-timer crate. This is a complete rewrite
which solves the outstanding problems with the existing tokio-timer
library.
Closes#146.
