Today the Unix and Windows implementations have similar yet differing
implementations of hooking into OS events and propagating them to any
listening futures. Rather than re-implement the same behavior two
different ways, we should factor out any commonality into a shared
module and keep the Unix/Windows modules focused solely on OS
integrations.
Reusing the same implementation across OS versions also allows for more
consistent behavior between platforms, which also makes squashing bugs
much easier.
This change introduces the `registry` module which handles creating and
initializing a global map of signals/events and their registered
listeners. Each OS specific module is expected to implement the OS hooks
which delegate to invoking the registry module's methods for
distributing the event notifications.
# Use registry module for Windows implementation
Note this still uses the same architecture as previously: a driver task
is spawned by the first registered event, and that task is responsible
for delivering any events to registered futures. (If that first event
loop goes away, all events will deadlock). A solution to this issue will
be explored at a later time.
The signal-hook library got split into lower-level and higher-level
parts. The tokio-signal uses only API from the lower-level one, so it
can depend on it directly.
The only effect of this change is smaller amount of compiled (and
unused) code during compilation. There's no change in the code actually
used.
- Use `Handle::default` over `Handle::current` for consistent semantics
- Make all `windows::Event` constructors lazily invoke `global_init`
so they can be safely constructed off-task
- Don't assume the reactor is alive and event registration will be done
when calling `global_init`
Add windows regression tests. Unfortunately, Windows doesn't have a
reliable way of programmatically sending CTRL_C or CTRL_BREAK events
to a progress, so the tests can only exercise our internal machinery by
invoking the handler that we register with the OS
Fixes#999
* Minimize allocation needed for channels
* Use a newtype for signal ids
* We can just cast the raw pointer to a `usize` and still perform a
simple identity check, without incurring any implications of storing a
raw pointer (e.g. previously Signal was !Sync and had an unsafe impl of
Send, and now it is naturally Sync+Send)
* Broadcast with `try_send` instead of `start_send`
The `Stream::start_send` method uses backpressure and schedules the
current task to be notified whenever the channel has additional room,
which means we'll generate a lot of unnecessary wakeups whenever a
channel gets full
By changing to `try_send` and handling any errors, we ensure the
Driver's task won't get woken up when a Signal finally consumes its
notification, since we're coalescing things anyway
* Don't use tokio-core any more for tests. That one brings tokio from
crates.io instead of the current workspace and two versions of that
don't want to cooperate.
* Guard unix-specific examples on windows.
* Leave CI setup to top-level directory.
