在Linux上,epoll_wait是否cancellation point,取決于glibc的版本.
好像在glibc-2.4以上版本中才支持.
假如系統epoll_wait不是cancellation point,那么在某線(xiàn)程執行epoll_wait時(shí),另一線(xiàn)程通過(guò)pthread_cancel發(fā)出cancel信號,那么表現為:
1. 在epoll_wait返回之前,線(xiàn)程阻塞該信號,并不響應;
2. 當epoll_wait返回時(shí),線(xiàn)程立即退出(所有資源不會(huì )被釋放),在此之前即使通過(guò)pthread_cleanup_push注冊了銷(xiāo)毀時(shí)的回調函數也不會(huì )被執行;同時(shí),如果有線(xiàn)程阻塞在pthread_join等待此線(xiàn)程退出的話(huà),則會(huì )返回.
測試代碼如下:
| /* test epoll_wait is a cancellation point. glibc-2.4 or later support. fedora 5 support. */
#include <sys/epoll.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h>
void * run (int * events) { struct epoll_event storage;
printf("Wait start.\n"); /* block forever */ epoll_wait(*events, &storage, 1, -1/*10000*/);
printf("Wait stop.\n");
return NULL; }
int main (void) { int events; pthread_t new_thread;
events = epoll_create(1); pthread_create(&new_thread, NULL, (void * (*) (void *))run, &events); /* wait for enter keypress to try pthread cancellation */ getchar(); printf("Cleanup start.\n"); pthread_cancel(new_thread);
/* let's see if this returns or not */ pthread_join(new_thread, NULL); /* if to here, the epoll_wait is a cancellation point. */ printf("Cleanup stop.\n"); close(events); return 0; }
