Work around an epoll quirk where it sometimes reports just the EPOLLERR
or EPOLLHUP event. In order to force the event loop to move forward,
we merge in the read/write events that the watcher is interested in;
uv__read() and uv__write() will then deal with the error or hangup in
the usual fashion.
Fixes#982.
Drops commit 3780e12 ("fsevents: support japaneese characters in path")
for being quite inapplicable to the master branch. Will be reworked
and applied in a follow-up commit.

Watchers could be stopped between two `kevent()`/`epoll_wait()` calls
(which may happen in the same loop in `uv__io_poll()`), in such cases
`watcher->events` could be stale and won't be updated to
`watcher->pevents`.
Try to use and rely on `watcher->pevents` instead of blindly expecting
`watcher->events` to be always correct.
On some systems, clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) is only serviced from
the vDSO when the __vdso_clock_gettime() wrapper is confident enough
that the vDSO timestamp is highly accurate. When in doubt, it falls
back to making a traditional SYS_clock_gettime system call with all
the overhead that entails.
While a commendable approach, it's overkill for our purposes because we
don't usually need high precision time. That's why this commit switches
to CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE for low-precision timekeeping, provided said
clock has at least a one millisecond resolution.
This change should eliminate the system call on almost all systems,
including virtualized ones, provided the kernel is >= 2.6.32 and glibc
is new enough to find and parse the vDSO.
Before this commit, uv_uptime() returned the nanoseconds as the
fractional part of the uptime. It's a bit inconsistent with the
output on other platforms because those only return whole seconds
(with the possible exception of Windows.)
This commit changes linux-core.c to only return whole seconds.
Ensure that close() system calls don't close stdio file descriptors
because that is almost never the intention.
This is also a partial workaround for a kernel bug that seems to affect
all Linux kernels when stdin is a pipe that gets closed: fd 0 keeps
signalling EPOLLHUP but a subsequent call to epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL)
fails with EBADF. See joyent/node#6271 for details and a test case.
This commit changes the libuv API to return error codes directly rather
than storing them in a loop-global field.
A code snippet like this one:
if (uv_foo(loop) < 0) {
uv_err_t err = uv_last_error(loop);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
}
Should be rewritten like this:
int err = uv_foo(loop);
if (err < 0)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
The rationale for this change is that it should make creating bindings
for other languages a lot easier: dealing with struct return values is
painful with most FFIs and often downright buggy.
Tested most of my compilation in the previous patch on NodeJS
and extracted the patches from there. This patch ensures libuv
will be capable of building standalone as well, both with gyp
and Makefiles.
Build documentation was added to the README.md file.
Some tests are failing, and I have not heavily investigated
the reasons. The failures are generally on errors, and are
likely related to differences between fully POSIX-compatible
systems and android.
RSS is a reflection of the number of pages that a process has mapped.
glibc implements fopen() in terms of mmap() which means that trying
to read the number of mapped pages changes it. Switch to open().
Include the netmask when returning information about the OS network
interfaces.
This commit provides implementations for windows and those unix
platforms using getifaddrs().
AIX was not implemented because it requires the use of ioctls and I do
not have an AIX development/test environment. The windows code was
developed using mingw on winxp as I do not have access to visual studio.
Tested on darwin (ipv4/ipv6) and winxp (ipv4 only). Needs testing on
newer windows using ipv6 and other unix platforms.
Make changes to the process title visible to tools like `ps`.
The argv clobber technique is reasonably portable across Unices;
the common code has been moved into src/unix/proctitle.c and is used
on Linux and OS X. Other platforms will probably follow in the future.
Don't add the io watcher to the watcher queue if the requested change
is effectively a no-op, that is, when the event mask doesn't change.
The exception here is sunos because the event ports backend requires
that watched file descriptors are re-added on every turn of the event
loop.
This commit is a micro-optimization, it does not change the event
loop's observable behavior in any way.
Don't check the return value of epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL). When the
file descriptor is closed, we're potentially racing with another
thread and that means the errno is not a reliable indicator of
the actual error.
The other event mechanisms (kqueue, event ports) are not affected
because:
* kqueue returns either EBADF or ENOENT. Both are handled by libuv.
* event ports rearms all file descriptors on each call to port_getn().
Fixesjoyent/node#4558.
