629 * @defgroup tevent_request The tevent request functions.
632 * A tevent_req represents an asynchronous computation.
634 * The tevent_req group of API calls is the recommended way of
635 * programming async computations within tevent. In particular the
636 * file descriptor (tevent_add_fd) and timer (tevent_add_timed) events
637 * are considered too low-level to be used in larger computations. To
638 * read and write from and to sockets, Samba provides two calls on top
639 * of tevent_add_fd: tstream_read_packet_send/recv and tstream_writev_send/recv.
640 * These requests are much easier to compose than the low-level event
641 * handlers called from tevent_add_fd.
643 * A lot of the simplicity tevent_req has brought to the notoriously
644 * hairy async programming came via a set of conventions that every
645 * async computation programmed should follow. One central piece of
646 * these conventions is the naming of routines and variables.
648 * Every async computation needs a name (sensibly called "computation"
649 * down from here). From this name quite a few naming conventions are
652 * Every computation that requires local state needs a
654 * struct computation_state {
658 * Even if no local variables are required, such a state struct should
659 * be created containing a dummy variable. Quite a few helper
660 * functions and macros (for example tevent_req_create()) assume such
663 * An async computation is started by a computation_send
664 * function. When it is finished, its result can be received by a
665 * computation_recv function. For an example how to set up an async
666 * computation, see the code example in the documentation for
667 * tevent_req_create() and tevent_req_post(). The prototypes for _send
668 * and _recv functions should follow some conventions:
671 * struct tevent_req *computation_send(TALLOC_CTX *mem_ctx,
672 * struct tevent_req *ev,
674 * int computation_recv(struct tevent_req *req, ... further output args);
677 * The "int" result of computation_recv() depends on the result the
678 * sync version of the function would have, "int" is just an example
681 * Another important piece of the conventions is that the program flow
682 * is interrupted as little as possible. Because a blocking
683 * sub-computation requires that the flow needs to continue in a
684 * separate function that is the logical sequel of some computation,
685 * it should lexically follow sending off the blocking
686 * sub-computation. Setting the callback function via
687 * tevent_req_set_callback() requires referencing a function lexically
688 * below the call to tevent_req_set_callback(), forward declarations
689 * are required. A lot of the async computations thus begin with a
690 * sequence of declarations such as
693 * static void computation_step1_done(struct tevent_req *subreq);
694 * static void computation_step2_done(struct tevent_req *subreq);
695 * static void computation_step3_done(struct tevent_req *subreq);
698 * It really helps readability a lot to do these forward declarations,
699 * because the lexically sequential program flow makes the async
700 * computations almost as clear to read as a normal, sync program
703 * It is up to the user of the async computation to talloc_free it
704 * after it has finished. If an async computation should be aborted,
705 * the tevent_req structure can be talloc_free'ed. After it has
706 * finished, it should talloc_free'ed by the API user.
708 * tevent_req variable naming conventions:
710 * The name of the variable pointing to the tevent_req structure
711 * returned by a _send() function SHOULD be named differently between
712 * implementation and caller.
714 * From the point of view of the implementation (of the _send() and
715 * _recv() functions) the variable returned by tevent_req_create() is
716 * always called @em req.
718 * While the caller of the _send() function should use @em subreq to
721 * @see tevent_req_create()
722 * @see tevent_req_fn()

2310 * A caller might call this before passing a wrapper event context
2311 * to a tevent_req based *_send() function.
2313 * The wrapper event context might do something like impersonation.
2315 * tevent_context_push_use() must always be used in combination
2316 * with tevent_context_pop_use().
2318 * There is a global stack of currently active/busy wrapper event contexts.
2319 * Each wrapper can only appear once on that global stack!
2320 * The stack size is limited to 32 elements, which should be enough
2321 * for all useful scenarios.
2323 * In addition to an explicit tevent_context_push_use() also
2324 * the invocation of an immediate, timer or fd handler implicitly
2325 * pushes the wrapper on the stack.
2327 * Therefore there are some strict constraints for the usage of
2328 * tevent_context_push_use():
2329 * - It must not be called from within an event handler
2330 * that already acts on the wrapper.
2331 * - tevent_context_pop_use() must be called before
2332 * leaving the code block that called tevent_context_push_use().
2333 * - The caller is responsible ensure the correct stack ordering
2334 * - Any violation of these constraints results in calling
2335 * the abort handler of the given tevent context.
2337 * Calling tevent_context_push_use() on a raw event context
2338 * still consumes an element on the stack, but it's otherwise
2341 * If tevent_context_push_use() returns false, it means
2342 * that the wrapper's before_use() hook returned this failure,
2343 * in that case you must not call tevent_context_pop_use() as
2344 * the wrapper is not pushed onto the stack.
2346 * @param[in] ev The event context to work on.
2348 * @return Success (true) or failure (false).
