509 * @defgroup tevent_request The tevent request functions.
510 * @ingroup tevent
512 * A tevent_req represents an asynchronous computation.
514 * The tevent_req group of API calls is the recommended way of
515 * programming async computations within tevent. In particular the
516 * file descriptor (tevent_add_fd) and timer (tevent_add_timed) events
517 * are considered too low-level to be used in larger computations. To
518 * read and write from and to sockets, Samba provides two calls on top
519 * of tevent_add_fd: read_packet_send/recv and writev_send/recv. These
520 * requests are much easier to compose than the low-level event
521 * handlers called from tevent_add_fd.
523 * A lot of the simplicity tevent_req has brought to the notoriously
524 * hairy async programming came via a set of conventions that every
525 * async computation programmed should follow. One central piece of
526 * these conventions is the naming of routines and variables.
528 * Every async computation needs a name (sensibly called "computation"
529 * down from here). From this name quite a few naming conventions are
530 * derived.
532 * Every computation that requires local state needs a
533 * @code
534 * struct computation_state {
535 * int local_var;
536 * };
537 * @endcode
538 * Even if no local variables are required, such a state struct should
539 * be created containing a dummy variable. Quite a few helper
540 * functions and macros (for example tevent_req_create()) assume such
541 * a state struct.
543 * An async computation is started by a computation_send
544 * function. When it is finished, its result can be received by a
545 * computation_recv function. For an example how to set up an async
546 * computation, see the code example in the documentation for
547 * tevent_req_create() and tevent_req_post(). The prototypes for _send
548 * and _recv functions should follow some conventions:
550 * @code
551 * struct tevent_req *computation_send(TALLOC_CTX *mem_ctx,
552 * struct tevent_req *ev,
553 * ... further args);
554 * int computation_recv(struct tevent_req *req, ... further output args);
555 * @endcode
557 * The "int" result of computation_recv() depends on the result the
558 * sync version of the function would have, "int" is just an example
559 * here.
561 * Another important piece of the conventions is that the program flow
562 * is interrupted as little as possible. Because a blocking
563 * sub-computation requires that the flow needs to continue in a
564 * separate function that is the logical sequel of some computation,
565 * it should lexically follow sending off the blocking
566 * sub-computation. Setting the callback function via
567 * tevent_req_set_callback() requires referencing a function lexically
568 * below the call to tevent_req_set_callback(), forward declarations
569 * are required. A lot of the async computations thus begin with a
570 * sequence of declarations such as
572 * @code
573 * static void computation_step1_done(struct tevent_req *subreq);
574 * static void computation_step2_done(struct tevent_req *subreq);
575 * static void computation_step3_done(struct tevent_req *subreq);
576 * @endcode
578 * It really helps readability a lot to do these forward declarations,
579 * because the lexically sequential program flow makes the async
580 * computations almost as clear to read as a normal, sync program
581 * flow.
583 * It is up to the user of the async computation to talloc_free it
584 * after it has finished. If an async computation should be aborted,
585 * the tevent_req structure can be talloc_free'ed. After it has
586 * finished, it should talloc_free'ed by the API user.
