Detailed Description

A class that asynchronously reads from a file descriptor.

This class can be used to start a system thread that reads from a given file descriptor and invokes a given callback when data is received. This class handles thread management automatically but the DoRead() method must be implemented by a subclass.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ FdReader()

ns3::FdReader::FdReader ( )

Constructor.

Definition at line 45 of file unix-fd-reader.cc.

References m_evpipe, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

◆ ~FdReader()

ns3::FdReader::~FdReader ( )

virtual

Destructor.

References NS_LOG_FUNCTION, and Stop().

Member Function Documentation

◆ DestroyEvent()

void ns3::FdReader::DestroyEvent ( void )

private

Event handler scheduled for destroy time to halt the thread.

Definition at line 112 of file unix-fd-reader.cc.

References NS_LOG_FUNCTION, Stop(), and ns3::SimpleRefCount< FdReader >::Unref().

Referenced by Start().

◆ DoRead()

virtual FdReader::Data ns3::FdReader::DoRead ( void )

protectedpure virtual

The read implementation.

The value of m_len returned controls further processing. The callback function is only invoked when m_len is positive; any data read is not processed when m_len is negative; reading stops when m_len is zero.

The management of memory associated with m_buf must be compatible with the read callback.

Returns: A structure representing what was read.

Implemented in ns3::FdNetDeviceFdReader, and ns3::TapBridgeFdReader.

Referenced by Run().

◆ Run()

void ns3::FdReader::Run ( void )

private

The asynchronous function which performs the read.

Definition at line 161 of file unix-fd-reader.cc.

References data, DoRead(), m_evpipe, m_fd, m_readCallback, m_stop, NS_FATAL_ERROR, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

Referenced by Start().

◆ Start()

void ns3::FdReader::Start	(	int	fd,
		Callback< void, uint8_t *, ssize_t >	readCallback
	)

Start a new read thread.

Parameters

[in]	fd	A valid file descriptor open for reading.
[in]	readCallback	A callback to invoke when new data is available.

◆ Stop()

void ns3::FdReader::Stop ( void )

Stop the read thread and reset internal state.

This does not close the file descriptor used for reading.

Definition at line 119 of file unix-fd-reader.cc.

References m_evpipe, m_fd, m_readCallback, m_readThread, m_stop, NS_LOG_FUNCTION, NS_LOG_WARN, ns3::Callback< R, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, T8, T9 >::Nullify(), and zero.
