libco 设计初衷:为了方便编写 C++ 高性能网络服务。
高性能网络服务主要有两个点:IO 非阻塞 + 多路复用技术。
- libco 使用 hook 技术解决阻塞问题。
- libco 事件驱动使用 (epoll/kevent)。
但是 非阻塞 + 多路复用技术
这个是异步回调实现方式,对用户开发非常不友好,所以协程的引入就是为了解决这个问题:用同步写代码方式实现异步功能,既保证了系统性能,又避免了复杂的异步回调逻辑。
libco 有三大模块:协程管理模块,hook 模块,多路复用事件驱动模块,我们看看这三大模块如何结合起来运转。
文章来源:[libco] libco 工作流程
1. 测试
我们通过 lldb 调试 mysql_real_connect
工作流程,查看 libco 三大模块是如何结合起来的。(github 测试源码)
void* co_handler_mysql_query(void* arg) {
co_enable_hook_sys();
...
if (task->mysql == nullptr) {
task->mysql = mysql_init(NULL);
if (!mysql_real_connect(
task->mysql,
db->host.c_str(),
db->user.c_str(),
db->psw.c_str(),
"mysql",
db->port,
NULL, 0)) {
...
}
}
...
}
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
...
db = new db_t{"127.0.0.1", 3306, "topnews", "topnews2016", "utf8mb4"};
for (i = 0; i < g_co_cnt; i++) {
task = new task_t{i, db, nullptr, nullptr};
co_create(&(task->co), NULL, co_handler_mysql_query, task);
co_resume(task->co);
}
co_eventloop(co_get_epoll_ct(), 0, 0);
...
}
2. 调用流程
- 创建唤醒协程进入工作状态。
- 遇到 connect 阻塞,通过 hook 技术,设置非阻塞。
- 添加 fd 事件到事件驱动。
- 将本协程切出挂起,等待事件回调唤醒。
- 主协程监控就绪事件,等待通知唤醒工作协程。
co_create -> co_resume -> CoRoutineFunc -> co_handler_mysql_query -> socket -> fcntl(O_NONBLOCK) -> connect -> epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_ADD) -> co_yield
epoll_wait -> co_resume -> co_handler_mysql_query --> epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DELETE)
2.1. hook
mysql_real_connect
为了连接 mysql 服务,创建 socket;socket 函数被 libco 成功“拦截”。

2.2. 非阻塞
在 libco 的 socket 实现函数里,通过 fcntl
将 fd 属性设置为非阻塞(O_NONBLOCK
)。

int fcntl(int fildes, int cmd, ...) {
HOOK_SYS_FUNC(fcntl);
...
switch (cmd) {
...
case F_SETFL: {
int param = va_arg(arg_list, int);
int flag = param;
if (co_is_enable_sys_hook() && lp) {
/* 设置非阻塞。 */
flag |= O_NONBLOCK;
}
ret = g_sys_fcntl_func(fildes, cmd, flag);
if (0 == ret && lp) {
lp->user_flag = param;
}
break;
}
...
};
}
3. 事件驱动
- 子协程通过 epoll_ctl 向 epoll 注册事件。
- 子协程挂起当前协程,让出 CPU。
- 主协程通过
co_eventloop
循环处理:就绪事件 + 时钟超时事件,并切换到事件对应的子协程。 - 子协程处理业务完毕,通过 epoll_ctl 向 epoll 删除注册事件。
3.1. 添加事件

4. 后记
-
协程切换跳来跳去,不明白协程切换原理的同学,感觉比异步回调还难理解。libco 将切换部分逻辑封装起来了,使用者在做业务开发时,基本不需要费脑理解 libco 内部协程调度流程。
-
关于 libco 的时钟和多路复用驱动逻辑实现,其实
libev
实现得不错的,如果能将 libev 和 libco 整合,应该会少一些造轮子的工夫。但是 libev 也有一定的学习成本,据说 libco 处理浮点数有问题,而 libev 时钟基于浮点数,所以某个程度上自己造轮子是可控的,虽然可能有些细节没有考虑到。
