* Fix races. This mostly pulls in changes from rust-lang-nursery/futures-rs#881, but also updates Registration to be a bit more obvious as to what is going on. * Reduce spurious wakeups caused by Reactor This patch adds an ABA guard on token values before registering them with Mio. This allows catching token reuse and avoid the notification. This is needed for OS X as the notification is used to determine that a TCP connect has completed. A spurious notification can potentially cause write failures.
tokio-reactor
Event loop that drives Tokio I/O resources.
Overview
The reactor is the engine that drives asynchronous I/O resources (like TCP and
UDP sockets). It is backed by mio and acts as a bridge between mio and
futures.
The crate provides:
-
Reactoris the main type of this crate. It performs the event loop logic. -
Handleprovides a reference to a reactor instance. -
RegistrationandPollEventedallow third parties to implement I/O resources that are driven by the reactor.
Application authors will not use this crate directly. Instead, they will use the
tokio crate. Library authors should only depend on tokio-reactor if they
are building a custom I/O resource.
