Libevent 反应堆的初始化

// 默认情况下new eventbase
struct event_base *
event_base_new(void)
{
    struct event_base *base = NULL;
    //初始化系统配置
    struct event_config *cfg = event_config_new(); // 使用默认的配置方法
    if (cfg) {
        //再利用事件的系统配置去初始化base event
        base = event_base_new_with_config(cfg);
        event_config_free(cfg);
    }
    return base;
}

event_config 结构如下

struct event_config {
  //我们知道libevent 支持很多io模型  select poll epoll devpoll win32等
    //这里的entries 是一个队列里面存放着要避免的方法 event_config_entry{ const char *avoid_method, 双向表指针}
    TAILQ_HEAD(event_configq, event_config_entry) entries;
    //初始化占用cpu个数
    int n_cpus_hint;
    //反应堆检查事件的间隔
    struct timeval max_dispatch_interval;
    //指两次事件间隔最多调用事件个数
    int max_dispatch_callbacks;
    //若优先级别低于它就不会执行上两项
    int limit_callbacks_after_prio;
    //支持后台方法的特性 如epoll 模型想要采用ET 即EV_FEATURE_ET 还用延迟关闭等选项
    enum event_method_feature require_features;
    
    enum event_base_config_flag flags;
};

/*
对于event_config的初始化都有相关接口
例如:
  entries 不希望采用的后台模型  event_config_avoid_method() 它会将所有要避免的模型加入队列  event_get_supported_method 得到所有避免的模型
  event_config_set_num_cpus_hint   设置cpu个数
  
  event_config_set_max_dispatch_interval(struct event_config *cfg,
    const struct timeval *max_interval, int max_callbacks,
    int min_priority);
    详细说明一下: 
  Record an interval and/or a number of callbacks after which the event base
  should check for new events.  By default, the event base will run as many
  events are as activated at the higest activated priority before checking
  for new events.  If you configure it by setting max_interval, it will check
  the time after each callback, and not allow more than max_interval to
  elapse before checking for new events.  If you configure it by setting
  max_callbacks to a value >= 0, it will run no more than max_callbacks
  callbacks before checking for new events.
   记录反应堆应该监测新事件时间间隔或者回调函数的个数。 一般来说 反应堆会在检查新事件之前会运行所有的激活的事件。
   如果你配置了max_interval, 它会在每次callback之后检查时间, 保证反应堆每次去check新事件的时间间隔不允许超过最大间隔。
   设置max_callbacks ,意思就是说每次监测新事件的间隔 最多可以有max_callbacks个回调被执行。
   
  This option can decrease the latency of high-priority events, and
  avoid priority inversions where multiple low-priority events keep us from
  polling for high-priority events, but at the expense of slightly decreasing
  the throughput.  Use it with caution!
   这个选项能够减少潜在的高优先级事件, 避免低优先级事件阻碍我们及时处理高优先级事件,但是由于处理激活事件受到了限制
   它的吞吐量将减小, 小心使用。
  @param cfg The event_base configuration object.
  @param max_interval An interval after which Libevent should stop running
      callbacks and check for more events, or NULL if there should be
      no such interval.
  @param max_callbacks A number of callbacks after which Libevent should
      stop running callbacks and check for more events, or -1 if there
      should be no such limit.
      min_priority 事件优先级低于它  就不会执行上面俩个参数的设置
       0 表示任何优先级都会执行    若是1 就是表示优先级是1或在在1之上就会执行
  @param min_priority A priority below which max_interval and max_callbacks
      should not be enforced.  If this is set to 0, they are enforced
      for events of every priority; if it's set to 1, they're enforced
      for events of priority 1 and above, and so on.
  @return 0 on success, -1 on failure.
