|

.SH NAME
|
||||
curl_multi_socket_action \- reads/writes available data given an action
|
||||
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
||||
|
||||
CURLMcode curl_multi_socket_action(CURLM * multi_handle,
|
||||
curl_socket_t sockfd,
|
||||
int ev_bitmask,
|
||||
int *running_handles);
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
When the application has detected action on a socket handled by libcurl, it
|
||||
should call \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP with the \fBsockfd\fP argument
|
||||
set to the socket with the action. When the events on a socket are known, they
|
||||
can be passed as an events bitmask \fBev_bitmask\fP by first setting
|
||||
\fBev_bitmask\fP to 0, and then adding using bitwise OR (|) any combination of
|
||||
events to be chosen from CURL_CSELECT_IN, CURL_CSELECT_OUT or
|
||||
CURL_CSELECT_ERR. When the events on a socket are unknown, pass 0 instead, and
|
||||
libcurl will test the descriptor internally. It is also permissible to pass
|
||||
CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT to the \fBsockfd\fP parameter in order to initiate the
|
||||
whole process or when a timeout occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
At return, \fBrunning_handles\fP points to the number
|
||||
of running easy handles within the multi handle. When this number reaches
|
||||
zero, all transfers are complete/done. When you call
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP on a specific socket and the counter
|
||||
decreases by one, it DOES NOT necessarily mean that this exact socket/transfer
|
||||
is the one that completed. Use \fIcurl_multi_info_read(3)\fP to figure out
|
||||
which easy handle that completed.
|
||||
|
||||
The \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP functions inform the application about
|
||||
updates in the socket (file descriptor) status by doing none, one, or multiple
|
||||
calls to the socket callback function set with the
|
||||
\fICURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION(3)\fP option to \fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP. They
|
||||
update the status with changes since the previous time the callback was
|
||||
called.
|
||||
|
||||
Get the timeout time by setting the \fICURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION(3)\fP option
|
||||
with \fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP. Your application will then get called with
|
||||
information on how long to wait for socket actions at most before doing the
|
||||
timeout action: call the \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP function with the
|
||||
\fBsockfd\fP argument set to CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT. You can also use the
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_timeout(3)\fP function to poll the value at any given time, but
|
||||
for an event-based system using the callback is far better than relying on
|
||||
polling the timeout value.
|
||||
.SH "CALLBACK DETAILS"
|
||||
|
||||
The socket \fBcallback\fP function uses a prototype like this
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
|
||||
int curl_socket_callback(CURL *easy, /* easy handle */
|
||||
curl_socket_t s, /* socket */
|
||||
int action, /* see values below */
|
||||
void *userp, /* private callback pointer */
|
||||
void *socketp); /* private socket pointer,
|
||||
\fBNULL\fP if not
|
||||
previously assigned with
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_assign(3)\fP */
|
||||
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
The callback MUST return 0.
|
||||
|
||||
The \fIeasy\fP argument is a pointer to the easy handle that deals with this
|
||||
particular socket. Note that a single handle may work with several sockets
|
||||
simultaneously.
|
||||
|
||||
The \fIs\fP argument is the actual socket value as you use it within your
|
||||
system.
|
||||
|
||||
The \fIaction\fP argument to the callback has one of five values:
|
||||
.RS
|
||||
.IP "CURL_POLL_NONE (0)"
|
||||
register, not interested in readiness (yet)
|
||||
.IP "CURL_POLL_IN (1)"
|
||||
register, interested in read readiness
|
||||
.IP "CURL_POLL_OUT (2)"
|
||||
register, interested in write readiness
|
||||
.IP "CURL_POLL_INOUT (3)"
|
||||
register, interested in both read and write readiness
|
||||
.IP "CURL_POLL_REMOVE (4)"
|
||||
unregister
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
|
||||
The \fIsocketp\fP argument is a private pointer you have previously set with
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_assign(3)\fP to be associated with the \fIs\fP socket. If no
|
||||
pointer has been set, socketp will be NULL. This argument is of course a
|
||||
service to applications that want to keep certain data or structs that are
|
||||
strictly associated to the given socket.
|
||||
|
||||
The \fIuserp\fP argument is a private pointer you have previously set with
|
||||
\fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP and the CURLMOPT_SOCKETDATA option.
|
||||
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
||||
CURLMcode type, general libcurl multi interface error code.
|
||||
|
||||
Before version 7.20.0: If you receive \fICURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM\fP, this
|
||||
basically means that you should call \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP again
|
||||
before you wait for more actions on libcurl's sockets. You don't have to do it
|
||||
immediately, but the return code means that libcurl may have more data
|
||||
available to return or that there may be more data to send off before it is
|
||||
"satisfied".
|
||||
|
||||
The return code from this function is for the whole multi stack. Problems
|
||||
still might have occurred on individual transfers even when one of these
|
||||
functions return OK.
|
||||
.SH "TYPICAL USAGE"
|
||||
1. Create a multi handle
|
||||
|
||||
2. Set the socket callback with CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION
|
||||
|
||||
3. Set the timeout callback with CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION, to get to know what
|
||||
timeout value to use when waiting for socket activities.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Add easy handles with curl_multi_add_handle()
|
||||
|
||||
5. Provide some means to manage the sockets libcurl is using, so you can check
|
||||
them for activity. This can be done through your application code, or by way
|
||||
of an external library such as libevent or glib.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Call curl_multi_socket_action(..., CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT, 0, ...)
|
||||
to kickstart everything. To get one or more callbacks called.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Wait for activity on any of libcurl's sockets, use the timeout value your
|
||||
callback has been told.
|
||||
|
||||
8, When activity is detected, call curl_multi_socket_action() for the
|
||||
socket(s) that got action. If no activity is detected and the timeout expires,
|
||||
call \fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP with \fICURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT\fP.
|
||||
.SH AVAILABILITY
|
||||
This function was added in libcurl 7.15.4, and is deemed stable since 7.16.0.
