BUNDLE_GO(3) libdill Library Functions BUNDLE_GO(3) NAME bundle_go - launches a coroutine within a bundle SYNOPSIS #include <libdill.h> int bundle_go( int bndl, expression); DESCRIPTION This construct launches a coroutine within the specified bundle. For more information about bundles see bundle. The coroutine gets a 1MB stack. The stack is guarded by a non-writeable memory page. Therefore, stack overflow will result in a SEGFAULT rather than overwriting memory that doesn't belong to it. bndl: Bundle to launch the coroutine in. expression: Expression to evaluate as a coroutine. The coroutine is executed concurrently, and its lifetime may exceed the lifetime of the caller coroutine. The return value of the coroutine, if any, is discarded and cannot be retrieved by the caller. Any function to be invoked as a coroutine must be declared with the corou- tine specifier. Use hclose to cancel the coroutine. When the coroutine is canceled all the blocking calls within the coroutine will start failing with ECANCELED er- ror. WARNING: Coroutines will most likely work even without the coroutine speci- fier. However, they may fail in random non-deterministic ways, depending on the code in question and the particular combination of compiler and op- timization level. Additionally, arguments to a coroutine must not be func- tion calls. If they are, the program may fail non-deterministically. If you need to pass a result of a computation to a coroutine, do the computa- tion first, and then pass the result as an argument. Instead of: go(bar(foo(a))); Do this: int a = foo(); go(bar(a)); RETURN VALUE In case of success the function returns 0. In case of error it returns -1 and sets errno to one of the values below. ERRORS * EBADF: Invalid handle. * ECANCELED: Current coroutine was canceled. * ENOMEM: Not enough memory. * ENOTSUP: The handle does not support this operation. EXAMPLE int b = bundle(); bundle_go(b, worker()); bundle_go(b, worker()); bundle_go(b, worker()); /* Give wrokers 1 second to finish. */ bundle_wait(b, now() + 1000); /* Cancel any remaining workers. */ hclose(b); SEE ALSO bundle(3) bundle_go_mem(3) bundle_mem(3) bundle_wait(3) go(3) go_mem(3) yield(3) libdill BUNDLE_GO(3)
