kqueue, multithreading and architecture

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hi guys, Thanks a lot, Marco Bambini _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored. Darwin-dev mailing list (Darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/darwin-dev/site_archiver%40lists.app… I am writing a network server that should also be both high performance and scalable, the architecture I decided to adopt is a threaded pool with a kqueue queue for each thread. Each kqueue will receive read notifications for the various connected sockets and then it will be responsible to do the required job. The idea was to have Thread1 blocked in a "listen" loop and each time a new socket connects, Thread1 pass that socket to the kqueue in Thread2. Thread2 is simply blocked waiting for socket events (or busy doing other operations). My question is if that could be a good solution and if I can safely add an event to a kqueue queue owned and created by another thread. Please note that I simplified the solution, because in my case Thread1 could also decided to pass the newly connected socket to Thread3 or Thread4. Please note that I don't want to use the listing socket inside the kqueue owned by the working threads because much of the time they will be busy trying to build a proper reply for an already connected socket. Any suggestion on how to improve that architecture is more than welcomed. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

I'm looking at an application that uses 3 kernel extensions: - 2 KPI Kext (one has a dependency on the IOKit kext below) - 1 IOKit/KPI kext. The KPI kexts are loaded through a launchd script with the kexload -v argument. The Info.plist files of both kexts are globally the same (names differ). On Leopard, when I look at system.log, one of KPI is said to not have any personality while there's no complaint for the other. I'm curious why there's a complaint in one case and none in the other. >From the information I gather, I think it would be better if I remove the IOKit kext and merge it into the kext that depends on it. First thing I'll note is that if kextload is run with -v, it's going to print/log basic warnings and items of note. Explicitly loading an IOKit kext that has no personalities is essentially a one-minute no-op, since that kext will normally not match any devices and be automatically unloaded after that time period. Hence, kextload points out the lack of personalities. If one of the "KPI kexts" (I'm not sure what you mean by that term) A Kernel Extension relying only on the KPIs and not on any unsupported API. One that should not face any trouble in theory when the OS is updated and whose OSBundleLibraries value looks like this: Ah, you had said one of them had a dependency on your IOKit kext. That is why I was confused. Did my explanation about the IOKit kext not needing an explicit load make sense? If it is only serving as a library to the other kext, it will be loaded automatically, and no warning about personalities will occur. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

What do you think about instead of having installXcodebuild figure out all the dependencies and copy them into the BuildRoot, having it generate a tarball of all the dependencies, which can then be inserted as a darwinbuild package through darwinbuild -load xcodebuild or something... The advantage of this approach would be that xcodebuild and it's files could then be tracked and properly listed as a dependency of those projects that require it... _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

file extension & file type

Is there supposed to be a one-to-one relationship between a file extension and a file type ? If one defines a one-to-many relationship (one file extension to many file types) in the info.plist for an application, would one expect problems with a document being assigned the correct icon?

I'd fix it myself, but I don't either :) Correct, it hasn't yet been updated to understand Xcode 3.0's new layout or dependencies. Anyone know what bits and pieces xcodebuild needs w/ v3.0?? Some of the trouble seems to be related to this script /usr/bin/ xcode-select... I suggest invoking xcodebuild similarly to how darwinbuild would invoke it using the darwintrace library (or alternatively using dtruss) to record which files are accessed during the build. This will give an estimate of what's needed in the chroot. ...or... do you think it'd work to install XCode 2.5 and build Leopard packages w/ that??

It compiles great under Leopard, but darwinxref doesn't do anything other than print it's help message. Some Leopard-specific fixes were made on DarwinBuild trunk last night, and the 9A581.plist has been added. We're working on building & uploading roots to enable chrooted building. Copying my pre-build binary from a Tiger system works fine. Think it'd be a problem w/ the program/source, or something to do with the pre-built sqlite.o? Speaking of which, is there anything special about it, or is it just a straight build of sqlite? The problem had nothing to do with sqlite.o. The sqlite.o object file is simply a repackaged libsqlite.a from tiger so that DarwinBuild compiles easily on Panther. On Tiger and Later the pre-installed libsqlite3.dylib is used. Second, here is a list of the projects that aren't currently available from the darwinsource site: Perhaps this is best a question for KVV... is there any chance we'll see these, or are they pretty much just listed for the sake of completeness? We expect to post these over time. From the announcement: (Note: not all sources currently posted, additional updates will be made as sources become available.)
