@ -38,7 +38,7 @@ Design summary of POSIX wrapper
|
||||
+ All underlying Win32 IO API calls are made asynchronous (non-blocking). Blocking semantics are implemented within the wrapper by an explicit "wait_for_any" for IO to complete.
|
||||
+ FD_CLOEXEC is supported, setting this flag denies inheritance of underlying Windows handle.
|
||||
+ Uses [APCs](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms681951(v=vs.85).aspx) wherever available and minimzing use of [events](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682655(v=vs.85).aspx). This simplifies code and has performance benefits.
|
||||
+ Maintains internal buffers to accommodate a fundamental underlying difference between POSIX and Win32 IO async models - IOReady Vs IOComplete (Ex for a Read operation, POSIX APIs signal when IO is ready - date will be subsequently explicitly read, Win32 APIs signal when IO has completed - data is already copied to a user provided buffer. Though this may be perceived as a performance hit, a validation exercise did not show any major impact. It in fact proved beneficial in reducing kernel calls during "read"s (ex. reading a header, would fetch the entire packet in a single call).
