#define apr_bucket_read (   e,
  str,
  len,
  block 
)    (e)->type->read(e, str, len, block)

Read some data from the bucket.

The apr_bucket_read function returns a convenient amount of data from the bucket provided, writing the address and length of the data to the pointers provided by the caller. The function tries as hard as possible to avoid a memory copy.

Buckets are expected to be a member of a brigade at the time they are read.

In typical application code, buckets are read in a loop, and after each bucket is read and processed, it is moved or deleted from the brigade and the next bucket read.

The definition of "convenient" depends on the type of bucket that is being read, and is decided by APR. In the case of memory based buckets such as heap and immortal buckets, a pointer will be returned to the location of the buffer containing the complete contents of the bucket.

Some buckets, such as the socket bucket, might have no concept of length. If an attempt is made to read such a bucket, the apr_bucket_read function will read a convenient amount of data from the socket. The socket bucket is magically morphed into a heap bucket containing the just-read data, and a new socket bucket is inserted just after this heap bucket.

To understand why apr_bucket_read might do this, consider the loop described above to read and process buckets. The current bucket is magically morphed into a heap bucket and returned to the caller. The caller processes the data, and deletes the heap bucket, moving onto the next bucket, the new socket bucket. This process repeats, giving the illusion of a bucket brigade that contains potentially infinite amounts of data. It is up to the caller to decide at what point to stop reading buckets.

Some buckets, such as the file bucket, might have a fixed size, but be significantly larger than is practical to store in RAM in one go. As with the socket bucket, if an attempt is made to read from a file bucket, the file bucket is magically morphed into a heap bucket containing a convenient amount of data read from the current offset in the file. During the read, the offset will be moved forward on the file, and a new file bucket will be inserted directly after the current bucket representing the remainder of the file. If the heap bucket was large enough to store the whole remainder of the file, no more file buckets are inserted, and the file bucket will disappear completely.

The pattern for reading buckets described above does create the illusion that the code is willing to swallow buckets that might be too large for the system to handle in one go. This however is just an illusion: APR will always ensure that large (file) or infinite (socket) buckets are broken into convenient bite sized heap buckets before data is returned to the caller.

There is a potential gotcha to watch for: if buckets are read in a loop, and aren't deleted after being processed, the potentially large bucket will slowly be converted into RAM resident heap buckets. If the file is larger than available RAM, an out of memory condition could be caused if the application is not careful to manage this.

Parameters:
eThe bucket to read from
strThe location to store a pointer to the data in
lenThe location to store the amount of data read
blockWhether the read function blocks

The one-sentence buzzword-laden overview: Bucket brigades represent a complex data stream that can be passed through a layered IO system without unnecessary copying. A longer overview follows...

A bucket brigade is a doubly linked list (ring) of buckets, so we aren't limited to inserting at the front and removing at the end. Buckets are only passed around as members of a brigade, although singleton buckets can occur for short periods of time.

Buckets are data stores of various types. They can refer to data in memory, or part of a file or mmap area, or the output of a process, etc. Buckets also have some type-dependent accessor functions: read, split, copy, setaside, and destroy.

read returns the address and size of the data in the bucket. If the data isn't in memory then it is read in and the bucket changes type so that it can refer to the new location of the data. If all the data doesn't fit in the bucket then a new bucket is inserted into the brigade to hold the rest of it.

split divides the data in a bucket into two regions. After a split the original bucket refers to the first part of the data and a new bucket inserted into the brigade after the original bucket refers to the second part of the data. Reference counts are maintained as necessary.

setaside ensures that the data in the bucket has a long enough lifetime. Sometimes it is convenient to create a bucket referring to data on the stack in the expectation that it will be consumed (output to the network) before the stack is unwound. If that expectation turns out not to be valid, the setaside function is called to move the data somewhere safer.

copy makes a duplicate of the bucket structure as long as it's possible to have multiple references to a single copy of the data itself. Not all bucket types can be copied.

destroy maintains the reference counts on the resources used by a bucket and frees them if necessary.

Note: all of the above functions have wrapper macros (apr_bucket_read(), apr_bucket_destroy(), etc), and those macros should be used rather than using the function pointers directly.

To write a bucket brigade, they are first made into an iovec, so that we don't write too little data at one time. Currently we ignore compacting the buckets into as few buckets as possible, but if we really want good performance, then we need to compact the buckets before we convert to an iovec, or possibly while we are converting to an iovec.

Function Documentation

apr_brigade_flush void apr_brigade_flush void const char __attribute__ ( (format(printf, 4, 5))  )

Create a new bucket brigade. The bucket brigade is originally empty.

Parameters:
pThe pool to associate with the brigade. Data is not allocated out of the pool, but a cleanup is registered.
listThe bucket allocator to use
Returns:
The empty bucket brigade

Move the buckets from the tail end of the existing brigade b into the brigade a. If a is NULL a new brigade is created. Buckets from e to the last bucket (inclusively) of brigade b are moved from b to the returned brigade a.

Parameters:
bThe brigade to split
eThe first bucket to move
aThe brigade which should be used for the result or NULL if a new brigade should be created. The brigade a will be cleared if it is not empty.
Returns:
The brigade supplied in a or a new one if a was NULL.
Warning:
Note that this function allocates a new brigade if a is NULL so memory consumption should be carefully considered.

Create a new bucket brigade and move the buckets from the tail end of an existing brigade into the new brigade. Buckets from e to the last bucket (inclusively) of brigade b are moved from b to the returned brigade.

Parameters:
bThe brigade to split
eThe first bucket to move
Returns:
The new brigade
Warning:
Note that this function always allocates a new brigade so memory consumption should be carefully considered.

destroy an entire bucket brigade. This includes destroying all of the buckets within the bucket brigade's bucket list.

Parameters:
bThe bucket brigade to destroy

empty out an entire bucket brigade. This includes destroying all of the buckets within the bucket brigade's bucket list. This is similar to apr_brigade_destroy(), except that it does not deregister the brigade's pool cleanup function.

Parameters:
dataThe bucket brigade to clean up
Remarks:
Generally, you should use apr_brigade_destroy(). This function can be useful in situations where you have a single brigade that you wish to reuse many times by destroying all of the buckets in the brigade and putting new buckets into it later.

Partition a bucket brigade at a given offset (in bytes from the start of the brigade). This is useful whenever a filter wants to use known ranges of bytes from the brigade; the ranges can even overlap.

Parameters:
bThe brigade to partition
pointThe offset at which to partition the brigade
after_pointReturns a pointer to the first bucket after the partition
Returns:
APR_SUCCESS on success, APR_INCOMPLETE if the contents of the brigade were shorter than point, or an error code.
Remarks:
if APR_INCOMPLETE is returned, after_point will be set to the brigade sentinel.

Return the total length of the brigade.

Parameters:
bbThe brigade to compute the length of
read_allRead unknown-length buckets to force a size
lengthReturns the length of the brigade (up to the end, or up to a bucket read error), or -1 if the brigade has buckets of indeterminate length and read_all is 0.

Take a bucket brigade and store the data in a flat char*

Parameters:
bbThe bucket brigade to create the char* from
cThe char* to write into
lenThe maximum length of the char array. On return, it is the actual length of the char array.

Creates a pool-allocated string representing a flat bucket brigade

Parameters:
bbThe bucket brigade to create the char array from
cOn return, the allocated char array
lenOn return, the length of the char array.
poolThe pool to allocate the string from.

Split a brigade to represent one LF line.

Parameters:
bbOutThe bucket brigade that will have the LF line appended to.
bbInThe input bucket brigade to search for a LF-line.
blockThe blocking mode to be used to split the line.
maxbytesThe maximum bytes to read. If this many bytes are seen without a LF, the brigade will contain a partial line.

Create an iovec of the elements in a bucket_brigade... return number of elements used. This is useful for writing to a file or to the network efficiently.

Parameters:
bThe bucket brigade to create the iovec from
vecThe iovec to create
nvecThe number of elements in the iovec. On return, it is the number of iovec elements actually filled out.

This function writes a list of strings into a bucket brigade.

Parameters:
bThe bucket brigade to add to
flushThe flush function to use if the brigade is full
ctxThe structure to pass to the flush function
vaA list of strings to add
Returns:
APR_SUCCESS or error code.

This function writes a string into a bucket brigade.

The apr_brigade_write function attempts to be efficient with the handling of heap buckets. Regardless of the amount of data stored inside a heap bucket, heap buckets are a fixed size to promote their reuse.

If an attempt is made to write a string to a brigade that already ends with a heap bucket, this function will attempt to pack the string into the remaining space in the previous heap bucket, before allocating a new heap bucket.

This function always returns APR_SUCCESS, unless a flush function is passed, in which case the return value of the flush function will be returned if used.

Parameters:
bThe bucket brigade to add to
flushThe flush function to use if the brigade is full
ctxThe structure to pass to the flush function
strThe string to add
nbyteThe number of bytes to write
Returns:
APR_SUCCESS or error code

This function writes multiple strings into a bucket brigade.

Parameters:
bThe bucket brigade to add to
flushThe flush function to use if the brigade is full

nvecThe number of entries in iovec
Returns:
APR_SUCCESS or error code

This function writes a string into a bucket brigade.

Parameters:
bbThe bucket brigade to add to

Enable or disable memory-mapping for a FILE bucket (default is enabled)

Parameters:
bThe bucket
enabledWhether memory-mapping should be enabled
Returns:
APR_SUCCESS normally, or an error code if the operation fails

Initialize a bucket containing reference-counted data that may be shared. The caller must allocate the bucket if necessary and initialize its type-dependent fields, and allocate and initialize its own private data structure. This function should only be called by type-specific bucket creation functions.

Parameters:
bThe bucket to initialize
dataA pointer to the private data structure with the reference count at the start

Create a bucket referring to memory on the heap. If the caller asks for the data to be copied, this function always allocates 4K of memory so that more data can be added to the bucket without requiring another allocation. Therefore not all the data may be put into the bucket. If copying is not requested then the bucket takes over responsibility for free()ing the memory.

Parameters:
bufThe buffer to insert into the bucket
nbyteThe size of the buffer to insert.
free_funcFunction to use to free the data; NULL indicates that the bucket should make a copy of the data
listThe freelist from which this bucket should be allocated
Returns:
The new bucket, or NULL if allocation failed

This function simply returns APR_SUCCESS to denote that the bucket does not require anything to happen for its setaside() function. This is appropriate for buckets that have "immortal" data -- the data will live at least as long as the bucket.

Parameters:
dataThe bucket to setaside
poolThe pool defining the desired lifetime of the bucket data

A place holder function that signifies that the split function was not implemented for this bucket

Parameters:
dataThe bucket to split
pointThe location to split the bucket
Returns:
APR_ENOTIMPL

A place holder function that signifies that the copy function was not implemented for this bucket

Parameters:
eThe bucket to copy
cReturns a pointer to the new bucket
Returns:
APR_ENOTIMPL

Split a simple bucket into two at the given point. Most non-reference counting buckets that allow multiple references to the same block of data (eg transient and immortal) will use this as their split function without any additional type-specific handling.

Parameters:
bThe bucket to be split
pointThe offset of the first byte in the new bucket
Returns:
APR_EINVAL if the point is not within the bucket; APR_ENOMEM if allocation failed; or APR_SUCCESS

Copy a simple bucket. Most non-reference-counting buckets that allow multiple references to the same block of data (eg transient and immortal) will use this as their copy function without any additional type-specific handling.

Parameters:
aThe bucket to copy
bReturns a pointer to the new bucket
Returns:
APR_ENOMEM if allocation failed; or APR_SUCCESS

Split a bucket into two at the given point, and adjust the refcount to the underlying data. Most reference-counting bucket types will be able to use this function as their split function without any additional type-specific handling.

Parameters:
bThe bucket to be split
pointThe offset of the first byte in the new bucket
Returns:
APR_EINVAL if the point is not within the bucket; APR_ENOMEM if allocation failed; or APR_SUCCESS

Copy a refcounted bucket, incrementing the reference count. Most reference-counting bucket types will be able to use this function as their copy function without any additional type-specific handling.

Create a bucket allocator.

Parameters:
pThis pool's underlying apr_allocator_t is used to allocate memory for the bucket allocator. When the pool is destroyed, the bucket allocator's cleanup routine will free all memory that has been allocated from it.
Remarks:
The reason the allocator gets its memory from the pool's apr_allocator_t rather than from the pool itself is because the bucket allocator will free large memory blocks back to the allocator when it's done with them, thereby preventing memory footprint growth that would occur if we allocated from the pool.
Warning:
The allocator must never be used by more than one thread at a time.

Create a bucket allocator.

Parameters:
allocatorThis apr_allocator_t is used to allocate both the bucket allocator and all memory handed out by the bucket allocator. The caller is responsible for destroying the bucket allocator and the apr_allocator_t -- no automatic cleanups will happen.
Warning:
The allocator must never be used by more than one thread at a time.
APU_DECLARE_NONSTD ( void  )

Destroy a bucket allocator.

Parameters:
listThe allocator to be destroyed

Free memory previously allocated with apr_bucket_alloc().

Parameters:
blockThe block of memory to be freed.

A place holder function that signifies that this bucket does not need to do anything special to be destroyed. That's only the case for buckets that either have no data (metadata buckets) or buckets whose data pointer points to something that's not a bucket-type-specific structure, as with simple buckets where data points to a string and pipe buckets where data points directly to the apr_file_t.

Parameters:
dataThe bucket data to destroy
APU_DECLARE_NONSTD ( void *  )

Allocate memory for use by the buckets.

Parameters:
sizeThe amount to allocate.
listThe allocator from which to allocate the memory.

apr_off_t apr_bucket** after_point

Definition at line 727 of file apr_buckets.h.

The EOS bucket type. This signifies that there will be no more data, ever. All filters MUST send all data to the next filter when they receive a bucket of this type

The FILE bucket type. This bucket represents a file on disk

There is no apr_bucket_destroy_notimpl, because destruction is required to be implemented (it could be a noop, but only if that makes sense for the bucket type) The flush bucket type. This signifies that all data should be flushed to the next filter. The flush bucket should be sent with the other buckets.

The HEAP bucket type. This bucket represents a data allocated from the heap.

The IMMORTAL bucket type. This bucket represents a segment of data that the creator is willing to take responsibility for. The core will do nothing with the data in an immortal bucket

The PIPE bucket type. This bucket represents a pipe to another program.

The POOL bucket type. This bucket represents a data that was allocated from a pool. IF this bucket is still available when the pool is cleared, the data is copied on to the heap.

The SOCKET bucket type. This bucket represents a socket to another machine

The TRANSIENT bucket type. This bucket represents a data allocated off the stack. When the setaside function is called, this data is copied on to the heap
