eve.core.linux.slots

Watcher slot pool for the Linux event loop.

This module provides free-list-based slot allocation, token management, and slot lookup for the Linux EventLoop. It operates on a generic Slot type that must expose certain metadata fields (kind, flags, generation, handle, interest, nextFree, registrationSeq).

By parameterizing on the concrete slot type, this module avoids a circular dependency on the full EventLoop definition.

struct SlotPool

Types 1

structSlotPool(Slot)

Free-list-based watcher slot pool.

Manages a contiguous array of watcher slots with O(1) allocate and release operations. Each slot carries a generation counter that is incorporated into tokens to detect stale references after release.

Parameters

Slot Struct type with at minimum fields: kind, flags, generation, handle, interest, cancelToken, nextFree, registrationSeq.

Fields

Slot[] slots

uint freeHead

size_t watcherCount

ulong registrationSeq

Methods

void initialize(size_t capacity) @trusted nothrowInitialize the pool with a fixed slot capacity.

void dispose() @safe nothrow @nogcReset all pool state.

void rebuildFreeList() @safe nothrow @nogcRebuild the free list from all slots.

Token allocate() @safe nothrow @nogcAllocate a token from the free list.

Slot * slotFor(Token token) @safe nothrow @nogcLook up a slot by token.

void release(uint index) @trusted nothrow @nogcRelease a slot back to the free list.

void resetSlot(uint index, ref Slot slot) @trusted nothrow @nogc
