简单的并发控制

利用 channel 的缓冲设定，我们就可以来实现并发的限制。我们只要在执行并发的同时，往一个带有缓冲的 channel 里写入点东西（随便写啥，内容不重要）。让并发的 goroutine在执行完成后把这个 channel 里的东西给读走。这样整个并发的数量就讲控制在这个 channel的缓冲区大小上。

比如我们可以用一个 bool 类型的带缓冲 channel 作为并发限制的计数器。

chLimit := make(chan bool, 1)

 然后在并发执行的地方，每创建一个新的 goroutine，都往 chLimit 里塞个东西。

for i, sleeptime := range input {
    chs[i] = make(chan string, 1)
    chLimit <- true
    go limitFunc(chLimit, chs[i], i, sleeptime, timeout)
}

这里通过 go 关键字并发执行的是新构造的函数。他在执行完后，会把 chLimit的缓冲区里给消费掉一个。

limitFunc := func(chLimit chan bool, ch chan string, task_id, sleeptime, timeout int) {
    Run(task_id, sleeptime, timeout, ch)
    <-chLimit
}

这样一来，当创建的 goroutine 数量到达 chLimit 的缓冲区上限后。主 goroutine 就挂起阻塞了，直到这些 goroutine 执行完毕，消费掉了 chLimit 缓冲区中的数据，程序才会继续创建新的 goroutine 。我们并发数量限制的目的也就达到了。

以下是完整代码：

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "time"
)

func Run(task_id, sleeptime, timeout int, ch chan string) {
    ch_run := make(chan string)
    go run(task_id, sleeptime, ch_run)
    select {
    case re := <-ch_run:
        ch <- re
    case <-time.After(time.Duration(timeout) * time.Second):
        re := fmt.Sprintf("task id %d , timeout", task_id)
        ch <- re
    }
}

func run(task_id, sleeptime int, ch chan string) {

    time.Sleep(time.Duration(sleeptime) * time.Second)
    ch <- fmt.Sprintf("task id %d , sleep %d second", task_id, sleeptime)
    return
}

func main() {
    input := []int{3, 2, 1}
    timeout := 2
    chLimit := make(chan bool, 1)
    chs := make([]chan string, len(input))
    limitFunc := func(chLimit chan bool, ch chan string, task_id, sleeptime, timeout int) {
        Run(task_id, sleeptime, timeout, ch)
        <-chLimit
    }
    startTime := time.Now()
    fmt.Println("Multirun start")
    for i, sleeptime := range input {
        chs[i] = make(chan string, 1)
        chLimit <- true
        go limitFunc(chLimit, chs[i], i, sleeptime, timeout)
    }

    for _, ch := range chs {
        fmt.Println(<-ch)
    }
    endTime := time.Now()
    fmt.Printf("Multissh finished. Process time %s. Number of task is %d", endTime.Sub(startTime), len(input))
}

运行结果：

Multirun start
task id 0 , timeout
task id 1 , timeout
task id 2 , sleep 1 second
Multissh finished. Process time 5s. Number of task is 3

如果修改并发限制为2：

chLimit := make(chan bool, 2)

运行结果：

Multirun start
task id 0 , timeout
task id 1 , timeout
task id 2 , sleep 1 second
Multissh finished. Process time 3s. Number of task is 3

使用计数器实现请求限流

限流的要求是在指定的时间间隔内，server 最多只能服务指定数量的请求。实现的原理是我们启动一个计数器，每次服务请求会把计数器加一，同时到达指定的时间间隔后会把计数器清零；这个计数器的实现代码如下所示：

type RequestLimitService struct {
	Interval time.Duration
	MaxCount int
	Lock     sync.Mutex
	ReqCount int
}

func NewRequestLimitService(interval time.Duration, maxCnt int) *RequestLimitService {
	reqLimit := &RequestLimitService{
		Interval: interval,
		MaxCount: maxCnt,
	}

	go func() {
		ticker := time.NewTicker(interval)
		for {
			<-ticker.C
			reqLimit.Lock.Lock()
			fmt.Println("Reset Count...")
			reqLimit.ReqCount = 0
			reqLimit.Lock.Unlock()
		}
	}()

	return reqLimit
}

func (reqLimit *RequestLimitService) Increase() {
	reqLimit.Lock.Lock()
	defer reqLimit.Lock.Unlock()

	reqLimit.ReqCount += 1
}

func (reqLimit *RequestLimitService) IsAvailable() bool {
	reqLimit.Lock.Lock()
	defer reqLimit.Lock.Unlock()

	return reqLimit.ReqCount < reqLimit.MaxCount
}

在服务请求的时候, 我们会对当前计数器和阈值进行比较，只有未超过阈值时才进行服务：

var RequestLimit = NewRequestLimitService(10 * time.Second, 5)

func helloHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	if RequestLimit.IsAvailable() {
		RequestLimit.Increase()
		fmt.Println(RequestLimit.ReqCount)
		io.WriteString(w, "Hello world!\n")
	} else {
		fmt.Println("Reach request limiting!")
		io.WriteString(w, "Reach request limit!\n")
	}
}

func main() {
	fmt.Println("Server Started!")
	http.HandleFunc("/", helloHandler)
	http.ListenAndServe(":8000", nil)
}

使用golang官方包实现httpserver频率限制

使用golang来编写httpserver时，可以使用官方已经有实现好的包：

import(
    "fmt"
    "net"
    "golang.org/x/net/netutil"
)

func main() {
    l, err := net.Listen("tcp", "127.0.0.1:0")
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Fatalf("Listen: %v", err)
    }
    defer l.Close()
    l = LimitListener(l, max)
    
    http.Serve(l, http.HandlerFunc())
    
    //bla bla bla.................
}

源码如下(url : https://github.com/golang/net/blob/master/netutil/listen.go)，基本思路就是为连接数计数，通过make chan来建立一个最大连接数的channel, 每次accept就+1，close时候就-1. 当到达最大连接数时，就等待空闲连接出来之后再accept。

import (

)

// LimitListener returns a Listener that accepts at most n simultaneous
// connections from the provided Listener.
func LimitListener(l net.Listener, n int) net.Listener {
	return &limitListener{
		Listener: l,
		sem:      make(chan struct{}, n),
		done:     make(chan struct{}),
	}
}

type limitListener struct {
	net.Listener
	sem       chan struct{}
	closeOnce sync.Once     // ensures the done chan is only closed once
	done      chan struct{} // no values sent; closed when Close is called
}

// acquire acquires the limiting semaphore. Returns true if successfully
// accquired, false if the listener is closed and the semaphore is not

func (l *limitListener) acquire() bool {
	select {
	case <-l.done:
		return false
	case l.sem <- struct{}{}:
		return true
	}
}
func (l *limitListener) release() { <-l.sem }

func (l *limitListener) Accept() (net.Conn, error) {
    //如果sem满了，就会阻塞在这
	acquired := l.acquire()
	// If the semaphore isn't acquired because the listener was closed, expect
	// that this call to accept won't block, but immediately return an error.
	c, err := l.Listener.Accept()
	if err != nil {
		if acquired {
			l.release()
		}
		return nil, err
	}
	return &limitListenerConn{Conn: c, release: l.release}, nil
}

func (l *limitListener) Close() error {
	err := l.Listener.Close()
	l.closeOnce.Do(func() { close(l.done) })
	return err
}

type limitListenerConn struct {
	net.Conn
	releaseOnce sync.Once
	release     func()
}

func (l *limitListenerConn) Close() error {
	err := l.Conn.Close()
    //close时释放占用的sem
	l.releaseOnce.Do(l.release)
	return err
}

使用Token Bucket（令牌桶算法）实现请求限流

在开发高并发系统时有三把利器用来保护系统：缓存、降级和限流!为了保证在业务高峰期，线上系统也能保证一定的弹性和稳定性，最有效的方案就是进行服务降级了，而限流就是降级系统最常采用的方案之一。

这里为大家推荐一个开源库https://github.com/didip/tollbooth，但是，如果您想要一些简单的、轻量级的或者只是想要学习的东西，实现自己的中间件来处理速率限制并不困难。今天我们就来聊聊如何实现自己的一个限流中间件

首先我们需要安装一个提供了 Token bucket (令牌桶算法)的依赖包，上面提到的toolbooth 的实现也是基于它实现的：

$ go get golang.org/x/time/rate

先看Demo代码的实现：

package main

import (
    "net/http"
    "golang.org/x/time/rate"
)

var limiter = rate.NewLimiter(2, 5)
func limit(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
    return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        if limiter.Allow() == false {
            http.Error(w, http.StatusText(429), http.StatusTooManyRequests)
            return
        }
        next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
    })
}

func main() {
    mux := http.NewServeMux()
    mux.HandleFunc("/", okHandler)
    // Wrap the servemux with the limit middleware.
    http.ListenAndServe(":4000", limit(mux))
}

func okHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    w.Write([]byte("OK"))
}

然后看看 rate.NewLimiter的源码：

算法描述：用户配置的平均发送速率为r，则每隔1/r秒一个令牌被加入到桶中（每秒会有r个令牌放入桶中），桶中最多可以存放b个令牌。如果令牌到达时令牌桶已经满了，那么这个令牌会被丢弃；

// Copyright 2015 The Go Authors. All rights reserved.
// Use of this source code is governed by a BSD-style
// license that can be found in the LICENSE file.
// Package rate provides a rate limiter.
package rate

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
	"sync"
	"time"

	"golang.org/x/net/context"
)

// Limit defines the maximum frequency of some events.
// Limit is represented as number of events per second.
// A zero Limit allows no events.
type Limit float64

// Inf is the infinite rate limit; it allows all events (even if burst is zero).
const Inf = Limit(math.MaxFloat64)

// Every converts a minimum time interval between events to a Limit.
func Every(interval time.Duration) Limit {
	if interval <= 0 {
		return Inf
	}
	return 1 / Limit(interval.Seconds())
}

// A Limiter controls how frequently events are allowed to happen.
// It implements a "token bucket" of size b, initially full and refilled
// at rate r tokens per second.
// Informally, in any large enough time interval, the Limiter limits the
// rate to r tokens per second, with a maximum burst size of b events.
// As a special case, if r == Inf (the infinite rate), b is ignored.
// See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_bucket for more about token buckets.
//
// The zero value is a valid Limiter, but it will reject all events.
// Use NewLimiter to create non-zero Limiters.
//
// Limiter has three main methods, Allow, Reserve, and Wait.
// Most callers should use Wait.
//
// Each of the three methods consumes a single token.
// They differ in their behavior when no token is available.
// If no token is available, Allow returns false.
// If no token is available, Reserve returns a reservation for a future token
// and the amount of time the caller must wait before using it.
// If no token is available, Wait blocks until one can be obtained
// or its associated context.Context is canceled.
//
// The methods AllowN, ReserveN, and WaitN consume n tokens.

	lim.mu.Lock()
	defer lim.mu.Unlock()
	return lim.limit
}

// Burst returns the maximum burst size. Burst is the maximum number of tokens
// that can be consumed in a single call to Allow, Reserve, or Wait, so higher
// Burst values allow more events to happen at once.
// A zero Burst allows no events, unless limit == Inf.
func (lim *Limiter) Burst() int {
	return lim.burst
}

// NewLimiter returns a new Limiter that allows events up to rate r and permits
// bursts of at most b tokens.

// OK returns whether the limiter can provide the requested number of tokens
// within the maximum wait time.  If OK is false, Delay returns InfDuration, and

	return r.ok
}

// Delay is shorthand for DelayFrom(time.Now()).

	return r.DelayFrom(time.Now())
}

// InfDuration is the duration returned by Delay when a Reservation is not OK.
const InfDuration = time.Duration(1<<63 - 1)

// DelayFrom returns the duration for which the reservation holder must wait
// before taking the reserved action.  Zero duration means act immediately.
// InfDuration means the limiter cannot grant the tokens requested in this

虽然在某些情况下使用单个全局速率限制器非常有用，但另一种常见情况是基于IP地址或API密钥等标识符为每个用户实施速率限制器。我们将使用IP地址作为标识符。简单实现代码如下：

package main
import (
    "net/http"
    "sync"
    "time"
    "golang.org/x/time/rate"
)
// Create a custom visitor struct which holds the rate limiter for each
// visitor and the last time that the visitor was seen.
type visitor struct {
    limiter  *rate.Limiter
    lastSeen time.Time
}
// Change the the map to hold values of the type visitor.
var visitors = make(map[string]*visitor)
var mtx sync.Mutex
// Run a background goroutine to remove old entries from the visitors map.
func init() {
    go cleanupVisitors()
}
func addVisitor(ip string) *rate.Limiter {
    limiter := rate.NewLimiter(2, 5)
    mtx.Lock()
    // Include the current time when creating a new visitor.
    visitors[ip] = &visitor{limiter, time.Now()}
    mtx.Unlock()
    return limiter
}
func getVisitor(ip string) *rate.Limiter {
    mtx.Lock()
    v, exists := visitors[ip]
    if !exists {
        mtx.Unlock()
        return addVisitor(ip)
    }
    // Update the last seen time for the visitor.
    v.lastSeen = time.Now()
    mtx.Unlock()
    return v.limiter
}
// Every minute check the map for visitors that haven't been seen for
// more than 3 minutes and delete the entries.
func cleanupVisitors() {
    for {
        time.Sleep(time.Minute)
        mtx.Lock()
        for ip, v := range visitors {
            if time.Now().Sub(v.lastSeen) > 3*time.Minute {
                delete(visitors, ip)
            }
        }
        mtx.Unlock()
    }
}
func limit(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
    return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        limiter := getVisitor(r.RemoteAddr)
        if limiter.Allow() == false {
            http.Error(w, http.StatusText(429), http.StatusTooManyRequests)
            return
        }
        next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
    })
}
