android11 源码中对epoll的使用

epoll的重要性不言而喻，所以特此记录系统当中对epoll的使用。

system/core/init/init.cpp

// Init epolls various FDs to wait for various inputs.  It previously waited on property changes
// with a blocking socket that contained the information related to the change, however, it was easy
// to fill that socket and deadlock the system.  Now we use locks to handle the property changes
// directly in the property thread, however we still must wake the epoll to inform init that there
// is a change to process, so we use this FD.  It is non-blocking, since we do not care how many
// times WakeMainInitThread() is called, only that the epoll will wake.
static int wake_main_thread_fd = -1;
static void InstallInitNotifier(Epoll* epoll) {
    wake_main_thread_fd = eventfd(0, EFD_CLOEXEC);
    if (wake_main_thread_fd == -1) {
        PLOG(FATAL) << "Failed to create eventfd for waking init";
    }
    auto clear_eventfd = [] {
        uint64_t counter;
        TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY(read(wake_main_thread_fd, &counter, sizeof(counter)));
    };

    if (auto result = epoll->RegisterHandler(wake_main_thread_fd, clear_eventfd); !result.ok()) {
        LOG(FATAL) << result.error();
    }
}

static void WakeMainInitThread() {
    uint64_t counter = 1;
    TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY(write(wake_main_thread_fd, &counter, sizeof(counter)));
}

关于 eventfd 可以看这里：
https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/eventfd.2.html

平时 auto epoll_result = epoll.Wait(epoll_timeout) 的
然后如果子线程需要唤醒主线程的话，则调用 WakeMainInitThread，
主线程继续执行 Wait 后面的代码 。
