It is also possible to report damage * while the clock is not running, in which case the rate of repairs * will be rate limited as if the clock were running. * * #GPeriodic has a configurable priority range consisting of a high and * low value. Other sources with a priority higher than the high value * might starve #GPeriodic and sources with the priority lower than the * low value may be starved by #GPeriodic. * * #GPeriodic will engage in dynamic scheduling with respect to sources * that have their priorities within the high to low range. A given * #GPeriodic will ensure that the events dispatched from itself are * generally using less than 50% of the CPU (on average) if other tasks * are pending. If no other sources within the range are pending then * #GPeriodic will use up to all of the available CPU (which can lead to * starvation of lower-priority sources, as mentioned above). The 50% * figure is entirely arbitrary and may change or become configurable in * the future. * * For example, if a #GPeriodic has been set to run at 10Hz and a * particular iteration uses 140ms of time, then 2 ticks will be * "skipped" to give other sources a chance to run (ie: the next tick * will occur 300ms later rather than 100ms later, giving 160ms of time * for other sources). * * This means that the high priority value for #GPeriodic should be set * quite high (above anything else) and the low priority value for * #GPeriodic should be set lower than everything except true "idle" * handlers (ie: things that you want to run only when the program is * truly idle). * * #GPeriodic generally assumes that although the things attached to it * may be poorly behaved in terms of non-yielding behaviour (either * individually or in aggregate), the other sources on the main loop * should be "well behaved". Other sources should try not to block the * CPU for a substantial portion of the periodic interval. * * The sources attached to a #GPeriodic are permitted to be somewhat * less well-behaved because they are generally rendering the UI for the * user (which should be done smoothly) and also because they will be * throttled by #GPeriodic. * * #GPeriodic is intended to be used as a paint clock for managing * geometry updates and painting of windows. * * Since: 2.28 **/ /** * GPeriodic: * * #GPeriodic is an opaque structure type. * * Since: 2.28 **/ typedef struct { GPeriodicTickFunc callback; gpointer user_data; GDestroyNotify notify; guint id; } GPeriodicTick; typedef struct { GSource source; GPeriodic *periodic; } GPeriodicSource; struct _GPeriodicPrivate { GSource *source; /* GPeriodicSource */ guint64 last_run; guint blocked; guint hz; guint skip_frames; guint stop_skip_id; gint low_priority; GSList *ticks; /* List */ guint damaged : 1; /* debug */ guint in_tick : 1; guint in_repair : 1; }; G_DEFINE_TYPE (GPeriodic, g_periodic, G_TYPE_OBJECT) #define PERIODIC_FROM_SOURCE(src) (((GPeriodicSource *) (src))->periodic) enum { PROP_NONE, PROP_HZ, PROP_HIGH_PRIORITY, PROP_LOW_PRIORITY }; static guint g_periodic_tick; static guint g_periodic_repair; static guint64 g_periodic_get_microticks (GPeriodic *periodic) { return g_source_get_time (periodic->priv->source) * periodic->priv->hz; } static gboolean g_periodic_stop_skip (gpointer data) { GPeriodic *periodic = data; periodic->priv->skip_frames = 0; g_message ("Skipping frames ends"); periodic->priv->stop_skip_id = 0; return FALSE; } static void g_periodic_real_tick (GPeriodic *periodic, gint64 timestamp) { GSList *iter; for (iter = periodic->priv->ticks; iter; iter = iter->next) { GPeriodicTick *tick = iter->data; tick->callback (periodic, timestamp, tick->user_data); } } static void g_periodic_real_repair (GPeriodic *periodic) { periodic->priv->damaged = FALSE; } static void g_periodic_run (GPeriodic *periodic) { gint64 start, usec; g_assert (periodic->priv->blocked == 0); start = g_get_monotonic_time (); if (periodic->priv->ticks) { guint64 microseconds; periodic->priv->in_tick = TRUE; microseconds = periodic->priv->last_run / periodic->priv->hz; g_signal_emit (periodic, g_periodic_tick, 0, microseconds); periodic->priv->in_tick = FALSE; } g_assert (periodic->priv->blocked == 0); if (periodic->priv->damaged) { periodic->priv->in_repair = TRUE; g_signal_emit (periodic, g_periodic_repair, 0); periodic->priv->in_repair = FALSE; } g_assert (!periodic->priv->damaged); usec = g_get_monotonic_time () - start; g_assert (usec >= 0); /* Take the time it took to render, multiply by two and round down to * a whole number of frames.
