It uses "user-space threads" similar to ucontext (swapcontext(3)). I have my own version:
https://github.com/reginaldl/fcontext Once the stack allocated for a thread, context switches are almost as cheap as a function call. RiNOO has an event driven scheduler, based on epoll, which resume/release these user-space threads (that I call tasks) according to pending IOs.
The library provides with IO functions (read, write...) which use the RiNOO scheduler. As a bonus, real threading is quite easy: just need to run a scheduler per thread (see examples with multi-threading). |
