Netpoll is an event-driven network framework and non-blocking I/O library designed to manage concurrent TCP and Unix domain socket connections. It utilizes a non-blocking event loop to monitor file descriptors and trigger callbacks for read and write events, serving as a high-performance socket manager and TCP network poller. The framework optimizes throughput across CPU cores by distributing incoming network connections across multiple pollers. It implements zero-copy networking primitives, using linked buffers and specialized memory management to read and write data while minimizing memory
gnet is a high-performance event-driven networking framework for Go, designed for building scalable TCP, UDP, and Unix socket servers. It functions as a non-blocking socket manager and multi-reactor network engine that handles thousands of simultaneous connections with low memory overhead. The framework distinguishes itself by using a multi-reactor architecture that distributes I/O across multiple event loops pinned to operating system threads to minimize context switching. It employs edge-triggered polling to reduce system call frequency and utilizes elastic ring-buffers to minimize allocati
TCP-IP-NetworkNote is a comprehensive technical reference and guide for implementing network communication using TCP and UDP sockets in C and C++. It provides a detailed manual for using the POSIX socket API and covers the implementation of network protocols, synchronous and asynchronous I/O patterns, and concurrent programming models. The project is distinguished by its focus on cross-platform networking, offering a detailed comparison of socket implementation details and adaptation utilities between Linux and Windows Winsock environments. It specifically addresses the differences in header
Swift NIO is a low-level, event-driven network framework for the Swift language. It serves as an asynchronous network protocol stack and I/O library designed to build high-performance network servers and clients that handle thousands of simultaneous connections. The framework functions as a high-concurrency network engine that dispatches events across multiple CPU cores. It enables the implementation of custom network protocols by processing raw bytes through a sequence of reusable data transformation handlers. The system provides capabilities for non-blocking I/O multiplexing, asynchronous
