40 @brief
41 Interrupter.
42
43 An <strong><em>interrupter</em></strong> is a simple object which has
44 a single boolean state: set or not set.
45
46 You can use an interrupter to interrupt a running trace processing
47 \bt_graph or \ref api-qexec "query". The user and library functions periodically
48 check if they are interrupted (with
49 bt_self_component_sink_is_interrupted(),
50 bt_self_message_iterator_is_interrupted(), or
51 bt_query_executor_is_interrupted()); meanwhile, another thread or
52 a signal handler sets the shared interrupter with bt_interrupter_set().
53
54 To interrupt a running trace processing graph or query:
55
56 -# Create an interrupter with bt_interrupter_create().
57
58 -# Before running a trace processing graph with bt_graph_run() or
59 performing a query with bt_query_executor_query(), add
60 the created interrupter to the object with bt_graph_add_interrupter()
61 or bt_query_executor_add_interrupter().
62
63 Alternatively, you can borrow the existing, default interrupter from
64 those objects with bt_graph_borrow_default_interrupter() and
65 bt_query_executor_borrow_default_interrupter().
66
67 -# Run the graph with bt_graph_run() or perform the query with
68 bt_query_executor_query().
69
70 -# From a signal handler or another thread, call bt_interrupter_set() to
71 set the shared interrupter.
72
73 Eventually, the trace processing graph or query thread checks if it's
74 interrupted and stops processing, usually returning a status code which
75 ends with \c _AGAIN.
76
77 You can add more than one interrupter to a trace processing graph and
78 to a query executor. The bt_self_component_sink_is_interrupted(),
79 bt_self_message_iterator_is_interrupted(), and
80 bt_query_executor_is_interrupted() functions return the logical
81 disjunction of all the added interrupters's states, so that \em any
82 interrupter can interrupt the thread.
83
84 Once a trace processing graph or a query executor is interrupted and
85 you get the thread's control back, you can reset the interrupter
86 with bt_interrupter_reset() and continue the previous operation,
87 calling bt_graph_run() or bt_query_executor_query() again.
88
89 An interrupter is a \ref api-fund-shared-object "shared object": get a
90 new reference with bt_interrupter_get_ref() and put an existing
91 reference with bt_interrupter_put_ref().
92
93 The type of an interrupter is #bt_interrupter.
