ev is a PECL extension providing inteface to libev library – high performance full-featured event loop written in C.
ABOUT LIBEV
Libev is an event loop: you register interest in certain events (such as a file descriptor being readable or a timeout occurring), and it will manage these event sources and provide your program with events.
那麼什麼是libev呢，從網上摘錄一段:
libev 是高性能事件循環/事件模型的網絡庫，並且包含大量新特性。
它是繼lievent和Event perl module之後的一套全新網絡庫。它追求的目標：速度更快，bug更少，特性更多，體積更小。 www.2cto.com
它和libevent很像，按照作者的介紹，可以作為libevent的替代者，能夠提供更高的性能。並不需要復雜的配置。
看起來和之前提到的libevent大有淵源，但是這個擴展的作者顯然比較活躍，一周內提交瞭3個版本。
代碼示例
timer的使用
<?php
// 創建一個timer並於2秒後觸發
$w1 = new EvTimer(2, 0, function () {
echo "2 seconds elapsed\n";
});
// 創建一個timer並於2秒後觸發，每秒重復
// 直到我們手工停止
$w2 = new EvTimer(2, 1, function ($w) {
echo "is called every second, is launched after 2 seconds\n";
echo "iteration = ", Ev::iteration(), PHP_EOL;
// Stop the watcher after 5 iterations
Ev::iteration() == 5 and $w->stop();
// Stop the watcher if further calls cause more than 10 iterations
Ev::iteration() >= 10 and $w->stop();
});
// 創建一個已停止的timer，手工start才有效
$w_stopped = EvTimer::createStopped(10, 5, function($w) {
echo "Callback of a timer created as stopped\n";
// Stop the watcher after 2 iterations
Ev::iteration() >= 2 and $w->stop();
});
// Loop until Ev::stop() is called or all of watchers stop
Ev::run();
// Start and look if it works
$w_stopped->start();
echo "Run single iteration\n";
Ev::run(Ev::RUN_ONCE);
echo "Restart the second watcher and try to handle the same events, but don't block\n";
$w2->again();
Ev::run(Ev::RUN_NOWAIT);
$w = new EvTimer(10, 0, function() {});
echo "Running a blocking loop\n";
Ev::run();
echo "END\n";
?>

I/O事件
例1
<?php
// Wait until STDIN is readable
$w = new EvIo(STDIN, Ev::READ, function ($watcher, $revents) {
echo "STDIN is readable\n";
});
Ev::run(Ev::RUN_ONCE);
?>
例2
<?php
/* Use some async I/O to access a socket */
// `sockets' extension still logs warnings
// for EINPROGRESS, EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK etc.
error_reporting(E_ERROR);
$e_nonblocking = array (/*EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK*/11, /*EINPROGRESS*/115);
// Get the port for the WWW service
$service_port = getservbyname('www', 'tcp');
// Get the IP address for the target host
$address = gethostbyname('google.co.uk');
// Create a TCP/IP socket
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
if ($socket === FALSE) {
echo "socket_create() failed: reason: "
.socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "\n";
}
// Set O_NONBLOCK flag
socket_set_nonblock($socket);
// Abort on timeout
$timeout_watcher = new EvTimer(10.0, 0., function () use ($socket) {
socket_close($socket);
Ev::stop(Ev::BREAK_ALL);
});
// Make HEAD request when the socket is writable
$write_watcher = new EvIo($socket, Ev::WRITE, function ($w)
use ($socket, $timeout_watcher, $e_nonblocking) {
// Stop timeout watcher
$timeout_watcher->stop();
// Stop write watcher
$w->stop();
$in = "HEAD / HTTP/1.1\r\n";
$in .= "Host: google.co.uk\r\n";
$in .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
if (!socket_write($socket, $in, strlen($in))) {
trigger_error("Failed writing $in to socket", E_USER_ERROR);
}
$read_watcher = new EvIo($socket, Ev::READ, function ($w, $re)
use ($socket, $e_nonblocking) {
// Socket is readable. recv() 20 bytes using non-blocking mode
$ret = socket_recv($socket, $out, 20, MSG_DONTWAIT);
if ($ret) {
echo $out;
} elseif ($ret === 0) {
// All read
$w->stop();
socket_close($socket);
return;
}
// Caught EINPROGRESS, EAGAIN, or EWOULDBLOCK
if (in_array(socket_last_error(), $e_nonblocking)) {
return;
}
$w->stop();
socket_close($socket);
});
Ev::run();
});
$result = socket_connect($socket, $address, $service_port);
