15 /* IMPLEMENTATION NOTE
17 The goal of this module is quite difficult. We want to have several modules,
18 each of them having globals which have to be initialized in any unix
19 process. Let's call them world-wide globals. An example may be the messages
20 dictionnary, which is world-wide to detect definition discrepencies when
23 And then, the module may want to have some globals specific to a gras process,
24 just like userdata stuff allows to have per-process globals. Let's call them
25 process-wide globals. An example may be the list of attached callbacks.
27 That is why we have 4 functions per module: the join function is called by any
28 process, and is in charge of creating the process-wide globals. If it is the
29 first time a process uses the module, it also calls the init function, in
30 charge of initializing the world-wide globals. We have the symetric functions
31 leave, called by any process not using the module anymore, and exit, in charge
32 of freeing the world-wide globals when no process use it anymore.
34 One can see this as a factory of factories. the init function is a factory
35 creating the module, which contains a factory (the join function) able to
36 create process-wide globals. The fact that indeed the calling sequence goes
37 from join to init and not the other side is just an implementation bias ;)
39 Then again, we want these functionnalities to be quick. We want to access
40 the process-wide globals by providing their rank in a dynar, we don't want to
41 search them in a dictionnary. This is especially true in the module
42 implementation, where each functions is likely to require them to work. The
43 position could be a stored in a global variable only visible from the module
46 The need for an array in which to store the globals does not hold for
47 world-wide globals: only one instance of them can exist in the same unix naming
48 space. Thus, there is no need to put them in an array, we can actually declare
49 them as regular C globals.
51 The next trick comes from the fact that the user may (and will) mess up and not
52 get all modules initialized in the same order in every process. So, the rank of
53 module data cannot be the order in which a process called the join
54 function. This has to be a world-wide global instead.
56 And finally, if we want to get the ability to destroy modules (one day, they
57 will load their code in as plugin), we want to give the module handling library
58 (ie, this file) to modify the variable containing the rank of module in the
59 tables. This is why we have the ID field in the module structure: it points
60 exactly to the implementation side global.
62 Yeah, I know. All this is not that clear. But at least, writing this helped me
63 to design that crap ;)

92 * @brief Declaring a new GRAS module
93 * @param name: name of the module, of course (beware of dupplicates!)
94 * @param datasize: the size of your data, ie of the state this module has on each process
95 * @param ID: address of a global you use as parameter to gras_module_data_by_id
96 * @param init_f: function called the first time a module gets by a process of the naming space.
97 * A classical use is to declare some messages the module uses, as well as the initialization
98 * of module constants (accross processes boundaries in SG).
99 * @param exit_f: function called when the last process of this naming space unref this module.
100 * @param join_f: function called each time a process references the module.
101 * It is passed the moddata already malloced, and should initialize the fields as it wants.
102 * It can also attach some callbacks to the module messages.
103 * @param leave_f: function called each time a process unrefs the module.
104 * It is passed the moddata, and should free any memory allocated by init_f.
105 * It should alse disconnect any attached callbacks.
