Usage

A note on co_await and threads

Its important to note with coroutines that any co_await has the potential to switch the underyling thread that is executing the currently executing coroutine if the scheduler used has more than 1 thread. In general this shouldn't affect the way any user of the library would write code except for thread_local. Usage of thread_local should be extremely careful and never used across any co_await boundary do to thread switching and work stealing on libcoro's schedulers. The only way this is safe is by using a coro::thread_pool with 1 thread or an inline io_scheduler which also only has 1 thread.

sync_wait

The sync_wait construct is meant to be used outside of a coroutine context to block the calling thread until the coroutine has completed. The coroutine can be executed on the calling thread or scheduled on one of libcoro's schedulers.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // This lambda will create a coro::task that returns a unit64_t.
    // It can be invoked many times with different arguments.
    auto make_task_inline = [](uint64_t x) -> coro::task<uint64_t> { co_return x + x; };

    // This will block the calling thread until the created task completes.
    // Since this task isn't scheduled on any coro::thread_pool or coro::io_scheduler
    // it will execute directly on the calling thread.
    auto result = coro::sync_wait(make_task_inline(5));
    std::cout << "Inline Result = " << result << "\n";

    // We'll make a 1 thread coro::thread_pool to demonstrate offloading the task's
    // execution to another thread.  We'll capture the thread pool in the lambda,
    // note that you will need to guarantee the thread pool outlives the coroutine.
    coro::thread_pool tp{coro::thread_pool::options{.thread_count = 1}};

    auto make_task_offload = [&tp](uint64_t x) -> coro::task<uint64_t>
    {
        co_await tp.schedule(); // Schedules execution on the thread pool.
        co_return x + x;        // This will execute on the thread pool.
    };

    // This will still block the calling thread, but it will now offload to the
    // coro::thread_pool since the coroutine task is immediately scheduled.
    result = coro::sync_wait(make_task_offload(10));
    std::cout << "Offload Result = " << result << "\n";
}

Expected output:

$ ./examples/coro_sync_wait 
Inline Result = 10
Offload Result = 20

when_all

The when_all construct can be used within coroutines to await a set of tasks, or it can be used outside coroutinne context in conjunction with sync_wait to await multiple tasks. Each task passed into when_all will initially be executed serially by the calling thread so it is recommended to offload the tasks onto a scheduler like coro::thread_pool or coro::io_scheduler so they can execute in parallel.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // Create a thread pool to execute all the tasks in parallel.
    coro::thread_pool tp{coro::thread_pool::options{.thread_count = 4}};
    // Create the task we want to invoke multiple times and execute in parallel on the thread pool.
    auto twice = [&](uint64_t x) -> coro::task<uint64_t>
    {
        co_await tp.schedule(); // Schedule onto the thread pool.
        co_return x + x;        // Executed on the thread pool.
    };

    // Make our tasks to execute, tasks can be passed in via a std::ranges::range type or var args.
    std::vector<coro::task<uint64_t>> tasks{};
    for (std::size_t i = 0; i < 5; ++i)
    {
        tasks.emplace_back(twice(i + 1));
    }

    // Synchronously wait on this thread for the thread pool to finish executing all the tasks in parallel.
    auto results = coro::sync_wait(coro::when_all(std::move(tasks)));
    for (auto& result : results)
    {
        // If your task can throw calling return_value() will either return the result or re-throw the exception.
        try
        {
            std::cout << result.return_value() << "\n";
        }
        catch (const std::exception& e)
        {
            std::cerr << e.what() << '\n';
        }
    }

    // Use var args instead of a container as input to coro::when_all.
    auto square = [&](double x) -> coro::task<double>
    {
        co_await tp.schedule();
        co_return x* x;
    };

    // Var args allows you to pass in tasks with different return types and returns
    // the result as a std::tuple.
    auto tuple_results = coro::sync_wait(coro::when_all(square(1.1), twice(10)));

    auto first  = std::get<0>(tuple_results).return_value();
    auto second = std::get<1>(tuple_results).return_value();

    std::cout << "first: " << first << " second: " << second << "\n";
}

Expected output:

first: 1.21 second: 20

task

The coro::task<T> is the main coroutine building block within libcoro. Use task to create your coroutines and co_await or co_yield tasks within tasks to perform asynchronous operations, lazily evaluation or even spreading work out across a coro::thread_pool. Tasks are lightweight and only begin execution upon awaiting them.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // Task that takes a value and doubles it.
    auto double_task = [](uint64_t x) -> coro::task<uint64_t> { co_return x * 2; };

    // Create a task that awaits the doubling of its given value and
    // then returns the result after adding 5.
    auto double_and_add_5_task = [&](uint64_t input) -> coro::task<uint64_t>
    {
        auto doubled = co_await double_task(input);
        co_return doubled + 5;
    };

    auto output = coro::sync_wait(double_and_add_5_task(2));
    std::cout << "Task1 output = " << output << "\n";

    struct expensive_struct
    {
        std::string              id{};
        std::vector<std::string> records{};

        expensive_struct()  = default;
        ~expensive_struct() = default;

        // Explicitly delete copy constructor and copy assign, force only moves!
        // While the default move constructors will work for this struct the example
        // inserts explicit print statements to show the task is moving the value
        // out correctly.
        expensive_struct(const expensive_struct&)                    = delete;
        auto operator=(const expensive_struct&) -> expensive_struct& = delete;

        expensive_struct(expensive_struct&& other) : id(std::move(other.id)), records(std::move(other.records))
        {
            std::cout << "expensive_struct() move constructor called\n";
        }
        auto operator=(expensive_struct&& other) -> expensive_struct&
        {
            if (std::addressof(other) != this)
            {
                id      = std::move(other.id);
                records = std::move(other.records);
            }
            std::cout << "expensive_struct() move assignment called\n";
            return *this;
        }
    };

    // Create a very large object and return it by moving the value so the
    // contents do not have to be copied out.
    auto move_output_task = []() -> coro::task<expensive_struct>
    {
        expensive_struct data{};
        data.id = "12345678-1234-5678-9012-123456781234";
        for (size_t i = 10'000; i < 100'000; ++i)
        {
            data.records.emplace_back(std::to_string(i));
        }

        // Because the struct only has move contructors it will be forced to use
        // them, no need to explicitly std::move(data).
        co_return data;
    };

    auto data = coro::sync_wait(move_output_task());
    std::cout << data.id << " has " << data.records.size() << " records.\n";

    // std::unique_ptr<T> can also be used to return a larger object.
    auto unique_ptr_task = []() -> coro::task<std::unique_ptr<uint64_t>> { co_return std::make_unique<uint64_t>(42); };

    auto answer_to_everything = coro::sync_wait(unique_ptr_task());
    if (answer_to_everything != nullptr)
    {
        std::cout << "Answer to everything = " << *answer_to_everything << "\n";
    }
}

Expected output:

$ ./examples/coro_task
Task1 output = 9
expensive_struct() move constructor called
expensive_struct() move assignment called
expensive_struct() move constructor called
12345678-1234-5678-9012-123456781234 has 90000 records.
Answer to everything = 42

generator

The coro::generator<T> construct is a coroutine which can generate one or more values.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    auto task = [](uint64_t count_to) -> coro::task<void>
    {
        // Create a generator function that will yield and incrementing
        // number each time its called.
        auto gen = []() -> coro::generator<uint64_t>
        {
            uint64_t i = 0;
            while (true)
            {
                co_yield i;
                ++i;
            }
        };

        // Generate the next number until its greater than count to.
        for (auto val : gen())
        {
            std::cout << val << ", ";

            if (val >= count_to)
            {
                break;
            }
        }
        co_return;
    };

    coro::sync_wait(task(100));
}

Expected output:

$ ./examples/coro_generator
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100,

event

The coro::event is a thread safe async tool to have 1 or more waiters suspend for an event to be set before proceeding. The implementation of event currently will resume execution of all waiters on the thread that sets the event. If the event is already set when a waiter goes to wait on the thread they will simply continue executing with no suspend or wait time incurred.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    coro::event e;

    // These tasks will wait until the given event has been set before advancing.
    auto make_wait_task = [](const coro::event& e, uint64_t i) -> coro::task<void> {
        std::cout << "task " << i << " is waiting on the event...\n";
        co_await e;
        std::cout << "task " << i << " event triggered, now resuming.\n";
        co_return;
    };

    // This task will trigger the event allowing all waiting tasks to proceed.
    auto make_set_task = [](coro::event& e) -> coro::task<void> {
        std::cout << "set task is triggering the event\n";
        e.set();
        co_return;
    };

    // Given more than a single task to synchronously wait on, use when_all() to execute all the
    // tasks concurrently on this thread and then sync_wait() for them all to complete.
    coro::sync_wait(coro::when_all(make_wait_task(e, 1), make_wait_task(e, 2), make_wait_task(e, 3), make_set_task(e)));
}

Expected output:

$ ./examples/coro_event
task 1 is waiting on the event...
task 2 is waiting on the event...
task 3 is waiting on the event...
set task is triggering the event
task 3 event triggered, now resuming.
task 2 event triggered, now resuming.
task 1 event triggered, now resuming.

latch

The coro::latch is a thread safe async tool to have 1 waiter suspend until all outstanding events have completed before proceeding.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // Complete worker tasks faster on a thread pool, using the io_scheduler version so the worker
    // tasks can yield for a specific amount of time to mimic difficult work.  The pool is only
    // setup with a single thread to showcase yield_for().
    auto tp = coro::io_scheduler::make_shared(
        coro::io_scheduler::options{.pool = coro::thread_pool::options{.thread_count = 1}});

    // This task will wait until the given latch setters have completed.
    auto make_latch_task = [](coro::latch& l) -> coro::task<void>
    {
        // It seems like the dependent worker tasks could be created here, but in that case it would
        // be superior to simply do: `co_await coro::when_all(tasks);`
        // It is also important to note that the last dependent task will resume the waiting latch
        // task prior to actually completing -- thus the dependent task's frame could be destroyed
        // by the latch task completing before it gets a chance to finish after calling resume() on
        // the latch task!

        std::cout << "latch task is now waiting on all children tasks...\n";
        co_await l;
        std::cout << "latch task dependency tasks completed, resuming.\n";
        co_return;
    };

    // This task does 'work' and counts down on the latch when completed.  The final child task to
    // complete will end up resuming the latch task when the latch's count reaches zero.
    auto make_worker_task = [](std::shared_ptr<coro::io_scheduler>& tp, coro::latch& l, int64_t i) -> coro::task<void>
    {
        // Schedule the worker task onto the thread pool.
        co_await tp->schedule();
        std::cout << "worker task " << i << " is working...\n";
        // Do some expensive calculations, yield to mimic work...!  Its also important to never use
        // std::this_thread::sleep_for() within the context of coroutines, it will block the thread
        // and other tasks that are ready to execute will be blocked.
        co_await tp->yield_for(std::chrono::milliseconds{i * 20});
        std::cout << "worker task " << i << " is done, counting down on the latch\n";
        l.count_down();
        co_return;
    };

    const int64_t                 num_tasks{5};
    coro::latch                   l{num_tasks};
    std::vector<coro::task<void>> tasks{};

    // Make the latch task first so it correctly waits for all worker tasks to count down.
    tasks.emplace_back(make_latch_task(l));
    for (int64_t i = 1; i <= num_tasks; ++i)
    {
        tasks.emplace_back(make_worker_task(tp, l, i));
    }

    // Wait for all tasks to complete.
    coro::sync_wait(coro::when_all(std::move(tasks)));
}

Expected output:

$ ./examples/coro_latch
latch task is now waiting on all children tasks...
worker task 1 is working...
worker task 2 is working...
worker task 3 is working...
worker task 4 is working...
worker task 5 is working...
worker task 1 is done, counting down on the latch
worker task 2 is done, counting down on the latch
worker task 3 is done, counting down on the latch
worker task 4 is done, counting down on the latch
worker task 5 is done, counting down on the latch
latch task dependency tasks completed, resuming.

mutex

The coro::mutex is a thread safe async tool to protect critical sections and only allow a single thread to execute the critical section at any given time. Mutexes that are uncontended are a simple CAS operation with a memory fence 'acquire' to behave similar to std::mutex. If the lock is contended then the thread will add itself to a LIFO queue of waiters and yield excution to allow another coroutine to process on that thread while it waits to acquire the lock.

Its important to note that upon releasing the mutex that thread unlocking the mutex will immediately start processing the next waiter in line for the coro::mutex (if there are any waiters), the mutex is only unlocked/released once all waiters have been processed. This guarantees fair execution in a reasonbly FIFO manner, but it also means all coroutines that stack in the waiter queue will end up shifting to the single thread that is executing all waiting coroutines. It is possible to manually reschedule after the critical section onto a thread pool to re-distribute the work if this is a concern in your use case.

The suspend waiter queue is LIFO, however the worker that current holds the mutex will periodically 'acquire' the current LIFO waiter list to process those waiters when its internal list becomes empty. This effectively resets the suspended waiter list to empty and the worker holding the mutex will work through the newly acquired LIFO queue of waiters. It would be possible to reverse this list to be as fair as possible, however not reversing the list should result is better throughput at possibly the cost of some latency for the first suspended waiters on the 'current' LIFO queue. Reversing the list, however, would introduce latency for all queue waiters since its done everytime the LIFO queue is swapped.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    coro::thread_pool     tp{coro::thread_pool::options{.thread_count = 4}};
    std::vector<uint64_t> output{};
    coro::mutex           mutex;

    auto make_critical_section_task = [&](uint64_t i) -> coro::task<void> {
        co_await tp.schedule();
        // To acquire a mutex lock co_await its lock() function.  Upon acquiring the lock the
        // lock() function returns a coro::scoped_lock that holds the mutex and automatically
        // unlocks the mutex upon destruction.  This behaves just like std::scoped_lock.
        {
            auto scoped_lock = co_await mutex.lock();
            output.emplace_back(i);
        } // <-- scoped lock unlocks the mutex here.
        co_return;
    };

    const size_t                  num_tasks{100};
    std::vector<coro::task<void>> tasks{};
    tasks.reserve(num_tasks);
    for (size_t i = 1; i <= num_tasks; ++i)
    {
        tasks.emplace_back(make_critical_section_task(i));
    }

    coro::sync_wait(coro::when_all(std::move(tasks)));

    // The output will be variable per run depending on how the tasks are picked up on the
    // thread pool workers.
    for (const auto& value : output)
    {
        std::cout << value << ", ";
    }
}

Expected output, note that the output will vary from run to run based on how the thread pool workers are scheduled and in what order they acquire the mutex lock:

$ ./examples/coro_mutex
1, 22, 21, 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 34, 33, 32, 31, 30, 29, 28, 27, 26, 25, 24, 23, 37, 36, 35, 40, 39, 38, 41, 42, 43, 44, 46, 47, 48, 45, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 57, 56, 59, 58, 61, 60, 62, 63, 65, 64, 67, 66, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 83, 82, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 91, 90, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100,

Its very easy to see the LIFO 'atomic' queue in action in the beginning where 22->2 are immediately suspended waiting to acquire the mutex.

shared_mutex

The coro::shared_mutex is a thread safe async tool to allow for multiple shared users at once but also exclusive access. The lock is acquired strictly in a FIFO manner in that if the lock is currenty held by shared users and an exclusive attempts to lock, the exclusive waiter will suspend until all the current shared users finish using the lock. Any new users that attempt to lock the mutex in a shared state once there is an exclusive waiter will also wait behind the exclusive waiter. This prevents the exclusive waiter from being starved.

The coro::shared_mutex requires a executor_type when constructed to be able to resume multiple shared waiters when an exclusive lock is released. This allows for all of the pending shared waiters to be resumed concurrently.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // Shared mutexes require an excutor type to be able to wake up multiple shared waiters when
    // there is an exclusive lock holder releasing the lock.  This example uses a single thread
    // to also show the interleaving of coroutines acquiring the shared lock in shared and
    // exclusive mode as they resume and suspend in a linear manner.  Ideally the thread pool
    // executor would have more than 1 thread to resume all shared waiters in parallel.
    auto               tp = std::make_shared<coro::thread_pool>(coro::thread_pool::options{.thread_count = 1});
    coro::shared_mutex mutex{tp};

    auto make_shared_task = [&](uint64_t i) -> coro::task<void> {
        co_await tp->schedule();
        {
            std::cerr << "shared task " << i << " lock_shared()\n";
            auto scoped_lock = co_await mutex.lock_shared();
            std::cerr << "shared task " << i << " lock_shared() acquired\n";
            /// Immediately yield so the other shared tasks also acquire in shared state
            /// while this task currently holds the mutex in shared state.
            co_await tp->yield();
            std::cerr << "shared task " << i << " unlock_shared()\n";
        }
        co_return;
    };

    auto make_exclusive_task = [&]() -> coro::task<void> {
        co_await tp->schedule();

        std::cerr << "exclusive task lock()\n";
        auto scoped_lock = co_await mutex.lock();
        std::cerr << "exclusive task lock() acquired\n";
        // Do the exclusive work..
        std::cerr << "exclusive task unlock()\n";

Example output, notice how the (4,5,6) shared tasks attempt to acquire the lock in a shared state but are blocked behind the exclusive waiter until it completes:

semaphore

The coro::semaphore is a thread safe async tool to protect a limited number of resources by only allowing so many consumers to acquire the resources a single time. The coro::semaphore also has a maximum number of resources denoted by its constructor. This means if a resource is produced or released when the semaphore is at its maximum resource availability then the release operation will await for space to become available. This is useful for a ringbuffer type situation where the resources are produced and then consumed, but will have no effect on a semaphores usage if there is a set known quantity of resources to start with and are acquired and then released back.

#include <coro/coro.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // Have more threads/tasks than the semaphore will allow for at any given point in time.
    coro::thread_pool tp{coro::thread_pool::options{.thread_count = 8}};
    coro::semaphore   semaphore{2};

    auto make_rate_limited_task = [&](uint64_t task_num) -> coro::task<void>
    {
        co_await tp.schedule();

        // This will only allow 2 tasks through at any given point in time, all other tasks will
        // await the resource to be available before proceeding.
        auto result = co_await semaphore.acquire();
        if (result == coro::semaphore::acquire_result::acquired)
        {
            std::cout << task_num << ", ";
            semaphore.release();
        }
        else
        {
            std::cout << task_num << " failed to acquire semaphore [" << coro::semaphore::to_string(result) << "],";
        }
        co_return;
    };

    const size_t                  num_tasks{100};
    std::vector<coro::task<void>> tasks{};
    for (size_t i = 1; i <= num_tasks; ++i)
    {
        tasks.emplace_back(make_rate_limited_task(i));
    }

    coro::sync_wait(coro::when_all(std::move(tasks)));
}

Expected output, note that there is no lock around the std::cout so some of the output isn't perfect.

ring_buffer

The coro::ring_buffer<element, num_elements> is thread safe async multi-producer multi-consumer statically sized ring buffer. Producers that try to produce a value when the ring buffer is full will suspend until space is available. Consumers that try to consume a value when the ring buffer is empty will suspend until space is available. All waiters on the ring buffer for producing or consuming are resumed in a LIFO manner when their respective operation becomes available.

thread_pool

coro::thread_pool is a statically sized pool of worker threads to execute scheduled coroutines from a FIFO queue. To schedule a coroutine on a thread pool the pool's schedule() function should be co_awaited to transfer the execution from the current thread to a thread pool worker thread. Its important to note that scheduling will first place the coroutine into the FIFO queue and will be picked up by the first available thread in the pool, e.g. there could be a delay if there is a lot of work queued up.

io_scheduler

coro::io_scheduler is a i/o event scheduler that can use two methods of task processing:

A background coro::thread_pool
Inline task processing on the coro::io_scheduler's event loop

Using a background coro::thread_pool will default to using (std::thread::hardware_concurrency() - 1) threads to process tasks. This processing strategy is best for longer tasks that would block the i/o scheduler or for tasks that are latency sensitive.

Using the inline processing strategy will have the event loop i/o thread process the tasks inline on that thread when events are received. This processing strategy is best for shorter task that will not block the i/o thread for long or for pure throughput by using thread per core architecture, e.g. spin up an inline i/o scheduler per core and inline process tasks on each scheduler.

The coro::io_scheduler can use a dedicated spawned thread for processing events that are ready or it can be maually driven via its process_events() function for integration into existing event loops. By default i/o schedulers will spawn a dedicated event thread and use a thread pool to process tasks.

Before getting to an example there are two methods of scheduling work onto an i/o scheduler, the first is by having the caller maintain the lifetime of the task being scheduled and the second is by moving or transfering owership of the task into the i/o scheduler. The first can allow for return values but requires the caller to manage the lifetime of the coroutine while the second requires the return type of the task to be void but allows for variable or unknown task lifetimes. Transferring task lifetime to the scheduler can be useful, e.g. for a network request.

The example provided here shows an i/o scheduler that spins up a basic coro::net::tcp::server and a coro::net::tcp::client that will connect to each other and then send a request and a response.

        .thread_strategy = coro::io_scheduler::thread_strategy_t::spawn,
        // If the scheduler is in spawn mode this functor is called upon starting the dedicated
        // event processor thread.

        // The io scheduler can use a coro::thread_pool to process the events or tasks it is given.

task_container

coro::task_container is a special container type that will maintain the lifetime of tasks that do not have a known lifetime. This is extremely useful for tasks that hold open connections to clients and possibly process multiple requests from that client before shutting down. The task doesn't know how long it will be alive but at some point in the future it will complete and need to have its resources cleaned up. The coro::task_container does this by wrapping the users task into anothe coroutine task that will mark itself for deletion upon completing within the parent task container. The task container should then run garbage collection periodically, or by default when a new task is added, to prune completed tasks from the container.

All tasks that are stored within a coro::task_container must have a void return type since their result cannot be accessed due to the task's lifetime being indeterminate.

Contributing

Contributing is welcome, if you have ideas or bugs please open an issue. If you want to open a PR they are also welcome, if you are adding a bugfix or a feature please include tests to verify the feature or bugfix is working properly. If it isn't included I will be asking for you to add some!

Tests

The tests will automatically be run by github actions on creating a pull request. They can also be ran locally after building from the build directory:

# Invoke via cmake with all output from the tests displayed to console:
ctest -VV

# Or invoke directly, can pass the name of tests to execute, the framework used is catch2.
# Tests are tagged with their group, below is how to run all of the coro::net::tcp::server tests:
./test/libcoro_test "[tcp_server]"

If you open a PR for a bugfix or new feature please include tests to verify that the change is working as intended. If your PR doesn't include tests I will ask you to add them and won't merge until they are added and working properly. Tests are found in the /test directory and are organized by object type.
