Currently CConnman is a mixture of:
- low level socket handling, e.g. send, recv, poll, bind, listen, connect, and
- higher level logic that is specific to the Bitcoin P2P protocol, e.g. V1/V2 transport, choosing which address to connect to, if we manage to connect mark the address good in
AddrMan, maintaining the number of inbound and outbound connections, banning of peers, interacting withPeerManager.
This PR splits the socket handling into a new class which makes the code more modular and reusable. The aim is to (re)use that for Stratum V2 and for libevent-less RPC/HTTP server.
The socket operations are driven by the new class SockMan which informs the higher level via provided methods when e.g. new data arrives on the socket or a new connection is accepted. For this, SockMan provides some non-virtual methods to start it rolling and then it calls pure virtual methods which are implemented by the higher level (e.g. CConnman) on certain events, for example “got this new data on this node’s socket”.
The public interface of SockMan is:
0/**
1 * A socket manager class which handles socket operations.
2 * To use this class, inherit from it and implement the pure virtual methods.
3 * Handled operations:
4 * - binding and listening on sockets
5 * - starting of necessary threads to process socket operations
6 * - accepting incoming connections
7 * - making outbound connections
8 * - closing connections
9 * - waiting for IO readiness on sockets and doing send/recv accordingly
