“Future 不是魔法，而是一个三态状态机：Pending → Ready → Poll 再次驱动。”

---

0 背景：为什么要重新理解 Poll？

• Tokio 调度 100 万任务 时，每个 Future 的 poll 平均耗时 < 20 ns
• 错误的状态机设计 会导致 CPU 空转 或 内存泄漏
• 手动实现 Stream 时，必须理解 Pin<&mut Self> 与 Waker 的生命周期

本文将：

1. 逐行手写一个可工作的 Future/Stream
2. 实现三种状态机：计时器、文件 I/O、广播通道
3. 给出 100 万任务调度基准
4. 提供可复用模板仓库 rust-poll-showcase

1 Poll 机制总览

概念	作用	典型场景
Future::poll	驱动状态机	async/await
Waker	通知调度器	epoll/kqueue
Pin<&mut T>	自引用安全	生成器
Context	携带 Waker	运行时

2 最小可运行基线

2.1 依赖

[dependencies]
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }
futures = "0.3"
pin-project = "1"

2.2 手写最简单的 Future

use std::{
    future::Future,
    pin::Pin,
    task::{Context, Poll},
    time::{Duration, Instant},
};

pub struct Delay {
    when: Instant,
}

impl Delay {
    pub fn new(dur: Duration) -> Self {
        Delay {
            when: Instant::now() + dur,
        }
    }
}

impl Future for Delay {
    type Output = ();

    fn poll(self: Pin<&mut Self>, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Self::Output> {
        if Instant::now() >= self.when {
            Poll::Ready(())
        } else {
            // 注册 waker
            let waker = cx.waker().clone();
            let when = self.when;
            tokio::spawn(async move {
                tokio::time::sleep_until(when.into()).await;
                waker.wake();
            });
            Poll::Pending
        }
    }
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(100)).await;
    println!("Timer fired!");
}

---

3 状态机：计时器

3.1 三态枚举

#[derive(Debug)]
enum TimerState {
    Init { dur: Duration },
    Waiting { deadline: Instant, waker: Option<Waker> },
    Ready,
}

3.2 状态转换

use std::mem;

impl Future for TimerFuture {
    type Output = ();

    fn poll(mut self: Pin<&mut Self>, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Self::Output> {
        loop {
            match mem::replace(&mut self.state, TimerState::Ready) {
                TimerState::Init { dur } => {
                    let deadline = Instant::now() + dur;
                    self.state = TimerState::Waiting {
                        deadline,
                        waker: Some(cx.waker().clone()),
                    };
                    tokio::spawn(async move {
                        tokio::time::sleep_until(deadline.into()).await;
                    });
                    return Poll::Pending;
                }
                TimerState::Waiting { deadline, waker } => {
                    if Instant::now() >= deadline {
                        self.state = TimerState::Ready;
                        return Poll::Ready(());
                    } else {
                        self.state = TimerState::Waiting { deadline, waker };
                        return Poll::Pending;
                    }
                }
                TimerState::Ready => return Poll::Ready(()),
            }
        }
    }
}

4 状态机：文件 I/O

4.1 异步文件读取

use tokio::fs::File;
use tokio::io::{AsyncReadExt, AsyncSeekExt};
use std::io::SeekFrom;

enum FileState {
    Opening { path: String },
    Reading { file: File, buf: Vec<u8>, pos: u64 },
    Ready(Vec<u8>),
}

impl Future for FileReadFuture {
    type Output = io::Result<Vec<u8>>;

    fn poll(mut self: Pin<&mut Self>, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Self::Output> {
        loop {
            match mem::replace(&mut self.state, FileState::Ready(Vec::new())) {
                FileState::Opening { path } => {
                    let file = match File::open(&path).poll_unpin(cx)? {
                        Poll::Ready(f) => f,
                        Poll::Pending => {
                            self.state = FileState::Opening { path };
                            return Poll::Pending;
                        }
                    };
                    self.state = FileState::Reading {
                        file,
                        buf: Vec::with_capacity(4096),
                        pos: 0,
                    };
                }
                FileState::Reading { mut file, mut buf, pos } => {
                    match file.read_buf(&mut buf).poll_unpin(cx)? {
                        Poll::Ready(0) => {
                            self.state = FileState::Ready(buf);
                            return Poll::Ready(Ok(buf));
                        }
                        Poll::Ready(_) => {
                            self.state = FileState::Reading { file, buf, pos: pos + buf.len() as u64 };
                        }
                        Poll::Pending => {
                            self.state = FileState::Reading { file, buf, pos };
                            return Poll::Pending;
                        }
                    }
                }
                FileState::Ready(buf) => return Poll::Ready(Ok(buf)),
            }
        }
    }
}

5 状态机：广播通道

5.1 自定义 Stream

use tokio::sync::broadcast;
use std::pin::Pin;

pub struct BroadcastStream<T> {
    rx: broadcast::Receiver<T>,
}

impl<T: Clone> Stream for BroadcastStream<T> {
    type Item = T;

    fn poll_next(self: Pin<&mut Self>, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Option<Self::Item>> {
        match self.rx.poll_recv(cx) {
            Poll::Ready(Some(item)) => Poll::Ready(Some(item)),
            Poll::Ready(None) => Poll::Ready(None),
            Poll::Pending => Poll::Pending,
        }
    }
}

6 100 万任务调度基准

6.1 环境

• CPU：AMD EPYC 7713 64C
• 内存：256 GB
• 任务：100 万 Delay Future

6.2 基准代码

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let start = std::time::Instant::now();
    let handles = (0..1_000_000)
        .map(|_| tokio::spawn(Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(100))))
        .collect::<Vec<_>>();

    for h in handles {
        h.await.unwrap();
    }

    println!("Elapsed: {:?}", start.elapsed());
}

7 手动优化：Pin + Waker 缓存

7.1 避免重复分配

use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicBool, Ordering};

pub struct OneShot {
    ready: AtomicBool,
    waker: Mutex<Option<Waker>>,
}

impl Future for OneShot {
    type Output = ();

    fn poll(self: Pin<&mut Self>, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Self::Output> {
        if self.ready.load(Ordering::Acquire) {
            Poll::Ready(())
        } else {
            *self.waker.lock().unwrap() = Some(cx.waker().clone());
            Poll::Pending
        }
    }

    pub fn wake(&self) {
        self.ready.store(true, Ordering::Release);
        if let Some(waker) = &*self.waker.lock().unwrap() {
            waker.wake_by_ref();
        }
    }
}
