“#define X X”是什么意思？

Question

在Linux头文件epoll.h中，我找到了以下代码：

enum EPOLL_EVENTS
{
    EPOLLIN = 0x001,
#define EPOLLIN EPOLLIN
...
}

#define EPOLLIN EPOLLIN是什么意思？

Answer 1

#define EPOLLIN EPOLLIN

这将预处理器宏 EPOLLIN 定义为 EPOLLIN。

它可能是为了以后 #ifdef EPOLLIN 检查的目的而定义的。

Answer 2

这将创建一个名为 EPOLLIN 的宏，其替换文本也是 EPOLLIN。

这很可能是预处理器检查哪些事件代码可用并根据需要有条件地编译代码的一种方式。如果我们转到 glibc 的 git 存储库并查看 git blame 的输出，我们会看到 enum EPOLL_EVENTS 的以下内容：

ad3bf20c (Ulrich Drepper 2002-12-16 23:38:42 +0000  34) enum EPOLL_EVENTS
ad3bf20c (Ulrich Drepper 2002-12-16 23:38:42 +0000  35)   {

5e826ab5 (Ulrich Drepper 2003-03-25 01:14:36 +0000  54)     EPOLLHUP = 0x010,

94833f11 (Ulrich Drepper 2007-10-28 01:34:10 +0000  56)     EPOLLRDHUP = 0x2000,
94833f11 (Ulrich Drepper 2007-10-28 01:34:10 +0000  57) #define EPOLLRDHUP EPOLLRDHUP
981569c7 (Joseph Myers   2016-03-14 19:04:53 +0000  58)     EPOLLEXCLUSIVE = 1u << 28,
981569c7 (Joseph Myers   2016-03-14 19:04:53 +0000  59) #define EPOLLEXCLUSIVE EPOLLEXCLUSIVE

f8d44fdc (Andreas Jaeger 2012-07-26 13:11:33 +0200  61) #define EPOLLWAKEUP EPOLLWAKEUP
4920765e (Ulrich Drepper 2011-12-21 22:14:05 -0500  62)     EPOLLONESHOT = 1u << 30,
e11676dd (Ulrich Drepper 2004-01-21 06:23:26 +0000  63) #define EPOLLONESHOT EPOLLONESHOT
4920765e (Ulrich Drepper 2011-12-21 22:14:05 -0500  64)     EPOLLET = 1u << 31
5e826ab5 (Ulrich Drepper 2003-03-25 01:14:36 +0000  65) #define EPOLLET EPOLLET
ad3bf20c (Ulrich Drepper 2002-12-16 23:38:42 +0000  66)   };

从这里，您可以看到这些事件中的大部分是在 2002 年创建的，但后来添加了一些其他事件。因此，这些宏允许您检查特定标志是否可用，如下所示：

#ifdef EPOLLEXCLUSIVE 
/* code that can handle EPOLLEXCLUSIVE */
#else
/* code that uses an alternate event */
#endif

这样，代码可以运行在具有可用新事件的较新 Linux 版本或不可用的旧版本上。
