- * @defgroup eventloop Main Event Loop module
- *
- * This main event loop module drives the packet processing of OpenVPN.
- *
- * OpenVPN is an event driven system. Its activities are driven by a main
- * event loop, which repeatedly waits for one of several predefined events
- * to occur, and then calls the appropriate module to handle the event.
- * The major types of network events that OpenVPN processes are:
- * - A packet can be read from the external network interface.
- * - The main event loop activates the \link external_multiplexer
- * External Multiplexer\endlink to read and process the packet.
- * - A packet can be read from the virtual tun/tap network interface.
- * - The main event loop activates the \link internal_multiplexer
- * Internal Multiplexer\endlink to read and process the packet.
- * - If a packet is ready to be sent out as a VPN tunnel packet: the
- * external network interface can be written to.
- * - The main event loop activates the \link external_multiplexer
- * External Multiplexer\endlink to send the packet.
- * - If a packet is ready to be sent to a locally reachable destination:
- * the virtual tun/tap network interface can be written to.
- * - The main event loop activates the \link internal_multiplexer
- * Internal Multiplexer\endlink to send the packet.
- *
- * Beside these external events, OpenVPN also processes other types of
- * internal events. These include scheduled events, such as resending of
- * non-acknowledged control channel messages.
- *
- * @par Main event loop implementations
- *
- * Depending on the mode in which OpenVPN is running, a different main
- * event loop function is called to drive the event processing. The
- * following implementations are available:
- * - Client mode using UDP or TCP: \c tunnel_point_to_point()
- * - Server mode using UDP: \c tunnel_server_udp_single_threaded()
- * - Server mode using TCP: \c tunnel_server_tcp()
