# Blocking vs Non-blocking

The default behavior of the ring buffer is non-blocking, 
meaning that reads and writes will return immediately with an error if the operation cannot be completed.
If you want to block when reading or writing, you must enable it:

```go
	rb := ringbuffer.New(1024).SetBlocking(true)
```

Enabling blocking will cause the ring buffer to behave like a buffered [io.Pipe](https://pkg.go.dev/io#Pipe).

	console  *console.Target
	nodeName string
	logBuf   *ring.Ring
}

// NewConsoleLogger - creates new HTTPConsoleLoggerSys with all nodes subscribed to
// the console logging pub sub system
func NewConsoleLogger(ctx context.Context, w io.Writer) *HTTPConsoleLoggerSys {
	return &HTTPConsoleLoggerSys{
		pubsub:  pubsub.New[log.Info, madmin.LogMask](8),
		console: console.New(w),
		logBuf:  ring.New(defaultLogBufferCount),
	}
}

```

## Verify the configuration and alerts
To verify the above sample alert follow below steps

1. Start a distributed MinIO instance (4 nodes setup)
2. Start Prometheus server and AlertManager
3. Bring down couple of MinIO instances to bring down the Erasure Set tolerance to -1 and verify the same with `mc admin prometheus metrics ALIAS | grep minio_cluster_health_erasure_set_status`

	return &RingBuffer{
		buf:  b,
		size: len(b),
	}
}

// SetBlocking sets the blocking mode of the ring buffer.
// If block is true, Read and Write will block when there is no data to read or no space to write.
// If block is false, Read and Write will return ErrIsEmpty or ErrIsFull immediately.
// By default, the ring buffer is not blocking.
// This setting should be called before any Read or Write operation or after a Reset.

## Dispatch

For synchronous calls, you bring your own thread and are responsible for managing how many simultaneous requests you make. Too many simultaneous connections wastes resources; too few harms latency.
