+//! Multi-producer, single-consumer FIFO queue communication primitives.
+//!
+//! This module provides message-based communication over channels, concretely
+//! defined among three types:
+//!
+//! * `Sender`
+//! * `SyncSender`
+//! * `Receiver`
+//!
+//! A `Sender` or `SyncSender` is used to send data to a `Receiver`. Both
+//! senders are clone-able (multi-producer) such that many threads can send
+//! simultaneously to one receiver (single-consumer).
+//!
+//! These channels come in two flavors:
+//!
+//! 1. An asynchronous, infinitely buffered channel. The `channel()` function
+//!    will return a `(Sender, Receiver)` tuple where all sends will be
+//!    **asynchronous** (they never block). The channel conceptually has an
+//!    infinite buffer.
+//!
+//! 2. A synchronous, bounded channel. The `sync_channel()` function will return
+//!    a `(SyncSender, Receiver)` tuple where the storage for pending messages
+//!    is a pre-allocated buffer of a fixed size. All sends will be
+//!    **synchronous** by blocking until there is buffer space available. Note
+//!    that a bound of 0 is allowed, causing the channel to become a
+//!    "rendezvous" channel where each sender atomically hands off a message to
+//!    a receiver.
+//!
+//! ## Disconnection
+//!
+//! The send and receive operations on channels will all return a `Result`
+//! indicating whether the operation succeeded or not. An unsuccessful operation
+//! is normally indicative of the other half of a channel having "hung up" by
+//! being dropped in its corresponding thread.
+//!
+//! Once half of a channel has been deallocated, most operations can no longer
+//! continue to make progress, so `Err` will be returned. Many applications will
+//! continue to `unwrap()` the results returned from this module, instigating a
+//! propagation of failure among threads if one unexpectedly dies.
+//!
+//! # Examples
+//!
+//! Simple usage:
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use std::thread;
+//! use std::sync::mpsc::channel;
+//!
+//! // Create a simple streaming channel
+//! let (tx, rx) = channel();
+//! thread::spawn(move|| {
+//!     tx.send(10).unwrap();
+//! });
+//! assert_eq!(rx.recv().unwrap(), 10);
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Shared usage:
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use std::thread;
+//! use std::sync::mpsc::channel;
+//!
+//! // Create a shared channel that can be sent along from many threads
+//! // where tx is the sending half (tx for transmission), and rx is the receiving
+//! // half (rx for receiving).
+//! let (tx, rx) = channel();
+//! for i in 0..10 {
+//!     let tx = tx.clone();
+//!     thread::spawn(move|| {
+//!         tx.send(i).unwrap();
+//!     });
+//! }
+//!
+//! for _ in 0..10 {
+//!     let j = rx.recv().unwrap();
+//!     assert!(0 <= j && j < 10);
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Propagating panics:
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use std::sync::mpsc::channel;
+//!
+//! // The call to recv() will return an error because the channel has already
+//! // hung up (or been deallocated)
+//! let (tx, rx) = channel::<i32>();
+//! drop(tx);
+//! assert!(rx.recv().is_err());
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Synchronous channels:
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use std::thread;
+//! use std::sync::mpsc::sync_channel;
+//!
+//! let (tx, rx) = sync_channel::<i32>(0);
+//! thread::spawn(move|| {
+//!     // This will wait for the parent thread to start receiving
+//!     tx.send(53).unwrap();
+//! });
+//! rx.recv().unwrap();
+//! ```

+
+// A description of how Rust's channel implementation works
+//
+// Channels are supposed to be the basic building block for all other
+// concurrent primitives that are used in Rust. As a result, the channel type
+// needs to be highly optimized, flexible, and broad enough for use everywhere.
+//
+// The choice of implementation of all channels is to be built on lock-free data
+// structures. The channels themselves are then consequently also lock-free data
+// structures. As always with lock-free code, this is a very "here be dragons"
+// territory, especially because I'm unaware of any academic papers that have
+// gone into great length about channels of these flavors.
+//
+// ## Flavors of channels
+//
+// From the perspective of a consumer of this library, there is only one flavor
+// of channel. This channel can be used as a stream and cloned to allow multiple
+// senders. Under the hood, however, there are actually three flavors of
+// channels in play.
+//
+// * Flavor::Oneshots - these channels are highly optimized for the one-send use
+//                      case. They contain as few atomics as possible and
+//                      involve one and exactly one allocation.
+// * Streams - these channels are optimized for the non-shared use case. They
+//             use a different concurrent queue that is more tailored for this
+//             use case. The initial allocation of this flavor of channel is not
+//             optimized.
+// * Shared - this is the most general form of channel that this module offers,
+//            a channel with multiple senders. This type is as optimized as it
+//            can be, but the previous two types mentioned are much faster for
+//            their use-cases.
+//
+// ## Concurrent queues
+//
+// The basic idea of Rust's Sender/Receiver types is that send() never blocks,
+// but recv() obviously blocks. This means that under the hood there must be
+// some shared and concurrent queue holding all of the actual data.
+//
+// With two flavors of channels, two flavors of queues are also used. We have
+// chosen to use queues from a well-known author that are abbreviated as SPSC
+// and MPSC (single producer, single consumer and multiple producer, single
+// consumer). SPSC queues are used for streams while MPSC queues are used for
+// shared channels.
+//
+// ### SPSC optimizations
+//
+// The SPSC queue found online is essentially a linked list of nodes where one
+// half of the nodes are the "queue of data" and the other half of nodes are a
+// cache of unused nodes. The unused nodes are used such that an allocation is
+// not required on every push() and a free doesn't need to happen on every
+// pop().
+//
+// As found online, however, the cache of nodes is of an infinite size. This
+// means that if a channel at one point in its life had 50k items in the queue,
+// then the queue will always have the capacity for 50k items. I believed that
+// this was an unnecessary limitation of the implementation, so I have altered
+// the queue to optionally have a bound on the cache size.
+//
+// By default, streams will have an unbounded SPSC queue with a small-ish cache
+// size. The hope is that the cache is still large enough to have very fast
+// send() operations while not too large such that millions of channels can
+// coexist at once.
+//
+// ### MPSC optimizations
+//
+// Right now the MPSC queue has not been optimized. Like the SPSC queue, it uses
+// a linked list under the hood to earn its unboundedness, but I have not put
+// forth much effort into having a cache of nodes similar to the SPSC queue.
+//
+// For now, I believe that this is "ok" because shared channels are not the most
+// common type, but soon we may wish to revisit this queue choice and determine
+// another candidate for backend storage of shared channels.
+//
+// ## Overview of the Implementation
+//
+// Now that there's a little background on the concurrent queues used, it's
+// worth going into much more detail about the channels themselves. The basic
+// pseudocode for a send/recv are:
+//
+//
+//      send(t)                             recv()
+//        queue.push(t)                       return if queue.pop()
+//        if increment() == -1                deschedule {
+//          wakeup()                            if decrement() > 0
+//                                                cancel_deschedule()
+//                                            }
+//                                            queue.pop()
+//
+// As mentioned before, there are no locks in this implementation, only atomic
+// instructions are used.
+//
+// ### The internal atomic counter
+//
+// Every channel has a shared counter with each half to keep track of the size
+// of the queue. This counter is used to abort descheduling by the receiver and
+// to know when to wake up on the sending side.
+//
+// As seen in the pseudocode, senders will increment this count and receivers
+// will decrement the count. The theory behind this is that if a sender sees a
+// -1 count, it will wake up the receiver, and if the receiver sees a 1+ count,
+// then it doesn't need to block.
+//
+// The recv() method has a beginning call to pop(), and if successful, it needs
+// to decrement the count. It is a crucial implementation detail that this
+// decrement does *not* happen to the shared counter. If this were the case,
+// then it would be possible for the counter to be very negative when there were
+// no receivers waiting, in which case the senders would have to determine when
+// it was actually appropriate to wake up a receiver.
+//
+// Instead, the "steal count" is kept track of separately (not atomically
+// because it's only used by receivers), and then the decrement() call when
+// descheduling will lump in all of the recent steals into one large decrement.
+//
+// The implication of this is that if a sender sees a -1 count, then there's
+// guaranteed to be a waiter waiting!
+//
+// ## Native Implementation
+//
+// A major goal of these channels is to work seamlessly on and off the runtime.
+// All of the previous race conditions have been worded in terms of
+// scheduler-isms (which is obviously not available without the runtime).
+//
+// For now, native usage of channels (off the runtime) will fall back onto
+// mutexes/cond vars for descheduling/atomic decisions. The no-contention path
+// is still entirely lock-free, the "deschedule" blocks above are surrounded by
+// a mutex and the "wakeup" blocks involve grabbing a mutex and signaling on a
+// condition variable.
+//
+// ## Select
+//
+// Being able to support selection over channels has greatly influenced this
+// design, and not only does selection need to work inside the runtime, but also
+// outside the runtime.
+//
+// The implementation is fairly straightforward. The goal of select() is not to
+// return some data, but only to return which channel can receive data without
+// blocking. The implementation is essentially the entire blocking procedure
+// followed by an increment as soon as its woken up. The cancellation procedure
+// involves an increment and swapping out of to_wake to acquire ownership of the
+// thread to unblock.
+//
+// Sadly this current implementation requires multiple allocations, so I have
+// seen the throughput of select() be much worse than it should be. I do not
+// believe that there is anything fundamental that needs to change about these
+// channels, however, in order to support a more efficient select().
+//
+// # Conclusion
+//
+// And now that you've seen all the races that I found and attempted to fix,
+// here's the code for you to find some more!

+/// Oneshot channels/ports
+///
+/// This is the initial flavor of channels/ports used for comm module. This is
+/// an optimization for the one-use case of a channel. The major optimization of
+/// this type is to have one and exactly one allocation when the chan/port pair
+/// is created.
+///
+/// Another possible optimization would be to not use an Arc box because
+/// in theory we know when the shared packet can be deallocated (no real need
+/// for the atomic reference counting), but I was having trouble how to destroy
+/// the data early in a drop of a Port.
+///
+/// # Implementation
+///
+/// Oneshots are implemented around one atomic usize variable. This variable
+/// indicates both the state of the port/chan but also contains any threads
+/// blocked on the port. All atomic operations happen on this one word.
+///
+/// In order to upgrade a oneshot channel, an upgrade is considered a disconnect
+/// on behalf of the channel side of things (it can be mentally thought of as
+/// consuming the port). This upgrade is then also stored in the shared packet.
+/// The one caveat to consider is that when a port sees a disconnected channel
+/// it must check for data because there is no "data plus upgrade" state.

+//! Selection over an array of receivers
+//!
+//! This module contains the implementation machinery necessary for selecting
+//! over a number of receivers. One large goal of this module is to provide an
+//! efficient interface to selecting over any receiver of any type.
+//!
+//! This is achieved through an architecture of a "receiver set" in which
+//! receivers are added to a set and then the entire set is waited on at once.
+//! The set can be waited on multiple times to prevent re-adding each receiver
+//! to the set.
+//!
+//! Usage of this module is currently encouraged to go through the use of the
+//! `select!` macro. This macro allows naturally binding of variables to the
+//! received values of receivers in a much more natural syntax then usage of the
+//! `Select` structure directly.
+//!
+//! # Examples
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! #![feature(mpsc_select)]
+//!
+//! use std::sync::mpsc::channel;
+//!
+//! let (tx1, rx1) = channel();
+//! let (tx2, rx2) = channel();
+//!
+//! tx1.send(1).unwrap();
+//! tx2.send(2).unwrap();
+//!
+//! select! {
+//!     val = rx1.recv() => {
+//!         assert_eq!(val.unwrap(), 1);
+//!     },
+//!     val = rx2.recv() => {
+//!         assert_eq!(val.unwrap(), 2);
+//!     }
+//! }
+//! ```

+
+/// Synchronous channels/ports
+///
+/// This channel implementation differs significantly from the asynchronous
+/// implementations found next to it (oneshot/stream/share). This is an
+/// implementation of a synchronous, bounded buffer channel.
+///
+/// Each channel is created with some amount of backing buffer, and sends will
+/// *block* until buffer space becomes available. A buffer size of 0 is valid,
+/// which means that every successful send is paired with a successful recv.
+///
+/// This flavor of channels defines a new `send_opt` method for channels which
+/// is the method by which a message is sent but the thread does not panic if it
+/// cannot be delivered.
+///
+/// Another major difference is that send() will *always* return back the data
+/// if it couldn't be sent. This is because it is deterministically known when
+/// the data is received and when it is not received.
+///
+/// Implementation-wise, it can all be summed up with "use a mutex plus some
+/// logic". The mutex used here is an OS native mutex, meaning that no user code
+/// is run inside of the mutex (to prevent context switching). This
+/// implementation shares almost all code for the buffered and unbuffered cases
+/// of a synchronous channel. There are a few branches for the unbuffered case,
+/// but they're mostly just relevant to blocking senders.

+//! A "once initialization" primitive
+//!
+//! This primitive is meant to be used to run one-time initialization. An
+//! example use case would be for initializing an FFI library.
+
+// A "once" is a relatively simple primitive, and it's also typically provided
+// by the OS as well (see `pthread_once` or `InitOnceExecuteOnce`). The OS
+// primitives, however, tend to have surprising restrictions, such as the Unix
+// one doesn't allow an argument to be passed to the function.
+//
+// As a result, we end up implementing it ourselves in the standard library.
+// This also gives us the opportunity to optimize the implementation a bit which
+// should help the fast path on call sites. Consequently, let's explain how this
+// primitive works now!
+//
+// So to recap, the guarantees of a Once are that it will call the
+// initialization closure at most once, and it will never return until the one
+// that's running has finished running. This means that we need some form of
+// blocking here while the custom callback is running at the very least.
+// Additionally, we add on the restriction of **poisoning**. Whenever an
+// initialization closure panics, the Once enters a "poisoned" state which means
+// that all future calls will immediately panic as well.
+//
+// So to implement this, one might first reach for a `StaticMutex`, but those
+// unfortunately need to be deallocated (e.g. call `destroy()`) to free memory
+// on all OSes (some of the BSDs allocate memory for mutexes). It also gets a
+// lot harder with poisoning to figure out when the mutex needs to be
+// deallocated because it's not after the closure finishes, but after the first
+// successful closure finishes.
+//
+// All in all, this is instead implemented with atomics and lock-free
+// operations! Whee! Each `Once` has one word of atomic state, and this state is
+// CAS'd on to determine what to do. There are four possible state of a `Once`:
+//
+// * Incomplete - no initialization has run yet, and no thread is currently
+//                using the Once.
+// * Poisoned - some thread has previously attempted to initialize the Once, but
+//              it panicked, so the Once is now poisoned. There are no other
+//              threads currently accessing this Once.
+// * Running - some thread is currently attempting to run initialization. It may
+//             succeed, so all future threads need to wait for it to finish.
+//             Note that this state is accompanied with a payload, described
+//             below.
+// * Complete - initialization has completed and all future calls should finish
+//              immediately.
+//
+// With 4 states we need 2 bits to encode this, and we use the remaining bits
+// in the word we have allocated as a queue of threads waiting for the thread
+// responsible for entering the RUNNING state. This queue is just a linked list
+// of Waiter nodes which is monotonically increasing in size. Each node is
+// allocated on the stack, and whenever the running closure finishes it will
+// consume the entire queue and notify all waiters they should try again.
+//
+// You'll find a few more details in the implementation, but that's the gist of
+// it!
