Nat Goodspeed 87551c5419 Snapshot of ongoing pass through Fiber documentation.
Highlight predicate condition_variable::wait() method in condition_variable
front matter.

Rewrite the explanation of wait()'s Precondition.

Add a condition_variables subsection about no spurious condition_variable
wakeups. Remove "or spuriously" from wakeup conditions in wait*() methods.
First pass through "spurious wakeup" section in Rationale.

First pass through migration.qbk. Use lock_t throughout work_sharing.cpp,
instead of lock_t, lock_count and explicit std::unique_lock<std::mutex>
declarations. Unify treatment of main and dispatcher fibers.

Clarify thread-safety requirements on sched_algorithm::notify() and
suspend_until().

Clarify disable_interruption when rethrowing fiber_interrupted.

Consolidate future<T>::get(): returns T whether T is R, R& or void.

Mention nesting of disable_interruption (which matters) versus nesting of
restore_interruption (which doesn't). Mention that a disable_interruption
constructed within the scope of another disable_interruption is a no-op, both
itself and when passed to restore_interruption.

When packaged_task::operator()() stores a value or an exception, state "as if"
by promise::set_value() or set_exception(): the shared state is set ready.
Similarly for ~packaged_task() and ~promise() setting broken_promise.

Sprinkle links to the Allocator concept, std::allocator and
std::allocator_arg_t where referenced. Similarly for StackAllocator.

Add more cross-reference links where Fiber classes and methods are mentioned.
Also things like std::unique_lock and std::mutex.

Clarify error condition for value_pop() when channel is close()d.

Since fiber_specific_ptr::release() does not invoke cleanup, it should not
throw an exception raised during cleanup.

[section:fls Fiber local storage]
[heading Synopsis]
Fiber local storage allows a separate instance of a given data item for
each fiber.
[heading Cleanup at fiber exit]
When a fiber exits, the objects associated with each __fsp__ instance are
destroyed. By default, the object pointed to by a pointer `p` is destroyed by
invoking `delete p`, but this can be overridden for a specific instance of
__fsp__ by providing a cleanup routine `func` to the constructor. In this case, the
object is destroyed by invoking `func(p)`. The cleanup functions are called in an unspecified
order.
[class_heading fiber_specific_ptr]
#include <boost/fiber/fss.hpp>
template< typename T >
class fiber_specific_ptr {
public:
typedef T element_type;
fiber_specific_ptr();
explicit fiber_specific_ptr( void(*fn)(T*) );
~fiber_specific_ptr();
fiber_specific_ptr( fiber_specific_ptr const&) = delete;
fiber_specific_ptr & operator=( fiber_specific_ptr const&) = delete;
T * get() const noexcept;
T * operator->() const noexcept;
T & operator*() const noexcept;
T * release();
void reset( T *);
};
[heading Constructor]
fiber_specific_ptr();
explicit fiber_specific_ptr( void(*fn)(T*) );
[variablelist
[[Requires:] [`delete this->get()` is well-formed; `fn(this->get())` does not
throw]]
[[Effects:] [Construct a __fsp__ object for storing a pointer to an object of
type `T` specific to each fiber. When `reset()` is called, or the
fiber exits, __fsp__ calls `fn(this->get())`. If the no-arguments constructor
is used, the default `delete`-based cleanup function
will be used to destroy the fiber-local objects.]]
[[Throws:] [__fiber_error__ if an error occurs.]]
]
[heading Destructor]
~fiber_specific_ptr();
[variablelist
[[Requires:] [All the fiber specific instances associated to this __fsp__
(except maybe the one associated to this fiber) must be nullptr.]]
[[Effects:] [Calls `this->reset()` to clean up the associated value for the
current fiber, and destroys `*this`.]]
[[Remarks:] [The requirement is an implementation restriction. If the
destructor promised to delete instances for all fibers, the implementation
would be forced to maintain a list of all the fibers having an associated
specific ptr, which is against the goal of fiber specific data. In general, a
__fsp__ should outlive the fibers that use it.]]
]
[note Care needs to be taken to ensure that any fibers still running after an
instance of __fsp__ has been destroyed do not call any member functions on that
instance.]
[member_heading fiber_specific_ptr..get]
T * get() const noexcept;
[variablelist
[[Returns:] [The pointer associated with the current fiber.]]
[[Throws:] [Nothing.]]
]
[note The initial value associated with an instance of __fsp__ is `nullptr` for
each fiber.]
[operator_heading fiber_specific_ptr..operator_arrow..operator->]
T * operator->() const noexcept;
[variablelist
[[Requires:] [`this->get()` is not `nullptr`.]]
[[Returns:] [`this->get()`]]
[[Throws:] [Nothing.]]
]
[operator_heading fiber_specific_ptr..operator_star..operator*]
T & operator*() const noexcept;
[variablelist
[[Requires:] [`this->get()` is not `nullptr`.]]
[[Returns:] [`*(this->get())`]]
[[Throws:] [Nothing.]]
]
[member_heading fiber_specific_ptr..release]
T * release();
[variablelist
[[Effects:] [Return `this->get()` and store `nullptr` as the pointer associated
with the current fiber without invoking the cleanup function.]]
[[Postcondition:] [`this->get()==nullptr`]]
[[Throws:] [Nothing.]]
]
[member_heading fiber_specific_ptr..reset]
void reset( T * new_value);
[variablelist
[[Effects:] [If `this->get()!=new_value` and `this->get()` is not `nullptr`,
invoke `delete this->get()` or `fn(this->get())` as appropriate. Store
`new_value` as the pointer associated with the current fiber.]]
[[Postcondition:] [`this->get()==new_value`]]
[[Throws:] [Exception raised during cleanup of previous value.]]
