Sync primitive types whose methods panic rather than returning error in case of poison. //! //! The Mutex/Condvar type in this crates wraps the standard library versions and mirrors the same //! methods, except that they panic where the standard library would return an Error. This API //! codifies our error handling strategy around poisoned mutexes in crosvm. //! //! - Crosvm releases are built with panic=abort so poisoning never occurs. A panic while a mutex is //! held (or ever) takes down the entire process. Thus we would like for code not to have to //! consider the possibility of poison. //! //! - We could ask developers to always write `.lock().unwrap()` on a standard library mutex. //! However, we would like to stigmatize the use of unwrap. It is confusing to permit unwrap but //! only on mutex lock results. During code review it may not always be obvious whether a //! particular unwrap is unwrapping a mutex lock result or a different error that should be //! handled in a more principled way. //! //! Developers should feel free to use types defined in this crate anywhere in crosvm that they //! would otherwise be using the corresponding types in std::sync. mod condvar; mod mutex; use std::sync::Arc; use std::sync::WaitTimeoutResult; use std::time::Duration; pub use crate::condvar::Condvar; pub use crate::mutex::Mutex; pub use crate::mutex::WouldBlock; /// Waitable allows one thread to wait on a signal from another thread. /// /// A Waitable is usually created with a Promise using /// `create_promise_and_waitable`, and the Promise is used by one thread and the /// Waitable can be used by another thread.
