22
23/// The implementation of waking a task on an executor.
24///
25/// This is an equivalent to [`std::task::Wake`], but using [`portable_atomic_util::Arc`](crate::Arc)
26/// as a reference-counted pointer. See the documentation for [`std::task::Wake`] for more details.
27///
28/// **Note:** Unlike `std::task::Wake`, all methods take `this:` instead of `self:`.
29/// This is because using `portable_atomic_util::Arc` as a receiver requires the
30/// [unstable `arbitrary_self_types` feature](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44874).
31///
32/// # Examples
33///
34/// A basic `block_on` function that takes a future and runs it to completion on
35/// the current thread.
36///
37/// **Note:** This example trades correctness for simplicity. In order to prevent
38/// deadlocks, production-grade implementations will also need to handle
39/// intermediate calls to `thread::unpark` as well as nested invocations.
40///
41/// ```
42/// use portable_atomic_util::{task::Wake, Arc};
43/// use std::{
44///     future::Future,
45///     task::{Context, Poll},
46///     thread::{self, Thread},
47/// };
48///
49/// /// A waker that wakes up the current thread when called.
50/// struct ThreadWaker(Thread);
51///
52/// impl Wake for ThreadWaker {
53///     fn wake(this: Arc<Self>) {
54///         this.0.unpark();
55///     }
56/// }
57///
58/// /// Run a future to completion on the current thread.
59/// fn block_on<T>(fut: impl Future<Output = T>) -> T {
60///     // Pin the future so it can be polled.
61///     let mut fut = Box::pin(fut);
62///
63///     // Create a new context to be passed to the future.
64///     let t = thread::current();
65///     let waker = Arc::new(ThreadWaker(t)).into();
66///     let mut cx = Context::from_waker(&waker);
67///
68///     // Run the future to completion.
69///     loop {
70///         match fut.as_mut().poll(&mut cx) {
71///             Poll::Ready(res) => return res,
72///             Poll::Pending => thread::park(),
73///         }
74///     }
