//! High-performance task queues.
//!
//! This is a Rust library providing a high-performance, work-stealing task
//! queue data structure.  Consider using it when:
//!
//! - There may be thousands of tasks ready to run at any time.
//! - Tasks are relatively small, synchronous, and CPU-bound.
//! - All available CPUs should be used to maximum capacity.
//! - (Optional) Some tasks have a higher priority than others.
//! - (Optional, coming soon) Grouping certain tasks lets them be executed
//!   efficiently.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! Most of the complexity in setting up `takeaway` is inherent to using any
//! multi-threaded task architecture.  If you're transitioning from a different
//! task queue system into `takeaway`, you'll notice you've already done most of
//! the setup described below.
//!
// TODO: Provide a migration guide?
//
//! First, you need to define a task type, to represent the tasks being
//! executed.  This type must implement the [`Task`] trait.
//!
//! ```no_run
//! /// The task type.
//! struct MyTask;
//!
//! impl takeaway::Task for MyTask {
//!     // These will be automatic defaults in the future.
//!     type Priority = ();
//!     fn priority(&self) -> Self::Priority {}
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! At program startup, you need to initialize a [`Queue`].  The easiest way to
//! do so is use [`Config`], which provides a builder pattern API.  Start with
//! [`Config::default()`] (or [`Config::new()`] without the `std` feature), set
//! any required parameters, and end with [`Config::build()`].
//!
//! During configuration, a number of workers is selected (by default, it will
//! be the estimated from the system resources).  All of these workers must be
//! initialized.
//!
//! ```no_run
//! let queue = takeaway::Config::default()
//! //  .set_batch_size(64.try_into().unwrap())
//! //  .set_oneshot(false)
//!     .build();
//! # let _: takeaway::Queue<()> = queue;
//! let num_workers = queue.config().num_workers();
//! ```
//!
//! Then, start up all your worker threads.  `takeaway` provides a convenient
//! async API, so the main worker thread code should be `async`.  To run an
//! `async fn` on a new thread, you need to wrap it in an async runtime.  If
//! you're going to write your own async code, you can use a fully-fledged
//! executor like [`tokio`]; otherwise [`util::block_on()`] is sufficient.
//!
//! [`tokio`]: https://tokio.rs
//!
//! Within the main body of each worker thread, create a [`Worker`].  Note that
//! you need a unique index for every worker, which you can use to identify the
//! thread as a whole.  Then, you can enqueue any initial tasks you have using
//! [`Worker::enqueue()`].  The main loop is very simple: call
//! [`Worker::next()`] and execute the returned task.
//!
//! ```no_run
//! # use takeaway::{Queue, Worker, util::block_on};
//! #
//! # struct MyTask;
//! # impl takeaway::Task for MyTask {
//! #     type Priority = ();
//! #     fn priority(&self) -> Self::Priority {}
//! # }
//! #
//! # let queue = takeaway::Config::default().build();
//! # let num_workers = queue.config().num_workers();
//! #
//! // Spawn the worker threads.
//! std::thread::scope(|s| {
//!     for id in 0..num_workers.get() {
//!         let queue = &queue;
//!         s.spawn(move || block_on(worker(queue, id)));
//!     }
//! });
//!
//! // The body of each worker thread.
//! async fn worker(queue: &Queue<MyTask>, id: usize) {
//!     // Set up the thread-local queue.
//!     let mut worker = Worker::new(queue, id);
//!
//!     // Seed the worker with initial tasks.
//!     worker.enqueue_one(MyTask);
//!
//!     // The main loop.
//!     while let Some(task) = worker.next().await {
//!         // Inspect and execute the task.
//!         let MyTask = task;
//!         //...
//!
//!         // Optionally, spawn new tasks here.
//!         //worker.enqueue(...);
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! While this program works well enough, there's only problem: it won't
//! terminate.  By default, `takeaway` assumes there are infinite tasks, so
//! [`Worker::next()`] will block until a task is available.  This is perfect
//! if your program operates like a job server.  `takeaway` also supports a
//! _one-shot mode_, where it will automatically shut down when it runs out of
//! tasks; this can be enabled with [`Config::with_oneshot()`].  In any case,
//! a manual shutdown can be initiated at any time via [`Queue::shutdown()`].
//!
//! That's it!  You now have a complete, up-and-running system using `takeaway`.
//!
//! See [the `examples` directory] for some complex programs using `takeaway` to
//! distribute tasks across threads.
//!
//! [the `examples` directory]: https://codeberg.org/bal-e/takeaway/src/branch/main/examples
//!
//! ## Prioritization
//!
//! By default, `takeaway` will execute tasks in any order.  This is perfectly
//! fine if every task is equal.  Most of the time, however, some tasks take
//! longer to execute than others.  Some tasks might lead to many new sub-tasks
//! being enqueued.  In either case, finding and executing these tasks before
//! others can improve the overall runtime of your program.
//!
//! `takeaway` is capable of ordering tasks by a user-defined priority metric,
//! so that (on a best-effort basis) higher-priority tasks are executed before
//! lower-priority ones.  Don't _assume_ that tasks will be executed in order
//! of descending priority, but if you have especially uneven tasks in your
//! system, task prioritization will probably yield a performance improvement.
//!
//! To make use of this, pick a suitable priority type in the implementation of
//! [`Task`].  This is usually a simple non-zero integer type like
//! [`NonZeroU32`], but you can implement [`TaskPriority`] for a custom type.
//! Tasks with greater priority values will be executed first.
//!
//! [`NonZeroU32`]: core::num::NonZeroU32
//!
//! ```no_run
//! # use core::num::NonZeroU32;
//! #
//! // A task type involving prioritization.
//! struct MyTask {
//!     /// The priority of this task.
//!     priority: NonZeroU32,
//! }
//!
//! impl takeaway::Task for MyTask {
//!     type Priority = NonZeroU32;
//!
//!     fn priority(&self) -> Self::Priority {
//!         self.priority
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! That's all.  `takeaway` will now sort enqueued tasks by priority and steal
//! higher-priority tasks from other threads.
//!
//! # Crate Details
//!
//! `takeaway` is somewhat top-heavy; its complexity and implementation effort
//! comes from its own codebase rather than from its dependencies.  It tries to
//! be pretty minimal, and adds up to a few thousand lines of code in total; it
//! won't burden your compilation times or crate dependency graph.
//!
//! `takeaway` may be `no_std` compatible, but it relies on non-portable OS
//! functionality.  It can only be used on Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, or macOS.
//!
//! ## Feature Flags
//!
//! `takeaway` has the following feature flags:
//!
//! - `std` (default): Depends on the standard library in order to add useful
//!   trait implementations, particularly relating to thread wakers.  Use this
//!   if you're writing `std`-dependent code.
//!
//! - `crossbeam-utils`: Enables a dependency on the `crossbeam-utils` crate
//!   instead of using a vendored copy of the relevant code.  Use this if you
//!   already have `crossbeam-utils` in your dependency graph.
//!
//! ## Dependencies
//!
//! `takeaway` depends on the following crates.  [The Cargo manifest] documents
//! why these crates are necessary, alternative solutions to those crates, and
//! how these crates are maintained.
//!
//! [The Cargo manifest]: https://codeberg.org/bal-e/takeaway/src/branch/main/Cargo.toml
//!
//! - [`atomic_wait`] provides a simple, portable, and efficient way to block a
//!   thread while waiting for an atomic variable to change.  This is necessary
//!   because `takeaway` can block the thread while loading tasks in some very
//!   rare circumstances.
//!
//! - Task priorities are shared between worker threads atomically.  [`atomig`]
//!   provides generics over atomic types, so that user-selected task priority
//!   types can be operated on atomically.
//!
//! - `crossbeam_utils` is used for a few concurrency-related utility types.  By
//!   default, it is vendored in (i.e. the relevant source code has been copied
//!   into `takeaway` and the crate is not depended on).
//!
//! # Implementation
//!
//! Internally, a [`Worker`] operates on _batches_ of tasks.  It will maintain a
//! single batch at any time, consisting of the highest-priority tasks it has,
//! and will gradually drain it as the user requests tasks.  When the batch is
//! sufficiently depleted, it will be refreshed.  This is a fairly expensive
//! process, which is why a larger batch size amortizes the runtime overhead of
//! using `takeaway`.
//!
//! Workers divide their tasks into three lists: the _local queue_, the _public
//! queue_, and the _postponed queue_.  The current batch of tasks are split
//! (evenly) between the local and public queues, while the remaining tasks are
//! left in the postponed queue.  The public queue is exposed to all other
//! workers, for them to steal at any time.  The batch is considered to be
//! depleted once the maximum number of tasks have been read from it, or when
//! the public queue is stolen.
//!
//! Care is taken to distribute high-priority tasks among workers efficiently.
//! During a refresh, the current batch is sorted by priority and every other
//! task within it is moved to the local queue.  This way, the local and public
//! queues have approximately the same distribution of tasks by priority.  In
//! the worst case, where a single worker has all the highest-priority tasks,
//! the tasks will be propagated in a binary tree fashion; a worker will steal
//! half the high-priority tasks, both the thief and the victim will refresh
//! their batches and publish new public queues, and the process will repeat.
//!
//! When refreshing a batch, the following steps are taken:
//!
//! - The worker's tasks are coalesced together into a single list, from the
//!   local, public (if not stolen), and the postponed queues.
//!
//! - If some other worker has published a public queue containing tasks of a
//!   higher priority than the local set, the public queue is stolen and its
//!   tasks are merged into the local list.
//!
//! - The tasks are sorted by priority, and the highest-priority tasks form the
//!   new batch.  The tasks are then divided into the postponed, local, and
//!   public queues.
//!
//! - If the public queue contains at least one task, information about it will
//!   be published in the global [`Queue`] state, so that other workers can see
//!   and steal it.  If some workers are sleeping due to a lack of tasks, one of
//!   them is woken up so it can try stealing the public queue.
//!
//! - If no tasks were available at all, the worker is put to sleep, and will
//!   mark itself as such in the global state so it can be woken by others.  It
//!   could also be woken up when tasks are enqueued locally or globally.
