A future represents an asynchronous computation.
|
||||
|
||||
A future is a value that may not have finished computing yet. This kind of
|
||||
"asynchronous value" makes it possible for a thread to continue doing useful
|
||||
work while it waits for the value to become available.
|
||||
|
||||
# The `poll` method
|
||||
|
||||
The core method of future, `poll`, *attempts* to resolve the future into a
|
||||
final value. This method does not block if the value is not ready. Instead,
|
||||
the current task is scheduled to be woken up when it's possible to make
|
||||
further progress by `poll`ing again. The `context` passed to the `poll`
|
||||
method can provide a [`Waker`], which is a handle for waking up the current
|
||||
task.
|
||||
|
||||
When using a future, you generally won't call `poll` directly, but instead
|
||||
`.await` the value.
|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||
pub trait Future {
|
||||
#[doc = r#"
|
||||

|
||||
"#]
|
||||
type Output;
|
||||
|
||||
#[doc = r#"
|
||||
Attempt to resolve the future to a final value, registering
|
||||
the current task for wakeup if the value is not yet available.
|
||||
|
||||
# Return value
|
||||
|
||||
This function returns:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`Poll::Pending`] if the future is not ready yet
|
||||
- [`Poll::Ready(val)`] with the result `val` of this future if it
|
||||
finished successfully.
|
||||
|
||||
Once a future has finished, clients should not `poll` it again.
|
||||
|
||||
When a future is not ready yet, `poll` returns `Poll::Pending` and
|
||||
stores a clone of the [`Waker`] copied from the current [`Context`].
|
||||
This [`Waker`] is then woken once the future can make progress.
|
||||
For example, a future waiting for a socket to become
|
||||
readable would call `.clone()` on the [`Waker`] and store it.
|
||||
When a signal arrives elsewhere indicating that the socket is readable,
|
||||
[`Waker::wake`] is called and the socket future's task is awoken.
|
||||
Once a task has been woken up, it should attempt to `poll` the future
|
||||
again, which may or may not produce a final value.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that on multiple calls to `poll`, only the [`Waker`] from the
|
||||
[`Context`] passed to the most recent call should be scheduled to
|
||||
receive a wakeup.
|
||||
|
||||
# Runtime characteristics
|
||||
|
||||
Futures alone are *inert*; they must be *actively* `poll`ed to make
|
||||
progress, meaning that each time the current task is woken up, it should
|
||||
actively re-`poll` pending futures that it still has an interest in.
|
||||
|
||||
The `poll` function is not called repeatedly in a tight loop -- instead,
|
||||
it should only be called when the future indicates that it is ready to
|
||||
make progress (by calling `wake()`). If you're familiar with the
|
||||
`poll(2)` or `select(2)` syscalls on Unix it's worth noting that futures
|
||||
typically do *not* suffer the same problems of "all wakeups must poll
|
||||
all events"; they are more like `epoll(4)`.
|
||||
|
||||
An implementation of `poll` should strive to return quickly, and should
|
||||
not block. Returning quickly prevents unnecessarily clogging up
|
||||
threads or event loops. If it is known ahead of time that a call to
|
||||
`poll` may end up taking awhile, the work should be offloaded to a
|
||||
thread pool (or something similar) to ensure that `poll` can return
|
||||
quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
# Panics
|
||||
|
||||
Once a future has completed (returned `Ready` from `poll`), calling its
|
||||
`poll` method again may panic, block forever, or cause other kinds of
|
||||
problems; the `Future` trait places no requirements on the effects of
|
||||
such a call. However, as the `poll` method is not marked `unsafe`,
|
||||
Rust's usual rules apply: calls must never cause undefined behavior
|
||||
(memory corruption, incorrect use of `unsafe` functions, or the like),
|
||||
regardless of the future's state.
