24	Threads but don't run in parallel.	31	to threads but don't run in parallel at the same time even on SMP
		32	machines. The specific flavor of coroutine used in this module also
		33	guarantees you that it will not switch between coroutines unless
		34	necessary, at easily-identified points in your program, so locking and
		35	parallel access are rarely an issue, making coroutine programming much
		36	safer than threads programming.
25		37
26	This module is still experimental, see the BUGS section below.	38	(Perl, however, does not natively support real threads but instead does a
		39	very slow and memory-intensive emulation of processes using threads. This
		40	is a performance win on Windows machines, and a loss everywhere else).
27		41

31	variables.	45	variables (see L<Coro::State> for more configuration).
32
33	WARNING: When using this module, make sure that, at program end, no
34	coroutines are still running OR just call exit before falling off the
35	end. The reason for this is that some coroutine of yours might have called
36	into a C function, and falling off the end of main:: results in returning
37	to that C function instead if to the main C interpreter.
38
39	WARNING: Unless you really know what you are doing, do NOT do context
40	switches inside callbacks from the XS level. The reason for this is
41	similar to the reason above: A callback calls a perl function, this
42	perl function does a context switch, some other callback is called, the
43	original function returns from it - to what? To the wrong XS function,
44	with totally different return values. Unfortunately, this includes
45	callbacks done by perl itself (tie'd variables!).
46
47	The only workaround for this is to do coroutines on C level.

		220
		221	Similar to C<async>, but uses a coroutine pool, so you should not call
		222	terminate or join (although you are allowed to), and you get a coroutine
		223	that might have executed other code already (which can be good or bad :).
		224
		225	Also, the block is executed in an C<eval> context and a warning will be
		226	issued in case of an exception instead of terminating the program, as
		227	C<async> does. As the coroutine is being reused, stuff like C<on_destroy>
		228	will not work in the expected way, unless you call terminate or cancel,
		229	which somehow defeats the purpose of pooling.
		230
		231	The priority will be reset to C<0> after each job, tracing will be
		232	disabled, the description will be reset and the default output filehandle
		233	gets restored, so you can change alkl these. Otherwise the coroutine will
		234	be re-used "as-is": most notably if you change other per-coroutine global
		235	stuff such as C<$/> you need to revert that change, which is most simply
		236	done by using local as in C< local $/ >.
		237
		238	The pool size is limited to 8 idle coroutines (this can be adjusted by
		239	changing $Coro::POOL_SIZE), and there can be as many non-idle coros as
		240	required.
		241
		242	If you are concerned about pooled coroutines growing a lot because a
		243	single C<async_pool> used a lot of stackspace you can e.g. C<async_pool
		244	{ terminate }> once per second or so to slowly replenish the pool. In
		245	addition to that, when the stacks used by a handler grows larger than 16kb

		445
		446	Sets (or gets, if the argument is missing) the priority of the
		447	coroutine. Higher priority coroutines get run before lower priority
		448	coroutines. Priorities are small signed integers (currently -4 .. +3),
		449	that you can refer to using PRIO_xxx constants (use the import tag :prio
		450	to get then):
		451
		452	PRIO_MAX > PRIO_HIGH > PRIO_NORMAL > PRIO_LOW > PRIO_IDLE > PRIO_MIN
		453	3 > 1 > 0 > -1 > -3 > -4
		454
		455	# set priority to HIGH
		456	current->prio(PRIO_HIGH);
		457
		458	The idle coroutine ($Coro::idle) always has a lower priority than any
		459	existing coroutine.
		460
		461	Changing the priority of the current coroutine will take effect immediately,
		462	but changing the priority of coroutines in the ready queue (but not
		463	running) will only take effect after the next schedule (of that
		464	coroutine). This is a bug that will be fixed in some future version.
		465
		466	=item $newprio = $coroutine->nice ($change)
		467
		468	Similar to C<prio>, but subtract the given value from the priority (i.e.
		469	higher values mean lower priority, just as in unix).
		470
		471	=item $olddesc = $coroutine->desc ($newdesc)
		472
		473	Sets (or gets in case the argument is missing) the description for this
		474	coroutine. This is just a free-form string you can associate with a coroutine.
		475
		476	This method simply sets the C<< $coroutine->{desc} >> member to the given string. You
		477	can modify this member directly if you wish.
		478
		479	=item $coroutine->throw ([$scalar])
		480
		481	If C<$throw> is specified and defined, it will be thrown as an exception
		482	inside the coroutine at the next convinient point in time (usually after
		483	it gains control at the next schedule/transfer/cede). Otherwise clears the
		484	exception object.
		485
		486	The exception object will be thrown "as is" with the specified scalar in
		487	C<$@>, i.e. if it is a string, no line number or newline will be appended
		488	(unlike with C<die>).
		489
		490	This can be used as a softer means than C<cancel> to ask a coroutine to
		491	end itself, although there is no guarentee that the exception will lead to
		492	termination, and if the exception isn't caught it might well end the whole
		493	program.

		498	my $old = $_[0]{desc};

		507	=over 4
		508
		509	=item Coro::nready
		510
		511	Returns the number of coroutines that are currently in the ready state,
		512	i.e. that can be switched to. The value C<0> means that the only runnable
		513	coroutine is the currently running one, so C<cede> would have no effect,
		514	and C<schedule> would cause a deadlock unless there is an idle handler
		515	that wakes up some coroutines.
		516
		517	=item my $guard = Coro::guard { ... }
		518
		519	This creates and returns a guard object. Nothing happens until the object
		520	gets destroyed, in which case the codeblock given as argument will be
		521	executed. This is useful to free locks or other resources in case of a
		522	runtime error or when the coroutine gets canceled, as in both cases the
		523	guard block will be executed. The guard object supports only one method,
		524	C<< ->cancel >>, which will keep the codeblock from being executed.
		525
		526	Example: set some flag and clear it again when the coroutine gets canceled
		527	or the function returns:
		528
		529	sub do_something {
		530	my $guard = Coro::guard { $busy = 0 };
		531	$busy = 1;
		532
		533	# do something that requires $busy to be true
		534	}
		535
		536	=cut
		537
		538	sub guard(&) {
		539	bless \(my $cb = $_[0]), "Coro::guard"
		540	}
		541
		542	sub Coro::guard::cancel {
		543	${$_[0]} = sub { };
		544	}
		545
		546	sub Coro::guard::DESTROY {
		547	${$_[0]}->();
		548	}
		549
		550
		551	=item unblock_sub { ... }
		552
		553	This utility function takes a BLOCK or code reference and "unblocks" it,
		554	returning the new coderef. This means that the new coderef will return
		555	immediately without blocking, returning nothing, while the original code
		556	ref will be called (with parameters) from within its own coroutine.
		557
		558	The reason this function exists is that many event libraries (such as the
		559	venerable L<Event\|Event> module) are not coroutine-safe (a weaker form
		560	of thread-safety). This means you must not block within event callbacks,
		561	otherwise you might suffer from crashes or worse.
		562
		563	This function allows your callbacks to block by executing them in another
		564	coroutine where it is safe to block. One example where blocking is handy
		565	is when you use the L<Coro::AIO\|Coro::AIO> functions to save results to
		566	disk.
		567
		568	In short: simply use C<unblock_sub { ... }> instead of C<sub { ... }> when
		569	creating event callbacks that want to block.
