129This variable stores either a Coro object or a callback. 129This variable stores a Coro object that is put into the ready queue when
130there are no other ready threads (without invoking any ready hooks).

133deadlock detected" and exits, because the program has no other way to
134continue.
135
136If it is a coro object, then this object will be readied (without
137invoking any ready hooks, however) when the scheduler finds no other ready
138coros to run.

143 138
144Note that the callback I<must not>, under any circumstances, block
145the current coro. Normally, this is achieved by having an "idle
146coro" that calls the event loop and then blocks again, and then
147readying that coro in the idle handler, or by simply placing the idle
148coro in this variable.

153Please note that if your callback recursively invokes perl (e.g. for event
154handlers), then it must be prepared to be called recursively itself.
