/// A "lock" around data `D`, which employs a *helping* strategy.

/// Used to ensure that concurrent `unpark` invocations lead to (1) `poll` being
/// invoked on only a single thread at a time (2) `poll` being invoked at least
/// once after each `unpark` (unless the future has completed).

// `UnparkMutex<D>` functions in many ways like a `Mutex<D>`, except that on
// acquisition failure, the current lock holder performs the desired work --
// re-polling.
//
// As such, these impls mirror those for `Mutex<D>`. In particular, a reference
// to `UnparkMutex` can be used to gain `&mut` access to the inner data, which
// must therefore be `Send`.

// There are four possible task states, listed below with their possible
// transitions:

// The task is blocked, waiting on an event
const WAITING: usize = 0; // --> POLLING

// The task is actively being polled by a thread; arrival of additional events
// of interest should move it to the REPOLL state
const POLLING: usize = 1; // --> WAITING, REPOLL, or COMPLETE

// The task is actively being polled, but will need to be re-polled upon
// completion to ensure that all events were observed.
const REPOLL: usize = 2; // --> POLLING

// The task has finished executing (either successfully or with an error/panic)
const COMPLETE: usize = 3; // No transitions out
