//! Process-wide CUDA primary-context management for the `wasi-cuda` launch
//! path (roadmap fix #6).
//!
//! ## The thread-bound-context bug this closes
//!
//! `cust` 0.3 uses CUDA's *primary context* model: [`cust::quick_init`] runs
//! `cuInit` + `cuDevicePrimaryCtxRetain` and makes the retained context
//! current via `cuCtxSetCurrent` — but `cuCtxSetCurrent` binds the context to
//! the **calling thread only**. The CUDA driver keeps the "current context" in
//! thread-local state.
//!
//! The launch path is multi-threaded:
//!
//! * `load_ptx` / `launch` run on whatever thread the wasmtime async fiber is
//!   polled on (a tokio worker), which may never have touched CUDA;
//! * `launch` then moves `stream.synchronize()` into
//!   [`tokio::task::spawn_blocking`], which runs on a *different* thread from
//!   the blocking pool;
//! * libtest runs each `#[test]` / `#[tokio::test]` on its own thread.
//!
//! Before this module, only the first thread that happened to call
//! `quick_init` (typically a `tensor-wasm-mem` allocation, or the e2e test's
//! one-shot init) had a current context. Every other thread that reached a
//! `cuLaunchKernel` / `cuStreamSynchronize` saw `CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT`.
//! That surfaced as spurious `InvalidContext` launch failures under libtest
//! and — more importantly — in the production `spawn_blocking` synchronize
//! path.
//!
//! ## The fix
//!
//! Retain the device's primary context **once** per process (cached in a
//! `OnceLock`) and re-bind it to the **calling thread** on every entry into a
//! CUDA operation via [`ensure_current_context`]. Because primary contexts are
//! reference-counted and unique per device, retaining the same device's
//! primary context from several call sites (here, plus
//! `tensor-wasm-mem`'s `unified::ensure_cuda_init`) all resolve to the *same*
//! underlying `CUcontext`; `cuCtxSetCurrent` on any handle binds that one
//! context. So binding is always consistent regardless of which subsystem
//! initialised CUDA first.
//!
//! `cuCtxSetCurrent` is idempotent and cheap on a thread already bound to the
//! same context (the driver compares pointer identity — a single TLS write),
//! so callers invoke [`ensure_current_context`] unconditionally at the top of
//! every CUDA entry point, including inside the `spawn_blocking` closure.
//!
//! This mirrors the `mem M4` `ensure_context_bound` discipline the cudarc
//! backend already applies (`crates/tensor-wasm-mem/src/cudarc_backend.rs`);
//! the cust launch path needed the same treatment.

/// after another subsystem has already initialised CUDA fails. In particular
/// `tensor-wasm-mem`'s `unified-memory` (cust) path runs its own init when the
/// `TensorWasmMemoryCreator` allocates a guest linear memory, so a `quick_init`
/// here would race it and one of the two would cache an `Err` forever — which
/// surfaced as spurious `CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT` at `Module::from_ptx` /
/// `cuLaunchKernel` once both code paths ran in the same process.
///
/// Instead we retain the device's PRIMARY context directly via
/// `cuDevicePrimaryCtxRetain`. The primary context is reference-counted and
/// unique per device, so every retainer in the process (here, plus
/// tensor-wasm-mem, plus cust's own `quick_init` if anything calls it) resolves
/// to the SAME `CUcontext`. Binding it current on a thread is then just a

    //
    // Failure mode this guards against (the real bug that motivated this code):
    //   1. Another subsystem (or, in tests, a `cust::Context` created by
    //      `quick_init`) holds a reference to device 0's primary context.
    //   2. That `cust::Context` is dropped, which calls
    //      `cuDevicePrimaryCtxRelease`, driving the primary-context refcount to
    //      zero. The driver then TEARS DOWN the primary context.
    //   3. Any handle we cached from an earlier `cuDevicePrimaryCtxRetain` is now
    //      STALE — it names a context that no longer exists.
    //   4. Binding that stale handle still "succeeds" at `cuCtxSetCurrent` (it is
    //      just a thread-local pointer write; the driver does not revalidate it),
    //      so the breakage is silent here and only surfaces later as
    //      `CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT` from the next `cuModuleLoadData` /
    //      `cuLaunchKernel`.
    //
    // Calling `cuDevicePrimaryCtxRetain` fresh on every entry defeats this: it
    // always returns the LIVE per-device singleton (recreating it if step 2 tore
    // it down) and bumps its refcount, so the handle we then bind is guaranteed
    // valid. `cuDevicePrimaryCtxRetain` is reference-counted and idempotent, so
    // re-retaining the already-live context is cheap (a refcount increment) and
    // simply keeps the singleton alive. This was the cause of the launch test
    // passing in isolation but failing `InvalidContext` in the full-file run;
    // the kernel_args_e2e launch proof (8/8 on RTX 2060) depends on this
    // behaviour.
    //
    // The cost is bounded, monotonic growth of the primary context's refcount
    // (one extra +1 per CUDA entry that is never released). Audit finding L-5
    // (LOW) flags this and proposes retaining once instead; we REJECT that
    // change. Retain-once reintroduces the stale-handle / `INVALID_CONTEXT` bug
    // above. The refcount growth is an accepted, documented trade-off: it is a
    // bounded book-keeping leak with no functional consequence (a primary
    // context is a process-lifetime singleton we intend to keep alive anyway),
    // whereas the retain-once "fix" is a correctness regression.
    //
