1//! RTEMS-side background-execution infrastructure (CA sans-io refactor,
2//! increment W3a — the seam backend).
3//!
4//! # Why this exists (decision A2)
5//!
6//! The CA server is being made runnable on RTEMS (armv7-rtems-eabihf) with
7//! **one** async engine. On a hosted target, async *tails* — PACT device
8//! completion, FLNK/scanOnce chains, SDLY/ODLY/watchdog timers, WRITE_NOTIFY
9//! completion — run as tokio tasks via [`crate::runtime::task::spawn`]. RTEMS
10//! has no tokio runtime (`tokio::spawn`/`tokio::time` need one), so those tails
11//! need a runtime-free home. This module is that home: three C-parity
12//! facilities built from **plain `std` threads + `Mutex`/`Condvar`**, carrying
13//! no tokio dependency.
14//!
15//! | Facility | C source | Rust |
16//! |----------|----------|------|
17//! | [`callback_executor`] | `callback.c` `callbackQueue[]`/`callbackTask` | priority-banded worker pool |
18//! | [`delayed_timer`] | `callback.c` `callbackRequestDelayed`/`timerQueue` | one deadline-ordered timer thread |
19//! | [`scan_once`] | `dbScan.c` `onceQ`/`scanOnce`/`onceTask` | bounded ring + one worker |
20//!
21//! # The seam handle
22//!
23//! [`BackgroundExecutor`] owns the three facilities and their threads;
24//! [`BackgroundExecutor::handle`] hands out a cheap, clonable
25//! [`BackgroundHandle`] that the future seam wiring routes synchronous-tail
26//! hand-offs through. The hosted (tokio) build keeps calling
27//! [`crate::runtime::task::spawn`] — this module is **only** the RTEMS route,
28//! and this increment adds the infrastructure without switching any call site
29//! over to it (that is a later increment).

33// `pub`, not `pub(crate)`: the record system's periodic-scan threads
34// (`epics_base_rs::server::scan`) and the database write gate run under the
35// same poison-recovery and panic-isolation rules as the facilities here, and
36// they call [`facility::recover`] / [`facility::run_isolated`] to get them.
37// Those call sites were inside this crate before the runtime layer was split
38// out; the split moved the callers across a crate boundary, and one shared
39// helper reached through a wider door is what keeps the rule single-sourced
40// rather than restated in the crate above.
