Struct local_waker::LocalWaker
source · pub struct LocalWaker { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
A synchronization primitive for task wakeup.
Sometimes the task interested in a given event will change over time. A LocalWaker
can
coordinate concurrent notifications with the consumer, potentially “updating” the underlying
task to wake up. This is useful in scenarios where a computation completes in another task and
wants to notify the consumer, but the consumer is in the process of being migrated to a new
logical task.
Consumers should call register
before checking the result of a computation and producers
should call wake
after producing the computation (this differs from the usual thread::park
pattern). It is also permitted for wake
to be called before register
. This results in
a no-op.
A single LocalWaker
may be reused for any number of calls to register
or wake
.
