32  * AioWait:
33  *
34  * An object that facilitates synchronous waiting on a condition. A single
35  * global AioWait object (global_aio_wait) is used internally.
36  *
37  * The main loop can wait on an operation running in an IOThread as follows:
38  *
39  *   AioContext *ctx = ...;
40  *   MyWork work = { .done = false };
41  *   schedule_my_work_in_iothread(ctx, &work);
42  *   AIO_WAIT_WHILE(ctx, !work.done);
43  *
44  * The IOThread must call aio_wait_kick() to notify the main loop when
45  * work.done changes:
46  *
47  *   static void do_work(...)
48  *   {
49  *       ...
50  *       work.done = true;
51  *       aio_wait_kick();
52  *   }

76  * go via the main loop instead.
