22 /**
23  * Coroutines are a mechanism for stack switching and can be used for
24  * cooperative userspace threading.  These functions provide a simple but
25  * useful flavor of coroutines that is suitable for writing sequential code,
26  * rather than callbacks, for operations that need to give up control while
27  * waiting for events to complete.
28  *
29  * These functions are re-entrant and may be used outside the global mutex.
30  *
31  * Functions that execute in coroutine context cannot be called
32  * directly from normal functions.  Use @coroutine_fn to mark such
33  * functions.  For example:
34  *
35  *   static void coroutine_fn foo(void) {
36  *       ....
37  *   }
38  *
39  * In the future it would be nice to have the compiler or a static
40  * checker catch misuse of such functions.  This annotation might make
41  * it possible and in the meantime it serves as documentation.
