// std.io — the `Io` capability's default impl + the async ergonomic layer. // // `Io` itself (the protocol) lives in std/core.sx next to `Allocator`, so // the compiler-coupled `Context` field + the `__sx_default_context` // materializers can reference it. This file carries the parts that are // pure library sx: the stateless blocking impl (`CBlockingIo`, the mirror // of `CAllocator`) + the generic free-fns layered over the protocol // (`async` / `await` / `cancel` + the `Future($R)` type). // // Consumers reach these through std.sx (`Future` / `async` / `await` / // `cancel` / `CBlockingIo` re-exports), never by importing this file // directly. // // BLOCKING SEMANTICS (B1.2): the M:1 default has no scheduler and no // suspension. `async(worker, ..args)` runs the worker to COMPLETION // inline, so the returned `Future` is born `.ready` and `await` yields // immediately. `spawn_raw`/`suspend_raw`/`ready`/`poll`/`arm_timer` are // trivial no-ops/0 — they exist for the fiber scheduler [B1.3+]. // `now_ms` returns a real monotonic clock. Fully deterministic/testable. // // Worker form (B1.2): a `Closure(..$args) -> $R` whose params are // annotated at the call site (a lambda `(a: i64) -> i64 => ...`). // Named-fn workers need a `::` callable-parameter language feature that // does not exist yet and are DEFERRED. #import "modules/std/core.sx"; #import "modules/std/atomic.sx"; time :: #import "modules/std/time.sx"; // --- IoErr: the error channel async rides (cancellation = model (a)) --- // // A canceled future raises `.Canceled` out of `await`; a failed task // raises `.Failed`.
