15 // A WaitableEvent on POSIX is implemented as a wait-list. Currently we don't
16 // support cross-process events (where one process can signal an event which
17 // others are waiting on). Because of this, we can avoid having one thread per
18 // listener in several cases.
20 // The WaitableEvent maintains a list of waiters, protected by a lock. Each
21 // waiter is either an async wait, in which case we have a Task and the
22 // MessageLoop to run it on, or a blocking wait, in which case we have the
23 // condition variable to signal.
25 // Waiting involves grabbing the lock and adding oneself to the wait list. Async
26 // waits can be canceled, which means grabbing the lock and removing oneself
29 // Waiting on multiple events is handled by adding a single, synchronous wait to
30 // the wait-list of many events. An event passes a pointer to itself when
31 // firing a waiter and so we can store that pointer to find out which event
33 // -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
