/* Helper to perform abortable blocking operations on a socket:
* asocket_connect()
* asocket_accept()
* asocket_read()
* asocket_write()
* These calls are similar to the regular syscalls, but can be aborted with:
* asocket_abort()
*
* Calling close() on a regular POSIX socket does not abort blocked syscalls on
* that socket in other threads.
*
* After calling asocket_abort() the socket cannot be reused.
*
* Call asocket_destory() *after* all threads have finished with the socket to
* finish closing the socket and free the asocket structure.
*
* The helper is implemented by setting the socket non-blocking to initiate
* syscalls connect(), accept(), read(), write(), then using a blocking poll()
* on both the primary socket and a local pipe. This makes the poll() abortable
* by writing a byte to the local pipe in asocket_abort().
*
* asocket_create() sets the fd to non-blocking mode. It must not be changed to
* blocking mode.
*
* Using asocket will triple the number of file descriptors required per
* socket, due to the local pipe. It may be possible to use a global pipe per
* process rather than per socket, but we have not been able to come up with a
* race-free implementation yet.
*
* All functions except asocket_init() and asocket_destroy() are thread safe.
