    {- $conc_intro

    The concurrency extension for Haskell is described in the paper
    /Concurrent Haskell/
    <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/papers/concurrent-haskell.ps.gz>.

    Concurrency is \"lightweight\", which means that both thread creation
    and context switching overheads are extremely low.  Scheduling of
    Haskell threads is done internally in the Haskell runtime system, and
    doesn't make use of any operating system-supplied thread packages.

    However, if you want to interact with a foreign library that expects your
    program to use the operating system-supplied thread package, you can do so
    by using 'forkOS' instead of 'forkIO'.

    Haskell threads can communicate via 'MVar's, a kind of synchronised
    mutable variable (see "Control.Concurrent.MVar").  Several common
    concurrency abstractions can be built from 'MVar's, and these are
    provided by the "Control.Concurrent" library.
    In GHC, threads may also communicate via exceptions.
    -}

    {- $conc_scheduling

        Scheduling may be either pre-emptive or co-operative,
        depending on the implementation of Concurrent Haskell (see below
        for information related to specific compilers).  In a co-operative
        system, context switches only occur when you use one of the
        primitives defined in this module.  This means that programs such
        as:

    >   main = forkIO (write 'a') >> write 'b'
    >     where write c = putChar c >> write c

        will print either @aaaaaaaaaaaaaa...@ or @bbbbbbbbbbbb...@,
        instead of some random interleaving of @a@s and @b@s.  In
        practice, cooperative multitasking is sufficient for writing
        simple graphical user interfaces.

    {- $blocking
    Different Haskell implementations have different characteristics with
    regard to which operations block /all/ threads.

    Using GHC without the @-threaded@ option, all foreign calls will block
    all other Haskell threads in the system, although I\/O operations will
    not.  With the @-threaded@ option, only foreign calls with the @unsafe@
    attribute will block all other threads.

    Using Hugs, all I\/O operations and foreign calls will block all other
    Haskell threads.

    -- Bound Threads

    {- $boundthreads
       #boundthreads#

    Support for multiple operating system threads and bound threads as described
    below is currently only available in the GHC runtime system if you use the
    /-threaded/ option when linking.

    Other Haskell systems do not currently support multiple operating system threads.

    A bound thread is a haskell thread that is /bound/ to an operating system
    thread. While the bound thread is still scheduled by the Haskell run-time
    system, the operating system thread takes care of all the foreign calls made
    by the bound thread.

    To a foreign library, the bound thread will look exactly like an ordinary
    operating system thread created using OS functions like @pthread_create@
    or @CreateThread@.

    Bound threads can be created using the 'forkOS' function below. All foreign
    exported functions are run in a bound thread (bound to the OS thread that
    called the function). Also, the @main@ action of every Haskell program is
    run in a bound thread.

    Why do we need this? Because if a foreign library is called from a thread
    created using 'forkIO', it won't have access to any /thread-local state/ -
    state variables that have specific values for each OS thread
    (see POSIX's @pthread_key_create@ or Win32's @TlsAlloc@). Therefore, some
    libraries (OpenGL, for example) will not work from a thread created using
    'forkIO'. They work fine in threads created using 'forkOS' or when called
    from @main@ or from a @foreign export@.

    In terms of performance, 'forkOS' (aka bound) threads are much more
    expensive than 'forkIO' (aka unbound) threads, because a 'forkOS'
    thread is tied to a particular OS thread, whereas a 'forkIO' thread
    can be run by any OS thread.  Context-switching between a 'forkOS'
    thread and a 'forkIO' thread is many times more expensive than between
    two 'forkIO' threads.

    Note in particular that the main program thread (the thread running
    @Main.main@) is always a bound thread, so for good concurrency
    performance you should ensure that the main thread is not doing
    repeated communication with other threads in the system.  Typically
    this means forking subthreads to do the work using 'forkIO', and
    waiting for the results in the main thread.

    -}

    -- | 'True' if bound threads are supported.
    -- If @rtsSupportsBoundThreads@ is 'False', 'isCurrentThreadBound'
    -- will always return 'False' and both 'forkOS' and 'runInBoundThread' will

    {- |
    Like 'forkIO', this sparks off a new thread to run the 'IO'
    computation passed as the first argument, and returns the 'ThreadId'
    of the newly created thread.

    However, 'forkOS' creates a /bound/ thread, which is necessary if you
    need to call foreign (non-Haskell) libraries that make use of
    thread-local state, such as OpenGL (see "Control.Concurrent#boundthreads").

    Using 'forkOS' instead of 'forkIO' makes no difference at all to the
    scheduling behaviour of the Haskell runtime system.  It is a common
    misconception that you need to use 'forkOS' instead of 'forkIO' to
    avoid blocking all the Haskell threads when making a foreign call;
    this isn't the case.  To allow foreign calls to be made without
    blocking all the Haskell threads (with GHC), it is only necessary to
    use the @-threaded@ option when linking your program, and to make sure
    the foreign import is not marked @unsafe@.

    {- $osthreads

          #osthreads# In GHC, threads created by 'forkIO' are lightweight threads, and
          are managed entirely by the GHC runtime.  Typically Haskell
          threads are an order of magnitude or two more efficient (in
          terms of both time and space) than operating system threads.

          The downside of having lightweight threads is that only one can
          run at a time, so if one thread blocks in a foreign call, for
          example, the other threads cannot continue.  The GHC runtime
          works around this by making use of full OS threads where
          necessary.  When the program is built with the @-threaded@
          option (to link against the multithreaded version of the
          runtime), a thread making a @safe@ foreign call will not block
          the other threads in the system; another OS thread will take
          over running Haskell threads until the original call returns.
          The runtime maintains a pool of these /worker/ threads so that
          multiple Haskell threads can be involved in external calls
          simultaneously.

          The "System.IO" library manages multiplexing in its own way.  On
          Windows systems it uses @safe@ foreign calls to ensure that
          threads doing I\/O operations don't block the whole runtime,
          whereas on Unix systems all the currently blocked I\/O requests
          are managed by a single thread (the /IO manager thread/) using
          @select@.

          The runtime will run a Haskell thread using any of the available
          worker OS threads.  If you need control over which particular OS
          thread is used to run a given Haskell thread, perhaps because
          you need to call a foreign library that uses OS-thread-local
          state, then you need bound threads (see "Control.Concurrent#boundthreads").

          If you don't use the @-threaded@ option, then the runtime does
          not make use of multiple OS threads.  Foreign calls will block
          all other running Haskell threads until the call returns.  The
          "System.IO" library still does multiplexing, so there can be multiple
          threads doing I\/O, and this is handled internally by the runtime using
          @select@.

    {- $termination

          In a standalone GHC program, only the main thread is
          required to terminate in order for the process to terminate.
          Thus all other forked threads will simply terminate at the same
          time as the main thread (the terminology for this kind of
          behaviour is \"daemonic threads\").

          If you want the program to wait for child threads to
          finish before exiting, you need to program this yourself.  A
          simple mechanism is to have each child thread write to an
          'MVar' when it completes, and have the main
          thread wait on all the 'MVar's before
          exiting:

    >   myForkIO :: IO () -> IO (MVar ())
    >   myForkIO io = do
    >     mvar <- newEmptyMVar
    >     forkIO (io `finally` putMVar mvar ())
    >     return mvar

          Note that we use 'finally' from the
          "Control.Exception" module to make sure that the
          'MVar' is written to even if the thread dies or
          is killed for some reason.

          A better method is to keep a global list of all child
          threads which we should wait for at the end of the program:

    >    children :: MVar [MVar ()]
    >    children = unsafePerformIO (newMVar [])
    >
    >    waitForChildren :: IO ()
    >    waitForChildren = do
    >      cs <- takeMVar children
    >      case cs of
    >        []   -> return ()
    >        m:ms -> do
    >           putMVar children ms
    >           takeMVar m
    >           waitForChildren
    >
    >    forkChild :: IO () -> IO ThreadId
    >    forkChild io = do
    >        mvar <- newEmptyMVar
    >        childs <- takeMVar children
    >        putMVar children (mvar:childs)
    >        forkIO (io `finally` putMVar mvar ())
    >
    >     main =
    >       later waitForChildren $
    >       ...

          The main thread principle also applies to calls to Haskell from
          outside, using @foreign export@.  When the @foreign export@ed
          function is invoked, it starts a new main thread, and it returns
          when this main thread terminates.  If the call causes new
          threads to be forked, they may remain in the system after the
          @foreign export@ed function has returned.

    {- $preemption

          GHC implements pre-emptive multitasking: the execution of
          threads are interleaved in a random fashion.  More specifically,
          a thread may be pre-empted whenever it allocates some memory,
          which unfortunately means that tight loops which do no
          allocation tend to lock out other threads (this only seems to
          happen with pathological benchmark-style code, however).

          The rescheduling timer runs on a 20ms granularity by
          default, but this may be altered using the
          @-i\<n\>@ RTS option.  After a rescheduling
          \"tick\" the running thread is pre-empted as soon as
          possible.

          One final note: the
          @aaaa@ @bbbb@ example may not
          work too well on GHC (see Scheduling, above), due
          to the locking on a 'System.IO.Handle'.  Only one thread
          may hold the lock on a 'System.IO.Handle' at any one
          time, so if a reschedule happens while a thread is holding the
          lock, the other thread won't be able to run.  The upshot is that
          the switch from @aaaa@ to
          @bbbbb@ happens infrequently.  It can be
          improved by lowering the reschedule tick period.  We also have a
          patch that causes a reschedule whenever a thread waiting on a
          lock is woken up, but haven't found it to be useful for anything
          other than this example :-)
