worker_goals.rs

1//! This module contain "goals" which are larger than work packets, and describes what workers are
2//! working towards on a high level.
3//!
4//! A "goal" is represented by a `WorkerGoal`.  All workers work towards a single goal at a time.
5//! The current goal influences the behavior of GC workers, especially the last parked worker.
6//! For example,
7//!
8//! -   When in the progress of GC, the last parker will try to open buckets or announce the GC
9//!     has finished.
10//! -   When stopping for fork, every waken worker should save its thread state (giving in the
11//!     `GCWorker` struct) and exit.
12//!
13//! The struct `WorkerGoals` keeps the set of goals requested by mutators, but GC workers will only
14//! respond to one request at a time, and will favor higher-priority goals.
