## This is a whitelisting of types that can be used with ThreadResult below
## These types need to be thread safe with refc. That means no
## GC types.
ThreadResult*[T] = object
## Encapsulates both the results from a thread but also the cross
## thread signaling mechanism. This makes it easier to keep them
## together.
signal*: ThreadSignalPtr
results*: Result[T, CatchableErrorBuffer]
TResult*[T] = SharedPtr[ThreadResult[T]] ##\
## SharedPtr that allocates a shared buffer and keeps the
## memory allocated until all references to it are gone.
##
## Since ThreadResult is a plain object, and if its lifetime is
## tied to that of an async proc or the thread-backend request
## it could be freed before the other thread is finished.
##
## For example, `myFuture.cancel()` can end an async proc early.
## If the ThreadResult was stored in the async's memory then it'd
## be free'ed along with the rest of the async env. This would
## result in likely memory corruption (use-after-free).
