--
-- An @'MVar' t@ is mutable location that is either empty or contains a
-- value of type @t@.  It has two fundamental operations: 'putMVar'
-- which fills an 'MVar' if it is empty and blocks otherwise, and
-- 'takeMVar' which empties an 'MVar' if it is full and blocks
-- otherwise.  They can be used in multiple different ways:
--
--   1. As synchronized mutable variables,
--
--   2. As channels, with 'takeMVar' and 'putMVar' as receive and send, and
--
--   3. As a binary semaphore @'MVar' ()@, with 'takeMVar' and 'putMVar' as
--      wait and signal.
--
-- They were introduced in the paper
-- <http://research.microsoft.com/~simonpj/papers/concurrent-haskell.ps.gz "Concurrent Haskell">
-- by Simon Peyton Jones, Andrew Gordon and Sigbjorn Finne, though
-- some details of their implementation have since then changed (in
-- particular, a put on a full 'MVar' used to error, but now merely
-- blocks.)
--
-- === Applicability
--
-- 'MVar's offer more flexibility than 'IORef's, but less flexibility
-- than 'STM'.  They are appropriate for building synchronization
-- primitives and performing simple interthread communication; however
-- they are very simple and susceptible to race conditions, deadlocks or
-- uncaught exceptions.  Do not use them if you need perform larger
-- atomic operations such as reading from multiple variables: use 'STM'
-- instead.
--
-- In particular, the "bigger" functions in this module ('readMVar',
-- 'swapMVar', 'withMVar', 'modifyMVar_' and 'modifyMVar') are simply
-- the composition of a 'takeMVar' followed by a 'putMVar' with
-- exception safety.
-- These only have atomicity guarantees if all other threads
-- perform a 'takeMVar' before a 'putMVar' as well;  otherwise, they may
-- block.
--
-- === Fairness
--
-- No thread can be blocked indefinitely on an 'MVar' unless another
-- thread holds that 'MVar' indefinitely.  One usual implementation of
-- this fairness guarantee is that threads blocked on an 'MVar' are
-- served in a first-in-first-out fashion, but this is not guaranteed
-- in the semantics.
--
-- === Gotchas
--
-- Like many other Haskell data structures, 'MVar's are lazy.  This
-- means that if you place an expensive unevaluated thunk inside an
-- 'MVar', it will be evaluated by the thread that consumes it, not the
-- thread that produced it.  Be sure to 'evaluate' values to be placed
-- in an 'MVar' to the appropriate normal form, or utilize a strict
-- MVar provided by the strict-concurrency package.
--
-- === Ordering
--
-- 'MVar' operations are always observed to take place in the order
-- they are written in the program, regardless of the memory model of
-- the underlying machine.  This is in contrast to 'IORef' operations
-- which may appear out-of-order to another thread in some cases.
--
-- === Example
--
-- Consider the following concurrent data structure, a skip channel.
-- This is a channel for an intermittent source of high bandwidth
-- information (for example, mouse movement events.)  Writing to the
-- channel never blocks, and reading from the channel only returns the
-- most recent value, or blocks if there are no new values.  Multiple
-- readers are supported with a @dupSkipChan@ operation.
--
-- A skip channel is a pair of 'MVar's. The first 'MVar' contains the
-- current value, and a list of semaphores that need to be notified
-- when it changes. The second 'MVar' is a semaphore for this particular
-- reader: it is full if there is a value in the channel that this
-- reader has not read yet, and empty otherwise.
--
-- @
--     data SkipChan a = SkipChan (MVar (a, [MVar ()])) (MVar ())
--
--     newSkipChan :: IO (SkipChan a)
--     newSkipChan = do
--         sem <- newEmptyMVar
--         main <- newMVar (undefined, [sem])
--         return (SkipChan main sem)
--
--     putSkipChan :: SkipChan a -> a -> IO ()
--     putSkipChan (SkipChan main _) v = do
--         (_, sems) <- takeMVar main
--         putMVar main (v, [])
--         mapM_ (\sem -> putMVar sem ()) sems
--
--     getSkipChan :: SkipChan a -> IO a
--     getSkipChan (SkipChan main sem) = do
--         takeMVar sem
--         (v, sems) <- takeMVar main
--         putMVar main (v, sem:sems)
--         return v
--
--     dupSkipChan :: SkipChan a -> IO (SkipChan a)
--     dupSkipChan (SkipChan main _) = do
--         sem <- newEmptyMVar
--         (v, sems) <- takeMVar main
--         putMVar main (v, sem:sems)
--         return (SkipChan main sem)
-- @
--
-- This example was adapted from the original Concurrent Haskell paper.
-- For more examples of 'MVar's being used to build higher-level
-- synchronization primitives, see 'Control.Concurrent.Chan' and
-- 'Control.Concurrent.QSem'.
