//! This library provides type-safe and fully-featured `Mutex` and `RwLock`
//! types which wrap a simple raw mutex or rwlock type. This has several
//! benefits: not only does it eliminate a large portion of the work in
//! implementing custom lock types, it also allows users to write code which is
//! generic with regards to different lock implementations.
//!
//! Basic usage of this crate is very straightforward:
//!
//! 1. Create a raw lock type. This should only contain the lock state, not any
//!    data protected by the lock.
//! 2. Implement the `RawMutex` trait for your custom lock type.
//! 3. Export your mutex as a type alias for `lock_api::Mutex`, and
//!    your mutex guard as a type alias for `lock_api::MutexGuard`.
//!    See the [example](#example) below for details.
//!
//! This process is similar for RwLocks, except that two guards need to be
//! exported instead of one. (Or 3 guards if your type supports upgradable read
//! locks, see [extension traits](#extension-traits) below for details)
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! use lock_api::{RawMutex, Mutex, GuardSend};
//! use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicBool, Ordering};
//!
//! // 1. Define our raw lock type
//! pub struct RawSpinlock(AtomicBool);
//!
//! // 2. Implement RawMutex for this type
//! unsafe impl RawMutex for RawSpinlock {
//!     const INIT: RawSpinlock = RawSpinlock(AtomicBool::new(false));
//!
//!     // A spinlock guard can be sent to another thread and unlocked there
//!     type GuardMarker = GuardSend;
//!
//!     fn lock(&self) {
//!         // Note: This isn't the best way of implementing a spinlock, but it
//!         // suffices for the sake of this example.
//!         while !self.try_lock() {}
//!     }
//!
//!     fn try_lock(&self) -> bool {
//!         self.0
//!             .compare_exchange(false, true, Ordering::Acquire, Ordering::Relaxed)
//!             .is_ok()
//!     }
//!
//!     unsafe fn unlock(&self) {
//!         self.0.store(false, Ordering::Release);
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! // 3. Export the wrappers. This are the types that your users will actually use.
//! pub type Spinlock<T> = lock_api::Mutex<RawSpinlock, T>;
//! pub type SpinlockGuard<'a, T> = lock_api::MutexGuard<'a, RawSpinlock, T>;
//! ```
//!
//! # Extension traits
//!
//! In addition to basic locking & unlocking functionality, you have the option
//! of exposing additional functionality in your lock types by implementing
//! additional traits for it. Examples of extension features include:
//!
//! - Fair unlocking (`RawMutexFair`, `RawRwLockFair`)
//! - Lock timeouts (`RawMutexTimed`, `RawRwLockTimed`)
//! - Downgradable write locks (`RawRwLockDowngradable`)
//! - Recursive read locks (`RawRwLockRecursive`)
//! - Upgradable read locks (`RawRwLockUpgrade`)
//!
//! The `Mutex` and `RwLock` wrappers will automatically expose this additional
//! functionality if the raw lock type implements these extension traits.
//!
//! # Cargo features
//!
//! This crate supports two cargo features:
//!
//! - `owning_ref`: Allows your lock types to be used with the `owning_ref` crate.
//! - `nightly`: Enables nightly-only features. At the moment the only such
//!   feature is `const fn` constructors for lock types.
