//! A lock-free concurrent slab.
//!
//! Slabs provide pre-allocated storage for many instances of a single data
//! type. When a large number of values of a single type are required,
//! this can be more efficient than allocating each item individually. Since the
//! allocated items are the same size, memory fragmentation is reduced, and
//! creating and removing new items can be very cheap.
//!
//! This crate implements a lock-free concurrent slab, indexed by `usize`s.
//!
//! ## Usage
//!
//! First, add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
//!
//! ```toml
//! sharded-slab = "0.1.1"
//! ```
//!
//! This crate provides two  types, [`Slab`] and [`Pool`], which provide
//! slightly different APIs for using a sharded slab.
//!
//! [`Slab`] implements a slab for _storing_ small types, sharing them between
//! threads, and accessing them by index. New entries are allocated by
//! [inserting] data, moving it in by value. Similarly, entries may be
//! deallocated by [taking] from the slab, moving the value out. This API is
//! similar to a `Vec<Option<T>>`, but allowing lock-free concurrent insertion
//! and removal.
//!
//! In contrast, the [`Pool`] type provides an [object pool] style API for
//! _reusing storage_. Rather than constructing values and moving them into the
//! pool, as with [`Slab`], [allocating an entry][create] from the pool takes a
//! closure that's provided with a mutable reference to initialize the entry in
//! place. When entries are deallocated, they are [cleared] in place. Types
//! which own a heap allocation can be cleared by dropping any _data_ they
//! store, but retaining any previously-allocated capacity. This means that a
//! [`Pool`] may be used to reuse a set of existing heap allocations, reducing
//! allocator load.
//!
//! [inserting]: Slab::insert
//! [taking]: Slab::take
//! [create]: Pool::create
//! [cleared]: Clear
//! [object pool]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_pool_pattern
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Inserting an item into the slab, returning an index:
//! ```rust
//! # use sharded_slab::Slab;
//! let slab = Slab::new();
//!
//! let key = slab.insert("hello world").unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(slab.get(key).unwrap(), "hello world");
//! ```
//!
//! To share a slab across threads, it may be wrapped in an `Arc`:
//! ```rust
//! # use sharded_slab::Slab;
//! use std::sync::Arc;
//! let slab = Arc::new(Slab::new());
//!
//! let slab2 = slab.clone();
//! let thread2 = std::thread::spawn(move || {
//!     let key = slab2.insert("hello from thread two").unwrap();
//!     assert_eq!(slab2.get(key).unwrap(), "hello from thread two");
//!     key
//! });
//!
//! let key1 = slab.insert("hello from thread one").unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(slab.get(key1).unwrap(), "hello from thread one");
//!
//! // Wait for thread 2 to complete.
//! let key2 = thread2.join().unwrap();
//!
//! // The item inserted by thread 2 remains in the slab.
//! assert_eq!(slab.get(key2).unwrap(), "hello from thread two");
//!```
//!
//! If items in the slab must be mutated, a `Mutex` or `RwLock` may be used for
//! each item, providing granular locking of items rather than of the slab:
//!
//! ```rust
//! # use sharded_slab::Slab;
//! use std::sync::{Arc, Mutex};
//! let slab = Arc::new(Slab::new());
//!
//! let key = slab.insert(Mutex::new(String::from("hello world"))).unwrap();
//!
//! let slab2 = slab.clone();
//! let thread2 = std::thread::spawn(move || {
//!     let hello = slab2.get(key).expect("item missing");
//!     let mut hello = hello.lock().expect("mutex poisoned");
//!     *hello = String::from("hello everyone!");
//! });
//!
//! thread2.join().unwrap();
//!
//! let hello = slab.get(key).expect("item missing");
//! let mut hello = hello.lock().expect("mutex poisoned");
//! assert_eq!(hello.as_str(), "hello everyone!");
//! ```
//!
//! # Configuration
//!
//! For performance reasons, several values used by the slab are calculated as
//! constants. In order to allow users to tune the slab's parameters, we provide
//! a [`Config`] trait which defines these parameters as associated `consts`.
//! The `Slab` type is generic over a `C: Config` parameter.
//!
//! [`Config`]: trait.Config.html
//!
//! # Comparison with Similar Crates
//!
//! - [`slab`]: Carl Lerche's `slab` crate provides a slab implementation with a
//!   similar API, implemented by storing all data in a single vector.
//!
//!   Unlike `sharded_slab`, inserting and removing elements from the slab
//!   requires  mutable access. This means that if the slab is accessed
//!   concurrently by multiple threads, it is necessary for it to be protected
//!   by a `Mutex` or `RwLock`. Items may not be inserted or removed (or
//!   accessed, if a `Mutex` is used) concurrently, even when they are
//!   unrelated. In many cases, the lock can become a significant bottleneck. On
//!   the other hand, this crate allows separate indices in the slab to be
//!   accessed, inserted, and removed concurrently without requiring a global
//!   lock. Therefore, when the slab is shared across multiple threads, this
//!   crate offers significantly better performance than `slab`.
//!
//!   However, the lock free slab introduces some additional constant-factor
//!   overhead. This means that in use-cases where a slab is _not_ shared by
//!   multiple threads and locking is not required, this crate will likely offer
//!   slightly worse performance.
//!
//!   In summary: `sharded-slab` offers significantly improved performance in
//!   concurrent use-cases, while `slab` should be preferred in single-threaded
//!   use-cases.

//!
//! # Safety and Correctness
//!
//! Most implementations of lock-free data structures in Rust require some
//! amount of unsafe code, and this crate is not an exception. In order to catch
//! potential bugs in this unsafe code, we make use of [`loom`], a
//! permutation-testing tool for concurrent Rust programs. All `unsafe` blocks
//! this crate occur in accesses to `loom` `UnsafeCell`s. This means that when
//! those accesses occur in this crate's tests, `loom` will assert that they are
//! valid under the C11 memory model across multiple permutations of concurrent
//! executions of those tests.
//!
//! In order to guard against the [ABA problem][aba], this crate makes use of
//! _generational indices_. Each slot in the slab tracks a generation counter
//! which is incremented every time a value is inserted into that slot, and the
//! indices returned by [`Slab::insert`] include the generation of the slot when
//! the value was inserted, packed into the high-order bits of the index. This
//! ensures that if a value is inserted, removed,  and a new value is inserted
//! into the same slot in the slab, the key returned by the first call to
//! `insert` will not map to the new value.
//!
//! Since a fixed number of bits are set aside to use for storing the generation
//! counter, the counter will wrap  around after being incremented a number of
//! times. To avoid situations where a returned index lives long enough to see the
//! generation counter wrap around to the same value, it is good to be fairly
//! generous when configuring the allocation of index bits.

//! # Performance
//!
//! These graphs were produced by [benchmarks] of the sharded slab implementation,
//! using the [`criterion`] crate.
//!
//! The first shows the results of a benchmark where an increasing number of
//! items are inserted and then removed into a slab concurrently by five
//! threads. It compares the performance of the sharded slab implementation
//! with a `RwLock<slab::Slab>`:
//!
//! <img width="1124" alt="Screen Shot 2019-10-01 at 5 09 49 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2796466/66078398-cd6c9f80-e516-11e9-9923-0ed6292e8498.png">
//!
//! The second graph shows the results of a benchmark where an increasing
//! number of items are inserted and then removed by a _single_ thread. It
//! compares the performance of the sharded slab implementation with an
//! `RwLock<slab::Slab>` and a `mut slab::Slab`.
//!
//! <img width="925" alt="Screen Shot 2019-10-01 at 5 13 45 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2796466/66078469-f0974f00-e516-11e9-95b5-f65f0aa7e494.png">
//!
//! These benchmarks demonstrate that, while the sharded approach introduces
//! a small constant-factor overhead, it offers significantly better
//! performance across concurrent accesses.
