Crate async_lock

Async synchronization primitives.

This crate provides the following primitives:

• Barrier - enables tasks to synchronize all together at the same time.
• Mutex - a mutual exclusion lock.
• RwLock - a reader-writer lock, allowing any number of readers or a single writer.
• Semaphore - limits the number of concurrent operations.

Modules

• futures
  Named futures for use with async_lock primitives.

Structs

• RwLockUpgradableReadGuard
  A guard that releases the upgradable read lock when dropped.
• RwLockUpgradableReadGuardArc
  An owned, reference-counting guard that releases the upgradable read lock when dropped.
• RwLockWriteGuard
