/*
* wakeup_fd abstracts the concept of a file descriptor for the purpose of
* waking up a thread in select()/poll()/epoll_wait()/etc.
* The poll() family of system calls provide a way for a thread to block until
* there is activity on one (or more) of a set of file descriptors. An
* application may wish to wake up this thread to do non file related work. The
* typical way to do this is to add a pipe to the set of file descriptors, then
* write to the pipe to wake up the thread in poll().
*
* Linux has a lighter weight eventfd specifically designed for this purpose.
* wakeup_fd abstracts the difference between the two.
*
* Setup:
* 1. Before calling anything, call global_init() at least once.
* 1. Call grpc_wakeup_fd_init() to set up a wakeup_fd.
* 2. Add the result of GRPC_WAKEUP_FD_FD to the set of monitored file
* descriptors for the poll() style API you are using. Monitor the file
* descriptor for readability.
* 3. To tear down, call grpc_wakeup_fd_destroy(). This closes the underlying
* file descriptor.
*
* Usage:
* 1. To wake up a polling thread, call grpc_wakeup_fd_wakeup() on a wakeup_fd
* it is monitoring.
* 2. If the polling thread was awakened by a wakeup_fd event, call
* grpc_wakeup_fd_consume_wakeup() on it.
