"""Convert a blocking operation into an async operation using a thread.
These two lines are equivalent::
sync_fn(*args)
await trio.to_thread.run_sync(sync_fn, *args)
except that if ``sync_fn`` takes a long time, then the first line will
block the Trio loop while it runs, while the second line allows other Trio
tasks to continue working while ``sync_fn`` runs. This is accomplished by
pushing the call to ``sync_fn(*args)`` off into a worker thread.
From inside the worker thread, you can get back into Trio using the
functions in `trio.from_thread`.
Args:
sync_fn: An arbitrary synchronous callable.
*args: Positional arguments to pass to sync_fn. If you need keyword
arguments, use :func:`functools.partial`.
cancellable (bool): Whether to allow cancellation of this operation. See
discussion below.
limiter (None, or CapacityLimiter-like object):
An object used to limit the number of simultaneous threads. Most
commonly this will be a `~trio.CapacityLimiter`, but it could be
anything providing compatible
:meth:`~trio.CapacityLimiter.acquire_on_behalf_of` and
:meth:`~trio.CapacityLimiter.release_on_behalf_of` methods. This
function will call ``acquire_on_behalf_of`` before starting the
thread, and ``release_on_behalf_of`` after the thread has finished.
If None (the default), uses the default `~trio.CapacityLimiter`, as
returned by :func:`current_default_thread_limiter`.
**Cancellation handling**: Cancellation is a tricky issue here, because
neither Python nor the operating systems it runs on provide any general
mechanism for cancelling an arbitrary synchronous function running in a
thread. This function will always check for cancellation on entry, before
starting the thread. But once the thread is running, there are two ways it
can handle being cancelled:
* If ``cancellable=False``, the function ignores the cancellation and
keeps going, just like if we had called ``sync_fn`` synchronously. This
is the default behavior.
* If ``cancellable=True``, then this function immediately raises
`~trio.Cancelled`. In this case **the thread keeps running in
background** we just abandon it to do whatever it's going to do, and
silently discard any return value or errors that it raises. Only use
this if you know that the operation is safe and side-effect free. (For
example: :func:`trio.socket.getaddrinfo` uses a thread with
``cancellable=True``, because it doesn't really affect anything if a
stray hostname lookup keeps running in the background.)
The ``limiter`` is only released after the thread has *actually*
finished which in the case of cancellation may be some time after this
function has returned. If :func:`trio.run` finishes before the thread
does, then the limiter release method will never be called at all.
.. warning::
You should not use this function to call long-running CPU-bound
functions! In addition to the usual GIL-related reasons why using
threads for CPU-bound work is not very effective in Python, there is an
additional problem: on CPython, `CPU-bound threads tend to "starve out"
IO-bound threads <https://bugs.python.org/issue7946>`__, so using
threads for CPU-bound work is likely to adversely affect the main
thread running Trio. If you need to do this, you're better off using a
worker process, or perhaps PyPy (which still has a GIL, but may do a
better job of fairly allocating CPU time between threads).
Returns:
Whatever ``sync_fn(*args)`` returns.
Raises:
Exception: Whatever ``sync_fn(*args)`` raises.
