/// Waits on multiple concurrent branches, returning when the **first** branch
/// completes, cancelling the remaining branches.
///
/// The `select!` macro must be used inside of async functions, closures, and
/// blocks.
///
/// The `select!` macro accepts one or more branches with the following pattern:
///
/// ```text
/// <pattern> = <async expression> (, if <precondition>)? => <handler>,
/// ```
///
/// Additionally, the `select!` macro may include a single, optional `else`
/// branch, which evaluates if none of the other branches match their patterns:
///
/// ```text
/// else => <expression>
/// ```
///
/// The macro aggregates all `<async expression>` expressions and runs them
/// concurrently on the **current** task. Once the **first** expression
/// completes with a value that matches its `<pattern>`, the `select!` macro
/// returns the result of evaluating the completed branch's `<handler>`
/// expression.
///
/// Additionally, each branch may include an optional `if` precondition. If the
/// precondition returns `false`, then the branch is disabled. The provided
/// `<async expression>` is still evaluated but the resulting future is never
/// polled. This capability is useful when using `select!` within a loop.
///
/// The complete lifecycle of a `select!` expression is as follows:
///
/// 1. Evaluate all provided `<precondition>` expressions. If the precondition
/// returns `false`, disable the branch for the remainder of the current call
/// to `select!`. Re-entering `select!` due to a loop clears the "disabled"
/// state.
/// 2. Aggregate the `<async expression>`s from each branch, including the
/// disabled ones. If the branch is disabled, `<async expression>` is still
/// evaluated, but the resulting future is not polled.
/// 3. Concurrently await on the results for all remaining `<async expression>`s.
/// 4. Once an `<async expression>` returns a value, attempt to apply the value
/// to the provided `<pattern>`, if the pattern matches, evaluate `<handler>`
/// and return. If the pattern **does not** match, disable the current branch
/// and for the remainder of the current call to `select!`. Continue from step 3.
/// 5. If **all** branches are disabled, evaluate the `else` expression. If no
/// else branch is provided, panic.
///
/// # Runtime characteristics
///
/// By running all async expressions on the current task, the expressions are
/// able to run **concurrently** but not in **parallel**. This means all
/// expressions are run on the same thread and if one branch blocks the thread,
/// all other expressions will be unable to continue. If parallelism is
/// required, spawn each async expression using [`tokio::spawn`] and pass the
/// join handle to `select!`.
///
/// [`tokio::spawn`]: crate::spawn
///
/// # Fairness
///
/// By default, `select!` randomly picks a branch to check first. This provides
/// some level of fairness when calling `select!` in a loop with branches that
/// are always ready.
///
/// This behavior can be overridden by adding `biased;` to the beginning of the
/// macro usage. See the examples for details. This will cause `select` to poll
/// the futures in the order they appear from top to bottom. There are a few
/// reasons you may want this:
///
/// - The random number generation of `tokio::select!` has a non-zero CPU cost
/// - Your futures may interact in a way where known polling order is significant
///
/// But there is an important caveat to this mode. It becomes your responsibility
/// to ensure that the polling order of your futures is fair. If for example you
/// are selecting between a stream and a shutdown future, and the stream has a
/// huge volume of messages and zero or nearly zero time between them, you should
/// place the shutdown future earlier in the `select!` list to ensure that it is
/// always polled, and will not be ignored due to the stream being constantly
/// ready.
///
/// # Panics
///
/// The `select!` macro panics if all branches are disabled **and** there is no
/// provided `else` branch. A branch is disabled when the provided `if`
/// precondition returns `false` **or** when the pattern does not match the
/// result of `<async expression>`.
///
/// # Cancellation safety
///
/// When using `select!` in a loop to receive messages from multiple sources,
/// you should make sure that the receive call is cancellation safe to avoid
/// losing messages. This section goes through various common methods and
/// describes whether they are cancel safe. The lists in this section are not
/// exhaustive.
///
/// The following methods are cancellation safe:
///
/// * [`tokio::sync::mpsc::Receiver::recv`](crate::sync::mpsc::Receiver::recv)
/// * [`tokio::sync::mpsc::UnboundedReceiver::recv`](crate::sync::mpsc::UnboundedReceiver::recv)
/// * [`tokio::sync::broadcast::Receiver::recv`](crate::sync::broadcast::Receiver::recv)
/// * [`tokio::sync::watch::Receiver::changed`](crate::sync::watch::Receiver::changed)
/// * [`tokio::net::TcpListener::accept`](crate::net::TcpListener::accept)
/// * [`tokio::net::UnixListener::accept`](crate::net::UnixListener::accept)
/// * [`tokio::signal::unix::Signal::recv`](crate::signal::unix::Signal::recv)
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncReadExt::read`](crate::io::AsyncReadExt::read) on any `AsyncRead`
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncReadExt::read_buf`](crate::io::AsyncReadExt::read_buf) on any `AsyncRead`
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncWriteExt::write`](crate::io::AsyncWriteExt::write) on any `AsyncWrite`
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncWriteExt::write_buf`](crate::io::AsyncWriteExt::write_buf) on any `AsyncWrite`
/// * [`tokio_stream::StreamExt::next`](https://docs.rs/tokio-stream/0.1/tokio_stream/trait.StreamExt.html#method.next) on any `Stream`
/// * [`futures::stream::StreamExt::next`](https://docs.rs/futures/0.3/futures/stream/trait.StreamExt.html#method.next) on any `Stream`
///
/// The following methods are not cancellation safe and can lead to loss of data:
///
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncReadExt::read_exact`](crate::io::AsyncReadExt::read_exact)
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncReadExt::read_to_end`](crate::io::AsyncReadExt::read_to_end)
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncReadExt::read_to_string`](crate::io::AsyncReadExt::read_to_string)
/// * [`tokio::io::AsyncWriteExt::write_all`](crate::io::AsyncWriteExt::write_all)
///
/// The following methods are not cancellation safe because they use a queue for
/// fairness and cancellation makes you lose your place in the queue:
///
/// * [`tokio::sync::Mutex::lock`](crate::sync::Mutex::lock)
/// * [`tokio::sync::RwLock::read`](crate::sync::RwLock::read)
/// * [`tokio::sync::RwLock::write`](crate::sync::RwLock::write)
/// * [`tokio::sync::Semaphore::acquire`](crate::sync::Semaphore::acquire)
/// * [`tokio::sync::Notify::notified`](crate::sync::Notify::notified)
///
/// To determine whether your own methods are cancellation safe, look for the
/// location of uses of `.await`. This is because when an asynchronous method is
/// cancelled, that always happens at an `.await`. If your function behaves
/// correctly even if it is restarted while waiting at an `.await`, then it is
/// cancellation safe.
///
/// Cancellation safety can be defined in the following way: If you have a
/// future that has not yet completed, then it must be a no-op to drop that
/// future and recreate it. This definition is motivated by the situation where
/// a `select!` is used in a loop. Without this guarantee, you would lose your
/// progress when another branch completes and you restart the `select!` by
/// going around the loop.
///
/// Be aware that cancelling something that is not cancellation safe is not
/// necessarily wrong. For example, if you are cancelling a task because the
/// application is shutting down, then you probably don't care that partially
/// read data is lost.

///
/// ## Avoid racy `if` preconditions
///
/// Given that `if` preconditions are used to disable `select!` branches, some
/// caution must be used to avoid missing values.
///
/// For example, here is **incorrect** usage of `sleep` with `if`. The objective
/// is to repeatedly run an asynchronous task for up to 50 milliseconds.
/// However, there is a potential for the `sleep` completion to be missed.
///
/// ```no_run,should_panic
/// use tokio::time::{self, Duration};
///
/// async fn some_async_work() {
/// // do work
/// }
///
/// #[tokio::main]
/// async fn main() {
/// let sleep = time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(50));
/// tokio::pin!(sleep);
///
/// while !sleep.is_elapsed() {
/// tokio::select! {
/// _ = &mut sleep, if !sleep.is_elapsed() => {
/// println!("operation timed out");
/// }
/// _ = some_async_work() => {
/// println!("operation completed");
/// }
/// }
/// }
///
/// panic!("This example shows how not to do it!");
/// }
/// ```
///
/// In the above example, `sleep.is_elapsed()` may return `true` even if
/// `sleep.poll()` never returned `Ready`. This opens up a potential race
/// condition where `sleep` expires between the `while !sleep.is_elapsed()`
/// check and the call to `select!` resulting in the `some_async_work()` call to
/// run uninterrupted despite the sleep having elapsed.
///
/// One way to write the above example without the race would be:
///
/// ```
/// use tokio::time::{self, Duration};
///
/// async fn some_async_work() {
/// # time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(10)).await;
/// // do work
/// }
///
/// #[tokio::main]
/// async fn main() {
/// let sleep = time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(50));
/// tokio::pin!(sleep);
///
/// loop {
/// tokio::select! {
/// _ = &mut sleep => {
/// println!("operation timed out");
/// break;
/// }
/// _ = some_async_work() => {
/// println!("operation completed");
/// }
/// }
/// }
/// }

/// ## Avoid racy `if` preconditions
///
/// Given that `if` preconditions are used to disable `select!` branches, some
/// caution must be used to avoid missing values.
///
/// For example, here is **incorrect** usage of `sleep` with `if`. The objective
/// is to repeatedly run an asynchronous task for up to 50 milliseconds.
/// However, there is a potential for the `sleep` completion to be missed.
///
/// ```no_run,should_panic
/// use tokio::time::{self, Duration};
///
/// async fn some_async_work() {
/// // do work
/// }
///
/// #[tokio::main]
/// async fn main() {
/// let sleep = time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(50));
/// tokio::pin!(sleep);
///
/// while !sleep.is_elapsed() {
/// tokio::select! {
/// _ = &mut sleep, if !sleep.is_elapsed() => {
/// println!("operation timed out");
/// }
/// _ = some_async_work() => {
/// println!("operation completed");
/// }
/// }
/// }
///
/// panic!("This example shows how not to do it!");
/// }
/// ```
///
/// In the above example, `sleep.is_elapsed()` may return `true` even if
/// `sleep.poll()` never returned `Ready`. This opens up a potential race
/// condition where `sleep` expires between the `while !sleep.is_elapsed()`
/// check and the call to `select!` resulting in the `some_async_work()` call to
/// run uninterrupted despite the sleep having elapsed.
///
/// One way to write the above example without the race would be:
///
/// ```
/// use tokio::time::{self, Duration};
///
/// async fn some_async_work() {
/// # time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(10)).await;
/// // do work
/// }
///
/// #[tokio::main]
/// async fn main() {
/// let sleep = time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(50));
/// tokio::pin!(sleep);
///
/// loop {
/// tokio::select! {
/// _ = &mut sleep => {
/// println!("operation timed out");
/// break;
/// }
/// _ = some_async_work() => {
/// println!("operation completed");
/// }
/// }
/// }
/// }
/// ```
