Motivation:
In many situations, for example continuous profiling with sampling profilers, it's important to distinguish between on- and off-CPU work. That's most easily done if there are clear function names/prefixes to grep for that are common places to just wait (off-CPU) and do no real work. In SwiftNIO those are chiefly three places:
EventLoops
waiting for workThe NIOThreadPool
threads waiting for workEventLoopFuture.wait()
This patch makes sure that each of those will have a function with prefix
_blockingWaitFor
in the function name which is easily greppable.Modifications:
_blockingWaitFor...
that just wait for...
.Result:
SwiftNIO makes operational excellence easier and your SRE team more happy.
