Make HotSwap safe to concurrent access#3480
Conversation

This API is a bit unsafey since it directly returns the R but I think we'll just have to live with that.

Maybe a little bit annoying UX that this is an Option[R], alternatively we could raise an error. But the user can decide to do that too.

Bikeshed the name. access a la HotswapRef ?

Woops, I didn't think this through :) we need to make sure that multiple readers don't block each other. h/t https://github.com/janstenpickle/hotswap-ref |

Stole this from here:

It seems like a good addition to std on its own merits.
trait Lock[F[_]] {
def shared: Resource[F, Unit]
def exclusive: Resource[F, Unit]

Lock would probably be a good addition, but the tricky bit is that it isn't reentrant, so we have to be really careful.

Fixes #2050. Closes #3473.
The current resource in
Hotswapis now guarded by a mutex, which must be acquired to swap or clear it. A new methodgetalso provides safe access to the current resource, by acquiring the mutex while it is in use.
