The CI failure is because your PR is written on top of an old master from May. |

OK I updated this and also added a link to the result from #4146 - so marking draft until that merges. |

I'm working on some code which heavily uses `spawn_blocking` to run synchronous code, and it took me a while to find and understand the relevant APIs and patterns here. First, basically no real world case will spawn a closure that takes no parameters, so change the first example to pass an input value, mutate it, and receive the result. Let's link to the channel blocking APIs, and provide a small example of that too. This also mentions `SyncIoBridge` now.

OK rebased 🏄 and now links to the SyncIOBridge from #4146 Specifically related to this subthread - I would say that the existing bridging toplevel doc is actually mostly about the inverse case of creating a tokio runtime for a portion of a largely synchronous codebase, whereas the goal of this PR is to help explain how to use some synchronous code inside a largely asynchronous codebase. I created tokio-rs/website#621 to link back to this one. |
