This is a first step towards unifying the concepts of "entering a runtime" and setting Handle::current.

Previously, these two operations were performed separately at each call site (runtime block_on, ...). This is error-prone and also requires multiple accesses to the thread-local variable. Additionally, "entering the runtime" conflated the concept of entering a blocking region. For example, calling mpsc::Receiver::recv_blocking performed the "enter the runtime" step. This was done to prevent blocking a runtime, as the operation will panic when called from an existing runtime.

To untangle these concepts, the patch splits each logical operation into a separate function. In total, there are three "enter" operations:

  • set_current_handle
  • enter_runtime
  • enter_blocking_region

There are some behavior changes with each function, but they should not translate to public behavior changes. The most significant is enter_blocking_region does not change the value of the thread-local variable, which means the function can be re-entered. Since enter_blocking_region is an internal-only function and we do not re-enter, this has no public-facing impact.

Because enter_runtime takes a &Handle to combine the set_current_handle operation with entering a runtime, the patch exposes an annoyance with the current scheduler::Handle struct layout. A new instance of scheduler::Handle must be constructed at each call to enter_runtime. We can explore cleaning this up later.

This patch does not combine the "entered runtime" thread-local variable with the "context" thread-local variable. To keep the patch smaller, this has been punted to a follow-up change.

This is a frist step towards unifying the concepts of "entering a
runtime" and setting `Handle::current`.

Previously, these two operation were performed separately at each call
site (runtime block_on, ...). This is error prone and also requires
multiple accesses to the thread-local variable. Additionally, "entering
the runtime" conflated the concept of entering a blocking region. For
example, calling `mpsc::Receiver::recv_blocking` performed the "enter
the runtime" step. This was done to prevent blocking a runtime as the
operation will panic when called from an existing runtime.

To untangle these concepts, the patch splits out each logical operation
into its own call. In total, there are three "enter" operations:

* `set_current_handle`
* `enter_runtime`
* `enter_blocking_region`

There are some behavior changes with each of these functions, but they
should not translate to public behavior changes. The most signifcant is
`enter_blocking_region` does not change the value of the thread-local
variable, which means the function can be re-entered. Since
`enter_blocking_region` is an internal-only function and we do not
actually re-enter, this has no public facing impact.

Because `enter_runtime` takes a `&Handle` in order to combine the
`set_current_handle` operation with entering a runtime, the patch
exposes an annoyance with the current `scheduler::Handle` struct layout.
A new instance of `scheduler::Handle` must be constructed at each call
to `enter_runtime`. We can explore cleaning this up later.

This patch also does not combine the "entered runtime" thread-local
variable with the "context" thread-local variable. To keep the patch
smaller, this has been punted to a follow up change.

I think the failure is due to a recent rust release. I will have to investigate later.
