//! Tools for concurrent programming.
//!
//! ## Atomics
//!
//! * [`AtomicCell`], a thread-safe mutable memory location.
//! * [`AtomicConsume`], for reading from primitive atomic types with "consume" ordering.
//!
//! ## Data structures
//!
//! * [`deque`], work-stealing deques for building task schedulers.
//! * [`ArrayQueue`], a bounded MPMC queue that allocates a fixed-capacity buffer on construction.
//! * [`SegQueue`], an unbounded MPMC queue that allocates small buffers, segments, on demand.
//!
//! ## Memory management
//!
//! * [`epoch`], an epoch-based garbage collector.
//!
//! ## Thread synchronization
//!
//! * [`channel`], multi-producer multi-consumer channels for message passing.
//! * [`Parker`], a thread parking primitive.
//! * [`ShardedLock`], a sharded reader-writer lock with fast concurrent reads.
//! * [`WaitGroup`], for synchronizing the beginning or end of some computation.
//!
//! ## Utilities
//!
//! * [`Backoff`], for exponential backoff in spin loops.
//! * [`CachePadded`], for padding and aligning a value to the length of a cache line.
//! * [`scope`], for spawning threads that borrow local variables from the stack.
