// Cache collects pods' information and provides node-level aggregated information.
// It's intended for generic scheduler to do efficient lookup.
// Cache's operations are pod centric. It incrementally updates itself based on pod events.
// Pod events are sent via network. We don't have guaranteed delivery of all events:
// We use Reflector to list and watch from remote.
// Reflector might be slow and do a relist, which would lead to missing events.
//
// State Machine of a pod's events in scheduler's cache:
//
//                                                +-------+
//                                                |       |
//                                                |       | Update
//           Assume                Add            +       |
// Initial +--------> Assumed +------------+---> Added <--+
//                       +                 |       +
//                       |                 |       |
//                       |             Add |       | Remove
//                       |                 |       |
//                       |                 +       |
//                       +-------------> Expired   +----> Deleted
//                          Expire
//
// Note that an assumed pod can expire, because if we haven't received Add event notifying us
// for a while, there might be some problems and we shouldn't keep the pod in cache anymore.
//
// Note that "Initial", "Expired", and "Deleted" pods do not actually exist in cache.
// Based on existing use cases, we are making the following assumptions:
// - No pod would be assumed twice
// - If a pod wasn't added, it wouldn't be removed or updated.
// - Both "Expired" and "Deleted" are valid end states. In case of some problems, e.g. network issue,
//   a pod might have changed its state (e.g. added and deleted) without delivering notification to the cache.

	// If binding return true, the pod's information is aggregated into designated node.
	// Note that both binding and assuming are done as one atomic operation from cache's view.
	// No other events like Add would happen in between binding and assuming.
	// We are passing the binding function and let implementation take care of concurrency control details.
	// The implementation also decides the policy to expire pod before being confirmed (receiving Add event).
	// After expiration, its information would be subtracted.
