+/**
+ * QIOTask:
+ *
+ * The QIOTask object provides a simple mechanism for reporting
+ * success / failure of long running background operations.
+ *
+ * A object on which the operation is to be performed could have
+ * a public API which accepts a task callback:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Task function signature</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * void myobject_operation(QMyObject *obj,
+ * QIOTaskFunc *func,
+ * gpointer opaque,
+ * GDestroyNotify notify);
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * The 'func' parameter is the callback to be invoked, and 'opaque'
+ * is data to pass to it. The optional 'notify' function is used
+ * to free 'opaque' when no longer needed.
+ *
+ * When the operation completes, the 'func' callback will be
+ * invoked, allowing the calling code to determine the result
+ * of the operation. An example QIOTaskFunc implementation may
+ * look like
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Task callback implementation</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * static void myobject_operation_notify(QIOTask *task,
+ * gpointer opaque)
+ * {
+ * Error *err = NULL;
+ * if (qio_task_propagate_error(task, &err)) {
+ * ...deal with the failure...
+ * error_free(err);
+ * } else {
+ * QMyObject *src = QMY_OBJECT(qio_task_get_source(task));
+ * ...deal with the completion...
+ * }
+ * }
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * Now, lets say the implementation of the method using the
+ * task wants to set a timer to run once a second checking
+ * for completion of some activity. It would do something
+ * like
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Task function implementation</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * void myobject_operation(QMyObject *obj,
+ * QIOTaskFunc *func,
+ * gpointer opaque,
+ * GDestroyNotify notify)
+ * {
+ * QIOTask *task;
+ *
+ * task = qio_task_new(OBJECT(obj), func, opaque, notify);
+ *
+ * g_timeout_add_full(G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT,
+ * 1000,
+ * myobject_operation_timer,
+ * task,
+ * NULL);
+ * }
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * It could equally have setup a watch on a file descriptor or
+ * created a background thread, or something else entirely.
+ * Notice that the source object is passed to the task, and
+ * QIOTask will hold a reference on that. This ensure that
+ * the QMyObject instance cannot be garbage collected while
+ * the async task is still in progress.
+ *
+ * In this case, myobject_operation_timer will fire after
+ * 3 secs and do
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Task timer function</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * gboolean myobject_operation_timer(gpointer opaque)
+ * {
+ * QIOTask *task = QIO_TASK(opaque);
+ * Error *err = NULL;
+ *
+ * ...check something important...
+ * if (err) {
+ * qio_task_set_error(task, err);
+ * qio_task_complete(task);
+ * return FALSE;
+ * } else if (...work is completed ...) {
+ * qio_task_complete(task);
+ * return FALSE;
+ * }
+ * ...carry on polling ...
+ * return TRUE;
+ * }
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * The 'qio_task_complete' call in this method will trigger
+ * the callback func 'myobject_operation_notify' shown
+ * earlier to deal with the results.
+ *
+ * Once this function returns false, object_unref will be called
+ * automatically on the task causing it to be released and the
+ * ref on QMyObject dropped too.
+ *
+ * The QIOTask module can also be used to perform operations
+ * in a background thread context, while still reporting the
+ * results in the main event thread. This allows code which
+ * cannot easily be rewritten to be asychronous (such as DNS
+ * lookups) to be easily run non-blocking. Reporting the
+ * results in the main thread context means that the caller
+ * typically does not need to be concerned about thread
+ * safety wrt the QEMU global mutex.
+ *
+ * For example, the socket_listen() method will block the caller
+ * while DNS lookups take place if given a name, instead of IP
+ * address. The C library often do not provide a practical async
+ * DNS API, so the to get non-blocking DNS lookups in a portable
+ * manner requires use of a thread. So achieve a non-blocking
+ * socket listen using QIOTask would require:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * static void myobject_listen_worker(QIOTask *task,
+ * gpointer opaque)
+ * {
+ * QMyObject obj = QMY_OBJECT(qio_task_get_source(task));
+ * SocketAddress *addr = opaque;
+ * Error *err = NULL;
+ *
+ * obj->fd = socket_listen(addr, &err);
+ *
+ qio_task_set_error(task, err);
+ * }
+ *
+ * void myobject_listen_async(QMyObject *obj,
+ * SocketAddress *addr,
+ * QIOTaskFunc *func,
+ * gpointer opaque,
+ * GDestroyNotify notify)
+ * {
+ * QIOTask *task;
+ * SocketAddress *addrCopy;
+ *
+ * addrCopy = QAPI_CLONE(SocketAddress, addr);
+ * task = qio_task_new(OBJECT(obj), func, opaque, notify);
+ *
+ * qio_task_run_in_thread(task, myobject_listen_worker,
+ * addrCopy,
+ * qapi_free_SocketAddress);
+ * }
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * NB, The 'func' callback passed into myobject_listen_async
+ * will be invoked from the main event thread, despite the
+ * actual operation being performed in a different thread.
