// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// This header file defines a `Notification` abstraction, which allows threads
// to receive notification of a single occurrence of a single event.
//
// The `Notification` object maintains a private boolean "notified" state that
// transitions to `true` at most once. The `Notification` class provides the
// following primary member functions:
//   * `HasBeenNotified() `to query its state
//   * `WaitForNotification*()` to have threads wait until the "notified" state
//      is `true`.
//   * `Notify()` to set the notification's "notified" state to `true` and
//     notify all waiting threads that the event has occurred.
//     This method may only be called once.
//
// Note that while `Notify()` may only be called once, it is perfectly valid to
// call any of the `WaitForNotification*()` methods multiple times, from
// multiple threads -- even after the notification's "notified" state has been
// set -- in which case those methods will immediately return.
//
// Note that the lifetime of a `Notification` requires careful consideration;
// it might not be safe to destroy a notification after calling `Notify()` since
// it is still legal for other threads to call `WaitForNotification*()` methods
// on the notification. However, observers responding to a "notified" state of
// `true` can safely delete the notification without interfering with the call
// to `Notify()` in the other thread.
//
// Memory ordering: For any threads X and Y, if X calls `Notify()`, then any
// action taken by X before it calls `Notify()` is visible to thread Y after:
//  * Y returns from `WaitForNotification()`, or
//  * Y receives a `true` return value from either `HasBeenNotified()` or
//    `WaitForNotificationWithTimeout()`.
