lock-free block linking when a block overflows. +- **Consumers**: CAS on per-block read index; may spin briefly waiting for a producer to commit a slot. +- **Graveyard**: fully drained blocks are retired to a graveyard list rather than deleted immediately, so producers still referencing an old block via `tail` cannot use freed memory. Blocks are freed when the queue is destroyed. + +Cross-producer ordering is not guaranteed; per-producer FIFO is preserved. + +### MPSCQueue (MPSC) + +Used for single-consumer pools (`MainThread`, concurrency-1 custom pools). + +The producer side matches `TaskQueue`. +The consumer side is simpler: a plain (non-atomic) read index, no CAS on dequeue, and immediate block retirement to the graveyard when advancing. + +`try_dequeue` must only be called from the designated consumer thread. +Force shutdown from another thread delegates queue draining to that consumer via `discard_queues_requested`. + +### Shared block helpers + +`queue/detail/block_ops.hpp` provides `link_next_block` and `retire_block` shared by both queues. + +### Lock-free vs wait-free + +The queues are **lock-free** at the algorithm level: no mutexes, and the system makes progress under contention. +They are **not wait-free end-to-end**: + +- Block allocation uses `operator new`. +- Overflow paths use CAS loops on list pointers. +- Consumers may spin waiting for a producer's `committed` flag. + +The hot-path slot claim via `fetch_add` is wait-free within a non-full block. + +## Group and sync semantics + +### Single-group fast path + +Most reactions belong to at most one group (including `Sync`). +For these, `Group::try_submit()`: + +1.
