 *
 * This code implements "speculative I/O". The principle is to try to perform
 * expected I/O before registering the events in the poller. Each time this
 * succeeds, it saves a possibly expensive system call to set the event. It
 * generally succeeds for all reads after an accept(), and for writes after a
 * connect(). It also improves performance for streaming connections because
 * even if only one side is polled, the other one may react accordingly
 * depending on the fill level of the buffer. This behaviour is also the only
 * one compatible with event-based pollers (eg: EPOLL_ET).
 *
 * More importantly, it enables I/O operations that are backed by invisible
 * buffers. For example, SSL is able to read a whole socket buffer and not
 * deliver it to the application buffer because it's full. Unfortunately, it
 * won't be reported by a poller anymore until some new activity happens. The
 * only way to call it again thus is to perform speculative I/O as soon as
 * reading on the FD is enabled again.
 *
 * The speculative I/O uses a list of expected events and a list of updates.
 * Expected events are events that are expected to come and that we must report
 * to the application until it asks to stop or to poll. Updates are new requests
 * for changing an FD state. Updates are the only way to create new events. This
 * is important because it means that the number of speculative events cannot
 * increase between updates and will only grow one at a time while processing
 * updates. All updates must always be processed, though events might be
 * processed by small batches if required.
 *
 * There is no direct link between the FD and the updates list. There is only a
 * bit in the fdtab[] to indicate than a file descriptor is already present in
 * the updates list. Once an fd is present in the updates list, it will have to
 * be considered even if its changes are reverted in the middle or if the fd is
 * replaced.
 *
 * It is important to understand that as long as all expected events are
 * processed, they might starve the polled events, especially because polled
 * I/O starvation quickly induces more speculative I/O. One solution to this
 * consists in only processing a part of the events at once, but one drawback
 * is that unhandled events will still wake the poller up. Using an event-driven
 * poller such as EPOLL_ET will solve this issue though.
 *
 * A file descriptor has a distinct state for each direction. This state is a
 * combination of two bits :
 *  bit 0 = active Y/N : is set if the FD is active, which means that its
 *          handler will be called without prior polling ;
 *  bit 1 = polled Y/N : is set if the FD was subscribed to polling
 *
 * It is perfectly valid to have both bits set at a time, which generally means
 * that the FD was reported by polling, was marked active and not yet unpolled.
 * Such a state must not last long to avoid unneeded wakeups.
 *
 * The state of the FD as of last change is preserved in two other bits. These
 * ones are useful to save a significant amount of system calls during state
 * changes, because there is no need to update the FD status in the system until
 * we're about to call the poller.
 *
 * Since we do not want to scan all the FD list to find speculative I/O events,
 * we store them in a list consisting in a linear array holding only the FD
 * indexes right now. Note that a closed FD cannot exist in the spec list,
 * because it is closed by fd_delete() which in turn calls __fd_clo() which
 * always removes it from the list.
 *
 * For efficiency reasons, we will store the Read and Write bits interlaced to
 * form a 4-bit field, so that we can simply shift the value right by 0/1 and
 * get what we want :
 *    3  2  1  0
 *   Wp Rp Wa Ra
 *
 * The FD array has to hold a back reference to the speculative list. This
 * reference is always valid unless the FD if currently being polled and not
 * updated (in which case the reference points to index 0).
 *
 * We store the FD state in the 4 lower bits of fdtab[fd].spec_e, and save the
 * previous state upon changes in the 4 higher bits, so that changes are easy
 * to spot.
