--- This function allows you to create worker threads that may perform
-- network tasks in parallel with your script thread.
--
-- Any network task (e.g. socket:connect(...)
) will cause the
-- running thread to yield to NSE. This allows network tasks to appear to be
-- blocking while being able to run multiple network tasks at once.
-- While this is useful for running multiple separate scripts, it is
-- unfortunately difficult for a script itself to perform network tasks in
-- parallel. In order to allow scripts to also have network tasks running in
-- parallel, we provide this function, stdnse.new_thread
, to
-- create a new thread that can perform its own network related tasks
-- in parallel with the script.
--
-- The script launches the worker thread by calling the new_thread
-- function with the parameters:
-- * The main Lua function for the script to execute, similar to the script action function.
-- * The variable number of arguments to be passed to the worker's main function.
--
-- The stdnse.new_thread
function will return two results:
-- * The worker thread's base (main) coroutine (useful for tracking status).
-- * A status query function (described below).
--
-- The status query function shall return two values:
-- * The result of coroutine.status using the worker thread base coroutine.
-- * The error object thrown that ended the worker thread or nil
if no error was thrown. This is typically a string, like most Lua errors.
--
-- Note that NSE discards all return values of the worker's main function. You
-- must use function parameters, upvalues or environments to communicate
-- results.
--
-- You should use the condition variable (nmap.condvar
)
-- and mutex (nmap.mutex
) facilities to coordinate with your
-- worker threads. Keep in mind that Nmap is single threaded so there are
-- no (memory) issues in synchronization to worry about; however, there
-- is resource contention. Your resources are usually network
-- bandwidth, network sockets, etc. Condition variables are also useful if the
-- work for any single thread is dynamic. For example, a web server spider
-- script with a pool of workers will initially have a single root html
-- document. Following the retrieval of the root document, the set of
-- resources to be retrieved (the worker's work) will become very large
-- (an html document adds many new hyperlinks (resources) to fetch).
--@name new_thread
--@class function
--@param main The main function of the worker thread.
--@param ... The arguments passed to the main worker thread.

-- coroutine that lets us determine whether the script is still active
-- (that is, the script did not end, possibly due to an error), we provide
-- this stdnse.base
function that will retrieve the base
-- coroutine of the script. This base coroutine is the coroutine that runs
-- the action function.
--
-- The base coroutine is useful for many reasons but here are some common

-- * We want to attribute the ownership of an object (perhaps a network socket) to a script.
-- * We want to identify if the script is still alive.
