<p>This function is an unsafe low-level implementation detail typically only
used by crates using <code>futures</code> in <code>no_std</code> context. Users of this crate
who also use the standard library never need to invoke this function.</p>
<p>The task system in the <code>futures</code> crate relies on some notion of &quot;local
storage&quot; for the running thread and/or context. The <code>task::current</code> function
can get invoked in any context, for example, and needs to be able to return
a <code>Task</code>. Typically with the standard library this is supported with
thread-local-storage, but this is not available in <code>no_std</code> contexts!</p>
<p>This function is provided to allow <code>no_std</code> contexts to continue to be able
to use the standard task system in this crate. The functions provided here
will be used as-if they were thread-local-storage getters/setters. The <code>get</code>
function provided is used to retrieve the current thread-local value of the
task system's pointer, returning null if not initialized. The <code>set</code> function
updates the value of the pointer.</p>
<h1 id="return-value" class="section-header"><a href="#return-value">Return value</a></h1>
<p>This function will return whether initialization succeeded or not. This
function can be called concurrently and only the first invocation will
succeed. If <code>false</code> is returned then the <code>get</code> and <code>set</code> pointers provided
were <em>not</em> registered for use with the task system, but if <code>true</code> was
provided then they will be called when the task system is used.</p>
<p>Note that while safe to call concurrently it's recommended to still perform
external synchronization when calling this function. This task system is
not guaranteed to be ready to go until a call to this function returns
<code>true</code>. In other words, if you call this function and see <code>false</code>, the
task system may not be ready to go as another thread may still be calling
<code>init</code>.</p>
<h1 id="unsafety" class="section-header"><a href="#unsafety">Unsafety</a></h1>
<p>This function is unsafe due to the requirements on the behavior of the
<code>get</code> and <code>set</code> functions. The pointers returned from these functions must
reflect the semantics specified above and must also be thread-local,
depending on the definition of a &quot;thread&quot; in the calling context.</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
