 /*
  * FileIO AsyncIO exposes read/write IO pools that allow doing IO asynchronously.
  * Current implementation relies on having one thread that reads and one that
  * writes.
  * Each IO pool supports up to `MAX_IO_JOBS` that can be enqueued for work, but
  * are performed serially by the appropriate worker thread.
  * Most systems exposes better primitives to perform asynchronous IO, such as
  * io_uring on newer linux systems. The API is built in such a way that in the
  * future we could replace the threads with better solutions when available.
