Tamar Christina explains the design and implementation of WinIO, the asynchronous Windows I/O manager for the Glasgow Haskell Compiler.
Title: The new Windows I/O manager (WinIO) in GHC Speaker: Tamar Christina GHC has a new Windows I/O manager that allows for native support for I/O on Windows. The new I/O manager covers everything from Files to Pipes and Sockets in a completely asynchronous manner while providing as much information to the Haskell runtime such that useful work can still be done while blocked on I/O. The new I/O manager allows for significantly better Windows support and gives a path forward to a more stable and faster compiler.
