-;; What happens if there are multiple copies of Emacs running on the
-;; same machine, and they all try to start up the GDS server? They
-;; can't all listen on the same TCP port, so the short answer is that
-;; all of them except the first will get an EADDRINUSE error when
-;; trying to bind.
-;;
-;; We want to be able to handle this scenario, though, so that Scheme
-;; code can be evaluated, and help invoked, in any of those Emacsen.
-;; So we introduce the idea of a "slave server". When a new GDS
-;; server gets an EADDRINUSE bind error, the implication is that there
-;; is already a GDS server running, so the new server instead connects
-;; to the existing one (by issuing a connect to the GDS port number).
-;;
-;; Let's call the first server the "master", and the new one the
-;; "slave". In principle the master can now proxy any GDS client
-;; connections through to the slave, so long as there is sufficient
-;; information in the protocol for it to decide when and how to do
-;; this.
-;;
-;; The basic information and mechanism that we need for this is as
-;; follows.
-;;
-;; - A unique ID for each Emacs; this can be each Emacs's PID. When a
-;; slave server connects to the master, it announces itself by sending
-;; the protocol (emacs ID).
-;;
-;; - A way for a client to indicate which Emacs it wants to use. At
-;; the protocol level, this is an extra argument in the (name ...)
-;; protocol. (The absence of this argument means "no preference". A
-;; simplistic master server might then decide to use its own Emacs; a
-;; cleverer one might monitor which Emacs appears to be most in use,
-;; and use that one.) At the API level this can be an optional
-;; argument to the `gds-connect' procedure, and the Emacs GDS code
-;; would obviously set this argument when starting a client from
-;; within Emacs.
-;;
-;; We also want a strategy for continuing seamlessly if the master
-;; server shuts down.
-;;
-;; - Each slave server will detect this as an error on the connection
-;; to the master socket. Each server then tries to bind to the GDS
-;; port again (a race which the OS will resolve), and if that fails,
-;; connect again. The result of this is that there should be a new
-;; master, and the others all slaves connected to the new master.
-;;
-;; - Each client will also detect this as an error on the connection
-;; to the (master) server. Either the client should try to connect
-;; again (perhaps after a short delay), or the reconnection can be
-;; delayed until the next time that the client requires the server.
-;; (Probably the latter, all done within `gds-read'.)
-;;
-;; (Historical note: Before this master-slave idea, clients were
-;; identified within gds-server.scm and gds*.el by an ID which was
-;; actually the file descriptor of their connection to the server.
-;; That is no good in the new scheme, because each client's ID must
-;; persist when the master server changes, so we now use the client's
-;; PID instead. We didn't use PID before because the client/server
-;; code was written to be completely asynchronous, which made it
-;; tricky for the server to discover each client's PID and associate
-;; it with a particular connection. Now we solve that problem by
-;; handling the initial protocol exchange synchronously.)
