I have no idea how the Python dev's use IOCP with sockets.

 They can’t figure out a way to support file I/O notifiers (of the kind
commonly used with event loops) with it. If you know of a way to do it,
please tell us.

Well, usually, iirc, been a while, when GQCSEX returns we take the WSAOVERLAPPED and convert it to our extended structure. Basically similar to how Linux uses offsetof to extend node structures, or on Windows CONTAINING_RECORD, then we can use that to pass into a function called on_read, on_write, on_accept, on_connect, ect... type of functions. Now, this is an interesting point. I remember where calling the event handler in an IO thread can be an issue if its going into "generic" user code. So, sometimes I would pass the events to another lock-free queue/stack, whatever so the "logic" threads get to work on it. The logic threads are different than the IO threads.
