// A cache for a value that is built at most once per generation.
//
// The value itself is owned by the entry owner (usually a file scope `static`); the entry only
// remembers whether that value is still valid and knows how to drop it. `--dynamic-interval`
// starts a new generation for every round, dropping all the values that have been built so far,
// so the modules re-detect them instead of replaying the first round's snapshot.
//
// An entry registers itself the first time it is used. There is therefore no central list to keep
// in sync, and a cache cannot be forgotten in it. Do not use this type for state that is carried
// across calls to derive a rate (cpuusage, diskio, netio, top): that is a baseline rather than a
// snapshot, and dropping it makes the first sample of a round read as zero.
//
// The storage pointed to by `storage` must stay valid for the whole run; only the value behind it
// is dropped by an invalidation.
//
// Not thread safe: entries are only touched from a single thread, on a frame boundary, while the
// modules are not running.

// initialized before `init` runs, so a call made from within `init` returns the partially built
// value instead of recursing.

// Staleness test for entries whose initialization needs arguments that are not part of the cache

// itself.
