+
+// Notes about the C++ and C versions of the assert macros.
+//
+// The C++ versions of these macros follow a very specific form for testing the
+// assert predicate `x`. Specifically, the test of the predicate is _always_
+// written simply as `if (x)`. Not:
+//
+// 1) `if (!x)` // or
+// 2) `if ((x))` // or
+// 3) `if (unlikely(!(x))) // or
+// 4) `if (ZX_DEBUG_ASSERT_ENABLED && unlikely(!(x))) // or, anything else.
+//
+// It is *always* just `if (x)`. There is a method to this madness. The
+// primary reason for this is to catch mistakes of the following form:
+//
+// ZX_DEBUG_ASSERT(my_bool_variable = false);
+// ZX_ASSERT(my_int_variable = 5);
+//
+// Both of these are examples of a pattern where a code author meant to use
+// comparison (`==`), but accidentally used assignment (`=`), meaning that the
+// first of these examples is always going to fire, while the second will never
+// fire. Both of them will have a side effect of mutating their variable, but a
+// ZX_DEBUG_ASSERT's mutation will drop out of a release build.
+//
+// :: Accidental Assignment Protection ::
+//
+// This is all very bad, and _should_ be caught by the -Wparentheses warning,
+// when enabled (which it usually is). Unfortunately, surrounding an assignment
+// operation in a set of `()` will suppress the warning. Pretty much any other
+// form of the predicate test ends up requiring that we add in an extra pair of
+// `()`. This also includes wrapping the predicate in things like `unlikely(x)`
+// and `likely(x)`. So, we have to restrict ourselves strictly to testing with
+// `if (x)` in order to get the accidental assignment protection we desire.
+//
+// :: Temporary Variable Latching ::
+//
+// A surprise advantage to taking this approach is that it allows us (in C++) to
+// more easily write predicates which involve latching to a temporary variable.
+// Consider a case where we want to debug assert something about a value
+// returned by a function which is expensive to call. We could write:
+//
+// DEBUG_ASSERT_MSG(Expensive() == 5,
+// "Expensive() returned a non-five value (%u)",
+// Expensive());
+//
+// But now we are calling the expensive function twice. We could also say:
+//
+// [[maybe_unused]] const uint32_t e = Expensive();
+// ZX_DEBUG_ASSERT_MSG(e, "Expensive() returned a non-five value (%u)", e);
+//
+// but it takes a couple of lines, we have to add in a [[maybe_unused]]
+// annotation, and we may still be forced to evaluate Expensive if the compiler
+// cannot tell that it is guaranteed to have no side effects.
+//
+// With the new only-`if (x)` form of testing the predicate, however, we can do
+// better. Now, we can write:
+//
+// ZX_DEBUG_ASSERT_MSG(const uint32_t e = Expensive(); e == 5,
+// "Expensive() returned a non-five value (%u)", e);
+//
+// We still get our protection against accidental assignment, we are guaranteed
+// to evaluate Expensive exactly once in a debug build, and zero times in a
+// release build.
+//
+// :: WARNING - C code does not get these benefits ::
+//
+// To write in this style, but also preserve the likely/unlikely hinting
+// benefits, we are forced to use C++'s standardized attributes `[[likely]]` and
+// `[[unlikely]]``. These are not available in C, which has to use the old
+// compiler attribute macros, which always end up introducing `()`, and
+// suppressing the accidental assignment protection. Right now, there is no
+// good way around this, and as long as we are building C code using this
+// header, we will need to maintain a version of these macros which do not offer
+// the same level of protection.
