Abstract
This disclosure generally relates to operating systems and methods of computing devices for managing system and function calls. An example method include determining that a fiber is requesting to wait for one or more results of an asynchronous function call, pausing execution of the fiber until the one or more results are completed, enqueuing the paused fiber in a local queue of the one or more results, determining that the one or more results are completed, accessing one or more queued fibers in the local queue of the one or more results. The one or more queued fibers comprise the fiber and resuming execution of the one or more queued fibers, and the asynchronous function call is called by a thread to execute a task without being blocked while the task is being completed.
