The P2P layer urges the maintainer to work when the number of connections reaches `max` or is below `min`. Otherwise, the maintener is lazy and only looks up for connections every two minutes (hardcoded constant). The [maintain] function is another way to signal the maintainer that a maintenance step is desired. When the maintener detects that the number of connections is over `max_threshold`, it randomly kills connections to reach `max_target`. When the maintener detects that the number of connections is below `min_threshold`, it creates enough connection to reach at least `min_target` (and never more than `max_target`). In the process, it might ask its actual peers for new peers. *) type bounds = { min_threshold: int ; min_target: int ; max_target: int ; max_threshold: int ; } type 'meta t (** Type of a maintenance worker. *) val run: greylist_timeout:float -> bounds -> ('msg, 'meta) P2p_pool.t -> 'meta t (** [run ~greylist_timeout bounds pool] is a maintenance worker for [pool] with connection targets specified in [bounds] and greylist GC frequency [greylist_timeout]. *) val maintain: 'meta t -> unit Lwt.t (** [maintain t] gives a hint to maintenance worker [t] that maintenance is needed and returns whenever [t] has done a maintenance cycle. *) val shutdown: 'meta t -> unit Lwt.t (** [shutdown t] is a thread that returns whenever [t] has successfully shut down. *)
