/**
 * A pluggable component that receives resolved addresses from {@link NameResolver} and provides the
 * channel a usable subchannel when asked.
 *
 * <h3>Overview</h3>
 *
 * <p>A LoadBalancer typically implements three interfaces:
 * <ol>
 *   <li>{@link LoadBalancer} is the main interface.  All methods on it are invoked sequentially
 *       in the same <strong>synchronization context</strong> (see next section) as returned by
 *       {@link io.grpc.LoadBalancer.Helper#getSynchronizationContext}.  It receives the results
 *       from the {@link NameResolver}, updates of subchannels' connectivity states, and the
 *       channel's request for the LoadBalancer to shutdown.</li>
 *   <li>{@link SubchannelPicker SubchannelPicker} does the actual load-balancing work.  It selects
 *       a {@link Subchannel Subchannel} for each new RPC.</li>
 *   <li>{@link Factory Factory} creates a new {@link LoadBalancer} instance.
 * </ol>
 *
 * <p>{@link Helper Helper} is implemented by gRPC library and provided to {@link Factory
 * Factory}. It provides functionalities that a {@code LoadBalancer} implementation would typically
 * need.
 *
 * <h3>The Synchronization Context</h3>
 *
 * <p>All methods on the {@link LoadBalancer} interface are called from a Synchronization Context,
 * meaning they are serialized, thus the balancer implementation doesn't need to worry about
 * synchronization among them.  {@link io.grpc.LoadBalancer.Helper#getSynchronizationContext}
 * allows implementations to schedule tasks to be run in the same Synchronization Context, with or
 * without a delay, thus those tasks don't need to worry about synchronizing with the balancer
 * methods.
 *
 * <p>However, the actual running thread may be the network thread, thus the following rules must be
 * followed to prevent blocking or even dead-locking in a network:
 *
 * <ol>
 *
 *   <li><strong>Never block in the Synchronization Context</strong>.  The callback methods must
 *   return quickly.  Examples or work that must be avoided: CPU-intensive calculation, waiting on
 *   synchronization primitives, blocking I/O, blocking RPCs, etc.</li>
 *
 *   <li><strong>Avoid calling into other components with lock held</strong>.  The Synchronization
 *   Context may be under a lock, e.g., the transport lock of OkHttp.  If your LoadBalancer holds a
 *   lock in a callback method (e.g., {@link #handleResolvedAddresses handleResolvedAddresses()})
 *   while calling into another method that also involves locks, be cautious of deadlock.  Generally
 *   you wouldn't need any locking in the LoadBalancer if you follow the canonical implementation
 *   pattern below.</li>
 *
 * </ol>
 *
 * <h3>The canonical implementation pattern</h3>
 *
 * <p>A {@link LoadBalancer} keeps states like the latest addresses from NameResolver, the
 * Subchannel(s) and their latest connectivity states.  These states are mutated within the
 * Synchronization Context,
 *
 * <p>A typical {@link SubchannelPicker SubchannelPicker} holds a snapshot of these states.  It may
 * have its own states, e.g., a picker from a round-robin load-balancer may keep a pointer to the
 * next Subchannel, which are typically mutated by multiple threads.  The picker should only mutate
 * its own state, and should not mutate or re-acquire the states of the LoadBalancer.  This way the
 * picker only needs to synchronize its own states, which is typically trivial to implement.
 *
 * <p>When the LoadBalancer states changes, e.g., Subchannels has become or stopped being READY, and
 * we want subsequent RPCs to use the latest list of READY Subchannels, LoadBalancer would create a
 * new picker, which holds a snapshot of the latest Subchannel list.  Refer to the javadoc of {@link
 * io.grpc.LoadBalancer.SubchannelStateListener#onSubchannelState onSubchannelState()} how to do
 * this properly.
 *
 * <p>No synchronization should be necessary between LoadBalancer and its pickers if you follow
 * the pattern above.  It may be possible to implement in a different way, but that would usually
 * result in more complicated threading.
 *
 * @since 1.2.0

     *
     * <ul>

     * <p><strong>All buffered RPCs will stay buffered</strong> until the next call of {@link

     *
     * <p>Note that Subchannel's state may change at the same time the picker is making the
     * decision, which means the decision may be made with (to-be) outdated information.  For
     * example, a picker may return a Subchannel known to be READY, but it has become IDLE when is
     * about to be used by the RPC, which makes the RPC to be buffered.  The LoadBalancer will soon
     * learn about the Subchannels' transition from READY to IDLE, create a new picker and allow the
     * RPC to use another READY transport if there is any.
     *
     * <p>You will want to avoid running into a situation where there are READY Subchannels out
     * there but some RPCs are still buffered for longer than a brief time.
     * <ul>
     *   <li>This can happen if you return Subchannels with states other than READY and IDLE.  For
     *       example, suppose you round-robin on 2 Subchannels, in READY and CONNECTING states
     *       respectively.  If the picker ignores the state and pick them equally, 50% of RPCs will
     *       be stuck in buffered state until both Subchannels are READY.</li>
     *   <li>This can also happen if you don't create a new picker at key state changes of
     *       Subchannels.  Take the above round-robin example again.  Suppose you do pick only READY
     *       and IDLE Subchannels, and initially both Subchannels are READY.  Now one becomes IDLE,
     *       then CONNECTING and stays CONNECTING for a long time.  If you don't create a new picker
     *       in response to the CONNECTING state to exclude that Subchannel, 50% of RPCs will hit it
     *       and be buffered even though the other Subchannel is READY.</li>
     * </ul>
     *
     * <p>In order to prevent unnecessary delay of RPCs, the rules of thumb are:
     * <ol>
     *   <li>The picker should only pick Subchannels that are known as READY or IDLE.  Whether to
     *       pick IDLE Subchannels depends on whether you want Subchannels to connect on-demand or
     *       actively:
     *       <ul>
     *         <li>If you want connect-on-demand, include IDLE Subchannels in your pick results,
     *             because when an RPC tries to use an IDLE Subchannel, the Subchannel will try to
     *             connect.</li>
     *         <li>If you want Subchannels to be always connected even when there is no RPC, you
     *             would call {@link Subchannel#requestConnection Subchannel.requestConnection()}
     *             whenever the Subchannel has transitioned to IDLE, then you don't need to include
     *             IDLE Subchannels in your pick results.</li>
     *       </ul></li>
     *   <li>Always create a new picker and call {@link Helper#updateBalancingState
     *       Helper.updateBalancingState()} whenever {@link #handleSubchannelState
     *       handleSubchannelState()} is called, unless the new state is SHUTDOWN. See
     *       {@code handleSubchannelState}'s javadoc for more details.</li>
     * </ol>
     *
     * @param subchannel the picked Subchannel.  It must have been {@link Subchannel#start started}
     * @param streamTracerFactory if not null, will be used to trace the activities of the stream
