// A threadpool is a limited set of threads that can be used to apply a
// function to work contained in a work queue. The work queue is outside
// of the scope of the threadpool; the threadpool merely provides
// mechanisms to grow the number of threads in the threadpool on demand.

// Effects: a new threadpool is allocated and initialized. the number of
// threads in the threadpool is limited to max_threads. initially, there
// are no threads in the pool.
// Returns: if there are no errors, the threadpool is set and zero is returned.
// Otherwise, an error number is returned.

// Effects: the calling thread joins with all of the threads in the threadpool.

// Effects: the number of threads in the threadpool is expanded by 1 as long
// as the current number of threads in the threadpool is less than the max
// and there are no idle threads.

// Expects: external serialization on this function; only one thread may
// execute this function
