More events

• async wrap hook error handling (PR: Asyncwrap more node#5756)
• add exception throw flag to post hook (PR: Asyncwrap more node#5756)
• add parent handle to init callback (PR: async_wrap: correctly pass parent to init callback node#3216)

• add unique id to all hooks: (PR: async_wrap: add uid argument to all asyncWrap hooks node#4600)
• unique ids should be a double, int32 is not enough. (PR: async_wrap: pass uid to JS as double node#7096)

Documentation

• intial documentation (PR: docs: add up to date documentation for AsyncWrap #27)
• document unique id (PR: Async wrap update - destroy hook and uid #37)

If something is missing just edit this. But add a comment so we can keep the history.

Nice, thanks for putting this together! 😸

[AndreasMadsen]

Added:

• no good way for native modules to integrate with AsyncWrap (PR: async_wrap: make native API public node#3504)
• add unique id (PR: AsyncWrap external API improvements node#3461)

@trevnorris could you add a link to the Promises issue in v8.

[trevnorris]

@AndreasMadsen Sorry. Forgot about this. Here's the link: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=4643

Adding Noting nodejs/node#4416 here.

updates:

work is being done on:

• HTTP sockets parserOnBody (PR: Fix async wrap http node#4509, depends on: src: fix MakeCallback error handling node#4507)

new:

• add unique id to all hooks: (PR: async_wrap: add uid argument to all asyncWrap hooks node#4600)

Note: Getting MakeCallback reentrant, which is necessary to fix some issue with AsyncWrap, has been a bit of a pain. Hopefully will be able to finish it this week.

[trevnorris]

MakeCallback is now reentrant, and working on a few other improvements for an EnterpriseJS talk today. I'll throw them up in a PR later this week.
