// Package udp provides a UDP server implementation with connectionless datagram support.
//
// # Overview
//
// This package implements the github.com/nabbar/golib/socket.Server interface
// for the UDP protocol, providing a stateless datagram server with features including:
//   - Connectionless UDP datagram handling
//   - Single handler for all incoming datagrams
//   - Callback hooks for errors and informational messages
//   - Graceful shutdown support
//   - Atomic state management for thread safety
//   - Context-aware operations
//   - Optional socket configuration via UpdateConn callback
//
// Unlike TCP servers which maintain persistent connections, UDP servers operate
// in a stateless mode where each datagram is processed independently without
// maintaining connection state. This makes UDP ideal for scenarios requiring
// low latency, multicast/broadcast communication, or where connection overhead
// is undesirable.
//
// # Design Philosophy
//
// The package follows these core design principles:
//
// 1. **Stateless by Design**: No per-client connection tracking, minimal memory footprint
// 2. **Thread Safety**: All operations use atomic primitives and are safe for concurrent use
// 3. **Context Integration**: Full support for context-based cancellation and deadlines
// 4. **Callback-Based**: Flexible event notification through registered callbacks
// 5. **Standard Compliance**: Implements standard socket.Server interface
// 6. **Zero Dependencies**: Only standard library and golib packages
//
// # Architecture

//
// ## Data Flow
//
// The server follows this execution flow:
//
//  1. New() creates server instance with handler and optional UpdateConn
//     ↓
//  2. RegisterServer() sets the listen address
//     ↓
//  3. Listen() called:
//     a. Creates UDP socket (net.ListenUDP)
//     b. Calls UpdateConn callback (if provided)
//     c. Wraps socket in sCtx (context wrapper)
//     d. Sets server to running state
//     e. Starts handler goroutine
//     f. Waits for shutdown or context cancellation
//     ↓
//  4. Handler goroutine:
//     - Calls HandlerFunc with sCtx
//     - sCtx provides Read/Write for datagram I/O
//     - Runs until context cancelled
//     ↓
//  5. Shutdown() or context cancellation:
//     - Sets gon (shutdown) flag
//     - Waits for handler to complete
//     - Closes UDP socket
//     - Cleans up resources
//     - Returns from Listen()

//
// # Key Features
//
// ## Connectionless Operation
//
// UDP is fundamentally connectionless. Unlike TCP:
//   - No handshake or connection establishment
//   - No persistent connection state
//   - Each datagram is independent
//   - No guarantee of delivery or ordering
//   - Lower latency, less overhead
//
// The server reflects this by:
//   - OpenConnections() returns 1 when running, 0 when stopped
//   - No per-client connection tracking
//   - Single handler processes all datagrams
//   - No connection lifecycle events (New/Close)
//
// ## Thread Safety
//
// All mutable state uses atomic operations:
//   - run: Atomic boolean for running state
//   - gon: Atomic boolean for shutdown state
//   - ad: Atomic value for address
//   - fe, fi, fs: Atomic values for callbacks
//
// This ensures thread-safe access without locks, allowing:
//   - Concurrent calls to IsRunning(), IsGone(), OpenConnections()
//   - Safe callback registration while server is running
//   - Safe shutdown from any goroutine
//
// ## Context Integration
//
// The server fully supports Go's context.Context:
//   - Listen() accepts context for cancellation
//   - Context cancellation triggers immediate shutdown
//   - sCtx implements context.Context interface
//   - Deadline and value propagation through context chain
//
// ## Callback System
//
// Three types of callbacks for event notification:
//
// 1. **FuncError**: Error notifications
//   - Called on any error during operation
//   - Receives variadic errors
//   - Should not block
//
// 2. **FuncInfo**: Datagram events
//   - Called for Read/Write events
//   - Receives local addr, remote addr, state
//   - Useful for monitoring and logging
//
// 3. **FuncInfoSrv**: Server lifecycle
//   - Called for server state changes
//   - Receives formatted string messages
//   - Useful for startup/shutdown logging
//
// # Performance Characteristics
//
// ## Memory Usage
//
//	Base overhead:     ~500 bytes (struct + atomics)
//	Per UDP socket:    OS-dependent (~4KB typical)
//	Total idle:        ~5KB
//
// Since UDP is connectionless, memory usage is constant regardless of
// traffic volume (assuming handler doesn't accumulate state).
//
// ## Throughput
//
// UDP throughput is primarily limited by:
//   - Network bandwidth
//   - Handler processing speed
//   - OS socket buffer size
//
// The package itself adds minimal overhead (<1% typical).
//
// ## Latency
//
// Operation latencies (typical):
//   - New(): ~1µs (struct allocation)
//   - RegisterServer(): ~10µs (address resolution)
//   - Listen() startup: ~1-5ms (socket creation)
//   - Shutdown(): ~1-10ms (cleanup)
//   - Datagram handling: ~100ns (handler overhead)
//
// # Limitations and Trade-offs
//
// ## Protocol Limitations (UDP inherent)
//
// 1. **No Reliability**: Datagrams may be lost, duplicated, or reordered
//   - Workaround: Implement application-level acknowledgments
//
// 2. **No Flow Control**: No backpressure mechanism
//   - Workaround: Application-level rate limiting
//
// 3. **No Congestion Control**: Can overwhelm network
//   - Workaround: Application-level bandwidth management
//
// 4. **Limited Datagram Size**: Typically 65,507 bytes max (IPv4)
//   - Workaround: Fragment at application level
//
// 5. **No Encryption**: UDP has no native encryption (unlike TLS for TCP)
//   - Workaround: Use DTLS (not implemented) or application-level encryption
//   - Note: SetTLS() is a no-op for UDP servers
//
// ## Implementation Limitations
//
// 1. **Single Handler**: One handler for all datagrams
//   - Cannot dispatch based on remote address
//   - Handler must multiplex internally if needed
//
// 2. **No Connection Events**: ConnectionNew/ConnectionClose not fired
//   - UDP is stateless, no connection concept
//   - Only ConnectionRead/ConnectionWrite events
//
// 3. **No Per-Client State**: Server maintains no client information
//   - Handler must track state if needed
//   - RemoteAddr() available per datagram only
//
// 4. **No TLS Support**: SetTLS() always returns nil (no-op)
//   - UDP does not support TLS
//   - Use DTLS externally if encryption needed
//
// # Use Cases
//
// UDP servers are ideal for:
//
// ## Real-time Applications
//   - Gaming servers (low latency critical)
//   - Voice/video streaming (occasional loss acceptable)
//   - Live sports updates
//   - Real-time sensor data
//
// ## Broadcast/Multicast
//   - Service discovery protocols
//   - Network monitoring
//   - Live event distribution
//
// ## High-Frequency Data
//   - Time synchronization (NTP)
//   - Network time distribution
//   - Metrics collection
//   - Log aggregation
//
// ## Request-Response Protocols
//   - DNS queries
//   - SNMP monitoring
//   - DHCP configuration
//   - Lightweight RPC
//
// # Best Practices
//
// ## Handler Implementation
//
//	// Good: Non-blocking, stateless handler
//	handler := func(ctx socket.Context) {
//	    buf := make([]byte, 65507) // Max UDP datagram
//	    for {
//	        n, err := ctx.Read(buf)
//	        if err != nil {
//	            return // Exit on error or closure
//	        }
//
//	        // Process datagram
//	        response := process(buf[:n])
//
//	        // Send response (optional)
//	        ctx.Write(response)
//	    }
//	}
//
// ## Error Handling
//
//	// Register error callback for logging
//	srv.RegisterFuncError(func(errs ...error) {
//	    for _, err := range errs {
//	        if err != nil {
//	            log.Printf("UDP error: %v", err)
//	        }
//	    }
//	})
//
// ## Graceful Shutdown
//
//	// Use context for clean shutdown
//	ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())
//	defer cancel()
//
//	// Start server in goroutine
//	go func() {
//	    if err := srv.Listen(ctx); err != nil {
//	        log.Printf("Server error: %v", err)
//	    }
//	}()
//
//	// Shutdown on signal
//	<-sigChan
//	cancel() // Triggers graceful shutdown
//
//	// Wait with timeout
//	shutdownCtx, shutdownCancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second)
//	defer shutdownCancel()
//	srv.Shutdown(shutdownCtx)
//
// ## Socket Configuration
//
//	// Use UpdateConn to set socket options
//	updateFn := func(conn net.Conn) {
//	    if udpConn, ok := conn.(*net.UDPConn); ok {
//	        // Set read buffer size
//	        udpConn.SetReadBuffer(1024 * 1024) // 1MB
//
//	        // Set write buffer size
//	        udpConn.SetWriteBuffer(1024 * 1024)
//	    }
//	}
//
//	srv := udp.New(updateFn, handler, cfg)
//

//
// # Error Handling
//
// The package defines these specific errors:
//
//   - ErrInvalidAddress: Empty or malformed listen address
//   - ErrInvalidHandler: Handler function is nil
//   - ErrShutdownTimeout: Shutdown exceeded context timeout
//   - ErrInvalidInstance: Operation on nil server instance
//
// All errors are logged via the registered FuncError callback if set.
//
// # Thread Safety
//
// **Concurrent-safe operations:**
//   - IsRunning(), IsGone(), OpenConnections(): Always safe
//   - RegisterFuncError/Info/InfoServer(): Safe at any time
//   - RegisterServer(): Safe before Listen() only
//   - Shutdown(), Close(): Safe from any goroutine
//
// **Not concurrent-safe:**
//   - Multiple Listen() calls: Will fail with error
//   - RegisterServer() during Listen(): Ignored
//
// # Examples
//
// See example_test.go for comprehensive usage examples including:
//   - Basic UDP echo server
//   - Server with callbacks
//   - Socket configuration
//   - Graceful shutdown
//   - Error handling
//   - Integration with config package
