Works on quest/m1/ffi-export/refusals/poll.md, and rewrites it to what remains.

Problem

moq's poll_* methods with no async twin, such as goaway::Consumer::poll, refused for naming std::task::Poll or Context, so ffi/moq/ffi.toml excluded them by name.

Approach

• A function returning Poll<T> exports as a future of T, as an async fn does, when it polls through a &Context, a &mut Context, or a reference to an object exactly one associated function makes from a Waker alone (kio's Waiter::new). Each poll of the future calls the function again with the poll's context, or with a waiter made from its waker and kept until the next poll, so what that poll registered stays registered. Every generator already wraps C futures, so none changed.
• A &Context or &mut Context of a function that returns no Poll, such as Park::hold, takes a <prefix>_waker, which the context is made of for the call.
• Refused with a span: a Poll with no context or waiter parameter, with two, with a borrowed value, or taking a parameter (or self) by value that is not Copy, since the future passes it again at each poll.
• A poll_x whose x exports as a future stays left out, now that it maps too.
• Tests: the api fixture gains Channel::poll_take (through a fixture Waiter that wakes only while it lives), Channel::poll_measure (&mut self, a Copy argument, a Result), and Channel::listen (&Context). All seven languages and the native transcript run them. tests/api.c also checks that a pending poll_take is woken by a later send, which fails if the export drops the waiter between polls. The reject fixture covers each new refusal.
• ffi/moq/ffi.toml drops 8 excludes that now export: Park::hold, announce::Consumer::poll_synced, broadcast::Lister::poll_wanted and poll_unwanted, clock::Deadline::poll, coop::Budget::poll_yield, datagram::Producer::poll_priority, and goaway::Consumer::poll. just ffi moq passes with them in every language. The census at the pin exports 15 more methods (3719 to 3734), and the 83 twins are unchanged.

Choices made without asking:

• Exported names stay Rust's (moq_goaway_Consumer_poll, polled by moq_goaway_Consumer_poll_poll), rather than renaming poll_x to x. Renaming would collide with a sync x and make the plain poll methods nameless.
• The future makes a new waiter at every poll rather than reusing one with will_wake, as kio's Park does. Reuse depends on kio internals (Waiter::reusable) the exporter can't see. A new waiter is always correct and costs one Arc per poll that pends.
• moq-tokio's excludes, such as tokio::connection::Monitor::poll_presence, stay put for narrow-standin, which owns that file's moq-tokio side.

Impact

• Exporter: a function returning Poll now exports as a future, and a Context parameter as a <prefix>_waker. Items that used to refuse now export, and the new refusals above replace foreign type std::task::Poll / Context. Nothing that exported before changes.
• C API (moq): adds the 8 functions above and their _poll and _future_free companions. No wire impact.

Alternatives

• Export the poll directly as poll_t f(self, waiter, outs), taking the Waiter handle. Rejected: every generator would need a second waker path that makes and holds a Waiter, which the quest's plan rules out.
• Recognize kio's Waiter or kio::wait by name. Rejected: that's moq-specific. The made-from-a-Waker rule is general.

Decisions

• Returned Waker and Context (kio's Waiter::waker and Waiter::context), settled by the maintainer on 2026-11-09: ✅ proper waker support: the C ABI returns a <prefix>_waker wrapping Rust's waker, and each of the seven generators wraps it as a callable (rejected: moq marks both #[doc(hidden)]; rust2 won't hide APIs or worsen moq's Rust API for bindings). This replaces the earlier recommendation in the quest's ## Waiting.
• That work stays in the quest, rewritten as a ready [M] plan: it touches the C ABI and all seven generators, beyond this PR's size.
• CodeRabbit's findings, all fixed: a waiter constructor must be safe and take no type or const parameters (else the call needs unsafe or can't infer them), and a record's or enum's &mut self method now refuses with `&mut self` of a value, since C passes the value as a copy and the change would be lost; the glue passed &a_self and failed to compile, for sync methods too. The reject fixture covers all three.

Remaining

The quest's returned wakers and contexts, now a ready plan.

Follow-ups

• None to plan. poll_lease's borrowed Lease<'_> belongs to borrows, and Waiter::poll_future's generic future to generics.

Walkthrough

The exporter now recognizes eligible functions that return Poll<T> and use a context or qualifying waker-derived object. It records task metadata and generates futures that call the function on each poll. The API fixture adds channel methods to test taking and measuring payloads and registering wakers. Rejection fixtures cover unsupported signatures, and transcript tests exercise the behavior across bindings.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 961a5

Some accepted Poll APIs produce bindings that fail to compile. Handle these signatures correctly or reject them during collection before merging; additional pending and error tests are optional.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 55.56% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 18 functions across 13 files. (6 skipped: 6 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Test pending and error results from poll_measure.

The fixtures poll poll_measure only after a nonempty send. Add cases that check a pending poll wakes and completes, and that an empty payload returns the expected error.
