+// The code in this file is mostly to obtain a binary-oriented, net.Conn analogous
+// util.WebSocketConn from the awkward APIs of gorilla/websocket and net/http
+//
+// The flow of our process is: accept a Conn from remote, read the first packet remote sent us. If it's in the format
+// of a TLS handshake, we hand it over to the TLS part; if it's in the format of a HTTP request, we process it as a
+// websocket and eventually wrap the remote Conn as util.WebSocketConn,
+//
+// To get a util.WebSocketConn, we need a gorilla/websocket.Conn. This is obtained by using upgrader.Upgrade method
+// inside a HTTP request handler function (which is defined by us). The HTTP request handler function is invoked by
+// net/http package upon receiving a request from a Conn.
+//
+// Ideally we want to give net/http the connection we got from remote, then it can read the first packet (which should
+// be an HTTP request) from that Conn and call the handler function, which can then be upgraded to obtain a
+// gorilla/websocket.Conn. But this won't work for two reasons: one is that we have ALREADY READ the request packet
+// from the remote Conn to determine if it's TLS or HTTP. When net/http reads from the Conn, it will not receive that
+// request packet. The second reason is that there is no API in net/http that accepts a Conn at all. Instead, the
+// closest we can get is http.Serve which takes in a net.Listener and a http.Handler which implements the ServeHTTP
+// function.
+//
+// Recall that net.Listener has a method Accept which blocks until the Listener receives a connection, then
+// it returns a net.Conn. net/http calls Listener.Accept repeatedly and creates a new goroutine handling each Conn
+// accepted.
+//
+// So here is what we need to do: we need to create a type WsAcceptor that implements net.Listener interface.
+// the first time WsAcceptor.Accept is called, it will return something that implements net.Conn, subsequent calls to
+// Accept will return error (so that the caller won't call again)
+//
+// The "something that implements net.Conn" needs to do the following: the first time Read is called, it returns the
+// request packet we got from the remote Conn which we have already read, so that the packet, which is an HTTP request
+// will be processed by the handling function. Subsequent calls to Read will read directly from the remote Conn. To do
+// this we create a type firstBuffedConn that implements net.Conn. When we instantiate a firstBuffedConn object, we
+// give it the request packet we have already read from the remote Conn, as well as the reference to the remote Conn.
+//
+// So now we call http.Serve(WsAcceptor, [some handler]), net/http will call WsAcceptor.Accept, which returns a
+// firstBuffedConn. net/http will call WsAcceptor.Accept again but this time it returns error so net/http will stop.
+// firstBuffedConn.Read will then be called, which returns the request packet from remote Conn. Then
+// [some handler].ServeHTTP will be called, in which websocket.upgrader.Upgrade will be called to obtain a
+// websocket.Conn
+//
+// One problem remains: websocket.upgrader.Upgrade is called inside the handling function. The websocket.Conn it
+// returned needs to be somehow preserved so we can keep using it. To do this, we define a type WsHandshakeHandler
+// which implements http.Handler. WsHandshakeHandler has a struct field of type net.Conn that can be set. Inside
+// WsHandshakeHandler.ServeHTTP, the returned websocket.Conn from upgrader.Upgrade will be converted into a
+// util.WebSocketConn, whose reference will be kept in the struct field. Whoever has the reference to the instance of
+// WsHandshakeHandler can get the reference to the established util.WebSocketConn.
+//
+// There is another problem: the call of http.Serve(WsAcceptor, WsHandshakeHandler) is async. We don't know when
+// the instance of WsHandshakeHandler will have the util.WebSocketConn ready. We synchronise this using a channel.
+// A channel called finished will be provided to an instance of WsHandshakeHandler upon its creation. Once
+// WsHandshakeHandler.ServeHTTP has the reference to util.WebSocketConn ready, it will write to finished.
+// Outside, immediately after the call to http.Serve(WsAcceptor, WsHandshakeHandler), we read from finished so that the
+// execution will block until the reference to util.WebSocketConn is ready.
+
 // since we need to read the first packet from the client to identify its protocol, the first packet will no longer
 // be in Conn's buffer. However, websocket.Upgrade relies on reading the first packet for handshake, so we must
 // fake a conn that returns the first packet on first read
