+//! Syncronization primitive for initializing a value once, allowing others to await a reference to the value.
+
+use core::cell::Cell;
+use core::future::poll_fn;
+use core::mem::MaybeUninit;
+use core::sync::atomic::{AtomicBool, Ordering};
+use core::task::Poll;
+
+/// The `OnceLock` is a synchronization primitive that allows for
+/// initializing a value once, and allowing others to `.await` a
+/// reference to the value. This is useful for lazy initialization of
+/// a static value.
+///
+/// **Note**: this implementation uses a busy loop to poll the value,
+/// which is not as efficient as registering a dedicated `Waker`.
+/// However, the if the usecase for is to initialize a static variable
+/// relatively early in the program life cycle, it should be fine.
+///
+/// # Example
+/// ```
+/// use futures_executor::block_on;
+/// use embassy_sync::once_lock::OnceLock;
+///
+/// // Define a static value that will be lazily initialized
+/// static VALUE: OnceLock<u32> = OnceLock::new();
+///
+/// let f = async {
+///
+/// // Initialize the value
+/// let reference = VALUE.get_or_init(|| 20);
+/// assert_eq!(reference, &20);
+///
+/// // Wait for the value to be initialized
+/// // and get a static reference it
+/// assert_eq!(VALUE.get().await, &20);
+/// 
+/// };
+/// block_on(f)
+/// ```
