+// Platform specific API.
+// When integrating a new platform the following functions must be implemented.
+
+// Called once for every `Thread` object to setup the initial state of the
+// threads stack.
+//
+// Arguments:
+//   stack_ptr    Pointer to the bottom of the stack.
+//   entry        Function pointer to the entry-point called on first `yield`.
+//   ctx          Context passed to `entry`.
+//
+// Return:
+//   Return pointer to the top of the stack after initialization.
+//
+// Requirements:
+//   - Stack must be descending.
+//   - Returned stack pointer must be aligned according to the platform specification.
+//   - Stack must be setup in a way that a consequent call to `yield` will call
+//     `entry` with `ctx` supplied as argument.
+void* init_stack(void* stack_ptr, void (*entry)(void*), const void* ctx);
+
+// Switch execution context from current stack to `new_stack`.
+//
+// Arguments:
+//   new_stack    Stack pointer of new context to switch to.
+//   old_stack    Pointer to location to store the current stack pointer.
+extern "C" void yield(const void* new_stack, void** old_stack);
