33 Execution control library [exec]

33.8 Operation states [exec.opstate]

33.8.2 execution​::​start [exec.opstate.start]

The name start denotes a customization point object that starts ([exec.async.ops]) the asynchronous operation associated with the operation state object.
For a subexpression op, the expression start(op) is ill-formed if op is an rvalue.
Otherwise, it is expression-equivalent to MANDATE-NOTHROW(op.start()).
If op.start() does not start ([exec.async.ops]) the asynchronous operation associated with the operation state op, the behavior of calling start(op) is undefined.
