+``mustprogress``
+    This attribute indicates that the function is required to return, unwind,
+    or interact with the environment in an observable way e.g. via a
+    volatile memory access, I/O, or other synchronization. 
+    The ``mustprogress`` attribute is intended to model the
+    requirements of the first section of `[intro.progress] of the C++
+    Standard <http://eel.is/c++draft/intro.progress>`_. If a `mustprogress` 
+    function does not satisfy this contract, the behavior is undefined. A
+    non-interacting loop in a such a function is assumed to terminate,
+    and may be removed. This attribute does not apply transitively to callees,
+    but does apply for call sites within the function. Note that `willreturn`
+    implies `mustprogress`.
