#ifndef WEPOLL_REFLOCK_H_ #define WEPOLL_REFLOCK_H_ /* The reflock is a special kind of lock that normally prevents a chunk of * memory from being freed, but does allow the chunk of memory to eventually be * released in a coordinated fashion. * * Under normal operation, threads increase and decrease the reference count, * which are wait-free operations. * * Exactly once during the reflock's lifecycle, a thread holding a reference to * the lock may "destroy" the lock; this operation blocks until all other * threads holding a reference to the lock have dereferenced it. After * "destroy" returns, the calling thread may assume that no other threads have * a reference to the lock. * * Attemmpting to lock or destroy a lock after reflock_unref_and_destroy() has * been called is invalid and results in undefined behavior. Therefore the user * should use another lock to guarantee that this can't happen. */ #include #include "internal.h" typedef struct reflock { uint32_t state; } reflock_t; WEPOLL_INTERNAL int reflock_global_init(void); WEPOLL_INTERNAL void reflock_init(reflock_t* reflock); WEPOLL_INTERNAL void reflock_ref(reflock_t* reflock); WEPOLL_INTERNAL void reflock_unref(reflock_t* reflock); WEPOLL_INTERNAL void reflock_unref_and_destroy(reflock_t* reflock); #endif /* WEPOLL_REFLOCK_H_ */
