From 2da61b671eb89fcaa306738f44eed472977d6587 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Hajnoczi Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2014 11:30:03 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] rfifolock: add recursive FIFO lock QemuMutex does not guarantee fairness and cannot be acquired recursively: Fairness means each locker gets a turn and the scheduler cannot cause starvation. Recursive locking is useful for composition, it allows a sequence of locking operations to be invoked atomically by acquiring the lock around them. This patch adds RFifoLock, a recursive lock that guarantees FIFO order. Its first user is added in the next patch. RFifoLock has one additional feature: it can be initialized with an optional contention callback. The callback is invoked whenever a thread must wait for the lock. For example, it can be used to poke the current owner so that they release the lock soon.
