A + * barrier object contains 2 shared counters based on eventfd. Both processes + * can now place barriers and wait for the other end to reach a random or + * specific barrier. + * Barriers are numbered, so you can either wait for the other end to reach any + * barrier or the last barrier that you placed. This way, you can use barriers + * for one-way *and* full synchronization. Note that even-though barriers are + * numbered, these numbers are internal and recycled once both sides reached the + * same barrier (implemented as a simple signed counter). It is thus not + * possible to address barriers by their ID. + * + * Barrier-API: Both ends can place as many barriers via barrier_place() as + * they want and each pair of barriers on both sides will be implicitly linked. + * Each side can use the barrier_wait/sync_*() family of calls to wait for the + * other side to place a specific barrier. barrier_wait_next() waits until the + * other side calls barrier_place(). No links between the barriers are + * considered and this simply serves as most basic asynchronous barrier. + * barrier_sync_next() is like barrier_wait_next() and waits for the other side + * to place their next barrier via barrier_place(). However, it only waits for + * barriers that are linked to a barrier we already placed. If the other side + * already placed more barriers than we did, barrier_sync_next() returns + * immediately. + * barrier_sync() extends barrier_sync_next() and waits until the other end + * placed as many barriers via barrier_place() as we did. If they already placed + * as many as we did (or more), it returns immediately. + * + * Additionally to basic barriers, an abortion event is available. + * barrier_abort() places an abortion event that cannot be undone. An abortion + * immediately cancels all placed barriers and replaces them. Any running and + * following wait/sync call besides barrier_wait_abortion() will immediately + * return false on both sides (otherwise, they always return true). + * barrier_abort() can be called multiple times on both ends and will be a + * no-op if already called on this side. + * barrier_wait_abortion() can be used to wait for the other side to call + * barrier_abort() and is the only wait/sync call that does not return + * immediately if we aborted outself. It only returns once the other side + * called barrier_abort(). + * + * Barriers can be used for in-process and inter-process synchronization. + * However, for in-process synchronization you could just use mutexes. + * Therefore, main target is IPC and we require both sides to *not* share the FD + * table. If that's given, barriers provide target tracking: If the remote side + * exit()s, an abortion event is implicitly queued on the other side. This way, + * a sync/wait call will be woken up if the remote side crashed or exited + * unexpectedly. However, note that these abortion events are only queued if the + * barrier-queue has been drained. Therefore, it is safe to place a barrier and + * exit. The other side can safely wait on the barrier even though the exit + * queued an abortion event. Usually, the abortion event would overwrite the + * barrier, however, that's not true for exit-abortion events. Those are only + * queued if the barrier-queue is drained (thus, the receiving side has placed + * more barriers than the remote side). + */ + +/** + * barrier_create() - Initialize a barrier object + * @obj: barrier to initialize + * + * This initializes a barrier object.
