25 * (32-bit case illustrated, similar for 64-bit)
27 * 0x0000000X (1) X readers active or attempting lock, no writer waiting
28 * X = #active_readers + #readers attempting to lock
31 * 0x00000000 rwsem is unlocked, and no one is waiting for the lock or
32 * attempting to read lock or write lock.
34 * 0xffff000X (1) X readers active or attempting lock, with waiters for lock
35 * X = #active readers + # readers attempting lock
36 * (X*ACTIVE_BIAS + WAITING_BIAS)
37 * (2) 1 writer attempting lock, no waiters for lock
38 * X-1 = #active readers + #readers attempting lock
39 * ((X-1)*ACTIVE_BIAS + ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS)
40 * (3) 1 writer active, no waiters for lock
41 * X-1 = #active readers + #readers attempting lock
42 * ((X-1)*ACTIVE_BIAS + ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS)
44 * 0xffff0001 (1) 1 reader active or attempting lock, waiters for lock
45 * (WAITING_BIAS + ACTIVE_BIAS)
46 * (2) 1 writer active or attempting lock, no waiters for lock
49 * 0xffff0000 (1) There are writers or readers queued but none active
50 * or in the process of attempting lock.
52 * Note: writer can attempt to steal lock for this count by adding
53 * ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS in cmpxchg and checking the old count
55 * 0xfffe0001 (1) 1 writer active, or attempting lock. Waiters on queue.
56 * (ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS + WAITING_BIAS)
58 * Note: Readers attempt to lock by adding ACTIVE_BIAS in down_read and checking
59 * the count becomes more than 0 for successful lock acquisition,
60 * i.e. the case where there are only readers or nobody has lock.
61 * (1st and 2nd case above).
63 * Writers attempt to lock by adding ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS in down_write and
64 * checking the count becomes ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS for successful lock
65 * acquisition (i.e. nobody else has lock or attempts lock). If
66 * unsuccessful, in rwsem_down_write_failed, we'll check to see if there
67 * are only waiters but none active (5th case above), and attempt to
