222 This is the first of two steps necessary to block the current thread
223 (IOW, to let it wait for someone else to unblock it or optionally time out
224 after a specified delay). The process consists of two steps to avoid race
225 conditions in case a lock other than the scheduler lock is involved.
227 Usually the thread waits for some condition to change and this condition is
228 something reflected in the caller's data structures which should be
229 protected by a client lock the caller knows about. E.g. in the semaphore
230 code that lock is a per-semaphore spinlock that protects the semaphore data,
231 including the semaphore count and the queue of waiting threads. For certain
232 low-level locking primitives (e.g. mutexes) that client lock is the
233 scheduler lock itself, which simplifies things a bit.
235 If a client lock other than the scheduler lock is used, this function must
236 be called with that lock being held. Afterwards that lock should be dropped
237 and the function that actually blocks the thread shall be invoked
238 (thread_block[_locked]() or thread_block_with_timeout()). In between these
239 two steps no functionality that uses the thread blocking API for this thread
240 shall be used.
242 When the caller determines that the condition for unblocking the thread
243 occurred, it calls thread_unblock_locked() to unblock the thread. At that
244 time one of locks that are held when calling thread_prepare_to_block() must
245 be held. Usually that would be the client lock. In two cases it generally
246 isn't, however, since the unblocking code doesn't know about the client
247 lock: 1. When thread_block_with_timeout() had been used and the timeout
248 occurs. 2. When thread_prepare_to_block() had been called with one or both
249 of the \c B_CAN_INTERRUPT or \c B_KILL_CAN_INTERRUPT flags specified and
250 someone calls thread_interrupt() that is supposed to wake up the thread.
251 In either of these two cases only the scheduler lock is held by the
252 unblocking code. A timeout can only happen after
253 thread_block_with_timeout() has been called, but an interruption is
254 possible at any time. The client code must deal with those situations.
256 Generally blocking and unblocking threads proceed in the following manner:
258 Blocking thread:
259 - Acquire client lock.
260 - Check client condition and decide whether blocking is necessary.
261 - Modify some client data structure to indicate that this thread is now
262 waiting.
263 - Release client lock (unless client lock is the scheduler lock).
264 - Block.
265 - Acquire client lock (unless client lock is the scheduler lock).
266 - Check client condition and compare with block result. E.g. if the wait was
267 interrupted or timed out, but the client condition indicates success, it
268 may be considered a success after all, since usually that happens when
269 another thread concurrently changed the client condition and also tried
270 to unblock the waiting thread. It is even necessary when that other
271 thread changed the client data structures in a way that associate some
272 resource with the unblocked thread, or otherwise the unblocked thread
273 would have to reverse that here.
274 - If still necessary -- i.e. not already taken care of by an unblocking
275 thread -- modify some client structure to indicate that the thread is no
276 longer waiting, so it isn't erroneously unblocked later.
278 Unblocking thread:
279 - Acquire client lock.
280 - Check client condition and decide whether a blocked thread can be woken
282 - Check the client data structure that indicates whether one or more threads
283 are waiting and which thread(s) need(s) to be woken up.
284 - Unblock respective thread(s).
285 - Possibly change some client structure, so that an unblocked thread can
286 decide whether a concurrent timeout/interruption can be ignored, or
287 simply so that it doesn't have to do any more cleanup.
289 Note that in the blocking thread the steps after blocking are strictly
290 required only if timeouts or interruptions are possible. If they are not,
291 the blocking thread can only be woken up explicitly by an unblocking thread,
292 which could already take care of all the necessary client data structure
293 modifications, so that the blocking thread wouldn't have to do that.
295 Note that the client lock can but does not have to be a spinlock.
296 A mutex, a semaphore, or anything that doesn't try to use the thread
297 blocking API for the calling thread when releasing the lock is fine.
298 In particular that means in principle thread_prepare_to_block() can be
299 called with interrupts enabled.
301 Care must be taken when the wait can be interrupted or can time out,
302 especially with a client lock that uses the thread blocking API. After a
303 blocked thread has been interrupted or the the time out occurred it cannot
304 acquire the client lock (or any other lock using the thread blocking API)
305 without first making sure that the thread doesn't still appear to be
306 waiting to other client code. Otherwise another thread could try to unblock
307 it which could erroneously unblock the thread while already waiting on the
308 client lock. So usually when interruptions or timeouts are possible a
309 spinlock needs to be involved.
311 \param thread The current thread.
312 \param flags The blocking flags. Relevant are:
313 - \c B_CAN_INTERRUPT: The thread can be interrupted by any non-blocked
314 signal. Implies \c B_KILL_CAN_INTERRUPT (specified or not).
315 - \c B_KILL_CAN_INTERRUPT: The thread can be interrupted by a kill
316 signal.
317 \param type The type of object the thread will be blocked at. Informative/
318 for debugging purposes. Must be one of the \c THREAD_BLOCK_TYPE_*
319 constants. \c THREAD_BLOCK_TYPE_OTHER implies that \a object is a
320 string.

364 The function checks whether the thread can be interrupted and, if so, calls
365 \code thread_unblock_locked(thread, B_INTERRUPTED) \endcode. Otherwise the
366 function is a no-op.
368 The caller must hold the scheduler lock. Normally thread_unblock_locked()
369 also requires the client lock to be held, but in this case the caller
370 usually doesn't know it. This implies that the client code needs to take
