13 * rw semaphores implemented November 1999 by Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org>
15 #include <linux/config.h>
16 #include <linux/sched.h>
17 #include <linux/init.h>
18 #include <asm/errno.h>
20 #include <asm/semaphore.h>
23 * Semaphores are implemented using a two-way counter:
24 * The "count" variable is decremented for each process
25 * that tries to acquire the semaphore, while the "sleeping"
26 * variable is a count of such acquires.
28 * Notably, the inline "up()" and "down()" functions can
29 * efficiently test if they need to do any extra work (up
30 * needs to do something only if count was negative before
31 * the increment operation.
33 * "sleeping" and the contention routine ordering is protected
34 * by the spinlock in the semaphore's waitqueue head.
36 * Note that these functions are only called when there is
37 * contention on the lock, and as such all this is the
38 * "non-critical" part of the whole semaphore business. The
39 * critical part is the inline stuff in <asm/semaphore.h>
40 * where we want to avoid any extra jumps and calls.
44 * Logic:
45 * - only on a boundary condition do we need to care. When we go
46 * from a negative count to a non-negative, we wake people up.
47 * - when we go from a non-negative count to a negative do we
48 * (a) synchronize with the "sleeper" count and (b) make sure
49 * that we're on the wakeup list before we synchronize so that
50 * we cannot lose wakeup events.
