1 /* rwsem.h: R/W semaphores implemented using XADD/CMPXCHG for i486+
3 * Written by David Howells (dhowells@redhat.com).
5 * Derived from asm-x86/semaphore.h
8 * The MSW of the count is the negated number of active writers and waiting
9 * lockers, and the LSW is the total number of active locks
11 * The lock count is initialized to 0 (no active and no waiting lockers).
13 * When a writer subtracts WRITE_BIAS, it'll get 0xffff0001 for the case of an
14 * uncontended lock. This can be determined because XADD returns the old value.
15 * Readers increment by 1 and see a positive value when uncontended, negative
16 * if there are writers (and maybe) readers waiting (in which case it goes to
19 * The value of WAITING_BIAS supports up to 32766 waiting processes. This can
20 * be extended to 65534 by manually checking the whole MSW rather than relying
23 * The value of ACTIVE_BIAS supports up to 65535 active processes.
25 * This should be totally fair - if anything is waiting, a process that wants a
26 * lock will go to the back of the queue. When the currently active lock is
27 * released, if there's a writer at the front of the queue, then that and only
28 * that will be woken up; if there's a bunch of consequtive readers at the
29 * front, then they'll all be woken up, but no other readers will be.
