/* This file defines futex operations used internally in glibc. A futex
consists of the so-called futex word in userspace, which is of type
unsigned int and represents an application-specific condition, and kernel
state associated with this particular futex word (e.g., wait queues). The
futex operations we provide are wrappers for the futex syscalls and add
glibc-specific error checking of the syscall return value. We abort on
error codes that are caused by bugs in glibc or in the calling application,
or when an error code is not known. We return error codes that can arise
in correct executions to the caller. Each operation calls out exactly the
return values that callers need to handle.
The private flag must be either FUTEX_PRIVATE or FUTEX_SHARED.
FUTEX_PRIVATE is always supported, and the implementation can internally
use FUTEX_SHARED when FUTEX_PRIVATE is requested. FUTEX_SHARED is not
necessarily supported (use futex_supports_pshared to detect this).
We expect callers to only use these operations if futexes and the
specific futex operations being used are supported (e.g., FUTEX_SHARED).
Given that waking other threads waiting on a futex involves concurrent
accesses to the futex word, you must use atomic operations to access the
futex word.
Both absolute and relative timeouts can be used. An absolute timeout
expires when the given specific point in time on the CLOCK_REALTIME clock
passes, or when it already has passed. A relative timeout expires when
the given duration of time on the CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock passes. Relative
timeouts may be imprecise (see futex_supports_exact_relative_timeouts).
Due to POSIX requirements on when synchronization data structures such
as mutexes or semaphores can be destroyed and due to the futex design
having separate fast/slow paths for wake-ups, we need to consider that
futex_wake calls might effectively target a data structure that has been
destroyed and reused for another object, or unmapped; thus, some
errors or spurious wake-ups can happen in correct executions that would
not be possible in a program using just a single futex whose lifetime
does not end before the program terminates. For background, see:
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-04/msg00075.html
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/27/472 */
/* Defined this way for interoperability with lowlevellock.
FUTEX_PRIVATE must be zero because the initializers for pthread_mutex_t,
pthread_rwlock_t, and pthread_cond_t initialize the respective field of
those structures to zero, and we want FUTEX_PRIVATE to be the default. */

while (atomic_load_relaxed(wait_flag) && !<spurious wake-up>);
Note that no guarantee of a happens-before relation between a woken
futex_wait and a futex_wake is documented; however, this does not matter
in practice because we have to consider spurious wake-ups (see below),
and thus would not be able to reliably reason about which futex_wake woke
us.
Returns 0 if woken by a futex operation or spuriously. (Note that due to
the POSIX requirements mentioned above, we need to conservatively assume
that unrelated futex_wake operations could wake this futex; it is easiest
to just be prepared for spurious wake-ups.)
Returns EAGAIN if the futex word did not match the expected value.
Returns EINTR if waiting was interrupted by a signal.
Note that some previous code in glibc assumed the underlying futex
operation (e.g., syscall) to start with or include the equivalent of a
seq_cst fence; this allows one to avoid an explicit seq_cst fence before
a futex_wait call when synchronizing similar to Dekker synchronization.
However, we make no such guarantee here. */

whether the waiting was interrupted by a signal. Example use:
while (atomic_load_relaxed (&futex_word) == 23)
futex_wait_simple (&futex_word, 23, FUTEX_PRIVATE);
