29 MySQL rwlock ABI.
30
31 There are two "layers":
32 1) native_rw_*()
33 Functions that map directly down to OS primitives.
34 Windows - SRWLock
35 Other OSes - pthread
36 2) mysql_rw*()
37 Functions that include Performance Schema instrumentation.
38 See include/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h
39
40 This file also includes rw_pr_*(), which implements a special
41 version of rwlocks that prefer readers. The P_S version of these
42 are mysql_prlock_*() - see include/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h

64/**
65 Portable implementation of special type of read-write locks.
66
67 These locks have two properties which are unusual for rwlocks:
68 1) They "prefer readers" in the sense that they do not allow
69 situations in which rwlock is rd-locked and there is a
70 pending rd-lock which is blocked (e.g. due to pending
71 request for wr-lock).
72 This is a stronger guarantee than one which is provided for
73 PTHREAD_RWLOCK_PREFER_READER_NP rwlocks in Linux.
74 MDL subsystem deadlock detector relies on this property for
75 its correctness.
76 2) They are optimized for uncontended wr-lock/unlock case.
77 This is scenario in which they are most often used
78 within MDL subsystem. Optimizing for it gives significant
79 performance improvements in some of tests involving many
80 connections.
81
82 Another important requirement imposed on this type of rwlock
83 by the MDL subsystem is that it should be OK to destroy rwlock
84 object which is in unlocked state even though some threads might
85 have not yet fully left unlock operation for it (of course there
86 is an external guarantee that no thread will try to lock rwlock
87 which is destroyed).
88 Putting it another way the unlock operation should not access
89 rwlock data after changing its state to unlocked.
90
91 TODO/FIXME: We should consider alleviating this requirement as
92 it blocks us from doing certain performance optimizations.
