99 * This structure defines a thread descriptor.
100 * It is used for both the user threads and the kernel threads.
101 * In a process, a user thread is identified by a unique TRDID (thread identifier):
102 * - The TRDID 16 LSB bits contain the LTID (Local Thread Index).
103 * - The TRDID 16 MSB bits contain the CXY of cluster containing the thread.
104 * For the main thread the LTID value is always 0, in the owner cluster.
105 * The LTID is used to index the th_tbl[] array in the local process descriptor.
106 * This TRDID is computed by the process_register_thread() function, when the user
107 * thread is registered in the local copy of the process descriptor.
108 *
109 * Implementation notes:
110 *
111 * (1) Don't modify the first 4 fields order, as this order is used by the
112 *     hal_kentry assembly code for the TSAR architectures.
113 *
114 * (2) Most of the thread state is private and accessed only by this thread,
115 *     but some fields are shared, and can be modified by other threads.
116 *     - the "blocked" bit_vector can be modified by another thread
117 *       running in another cluster (using atomic instructions),
118 *       to change this thread scheduling status.
119 *     - the "flags" bit_vector can be modified by another thread
120 *       running in another cluster (using atomic instructions),
121 *       to register requests such as ACK or DELETE.
122 *     - the "join_xp" field can be modified by the joining thread,
123 *       and this rendez-vous is protected by the dedicated "join_lock".
124 *
125 * (3) When this thread is blocked on a shared resource (queuelock, condvar,
126 *     or chdev), it registers in the associated waiting queue, using the
127 *     "wait_list" (local list) or "wait_xlist" (trans-cluster list) fields.
128 *
129 * (4) The thread_info_t structure is defined in the shared_almos.h file in the
130 *     /kernel/syscall/shared_include directory.
