33 * This synchronisation object sequencializes concurrent read or write accesses to a
34 * locally shared object in a given cluster (i.e. made by thread(s) running in same cluster.
35 * This lock has only two states: taken or free.
36 * When the lock has been taken by another thread T', the thread T executing the
37 * queuelock_acquire() function blocks and deschedules, after registering in the waiting
38 * queue rooted in lock descriptor. The first thread in the waiting queue will be unblocked
39 * by the owner thread executing the queuelock_release() function.
40 * To handle concurrent accesses between a thread T executing the acquire() function
41 * and a thread T' executing the release() function, the "queuelock" is protected
42 * by a "busylock" used by these two access functions.
43 * WARNING: this queuelock is NOT registered in the thread "local_locks" field.
