94 * These structures defines a hierarchical, POSIX compliant, barrier.
95 * - If the barrier attribute in the pthread_barrier_init() is NULL, it is implemented
96 *   as a simple, sense reversing barrier, localised in the calling thread cluster.
97 * - If the barrier attribute is defined, it is implemented as a hierarchical, physically
98 *   distributed quad-tree, covering all clusters specified, with the following constraints:
99 *   . The involved clusters form a mesh [x_size * y_size]
100 *   . The lower left involved cluster is cluster(0,0) 
101 *   . The number of threads in a cluster is the same in all clusters.
102 *
103 * Implementation note:
104 * - The quad three is implemented as a three dimensions array of node[x][y][l]
105 *   . [x][y] are the cluster coordinates / max values are (QDT_XMAX-1), (QDT_YMAX-1)
106 *   . [l] is the node level / 0 for terminal nodes / (QDT_LMAX-1) for the root node
