Never lock a lock unless abort is deferred. -- . Never undefer abort while holding a lock. -- . Overlapping critical sections must be properly nested, -- and locks must be released in LIFO order. -- e.g., the following is not allowed: -- Lock (X); -- ... -- Lock (Y); -- ... -- Unlock (X); -- ... -- Unlock (Y); -- Locks with lower (smaller) level number cannot be locked -- while holding a lock with a higher level number. (The level -- number is the number at the left.) -- 1. System.Tasking.PO_Simple.Protection.L (any PO lock) -- 2. System.Tasking.Initialization.Global_Task_Lock (in body) -- 3. System.Task_Primitives.Operations.Single_RTS_Lock -- 4. System.Tasking.Ada_Task_Control_Block.LL.L (any TCB lock) -- Clearly, there can be no circular chain of hold-and-wait -- relationships involving locks in different ordering levels. -- We used to have Global_Task_Lock before Protection.L but this was -- clearly wrong since there can be calls to "new" inside protected -- operations. The new ordering prevents these failures. -- Sometimes we need to hold two ATCB locks at the same time. To allow -- us to order the locking, each ATCB is given a unique serial -- number. If one needs to hold locks on several ATCBs at once, -- the locks with lower serial numbers must be locked first. -- We don't always need to check the serial numbers, since -- the serial numbers are assigned sequentially, and so: -- . The parent of a task always has a lower serial number. -- . The activator of a task always has a lower serial number. -- . The environment task has a lower serial number than any other task. -- . If the activator of a task is different from the task's parent, -- the parent always has a lower serial number than the activator. --------------------------------- -- Task_Id related definitions -- --------------------------------- type Ada_Task_Control_Block; type Task_Id is access all Ada_Task_Control_Block; Null_Task : constant Task_Id; type Task_List is array (Positive range <>) of Task_Id; function Self return Task_Id; pragma Inline (Self); -- This is the compiler interface version of this function.
