/*
 * Big Theory Statement for readers/writer locking primitives.
 *
 * An rwlock provides exclusive access to a single thread ("writer") or
 * concurrent access to multiple threads ("readers").  See rwlock(9F)
 * for a full description of the interfaces and programming model.
 * The rest of this comment describes the implementation.
 *
 * An rwlock is a single word with the following structure:
 *
 *	---------------------------------------------------------------------
 *	| OWNER (writer) or HOLD COUNT (readers)   | WRLOCK | WRWANT | WAIT |
 *	---------------------------------------------------------------------
 *			63 / 31 .. 3			2	1	0
 *
 * The waiters bit (0) indicates whether any threads are blocked waiting
 * for the lock.  The write-wanted bit (1) indicates whether any threads
 * are blocked waiting for write access.  The write-locked bit (2) indicates
 * whether the lock is held by a writer, which determines whether the upper
 * bits (3..31 in ILP32, 3..63 in LP64) should be interpreted as the owner
 * (thread pointer) or the hold count (number of readers).
 *
 * In the absence of any contention, a writer gets the lock by setting
 * this word to (curthread | RW_WRITE_LOCKED); a reader gets the lock
 * by incrementing the hold count (i.e. adding 8, aka RW_READ_LOCK).
 *
 * A writer will fail to acquire the lock if any other thread owns it.
 * A reader will fail if the lock is either owned or wanted by a writer.
 * rw_tryenter() returns 0 in these cases; rw_enter() blocks until the
 * lock becomes available.
 *
 * When a thread blocks it acquires the rwlock's hashed turnstile lock and
 * attempts to set RW_HAS_WAITERS (and RW_WRITE_WANTED in the writer case)
 * atomically *only if the lock still appears busy*.  A thread must never
 * accidentally block for an available lock since there would be no owner
 * to awaken it.  casip() provides the required atomicity.  Once casip()
 * succeeds, the decision to block becomes final and irreversible.  The
 * thread will not become runnable again until it has been granted ownership
 * of the lock via direct handoff from a former owner as described below.
 *
 * In the absence of any waiters, rw_exit() just clears the lock (if it
 * is write-locked) or decrements the hold count (if it is read-locked).
 * Note that even if waiters are present, decrementing the hold count
 * to a non-zero value requires no special action since the lock is still
 * held by at least one other thread.
 *
 * On the "final exit" (transition to unheld state) of a lock with waiters,
 * rw_exit_wakeup() grabs the turnstile lock and transfers ownership directly
 * to the next writer or set of readers.  There are several advantages to this
 * approach: (1) it closes all windows for priority inversion (when a new
 * writer has grabbed the lock but has not yet inherited from blocked readers);
 * (2) it prevents starvation of equal-priority threads by granting the lock
 * in FIFO order; (3) it eliminates the need for a write-wanted count -- a
 * single bit suffices because the lock remains held until all waiting
 * writers are gone; (4) when we awaken N readers we can perform a single
 * "atomic_add(&x, N)" to set the total hold count rather than having all N
 * threads fight for the cache to perform an "atomic_add(&x, 1)" upon wakeup.
 *
 * The most interesting policy decision in rw_exit_wakeup() is which thread
 * to wake.  Starvation is always possible with priority-based scheduling,
 * but any sane wakeup policy should at least satisfy these requirements:
 *
 * (1) The highest-priority thread in the system should not starve.
 * (2) The highest-priority writer should not starve.
 * (3) No writer should starve due to lower-priority threads.
 * (4) No reader should starve due to lower-priority writers.
 * (5) If all threads have equal priority, none of them should starve.
 *
 * We used to employ a writers-always-win policy, which doesn't even
 * satisfy (1): a steady stream of low-priority writers can starve out
 * a real-time reader!  This is clearly a broken policy -- it violates
 * (1), (4), and (5) -- but it's how rwlocks always used to behave.
 *
 * A round-robin policy (exiting readers grant the lock to blocked writers
 * and vice versa) satisfies all but (3): a single high-priority writer
 * and many low-priority readers can starve out medium-priority writers.
 *
 * A strict priority policy (grant the lock to the highest priority blocked
 * thread) satisfies everything but (2): a steady stream of high-priority
 * readers can permanently starve the highest-priority writer.
 *
 * The reason we care about (2) is that it's important to process writers
 * reasonably quickly -- even if they're low priority -- because their very
 * presence causes all readers to take the slow (blocking) path through this
 * code.  There is also a general sense that writers deserve some degree of
 * deference because they're updating the data upon which all readers act.
 * Presumably this data should not be allowed to become arbitrarily stale
 * due to writer starvation.  Finally, it seems reasonable to level the
 * playing field a bit to compensate for the fact that it's so much harder
 * for a writer to get in when there are already many readers present.
 *
 * A hybrid of round-robin and strict priority can be made to satisfy
 * all five criteria.  In this "writer priority policy" exiting readers
 * always grant the lock to waiting writers, but exiting writers only
 * grant the lock to readers of the same or higher priority than the
 * highest-priority blocked writer.  Thus requirement (2) is satisfied,
 * necessarily, by a willful act of priority inversion: an exiting reader
 * will grant the lock to a blocked writer even if there are blocked
 * readers of higher priority.  The situation is mitigated by the fact
 * that writers always inherit priority from blocked readers, and the
 * writer will awaken those readers as soon as it exits the lock.
 *
 * rw_downgrade() follows the same wakeup policy as an exiting writer.
 *
 * rw_tryupgrade() has the same failure mode as rw_tryenter() for a
 * write lock.  Both honor the WRITE_WANTED bit by specification.
 *
 * The following rules apply to manipulation of rwlock internal state:
 *
 * (1) The rwlock is only modified via the atomic primitives casip()
 *     and atomic_add_ip().
 *
 * (2) The waiters bit and write-wanted bit are only modified under
 *     turnstile_lookup().  This ensures that the turnstile is consistent
 *     with the rwlock.
 *
 * (3) Waiters receive the lock by direct handoff from the previous
 *     owner.  Therefore, waiters *always* wake up holding the lock.
