// ParkingLot is an internal API for building efficient synchronization // primitives like mutexes and events. // // The API and name is inspired by WebKit's WTF::ParkingLot, which in turn // is inspired Linux's futex API. // See https://webkit.org/blog/6161/locking-in-webkit/. // // The core functionality is an atomic "compare-and-sleep" operation along with // an atomic "wake-up" operation. #ifndef Py_INTERNAL_PARKING_LOT_H #define Py_INTERNAL_PARKING_LOT_H #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif #ifndef Py_BUILD_CORE # error "this header requires Py_BUILD_CORE define" #endif enum { // The thread was unparked by another thread.
