ptw32_rwlock_check_need_init (pthread_rwlock_t * rwlock)
46
* The following guarded test is specifically for statically
47
* initialised rwlocks (via PTHREAD_RWLOCK_INITIALIZER).
49
* Note that by not providing this synchronisation we risk
50
* introducing race conditions into applications which are
55
* We know that static rwlocks will not be PROCESS_SHARED
56
* so we can serialise access to internal state using
57
* Win32 Critical Sections rather than Win32 Mutexes.
59
* If using a single global lock slows applications down too much,
60
* multiple global locks could be created and hashed on some random
61
* value associated with each mutex, the pointer perhaps. At a guess,
62
* a good value for the optimal number of global locks might be
63
* the number of processors + 1.

EnterCriticalSection (&ptw32_rwlock_test_init_lock);
69
* We got here possibly under race
70
* conditions. Check again inside the critical section
71
* and only initialise if the rwlock is valid (not been destroyed).
72
* If a static rwlock has been destroyed, the application can
73
* re-initialise it only by calling pthread_rwlock_init()
76
if (*rwlock == PTHREAD_RWLOCK_INITIALIZER)
78
result = pthread_rwlock_init (rwlock, NULL);
80
else if (*rwlock == NULL)
83
* The rwlock has been destroyed while we were waiting to
84
* initialise it, so the operation that caused the
85
* auto-initialisation should fail.
