32 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
34 -- This package provides overall initialization of the tasking portion of the
35 -- RTS. This package must be elaborated before any tasking features are used.
37 package System.Tasking.Initialization is
39 procedure Remove_From_All_Tasks_List (T : Task_Id);
40 -- Remove T from All_Tasks_List. Call this function with RTS_Lock taken
42 ---------------------------------
43 -- Tasking-Specific Soft Links --
44 ---------------------------------
46 -- These permit us to leave out certain portions of the tasking
47 -- run-time system if they are not used. They are only used internally
48 -- by the tasking run-time system.
50 -- So far, the only example is support for Ada.Task_Attributes
52 type Proc_T is access procedure (T : Task_Id);
54 procedure Finalize_Attributes (T : Task_Id);
55 procedure Initialize_Attributes (T : Task_Id);
57 Finalize_Attributes_Link : Proc_T := Finalize_Attributes'Access;
58 -- should be called with abort deferred and T.L write-locked
60 Initialize_Attributes_Link : Proc_T := Initialize_Attributes'Access;
61 -- should be called with abort deferred, but holding no locks
63 -------------------------
64 -- Abort Defer/Undefer --
65 -------------------------
67 -- Defer_Abort defers the affects of low-level abort and priority change
68 -- in the calling task until a matching Undefer_Abort call is executed.
70 -- Undefer_Abort DOES MORE than just undo the effects of one call to
71 -- Defer_Abort. It is the universal "polling point" for deferred
72 -- processing, including the following:
74 -- 1) base priority changes
76 -- 2) abort/ATC
78 -- Abort deferral MAY be nested (Self_ID.Deferral_Level is a count), but
79 -- to avoid waste and undetected errors, it generally SHOULD NOT be
80 -- nested. The symptom of over-deferring abort is that an exception may
81 -- fail to be raised, or an abort may fail to take place.
83 -- Therefore, there are two sets of the inlinable defer/undefer routines,
84 -- which are the ones to be used inside GNARL. One set allows nesting. The
85 -- other does not. People who maintain the GNARL should try to avoid using
86 -- the nested versions, or at least look very critically at the places
87 -- where they are used.
89 -- In general, any GNARL call that is potentially blocking, or whose
90 -- semantics require that it sometimes raise an exception, or that is
91 -- required to be an abort completion point, must be made with abort
92 -- Deferral_Level = 1.
94 -- In general, non-blocking GNARL calls, which may be made from inside a
95 -- protected action, are likely to need to allow nested abort deferral.
97 -- With some critical exceptions (which are supposed to be documented),
98 -- internal calls to the tasking runtime system assume abort is already
99 -- deferred, and do not modify the deferral level.
101 -- There is also a set of non-linable defer/undefer routines, for direct
102 -- call from the compiler. These are not in-lineable because they may need
103 -- to be called via pointers ("soft links"). For the sake of efficiency,
104 -- the version with Self_ID as parameter should used wherever possible.
105 -- These are all nestable.
107 -- Non-nestable inline versions

125 -- necessary pending actions (e.g. abort, priority change). This procedure
126 -- is usually called when needed as a result of calling Undefer_Abort,

128 -- to force execution of pending actions.

159 procedure Final_Task_Unlock (Self_ID : Task_Id);
160 -- This version is only for use in Terminate_Task, when the task is
161 -- relinquishing further rights to its own ATCB. There is a very
162 -- interesting potential race condition there, where the old task may run
163 -- concurrently with a new task that is allocated the old tasks (now
164 -- reused) ATCB. The critical thing here is to not make any reference to
165 -- the ATCB after the lock is released. See also comments on
166 -- Terminate_Task and Unlock.

184 -- complete.
