75 // to control access to a single shared resource such as an Object.
77 // A blocker is used to indicate that a Task A must be run after some
78 // set of Tasks B. For each of the Tasks B, we increment the blocker
79 // when the Task is created, and decrement it when the Task is
80 // completed. When the count goes to 0, the task A is ready to run.
82 // There are no shared read locks. We always read and write objects
83 // in predictable patterns. The purpose of the locks is to permit
84 // some flexibility for the threading system, for cases where the
85 // execution order does not matter.
87 // These tokens are only manipulated when the workqueue lock is held
88 // or when they are first created. They do not require any locking
