Detailed Description

FastLock is a recursive spinlock.

Remarks:: PLACE IN PERSISTENT MEMORY (NOT CALL STACK).

Ironically, the lock's data itself must be locked. FastLock locks itself using the additional lock state BUSY. BUSY means another thread is executing inside FastLock.

Member Enumeration Documentation

anonymous enum [private]

Enumerator:

UNLOCKED
LOCKED
BUSY

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

base::FastLock::FastLock ( void ) [inline]

base::FastLock::~FastLock ( ) [inline]

Member Function Documentation

void base::FastLock::Lock ( void ) [inline]

Acquire recursive lock.

void base::FastLock::Unlock ( void ) [inline]

Release recursive lock.

bool base::FastLock::IfLocked ( void ) [inline]

Returns:: True if THIS THREAD DOES NOT OWN the lock, else false. Returns false if thread owns a lock since a thread shouldn't block itself!
