| 15 // This SeqLock handles only *one* writer and multiple readers. It may be | |

| 17 // readers. See: | |
| 18 // http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seqlock | |
| 19 // http://www.concurrencykit.org/doc/ck_sequence.html | |
| 20 // This implementation is based on ck_sequence.h from http://concurrencykit.org. | |
| 21 // | |
| 22 // Currently this type of lock is used in two implementations (gamepad and | |
| 23 // device motion, in particular see e.g. shared_memory_seqlock_buffer.h). | |
| 24 // It may make sense to generalize this lock to multiple writers. | |
| 25 // | |
| 26 // You must be very careful not to operate on potentially inconsistent read | |
| 27 // buffers. If the read must be retry'd, the data in the read buffer could | |
| 28 // contain any random garbage. e.g., contained pointers might be | |
| 29 // garbage, or indices could be out of range. Probably the only suitable thing | |
| 30 // to do during the read loop is to make a copy of the data, and operate on it | |
| 31 // only after the read was found to be consistent. | |
