pragma Polling (Off);
-- Turn off polling, we do not want ATC polling to take place during tasking
-- operations. It causes infinite loops and other problems.
with System.OS_Interface;
package System.Task_Primitives is
pragma Preelaborate;
type Lock is limited private;
-- Should be used for implementation of protected objects
type RTS_Lock is limited private;
-- Should be used inside the runtime system. The difference between Lock
-- and the RTS_Lock is that the later one serves only as a semaphore so
-- that do not check for ceiling violations.
type Suspension_Object is limited private;
-- Should be used for the implementation of Ada.Synchronous_Task_Control
type Task_Body_Access is access procedure;
-- Pointer to the task body's entry point (or possibly a wrapper declared
-- local to the GNARL).
type Private_Data is limited private;
-- Any information that the GNULLI needs maintained on a per-task basis.
-- A component of this type is guaranteed to be included in the
-- Ada_Task_Control_Block.
subtype Task_Address is System.Address;
-- In some versions of Task_Primitives, notably for VMS, Task_Address is
-- the short version of address defined in System.Aux_DEC. To avoid
-- dragging Aux_DEC into tasking packages a tasking specific subtype is
-- defined here.
Task_Address_Size : constant := Standard'Address_Size;
-- The size of Task_Address
Alternate_Stack_Size : constant := System.OS_Interface.Alternate_Stack_Size;

type Suspension_Object is record
State : Boolean;
pragma Atomic (State);
-- Boolean that indicates whether the object is open. This field is
-- marked Atomic to ensure that we can read its value without locking
-- the access to the Suspension_Object.
Waiting : Boolean;
-- Flag showing if there is a task already suspended on this object
L : aliased System.OS_Interface.pthread_mutex_t;
-- Protection for ensuring mutual exclusion on the Suspension_Object
CV : aliased System.OS_Interface.pthread_cond_t;
-- Condition variable used to queue threads until condition is signaled

type Private_Data is record
Thread : aliased System.OS_Interface.pthread_t;
pragma Atomic (Thread);
-- Thread field may be updated by two different threads of control.
-- (See, Enter_Task and Create_Task in s-taprop.adb). They put the same
-- value (thr_self value). We do not want to use lock on those
-- operations and the only thing we have to make sure is that they are
-- updated in atomic fashion.
LWP : aliased System.Address;
-- The purpose of this field is to provide a better tasking support on
-- gdb. The order of the two first fields (Thread and LWP) is important.
-- On targets where lwp is not relevant, this is equivalent to Thread.
CV : aliased System.OS_Interface.pthread_cond_t;
-- Should be commented ??? (in all versions of taspri)
L : aliased RTS_Lock;
-- Protection for all components is lock L
