+ * spin.h
+ * Hardware-independent implementation of spinlocks.
+ *
+ *
+ * The hardware-independent interface to spinlocks is defined by the
+ * typedef "slock_t" and these macros:
+ *
+ * void SpinLockInit(volatile slock_t *lock)
+ * Initialize a spinlock (to the unlocked state).
+ *
+ * void SpinLockAcquire(volatile slock_t *lock)
+ * Acquire a spinlock, waiting if necessary.
+ * Time out and abort() if unable to acquire the lock in a
+ * "reasonable" amount of time --- typically ~ 1 minute.
+ *
+ * void SpinLockRelease(volatile slock_t *lock)
+ * Unlock a previously acquired lock.
+ *
+ * bool SpinLockFree(slock_t *lock)
+ * Tests if the lock is free. Returns true if free, false if locked.
+ * This does *not* change the state of the lock.
+ *
+ * Callers must beware that the macro argument may be evaluated multiple
+ * times!
+ *
+ * Load and store operations in calling code are guaranteed not to be
+ * reordered with respect to these operations, because they include a
+ * compiler barrier. (Before PostgreSQL 9.5, callers needed to use a
+ * volatile qualifier to access data protected by spinlocks.)
+ *
+ * Keep in mind the coding rule that spinlocks must not be held for more
+ * than a few instructions. In particular, we assume it is not possible
+ * for a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to occur while holding a spinlock, and so
+ * it is not necessary to do HOLD/RESUME_INTERRUPTS() in these macros.
+ *
+ * These macros are implemented in terms of hardware-dependent macros
+ * supplied by s_lock.h. There is not currently any extra functionality
+ * added by this header, but there has been in the past and may someday
+ * be again.
