-- This package provides necessary definitions to handle simple (i.e without
-- entries) protected objects.
-- All the routines that handle protected objects with entries have been moved
-- to two children: Entries and Operations. Note that Entries only contains
-- the type declaration and the OO primitives. This is needed to avoid
-- circular dependency.
-- This package is part of the high level tasking interface used by the
-- compiler to expand Ada 95 tasking constructs into simpler run time calls
-- (aka GNARLI, GNU Ada Run-time Library Interface)
-- Note: the compiler generates direct calls to this interface, via Rtsfind.
-- Any changes to this interface may require corresponding compiler changes
-- in exp_ch9.adb and possibly exp_ch7.adb

-- Compiler Interface (GNARLI) --
---------------------------------
-- The compiler will expand in the GNAT tree the following construct:
-- protected PO is
-- procedure P;
-- private
-- open : boolean := false;
-- end PO;
-- protected body PO is
-- procedure P is
-- ...variable declarations...
-- begin
-- ...B...
-- end P;
-- end PO;
-- as follows:
-- protected type poT is
-- procedure p;
-- private
-- open : boolean := false;
-- end poT;
-- type poTV is limited record
-- open : boolean := false;
-- _object : aliased protection;
-- end record;
-- procedure poPT__pN (_object : in out poTV);
-- procedure poPT__pP (_object : in out poTV);
-- freeze poTV [
-- procedure poTVI (_init : in out poTV) is
-- begin
-- _init.open := false;
-- object-init-proc (_init._object);
-- initialize_protection (_init._object'unchecked_access,
-- unspecified_priority);
-- return;
-- end _init_proc;
-- ]
-- po : poT;
-- poTVI (poTV!(po));
-- procedure poPT__pN (_object : in out poTV) is
-- poR : protection renames _object._object;
-- openP : boolean renames _object.open;
-- ...variable declarations...
-- begin
-- ...B...
-- return;
-- end poPT__pN;
-- procedure poPT__pP (_object : in out poTV) is

type Protected_Entry_Index is new Entry_Index

type Barrier_Function_Pointer is access
function
(O : System.Address;
E : Protected_Entry_Index)
return Boolean;
-- Pointer to a function which evaluates the barrier of a protected
-- entry body. O is a pointer to the compiler-generated record
-- representing the protected object, and E is the index of the
-- entry serviced by the body.
type Entry_Action_Pointer is access
procedure
(O : System.Address;
P : System.Address;
E : Protected_Entry_Index);
-- Pointer to a procedure which executes the sequence of statements
-- of a protected entry body. O is a pointer to the compiler-generated
-- record representing the protected object, P is a pointer to the
-- record of entry parameters, and E is the index of the
-- entry serviced by the body.
type Entry_Body is record
Barrier : Barrier_Function_Pointer;
Action : Entry_Action_Pointer;
end record;
-- The compiler-generated code passes objects of this type to the GNARL
-- to allow it to access the executable code of an entry body.
type Entry_Body_Access is access all Entry_Body;
type Protection is limited private;
-- This type contains the GNARL state of a protected object. The
-- application-defined portion of the state (i.e. private objects)
-- is maintained by the compiler-generated code.
-- Note that there are now 2 Protection types. One for the simple
-- case (no entries) and one for the general case that needs the whole
-- Finalization mechanism.
-- This split helps in the case of restricted run time where we want to
-- minimize the size of the code.
type Protection_Access is access all Protection;

procedure Initialize_Protection
(Object : Protection_Access;
Ceiling_Priority : Integer);
-- Initialize the Object parameter so that it can be used by the runtime
-- to keep track of the runtime state of a protected object.
procedure Lock (Object : Protection_Access);
-- Lock a protected object for write access. Upon return, the caller
-- owns the lock to this object, and no other call to Lock or
-- Lock_Read_Only with the same argument will return until the
-- corresponding call to Unlock has been made by the caller.
procedure Lock_Read_Only (Object : Protection_Access);
-- Lock a protected object for read access. Upon return, the caller
-- owns the lock for read access, and no other calls to Lock with the
-- same argument will return until the corresponding call to Unlock
-- has been made by the caller. Other calls to Lock_Read_Only may (but
-- need not) return before the call to Unlock, and the corresponding
-- callers will also own the lock for read access.
--
-- Note: we are not currently using this interface, it is provided
-- for possible future use. At the current time, everyone uses Lock
-- for both read and write locks.
procedure Unlock (Object : Protection_Access);
-- Relinquish ownership of the lock for the object represented by
-- the Object parameter. If this ownership was for write access, or
-- if it was for read access where there are no other read access
-- locks outstanding, one (or more, in the case of Lock_Read_Only)
-- of the tasks waiting on this lock (if any) will be given the
-- lock and allowed to return from the Lock or Lock_Read_Only call.

type Protection is record
L : aliased Task_Primitives.Lock;

Ceiling : System.Any_Priority;
-- Ceiling priority associated to the protected object
Owner : Task_Id;
-- This field contains the protected object's owner. Null_Task
-- indicates that the protected object is not currently being used.
-- This information is used for detecting the type of potentially
-- blocking operations described in the ARM 9.5.1, par. 15 (external
-- calls on a protected subprogram with the same target object as that
-- of the protected action).

-- Lock object). The compiler generates calls automatically to this
