/***********************************************************************
 * Thread-safety during class initialization (GrP 2001-9-24)
 *
 * Initial state: CLS_INITIALIZING and CLS_INITIALIZED both clear. 
 * During initialization: CLS_INITIALIZING is set
 * After initialization: CLS_INITIALIZING clear and CLS_INITIALIZED set.
 * CLS_INITIALIZING and CLS_INITIALIZED are never set at the same time.
 * CLS_INITIALIZED is never cleared once set.
 *
 * Only one thread is allowed to actually initialize a class and send 
 * +initialize. Enforced by allowing only one thread to set CLS_INITIALIZING.
 *
 * Additionally, threads trying to send messages to a class must wait for 
 * +initialize to finish. During initialization of a class, that class's 
 * method cache is kept empty. objc_msgSend will revert to 
 * class_lookupMethodAndLoadCache, which checks CLS_INITIALIZED before 
 * messaging. If CLS_INITIALIZED is clear but CLS_INITIALIZING is set, 
 * the thread must block, unless it is the thread that started 
 * initializing the class in the first place. 
 *
 * Each thread keeps a list of classes it's initializing. 
 * The global classInitLock is used to synchronize changes to CLS_INITIALIZED 
 * and CLS_INITIALIZING: the transition to CLS_INITIALIZING must be 
 * an atomic test-and-set with respect to itself and the transition 
 * to CLS_INITIALIZED.
 * The global classInitWaitCond is used to block threads waiting for an 
 * initialization to complete. The classInitLock synchronizes
 * condition checking and the condition variable.
 **********************************************************************/

/***********************************************************************
 *  +initialize deadlock case when a class is marked initializing while 
 *  its superclass is initialized. Solved by completely initializing 
 *  superclasses before beginning to initialize a class.
 *
 *  OmniWeb class hierarchy:
 *                 OBObject 
 *                     |    ` OBPostLoader
 *                 OFObject
 *                 /     \
 *      OWAddressEntry  OWController
 *                        | 
 *                      OWConsoleController
 *
 *  Thread 1 (evil testing thread):
 *    initialize OWAddressEntry
 *    super init OFObject
 *    super init OBObject                    
 *    [OBObject initialize] runs OBPostLoader, which inits lots of classes...
 *    initialize OWConsoleController
 *    super init OWController - wait for Thread 2 to finish OWController init
 *
 *  Thread 2 (normal OmniWeb thread):
 *    initialize OWController
 *    super init OFObject - wait for Thread 1 to finish OFObject init
 *
 *  deadlock!
 *
 *  Solution: fully initialize super classes before beginning to initialize 
 *  a subclass. Then the initializing+initialized part of the class hierarchy
 *  will be a contiguous subtree starting at the root, so other threads 
 *  can't jump into the middle between two initializing classes, and we won't 
 *  get stuck while a superclass waits for its subclass which waits for the 
 *  superclass.
