Scalable RWLock 3.06

Hello,

I have updated my scalable RWLock to 3.06, in this new
version i have optimized more scalable RWLockX and scalable LW_RWLockX..


Here is what have changed...


Before, the RWLock() method looked like this:


===
procedure TRWLOCK.WLock;

var i:integer;

begin

lock.wait;

event1.resetEvent;
event2.resetEvent;

FCount3^.fcount3:=1;

repeat;
   event2.setEvent;
   asm pause end;
   event2.resetEvent;
until nbr^.nbr=0;

for i:=0 to GetSystemThreadCount-1 do
  begin
    while (FCount1^[i].fcount1<>0)
     do
      begin
       //if mysleep=0 then sleep(0);
       //else sleep(1);
      end;
  end;

end;

===


To optimize it more you have to write it like this:

==

procedure TRWLOCK.WLock;

var i:integer;

begin

lock.wait;

repeat;
   event2.setEvent;
   asm pause end;
   event2.resetEvent;
until nbr^.nbr=0;

event1.resetEvent;
//event2.resetEvent;

FCount3^.fcount3:=1;



for i:=0 to GetSystemThreadCount-1 do
  begin
    while (FCount1^[i].fcount1<>0)
     do
      begin
       //if mysleep=0 then sleep(0);
       //else sleep(1);
      end;
  end;

end;

===


Since the repeat-until block is now located before FCount3^.fcount3:=1;
so this will give better parallelism to RWLockX and LW_RWLockX.
