29 * xine thread tickets.
30 * This is similar to a rw lock in "prefer writers" mode.
31 * - Shared recursive read lock: acquire () / release ()
32 * - Recursive write lock: revoke () / issue ()
33 * plus there are a few special hacks.
34 * - Low overhead temporary read unlock: renew ()
35 * (better than release () + acquire ()).
36 * Mutex less check ticket_revoked whether it is time to do so.
37 * Yes this may delay writers a bit due to multicore data cache
38 * sync issues (and your check interval, of course) but since
39 * writing is rare we accept that.
40 * Alternatively, register a revoke notify callback that stops
41 * waiting for something else.
42 * - Read lock with priority over writers: "irrevocable"
43 * (use for known quick actions only).
44 * - Top level uninterruptible write lock: "atomic".
45 * Note that the write side is for engine internal use.
46 * It now also supports turning an already held read into write
47 * temporarily.

83 * KLUDGE:
84 * - We now have 2 levels of revocation, plain and rewire.
85 * - If there is a pending rewire, ticket_revoked has the rewire flag set.
86 * - A pending or incoming rewire revoke repels plain renewers, so they
87 * can advance to a code location more suitable for a rewire, then
88 * renew again with rewire flag set.
89 * - Output layer get funcs return an emergency buffer/frame if engine is paused.
90 * Why the f**k didnt we allow NULL there??
91 * - Decoder loops let the full thing go right before next iteration. */
