- // Baselib_ReentrantLock
- // In computer science, the reentrant mutex (recursive mutex, recursive lock) is particular type of mutual exclusion (mutex) device that may be locked multiple
- // times by the same process/thread, without causing a deadlock.
- // While any attempt to perform the "lock" operation on an ordinary mutex (lock) would either fail or block when the mutex is already locked, on a recursive
- // mutex this operation will succeed if and only if the locking thread is the one that already holds the lock. Typically, a recursive mutex tracks the number
- // of times it has been locked, and requires equally many unlock operations to be performed before other threads may lock it.

- // If there are not enough system resources to create a lock, process abort is triggered.

- // For optimal performance, the returned Baselib_ReentrantLock should be stored at a cache aligned memory location.
- //
- // \returns A struct representing a lock instance. Use Baselib_ReentrantLock_Free to free the lock.
