// This header file contains the macro definitions for thread safety
// annotations that allow the developers to document the locking policies
// of their multi-threaded code. The annotations can also help program
// analysis tools to identify potential thread safety issues.
//
// The annotations are implemented using GCC's "attributes" extension.
// Using the macros defined here instead of the raw GCC attributes allows
// for portability and future compatibility.
//
// This functionality is not yet fully implemented in perftools,
// but may be one day.

// Document if a shared variable/field needs to be protected by a lock.
// GUARDED_BY allows the user to specify a particular lock that should be

// indicates a shared variable should be guarded (by any lock). GUARDED_VAR
// is primarily used when the client cannot express the name of the lock.

// could itself be a shared variable. For example, if a shared global pointer
// q, which is guarded by mu1, points to a shared memory location that is
// guarded by mu2, q should be annotated as follows:
