// thread.cc 
//	Routines to manage threads.  These are the main operations:
//
//	Fork -- create a thread to run a procedure concurrently
//		with the caller (this is done in two steps -- first
//		allocate the Thread object, then call Fork on it)
//	Begin -- called when the forked procedure starts up, to turn
//		interrupts on and clean up after last thread
//	Finish -- called when the forked procedure finishes, to clean up
//	Yield -- relinquish control over the CPU to another ready thread
//	Sleep -- relinquish control over the CPU, but thread is now blocked.
//		In other words, it will not run again, until explicitly 
//		put back on the ready queue.

// 	De-allocate a thread.

//      NOTE: if this is the main thread, we can't delete the stack

// Thread::Fork
// 	Invoke (*func)(arg), allowing caller and callee to execute

//
//	NOTE: although our definition allows only a single argument
//	to be passed to the procedure, it is possible to pass multiple
//	arguments by making them fields of a structure, and passing a pointer
//	to the structure as "arg".
//
// 	Implemented as the following steps:
//		1. Allocate a stack
//		2. Initialize the stack so that a call to SWITCH will
//		cause it to run the procedure
//		3. Put the thread on the ready queue
// 	
//	"func" is the procedure to run concurrently.
//	"arg" is a single argument to be passed to the procedure.

//
// 	NOTE: Nachos will not catch all stack overflow conditions.
//	In other words, your program may still crash because of an overflow.
//
// 	If you get bizarre results (such as seg faults where there is no code)
// 	then you *may* need to increase the stack size.  You can avoid stack
// 	overflows by not putting large data structures on the stack.
// 	Don't do this: void foo() { int bigArray[10000]; ... }

//
// 	NOTE: we can't immediately de-allocate the thread data structure 
//	or the execution stack, because we're still running in the thread 
//	and we're still on the stack!  Instead, we tell the scheduler
//	to call the destructor, once it is running in the context of a different thread.

//

//	Otherwise returns when the thread eventually works its way
//	to the front of the ready list and gets re-scheduled.
//
//	NOTE: we disable interrupts, so that looking at the thread
//	on the front of the ready list, and switching to it, can be done
//	atomically.  On return, we re-set the interrupt level to its
//	original state, in case we are called with interrupts disabled. 
//
// 	Similar to Thread::Sleep(), but a little different.

// 	Relinquish the CPU, because the current thread has either
//	finished or is blocked waiting on a synchronization 
//	variable (Semaphore, Lock, or Condition).  In the latter case,
//	eventually some thread will wake this thread up, and put it
//	back on the ready queue, so that it can be re-scheduled.
//
//	NOTE: if there are no threads on the ready queue, that means
//	we have no thread to run.  "Interrupt::Idle" is called
//	to signify that we should idle the CPU until the next I/O interrupt
//	occurs (the only thing that could cause a thread to become
//	ready to run).
//
//	NOTE: we assume interrupts are already disabled, because it
//	is called from the synchronization routines which must
//	disable interrupts for atomicity.   We need interrupts off 
//	so that there can't be a time slice between pulling the first thread
//	off the ready list, and switching to it.
