// synch.cc 
//	Routines for synchronizing threads.  Three kinds of
//	synchronization routines are defined here: semaphores, locks 
//   	and condition variables.
//
// Any implementation of a synchronization routine needs some
// primitive atomic operation.  We assume Nachos is running on
// a uniprocessor, and thus atomicity can be provided by
// turning off interrupts.  While interrupts are disabled, no
// context switch can occur, and thus the current thread is guaranteed
// to hold the CPU throughout, until interrupts are reenabled.
//
// Because some of these routines might be called with interrupts
// already disabled (Semaphore::V for one), instead of turning
// on interrupts at the end of the atomic operation, we always simply
// re-set the interrupt state back to its original value (whether
// that be disabled or enabled).
//
// Once we'e implemented one set of higher level atomic operations,
// we can implement others using that implementation.  We illustrate
// this by implementing locks and condition variables on top of 
// semaphores, instead of directly enabling and disabling interrupts.
//
// Locks are implemented using a semaphore to keep track of
// whether the lock is held or not -- a semaphore value of 0 means
// the lock is busy; a semaphore value of 1 means the lock is free.
//
// The implementation of condition variables using semaphores is
// a bit trickier, as explained below under Condition::Wait.
