AbstractQueuedSynchronizer

public abstract class AbstractQueuedSynchronizer extends Object implements Serializable
Provides a framework for implementing blocking locks and related synchronizers (semaphores, events, etc) that rely on first-in-first-out (FIFO) wait queues. This class is designed to be a useful basis for most kinds of synchronizers that rely on a single atomic int value to represent state. Subclasses must define the protected methods that change this state, and which define what that state means in terms of this object being acquired or released. Given these, the other methods in this class carry out all queuing and blocking mechanics. Subclasses can maintain other state fields, but only the atomically updated int value manipulated using methods {@link #getState}, {@link #setState} and {@link #compareAndSetState} is tracked with respect to synchronization.

Subclasses should be defined as non-public internal helper classes that are used to implement the synchronization properties of their enclosing class. Class AbstractQueuedSynchronizer does not implement any synchronization interface. Instead it defines methods such as {@link #acquireInterruptibly} that can be invoked as appropriate by concrete locks and related synchronizers to implement their public methods.

This class supports either or both a default exclusive mode and a shared mode. When acquired in exclusive mode, attempted acquires by other threads cannot succeed. Shared mode acquires by multiple threads may (but need not) succeed. This class does not "understand" these differences except in the mechanical sense that when a shared mode acquire succeeds, the next waiting thread (if one exists) must also determine whether it can acquire as well. Threads waiting in the different modes share the same FIFO queue. Usually, implementation subclasses support only one of these modes, but both can come into play for example in a {@link ReadWriteLock}. Subclasses that support only exclusive or only shared modes need not define the methods supporting the unused mode.

This class defines a nested {@link ConditionObject} class that can be used as a {@link Condition} implementation by subclasses supporting exclusive mode for which method {@link #isHeldExclusively} reports whether synchronization is exclusively held with respect to the current thread, method {@link #release} invoked with the current {@link #getState} value fully releases this object, and {@link #acquire}, given this saved state value, eventually restores this object to its previous acquired state. No AbstractQueuedSynchronizer method otherwise creates such a condition, so if this constraint cannot be met, do not use it. The behavior of {@link ConditionObject} depends of course on the semantics of its synchronizer implementation.

This class provides inspection, instrumentation, and monitoring methods for the internal queue, as well as similar methods for condition objects. These can be exported as desired into classes using an AbstractQueuedSynchronizer for their synchronization mechanics.

Serialization of this class stores only the underlying atomic integer maintaining state, so deserialized objects have empty thread queues. Typical subclasses requiring serializability will define a readObject method that restores this to a known initial state upon deserialization.

Usage

To use this class as the basis of a synchronizer, redefine the following methods, as applicable, by inspecting and/or modifying the synchronization state using {@link #getState}, {@link #setState} and/or {@link #compareAndSetState}:

  • {@link #tryAcquire}
  • {@link #tryRelease}
  • {@link #tryAcquireShared}
  • {@link #tryReleaseShared}
  • {@link #isHeldExclusively}
Each of these methods by default throws {@link UnsupportedOperationException}. Implementations of these methods must be internally thread-safe, and should in general be short and not block. Defining these methods is the only supported means of using this class. All other methods are declared final because they cannot be independently varied.

Even though this class is based on an internal FIFO queue, it does not automatically enforce FIFO acquisition policies. The core of exclusive synchronization takes the form:

Acquire:
while (!tryAcquire(arg)) {
enqueue thread if it is not already queued;
possibly block current thread;
}

Release:
if (tryRelease(arg))
unblock the first queued thread;
(Shared mode is similar but may involve cascading signals.)

Because checks in acquire are invoked before enqueuing, a newly acquiring thread may barge ahead of others that are blocked and queued. However, you can, if desired, define tryAcquire and/or tryAcquireShared to disable barging by internally invoking one or more of the inspection methods. In particular, a strict FIFO lock can define tryAcquire to immediately return false if {@link #getFirstQueuedThread} does not return the current thread. A normally preferable non-strict fair version can immediately return false only if {@link #hasQueuedThreads} returns true and getFirstQueuedThread is not the current thread; or equivalently, that getFirstQueuedThread is both non-null and not the current thread. Further variations are possible.

Throughput and scalability are generally highest for the default barging (also known as greedy, renouncement, and convoy-avoidance) strategy. While this is not guaranteed to be fair or starvation-free, earlier queued threads are allowed to recontend before later queued threads, and each recontention has an unbiased chance to succeed against incoming threads. Also, while acquires do not "spin" in the usual sense, they may perform multiple invocations of tryAcquire interspersed with other computations before blocking. This gives most of the benefits of spins when exclusive synchronization is only briefly held, without most of the liabilities when it isn't. If so desired, you can augment this by preceding calls to acquire methods with "fast-path" checks, possibly prechecking {@link #hasContended} and/or {@link #hasQueuedThreads} to only do so if the synchronizer is likely not to be contended.

This class provides an efficient and scalable basis for synchronization in part by specializing its range of use to synchronizers that can rely on int state, acquire, and release parameters, and an internal FIFO wait queue. When this does not suffice, you can build synchronizers from a lower level using {@link java.util.concurrent.atomic atomic} classes, your own custom {@link java.util.Queue} classes, and {@link LockSupport} blocking support.

Usage Examples

Here is a non-reentrant mutual exclusion lock class that uses the value zero to represent the unlocked state, and one to represent the locked state. It also supports conditions and exposes one of the instrumentation methods:

class Mutex implements Lock, java.io.Serializable {

// Our internal helper class
private static class Sync extends AbstractQueuedSynchronizer {
// Report whether in locked state
protected boolean isHeldExclusively() {
return getState() == 1;
}

// Acquire the lock if state is zero
public boolean tryAcquire(int acquires) {
assert acquires == 1; // Otherwise unused
return compareAndSetState(0, 1);
}

// Release the lock by setting state to zero
protected boolean tryRelease(int releases) {
assert releases == 1; // Otherwise unused
if (getState() == 0) throw new IllegalMonitorStateException();
setState(0);
return true;
}

// Provide a Condition
Condition newCondition() { return new ConditionObject(); }

// Deserialize properly
private void readObject(ObjectInputStream s) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
s.defaultReadObject();
setState(0); // reset to unlocked state
}
}

// The sync object does all the hard work. We just forward to it.
private final Sync sync = new Sync();

public void lock() { sync.acquire(1); }
public boolean tryLock() { return sync.tryAcquire(1); }
public void unlock() { sync.release(1); }
public Condition newCondition() { return sync.newCondition(); }
public boolean isLocked() { return sync.isHeldExclusively(); }
public boolean hasQueuedThreads() { return sync.hasQueuedThreads(); }
public void lockInterruptibly() throws InterruptedException {
sync.acquireInterruptibly(1);
}
public boolean tryLock(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) throws InterruptedException {
return sync.tryAcquireNanos(1, unit.toNanos(timeout));
}
}

Here is a latch class that is like a {@link CountDownLatch} except that it only requires a single signal to fire. Because a latch is non-exclusive, it uses the shared acquire and release methods.

class BooleanLatch {

private static class Sync extends AbstractQueuedSynchronizer {
boolean isSignalled() { return getState() != 0; }

protected int tryAcquireShared(int ignore) {
return isSignalled()? 1 : -1;
}

protected boolean tryReleaseShared(int ignore) {
setState(1);
return true;
}
}

private final Sync sync = new Sync();
public boolean isSignalled() { return sync.isSignalled(); }
public void signal() { sync.releaseShared(1); }
public void await() throws InterruptedException {
sync.acquireSharedInterruptibly(1);
}
}

Tail of the wait queue, lazily initialized. Modified only via method enq to add new wait node.
private volatile int

The synchronization state.
private static final Unsafe
unsafe
Setup to support compareAndSet. We need to natively implement this here: For the sake of permitting future enhancements, we cannot explicitly subclass AtomicInteger, which would be efficient and useful otherwise. So, as the lesser of evils, we natively implement using hotspot intrinsics API. And while we are at it, we do the same for other CASable fields (which could otherwise be done with atomic field updaters).

Implemented by first checking interrupt status, then invoking at least once {@link #tryAcquire}, returning on success. Otherwise, the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking {@link #tryAcquire} until success or the thread is interrupted or the timeout elapses. This method can be used to implement method {@link Lock#tryLock(long, TimeUnit)}.
