[waffle] [PATCH v2 2/3] wcore: rework non-compatible mutex initialization

Emil Velikov emil.l.velikov at gmail.com
Tue Mar 24 09:56:16 PDT 2015


C11 does not specify a static initializer, based on the idea that the
a mutex will be platform and/or implementation dependent. As such the
alternative solution is to initialize the mutex with call_once/mtx_init.
This will allow us to remove the transition hack, and in due time move
to the system's C11 threads implementation.

v2: Actually use call_once() to prevent the possibility of multiple
threads hitting the mtx_init() at the same time. Suggested by Jose.
