LemonBoy	566adc2510	std: Swap arguments in Thread.spawn ... Beside the new order being consistent with the ThreadPool API and making more sense, this shuffling allows to write the context argument type in terms of the startFn arguments, reducing the use of anytype (eg. less explicit casts when using comptime_int parameters, yay). Sorry for the breakage. Closes #8082	2021-02-28 14:03:19 +01:00
Andrew Kelley	a9667b5a85	organize std lib concurrency primitives and add RwLock ... * move concurrency primitives that always operate on kernel threads to the std.Thread namespace * remove std.SpinLock. Nobody should use this in a non-freestanding environment; the other primitives are always preferable. In freestanding, it will be necessary to put custom spin logic in there, so there are no use cases for a std lib version. * move some std lib files to the top level fields convention * add std.Thread.spinLoopHint * add std.Thread.Condition * add std.Thread.Semaphore * new implementation of std.Thread.Mutex for Windows and non-pthreads Linux * add std.Thread.RwLock Implementations provided by @kprotty	2021-01-14 20:41:37 -07:00
