It turned out that DRL
implementation of hythread_monitor_init /
hythread_monitor_init_with_name initializes and acquires a monitor.

Eugeni,

Both drlvm and classlib hythread work this way.
This original hythread design that for compatibility reason  was
implemented in drlvm.

Thanks
Artem

Hi,

While investigating deadlock scenario which is described in
HARMONY-2006 I found out one interesting thing. It turned out that DRL
implementation of hythread_monitor_init /
hythread_monitor_init_with_name initializes and acquires a monitor.
Original spec reads: "Acquire and initialize a new monitor from the
threading library...." AFAIU that doesn't mean to lock the monitor but
get it from the threading library. So the hythread_monitor_init should
not lock the monitor.

Could somebody comment on that?

Thanks
Evgueni
