Review request for mesos, Benjamin Hindman, Joris Van Remoortere, and Neil
Conway.
Changes
-------
Rebase.
Bugs: MESOS-3864
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3864
Repository: mesos
Description
-------
* Renamed `initialized` to `initialize_started`.
* Renamed `initializing` to `initialize_complete`.
* Removed the (2) condition, described below:
The initialization synchronization logic contains three conditions, which check:
1) Was `initialize` called and is it done?
2) Was `initialize` called and is it not done?
3) Are you the first to call `initialize`?
Condition (3) uses `compare_exchange_strong` between `initialized` and `false`.
This returns `true` (and sets `initialized` to true) iff the caller is the
first to reach that expression.
The second simultaneous caller of `initialize` will either satisify condition
(2) or (3) and then wait on `initializing`. For the second caller, (2) and (3)
are identical because `compare_exchange_strong` between `true` and `false` will
always return false, thereby putting the second caller into the waiting loop.
Diffs (updated)

Testing
-------
`make check`
Replaced `process::initialize();` in `3rdparty/libprocess/src/tests/main.cpp`
with:
```
const size_t numThreads = 50;
std::thread* runningThreads[numThreads];
// Create additional threads.
for (size_t i = 0; i < numThreads; i++) {
runningThreads[i] = new std::thread([]() {
process::initialize();
});
}
for (size_t i = 0; i < numThreads; i++) {
runningThreads[i]->join();
delete runningThreads[i];
}
```
(Also added `#include <thread>` to the header).
Rebuilt `libprocess-tests` with the modification and ran it a few times.
`3rdparty/libprocess/libprocess-tests`
Thanks,
