122 // This is fairly nasty.  We allow multiple threads to run on the same
123 // context, and we do not require any locking semantics in doing so -
124 // clients of the API may simply use the context from multiple threads
125 // concurently, and assume this will work.  In order to make this work,
126 // We lock the context when a thread enters, and unlock it when it leaves.
127 // However we do not only unlock when the thread returns from its
128 // entry point (evaluate script or call function), we also unlock the
129 // context if the thread leaves JSC by making a call out to an external
130 // function through a callback.
131 //
132 // All threads using the context share the same JS stack (the RegisterFile).
133 // Whenever a thread calls into JSC it starts using the RegisterFile from the
134 // previous 'high water mark' - the maximum point the stack has ever grown to
135 // (returned by RegisterFile::end()).  So if a first thread calls out to a
136 // callback, and a second thread enters JSC, then also exits by calling out
137 // to a callback, we can be left with stackframes from both threads in the
138 // RegisterFile.  As such, a problem may occur should the first thread's
139 // callback complete first, and attempt to return to JSC.  Were we to allow
140 // this to happen, and were its stack to grow further, then it may potentially
141 // write over the second thread's call frames.
142 //
143 // In avoid JS stack corruption we enforce a policy of only ever allowing two
144 // threads to use a JS context concurrently, and only allowing the second of
145 // these threads to execute until it has completed and fully returned from its
146 // outermost call into JSC.  We enforce this policy using 'lockDropDepth'.  The
147 // first time a thread exits it will call DropAllLocks - which will do as expected
148 // and drop locks allowing another thread to enter.  Should another thread, or the
149 // same thread again, enter JSC (through evaluate script or call function), and exit
150 // again through a callback, then the locks will not be dropped when DropAllLocks
151 // is called (since lockDropDepth is non-zero).  Since this thread is still holding
152 // the locks, only it will re able to re-enter JSC (either be returning from the
153 // callback, or by re-entering through another call to evaulate script or call
154 // function).
155 //
156 // This policy is slightly more restricive than it needs to be for correctness -
157 // we could validly allow futher entries into JSC from other threads, we only
158 // need ensure that callbacks return in the reverse chronological order of the
159 // order in which they were made - though implementing the less restrictive policy
160 // would likely increase complexity and overhead.
