Introduce an RCU lock implementation as an alternative locking mechanism
to openssl. The api is documented in the ossl_rcu.pod
file
Read side implementaiton is comparable to that of RWLOCKS:
ossl_rcu_read_lock(lock);
<
critical section in which data can be accessed via
ossl_derefrence
>
ossl_rcu_read_unlock(lock);
Write side implementation is:
ossl_rcu_write_lock(lock);
<
critical section in which data can be updated via
ossl_assign_pointer
and stale data can optionally be scheduled for removal
via ossl_rcu_call
>
ossl_rcu_write_unlock(lock);
...
ossl_synchronize_rcu(lock);
