I wished there was a read-write lock in Julia but I couldn’t find any. But there are atomics so I figured I could write one myself, inspiring from this (inspiring) book on the nasty-gritty low-level details of concurrency.
Unfortunately, I can’t manage to get it right without the wait/wake functionalities provided by futexes or equivalent. By “right” I mean without potential deadlocks, and yet without busy-waiting and without sleeping.
Do these exist in julia? Or would I need to make my own system calls? Or is there already a read-write lock in the standard library that I’d have overlooked?
