Subject: What's the purpose of the __vm_lock?
Hello,
I'm a little confused about the usefulness of __vm_lock. It seems like that __vm_lock was originally cited to prevent the data race condition between pthread_barrier_wait and virtual memory changing, but it can not ensure that the virtual memory of the barrier will not be changed before pthread_barrier_wait. So, what is the meaning that introduce the __vm_lock to prevent the data race?
Thank you.
