   -- AST_Handler Data Structures --
   ---------------------------------

   --  As noted in the private part of the spec of System.Aux_DEC, the
   --  AST_Handler type is simply a pointer to a procedure that takes
   --  a single 64bit parameter. The following is a local copy
   --  of that definition.

   --  We need our own copy because we need to get our hands on this
   --  and we cannot see the private part of System.Aux_DEC. We don't
   --  want to be a child of Aux_Dec because of complications resulting
   --  from the use of pragma Extend_System. We will use unchecked
   --  conversions between the two versions of the declarations.

   type AST_Handler is access procedure (Param : Long_Integer);

   --  However, this declaration is somewhat misleading, since the values
   --  referenced by AST_Handler values (all produced in this package by
   --  calls to Create_AST_Handler) are highly stylized.

   --  The first point is that in VMS/Alpha, procedure pointers do not in
   --  fact point to code, but rather to a 48-byte procedure descriptor.
   --  So a value of type AST_Handler is in fact a pointer to one of these
   --  48-byte descriptors.

   type Descriptor_Type is new SSE.Storage_Array (1 .. 48);
   for  Descriptor_Type'Alignment use Standard'Maximum_Alignment;
   pragma Warnings (Off, Descriptor_Type);
   --  Suppress harmless warnings about alignment.
   --  Should explain why this warning is harmless ???

   type Descriptor_Ref is access all Descriptor_Type;

   --  Normally, there is only one such descriptor for a given procedure, but
   --  it works fine to make a copy of the single allocated descriptor, and
   --  use the copy itself, and we take advantage of this in the design here.
   --  The idea is that AST_Handler values will all point to a record with the
   --  following structure:

   --  Note: When we say it works fine, there is one delicate point, which
   --  is that the code for the AST procedure itself requires the original
   --  descriptor address.  We handle this by saving the orignal descriptor
   --  address in this structure and restoring in Process_AST.

   type AST_Handler_Data is record
      Descriptor              : Descriptor_Type;
      Original_Descriptor_Ref : Descriptor_Ref;
      Taskid                  : ATID.Task_Id;
      Entryno                 : Natural;
   end record;

   type AST_Handler_Data_Ref is access all AST_Handler_Data;

   function To_AST_Handler is new Ada.Unchecked_Conversion
     (AST_Handler_Data_Ref, System.Aux_DEC.AST_Handler);

   --  Each time Create_AST_Handler is called, a new value of this record
   --  type is created, containing a copy of the procedure descriptor for
   --  the routine used to handle all AST's (Process_AST), and the Task_Id
   --  and entry number parameters identifying the task entry involved.

   --  The AST_Handler value returned is a pointer to this record. Since
   --  the record starts with the procedure descriptor, it can be used
   --  by the system in the normal way to call the procedure. But now
   --  when the procedure gets control, it can determine the address of
   --  the procedure descriptor used to call it (since the ABI specifies
   --  that this is left sitting in register r27 on entry), and then use
   --  that address to retrieve the Task_Id and entry number so that it
   --  knows on which entry to queue the AST request.

   --  The next issue is where are these records placed. Since we intend
   --  to pass pointers to these records to asynchronous system service
   --  routines, they have to be on the heap, which means we have to worry
   --  about when to allocate them and deallocate them.

   --  We solve this problem by introducing a task attribute that points to
   --  a vector, indexed by the entry number, of AST_Handler_Data records
   --  for a given task. The pointer itself is a controlled object allowing
   --  us to write a finalization routine that frees the referenced vector.

   --  An entry in this vector is either initialized (Entryno non-zero) and
   --  can be used for any subsequent reference to the same entry, or it is
   --  unused, marked by the Entryno value being zero.

   type AST_Handler_Vector is array (Natural range <>) of AST_Handler_Data;
   type AST_Handler_Vector_Ref is access all AST_Handler_Vector;

--  type AST_Vector_Ptr is new Ada.Finalization.Controlled with record
--  removed due to problem with controlled attribute, consequence is that
--  we have a memory leak if a task that has AST attribute entries is
--  terminated. ???

   type AST_Vector_Ptr is record
      Vector : AST_Handler_Vector_Ref;
   end record;

   AST_Vector_Init : AST_Vector_Ptr;
   --  Initial value, treated as constant, Vector will be null.

   package AST_Attribute is new Ada.Task_Attributes
     (Attribute     => AST_Vector_Ptr,
      Initial_Value => AST_Vector_Init);

   use AST_Attribute;

   -----------------------
   -- AST Service Queue --
   -----------------------

   --  The following global data structures are used to queue pending
   --  AST requests. When an AST is signalled, the AST service routine
   --  Process_AST is called, and it makes an entry in this structure.

   type AST_Instance is record
      Taskid  : ATID.Task_Id;
      Entryno : Natural;
      Param   : Long_Integer;
   end record;
   --  The Taskid and Entryno indicate the entry on which this AST is to
   --  be queued, and Param is the parameter provided from the AST itself.

   AST_Service_Queue_Size  : constant := 256;
   AST_Service_Queue_Limit : constant := 250;
   type AST_Service_Queue_Index is mod AST_Service_Queue_Size;
   --  Index used to refer to entries in the circular buffer which holds
   --  active AST_Instance values. The upper bound reflects the maximum
   --  number of AST instances that can be stored in the buffer. Since
   --  these entries are immediately serviced by the high priority server
   --  task that does the actual entry queuing, it is very unusual to have
   --  any significant number of entries simulaneously queued.

   AST_Service_Queue : array (AST_Service_Queue_Index) of AST_Instance;
   pragma Volatile_Components (AST_Service_Queue);
   --  The circular buffer used to store active AST requests.

   AST_Service_Queue_Put : AST_Service_Queue_Index := 0;
   AST_Service_Queue_Get : AST_Service_Queue_Index := 0;
   pragma Atomic (AST_Service_Queue_Put);
   pragma Atomic (AST_Service_Queue_Get);
   --  These two variables point to the next slots in the AST_Service_Queue
   --  to be used for putting a new entry in and taking an entry out. This
   --  is a circular buffer, so these pointers wrap around. If the two values
   --  are equal the buffer is currently empty. The pointers are atomic to
   --  ensure proper synchronization between the single producer (namely the
   --  Process_AST procedure), and the single consumer (the AST_Service_Task).

   --------------------------------
   -- AST Server Task Structures --
   --------------------------------

   --  The basic approach is that when an AST comes in, a call is made to
   --  the Process_AST procedure. It queues the request in the service queue
   --  and then wakes up an AST server task to perform the actual call to the
   --  required entry. We use this intermediate server task, since the AST
   --  procedure itself cannot wait to return, and we need some caller for
   --  the rendezvous so that we can use the normal rendezvous mechanism.

   --  It would work to have only one AST server task, but then we would lose
   --  all overlap in AST processing, and furthermore, we could get priority
   --  inversion effects resulting in starvation of AST requests.

   --  We therefore maintain a small pool of AST server tasks. We adjust
   --  the size of the pool dynamically to reflect traffic, so that we have
   --  a sufficient number of server tasks to avoid starvation.

   Max_AST_Servers : constant Natural := 16;
   --  Maximum number of AST server tasks that can be allocated

   Num_AST_Servers : Natural := 0;
   --  Number of AST server tasks currently active

   Num_Waiting_AST_Servers : Natural := 0;
   --  This is the number of AST server tasks that are either waiting for
   --  work, or just about to go to sleep and wait for work.

   Is_Waiting : array (1 .. Max_AST_Servers) of Boolean := (others => False);
   --  An array of flags showing which AST server tasks are currently waiting

   AST_Task_Ids : array (1 .. Max_AST_Servers) of ST.Task_Id;
   --  Task Id's of allocated AST server tasks

   task type AST_Server_Task (Num : Natural) is
      pragma Priority (Priority'Last);
   end AST_Server_Task;
   --  Declaration for AST server task. This task has no entries, it is
   --  controlled by sleep and wakeup calls at the task primitives level.

   --  This is the central routine for processing all AST's, it is referenced
   --  as the code address of all created AST_Handler values. See detailed
   --  description in body to understand how it works to have a single such
   --  procedure for all AST's even though it does not get any indication of
