113 * This structure defines a thread descriptor.
114 * It is used for both the user threads and the kernel threads.
115 * In a process, a user thread is identified by a unique TRDID (thread identifier):
116 * - The TRDID 16 LSB bits contain the LTID (Local Thread Index).
117 * - The TRDID 16 MSB bits contain the CXY of cluster containing the thread.
118 * The main thread LTID value is always 0.
119 * The LTID is used to index the th_tbl[] array in the local process descriptor.
120 * This TRDID is computed by the process_register_thread() function, when the user
121 * thread is registered in the local copy of the process descriptor.
122 *
123 * WARNING (1) Don't modify the first 4 fields order, as this order is used by the
124 *             hal_kentry assembly code for some architectures (TSAR).
125 *
126 * WARNING (2) Most of the thread state is private and accessed only by this thread,
127 *             but some fields are shared, and can be modified by other threads.
128 *             - the "blocked" bit_vector can be modified by another thread
129 *               running in another cluster (using atomic instructions),
130 *               to change this thread scheduling status.
131 *             - the "flags" bit_vector can be modified by another thread
132 *               running in another cluster (using atomic instructions),
133 *               to register requests such as ACK or DELETE.
134 *             - the "join_xp" field can be modified by the joining thread,
135 *               and this rendez-vous is protected by the dedicated "join_lock".
136 *
137 * WARNING (3) When this thread is blocked on a shared resource (queuelock, condvar,
138 *             or chdev), it registers in the associated waiting queue, using the
139 *             "wait_list" (local list) or "wait_xlist" (trans-cluster list) fields.
