/*
 * Audisp uses a single-producer / single-consumer ring buffer to pass events
 * from the auditd main thread to the audisp dispatcher thread. The producer is
 * enqueue(), which runs on the same libev thread that handles SIGHUP and sets
 * need_queue_depth_change. Note that the libev thread multiplexes the netlink
 * and network originating events. The consumer is dequeue(), which runs on
 * the dispatcher thread; that same dispatcher thread is also the only thread
 * that calls increase_queue_depth(). The transient config-loading thread never
 * touches the queue.
 *
 * The queue's normal producer/consumer synchronization is driven by the
 * semaphore below. enqueue() stores the event in the ring and then posts the
 * semaphore; dequeue() waits on that semaphore before reading the next entry.
 * Because only one thread advances q_next and only one thread advances q_last,
 * the indices need only atomic load/store operations in the steady state.
 *
 * A resize needs additional synchronization because the resizer must copy the
 * live entries out of the old array and then free that array while enqueue()
 * may be trying to publish another event. The semaphore does not help there:
 * it orders producer vs. consumer visibility of queued events, but it does not
 * prevent the producer from writing into the old ring while the dispatcher is
 * copying or freeing it.
 *
 * To make the grow path race-free, enqueue() and increase_queue_depth() use a
 * two-flag handshake. enqueue() first stores enqueue_in_progress = 1 and then
 * loads processing_suspended. increase_queue_depth() first stores
 * processing_suspended = 1 and then loads enqueue_in_progress until it sees 0.
 * Under HAVE_ATOMIC both operations use memory_order_seq_cst so the C11 memory
 * model gives them one total order. That total order rules out the bad case
 * where enqueue() misses processing_suspended while increase_queue_depth()
 * simultaneously misses enqueue_in_progress: at least one side must observe the
 * other side's store and back off. Once the resizer sees
 * enqueue_in_progress == 0 after publishing processing_suspended == 1, no
 * producer is still writing into the old array, so the copy and free are safe.
 *
 * The spin in increase_queue_depth() is bounded. enqueue_in_progress only spans
 * the tiny critical section that stores an event pointer, advances q_next,
 * updates accounting, optionally mirrors the event to the persistence file, and
 * posts the semaphore. It does not include any allocation or retry loop, so in
 * practice the dispatcher spins for at most a few instructions or a brief
 * sched_yield().
 *
 * The old queue_lock mutex was removed because it never serialized the real
 * producer/resizer race. There is only one resizer, since the dispatcher thread
 * alone calls increase_queue_depth(), and higher-level reconfiguration already
 * ensures only one config thread runs at a time via config_lock. A separate
 * resize mutex therefore provided no useful protection.
