If you have this book and a few minutes, can you turn to page 879?
Therein you find a Load_Manager. The said Load_Manager demonstrates the
proper way to requeue an entry.
Unfortunately, it looks like if someone calls Set_Load while nothing
else is queued, and in particular while there's nothing queued on
Wait_To_Retry, then the whole system will block. Nothing's queued on the
private entry that opens the only public entry.
Am I missing something? Or is this an error in that code? Particularly
since a paragraph or two later the author says "As the example
illustrates, the 'Count attribute can be used in a barrier", except he
doesn't.
TIA!
