There are several problems with the current annotations (AnnotateRWLockCreate and friends):
- they don't fully support deadlock detection (we need a hook _before_ mutex lock)
- they don't support insertion of random artificial delays to perturb execution (again we need a hook _before_ mutex lock)
- they don't support setting extended mutex attributes like read/write reentrancy (only "linker init" was bolted on)
- they don't support setting mutex attributes if a mutex don't have a "constructor" (e.g. static, Java, Go mutexes)
- they don't ignore synchronization inside of lock/unlock operations which leads to slowdown and false negatives
The new annotations solve of the above problems. See tsan_interface.h for the interface specification and comments.
