SI-8131 fixes residual race condition in runtime reflection
Apparently some completers can call setInfo while they’re not yet done,
which resets the LOCKED flag, and makes anything that uses LOCKED to
track completion unreliable. Unfortunately, that’s exactly the mechanism
that was used by runtime reflection to elide locking for symbols that are
known to be initialized.
This commit fixes the problematic lock elision strategy by introducing
an explicit communication channel between SynchronizedSymbol’s and their
completers. Now instead of trying hard to infer whether it’s already
initialized or not, every symbol gets a volatile field that can be queried
to provide necessary information.
