11     * A synchronization aid that allows one or more threads to wait until
12     * a set of operations being performed in other threads completes.
13     *
14     * <p>A {@code CountDownLatch} is initialized with a given <em>count</em>.
15     * The {@link #await await} methods block until the current count reaches
16     * zero due to invocations of the {@link #countDown} method, after which
17     * all waiting threads are released and any subsequent invocations of
18     * {@link #await await} return immediately. This is a one-shot phenomenon
19     * -- the count cannot be reset. If you need a version that resets the
20     * count, consider using a {@link CyclicBarrier}.
21     *
22     * <p>A {@code CountDownLatch} is a versatile synchronization tool
23     * and can be used for a number of purposes. A
24     * {@code CountDownLatch} initialized with a count of one serves as a
25     * simple on/off latch, or gate: all threads invoking {@link #await await}
26     * wait at the gate until it is opened by a thread invoking {@link
27     * #countDown}. A {@code CountDownLatch} initialized to <em>N</em>
28     * can be used to make one thread wait until <em>N</em> threads have
29     * completed some action, or some action has been completed N times.
30     *
31     * <p>A useful property of a {@code CountDownLatch} is that it
32     * doesn't require that threads calling {@code countDown} wait for
33     * the count to reach zero before proceeding, it simply prevents any
34     * thread from proceeding past an {@link #await await} until all
35     * threads could pass.
36     *
37     * <p><b>Sample usage:</b> Here is a pair of classes in which a group
38     * of worker threads use two countdown latches:
39     * <ul>
40     * <li>The first is a start signal that prevents any worker from proceeding
41     * until the driver is ready for them to proceed;
42     * <li>The second is a completion signal that allows the driver to wait
43     * until all workers have completed.
44     * </ul>
45     *
46     * <pre> {@code
47     * class Driver { // ...
48     * void main() throws InterruptedException {
49     * CountDownLatch startSignal = new CountDownLatch(1);
50     * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
51     *
52     * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
53     * new Thread(new Worker(startSignal, doneSignal)).start();
54     *
55     * doSomethingElse(); // don't let run yet
56     * startSignal.countDown(); // let all threads proceed
57     * doSomethingElse();
58     * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
59     * }
60     * }
61     *
62     * class Worker implements Runnable {
63     * private final CountDownLatch startSignal;
64     * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
65     * Worker(CountDownLatch startSignal, CountDownLatch doneSignal) {
66     * this.startSignal = startSignal;
67     * this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
68     * }
69     * public void run() {
70     * try {
71     * startSignal.await();
72     * doWork();
73     * doneSignal.countDown();
74     * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
75     * }
76     *
77     * void doWork() { ... }
78     * }}</pre>
79     *
80     * <p>Another typical usage would be to divide a problem into N parts,
81     * describe each part with a Runnable that executes that portion and
82     * counts down on the latch, and queue all the Runnables to an
83     * Executor. When all sub-parts are complete, the coordinating thread
84     * will be able to pass through await. (When threads must repeatedly
85     * count down in this way, instead use a {@link CyclicBarrier}.)
86     *
87     * <pre> {@code
88     * class Driver2 { // ...
89     * void main() throws InterruptedException {
90     * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
91     * Executor e = ...
92     *
93     * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
94     * e.execute(new WorkerRunnable(doneSignal, i));
95     *
96     * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
97     * }
98     * }
99     *
100     * class WorkerRunnable implements Runnable {
101     * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
102     * private final int i;
103     * WorkerRunnable(CountDownLatch doneSignal, int i) {
104     * this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
105     * this.i = i;
106     * }
107     * public void run() {
108     * try {
109     * doWork(i);
110     * doneSignal.countDown();
111     * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
112     * }
113     *
114     * void doWork() { ... }
115     * }}</pre>
116     *
117     * <p>Memory consistency effects: Until the count reaches
118     * zero, actions in a thread prior to calling
119     * {@code countDown()}
120     * <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"><i>happen-before</i></a>
121     * actions following a successful return from a corresponding
122     * {@code await()} in another thread.
