22 < * <li> The number of parties synchronizing on a phaser may vary over
23 < * time.  A task may register to be a party at any time, and may
24 < * deregister upon arriving at the barrier.  As is the case with most
25 < * basic synchronization constructs, registration and deregistration
26 < * affect only internal counts; they do not establish any further
27 < * internal bookkeeping, so tasks cannot query whether they are

23 > * phaser may vary over time.  Tasks may be registered at any time

25 > * of constructors establishing initial numbers of parties), and may
26 > * optionally be deregistered upon any arrival (using {@link

31   * registered. (However, you can introduce such bookkeeping by
32   * subclassing this class.)
33   *
34 < * <li> Each generation has an associated phase value, starting at
35 < * zero, and advancing when all parties reach the barrier (wrapping
36 < * around to zero after reaching {@code Integer.MAX_VALUE}).
37 < *
38 < * <li> Like a CyclicBarrier, a Phaser may be repeatedly awaited.
39 < * Method {@code arriveAndAwaitAdvance} has effect analogous to
40 < * {@code CyclicBarrier.await}.  However, Phasers separate two
41 < * aspects of coordination, that may also be invoked independently:

47 < *   <li> Arriving at a barrier. Methods {@code arrive} and
48 < *       {@code arriveAndDeregister} do not block, but return
49 < *       the phase value current upon entry to the method.
50 < *
51 < *   <li> Awaiting others. Method {@code awaitAdvance} requires an
52 < *       argument indicating the entry phase, and returns when the
53 < *       barrier advances to a new phase.
47 > *   <li> Arriving at a barrier. Methods {@link #arrive} and

57   *
51 *
58   * <li> Barrier actions, performed by the task triggering a phase
59 < * advance while others may be waiting, are arranged by overriding
60 < * method {@code onAdvance}, that also controls termination.
61 < * Overriding this method may be used to similar but more flexible

60 > * int)}, which also controls termination. Overriding this method is
61 > * similar to, but more flexible than, providing a barrier action to a
62 > * {@code CyclicBarrier}.
63   *
64   * <li> Phasers may enter a <em>termination</em> state in which all
65   * actions immediately return without updating phaser state or waiting
66   * for advance, and indicating (via a negative phase value) that
67 < * execution is complete.  Termination is triggered by executing the
68 < * overridable {@code onAdvance} method that is invoked each time the
69 < * barrier is about to be tripped. When a Phaser is controlling an
70 < * action with a fixed number of iterations, it is often convenient to
71 < * override this method to cause termination when the current phase
72 < * number reaches a threshold. Method {@code forceTermination} is also
73 < * available to abruptly release waiting threads and allow them to
68 < * terminate.
67 > * execution is complete.  Termination is triggered when an invocation

75   * <li> Phasers may be tiered to reduce contention. Phasers with large
76   * numbers of parties that would otherwise experience heavy
# Line 75 | Line 80 | import java.util.concurrent.locks.LockSu
80   *
81   * <li> By default, {@code awaitAdvance} continues to wait even if
82   * the waiting thread is interrupted. And unlike the case in
83 < * CyclicBarriers, exceptions encountered while tasks wait
83 > * {@code CyclicBarrier}, exceptions encountered while tasks wait
84   * interruptibly or with timeout do not change the state of the
85   * barrier. If necessary, you can perform any associated recovery
86   * within handlers of those exceptions, often after invoking
87   * {@code forceTermination}.
88   *
89 < * <li>Phasers ensure lack of starvation when used by ForkJoinTasks.
89 > * <li>Phasers may be used to coordinate tasks executing in a {@link
90 > * ForkJoinPool}, which will ensure sufficient parallelism to execute
91 > * tasks when others are blocked waiting for a phase to advance.
92 > *
93 > * <li>The current state of a phaser may be monitored.  At any given
94 > * moment there are {@link #getRegisteredParties}, where {@link
95 > * #getArrivedParties} have arrived at the current phase ({@link
96 > * #getPhase}). When the remaining {@link #getUnarrivedParties})
97 > * arrive, the phase advances. Method {@link #toString} returns
98 > * snapshots of these state queries in a form convenient for
99 > * informal monitoring.

103   * <p><b>Sample usages:</b>
104   *
105 < * <p>A Phaser may be used instead of a {@code CountDownLatch} to control
106 < * a one-shot action serving a variable number of parties. The typical
107 < * idiom is for the method setting this up to first register, then
108 < * start the actions, then deregister, as in:

112   *   final Phaser phaser = new Phaser(1); // "1" to register self
113 < *   for (Runnable r : list) {
113 > *   // create and start threads
114 > *   for (Runnable task : tasks) {
115   *     phaser.register();
116   *     new Thread() {
117   *       public void run() {
118   *         phaser.arriveAndAwaitAdvance(); // await all creation
119 < *         r.run();
104 < *         phaser.arriveAndDeregister();   // signal completion
119 > *         task.run();
120   *       }
121   *     }.start();
122   *   }
123   *
124 < *   doSomethingOnBehalfOfWorkers();
125 < *   phaser.arrive(); // allow threads to start
111 < *   int p = phaser.arriveAndDeregister(); // deregister self  ...
112 < *   p = phaser.awaitAdvance(p); // ... and await arrival
113 < *   otherActions(); // do other things while tasks execute

124 > *   // allow threads to start and deregister self
125 > *   phaser.arriveAndDeregister();
126   * }}</pre>
127   *
128   * <p>One way to cause a set of threads to repeatedly perform actions
129   * for a given number of iterations is to override {@code onAdvance}:

132 > * void startTasks(List<Runnable> tasks, final int iterations) {
133   *   final Phaser phaser = new Phaser() {
134   *     public boolean onAdvance(int phase, int registeredParties) {
135   *       return phase >= iterations || registeredParties == 0;
136   *     }
137   *   };
138   *   phaser.register();
139 < *   for (Runnable r : list) {
139 > *   for (Runnable task : tasks) {
140   *     phaser.register();
141   *     new Thread() {
142   *       public void run() {
143   *         do {
144 < *           r.run();
144 > *           task.run();
145   *           phaser.arriveAndAwaitAdvance();
146   *         } while(!phaser.isTerminated();
147   *       }
# Line 139 | Line 150 | import java.util.concurrent.locks.LockSu
150   *   phaser.arriveAndDeregister(); // deregister self, don't wait
