// BlockingCounter
//
// This class allows a thread to block for a pre-specified number of actions.
// `BlockingCounter` maintains a single non-negative abstract integer "count"
// with an initial value `initial_count`. A thread can then call `Wait()` on
// this blocking counter to block until the specified number of events occur;
// worker threads then call 'DecrementCount()` on the counter upon completion of
// their work. Once the counter's internal "count" reaches zero, the blocked
// thread unblocks.
//
// A `BlockingCounter` requires the following:
// - its `initial_count` is non-negative.
// - the number of calls to `DecrementCount()` on it is at most
// `initial_count`.
// - `Wait()` is called at most once on it.
//
// Given the above requirements, a `BlockingCounter` provides the following
// guarantees:
// - Once its internal "count" reaches zero, no legal action on the object
// can further change the value of "count".
// - When `Wait()` returns, it is legal to destroy the `BlockingCounter`.
// - When `Wait()` returns, the number of calls to `DecrementCount()` on
// this blocking counter exactly equals `initial_count`.
//
// Example:
// BlockingCounter bcount(N); // there are N items of work
// ... Allow worker threads to start.
// ... On completing each work item, workers do:
// ... bcount.DecrementCount(); // an item of work has been completed
//
// bcount.Wait(); // wait for all work to be complete
//

// BlockingCounter::DecrementCount()
//
// Decrements the counter's "count" by one, and return "count == 0". This
// function requires that "count != 0" when it is called.
//
// Memory ordering: For any threads X and Y, any action taken by X
// before it calls `DecrementCount()` is visible to thread Y after
// Y's call to `DecrementCount()`, provided Y's call returns `true`.

// before X calls `DecrementCount()` is visible to Y after Y returns
// from `Wait()`.
