On ARM64, volatile write (STLR/release) + volatile read (LDAR/acquire) to
different addresses does NOT provide StoreLoad ordering. This breaks
Dekker-like protocols where one side writes field A then reads field B,
while the other writes B then reads A — both sides can miss each other's
stores.
This adds U.fullFence() / VarHandle.fullFence() at all identified
Dekker-pattern sites:
VirtualThread.java:
- afterYield() PARKING path: between setState(PARKED/TIMED_PARKED) and
reading parkPermit (Dekker with unpark)
- afterYield() BLOCKING path: between setState(BLOCKED) and reading
blockPermit (Dekker with unblock)
- afterYield() WAITING path: between setState(WAIT/TIMED_WAIT) and
reading notified (Dekker with notify); fences in both untimed and
timed sub-paths (adapted for tip's per-path inline checks)
- afterDone(): between setState(TERMINATED) and reading
notifyAllAfterTerminate (Dekker with beforeJoin)
- unpark(): between getAndSetParkPermit(true) and reading state
(Dekker with afterYield PARKING path)
- unblock(): between blockPermit=true and reading state (Dekker with
afterYield BLOCKING path)
LinkedTransferQueue.java:
- xfer(): between cmpExItem CAS and reading waiter (Dekker with
await() which writes waiter then reads item)
SynchronousQueue.java:
- xferLifo(): between cmpExItem CAS and reading waiter (same Dekker
as LinkedTransferQueue)
AbstractQueuedSynchronizer.java:
- acquire(): between node.status=WAITING and re-reading state in
tryAcquire/tryAcquireShared (Dekker with release/releaseShared)
- release(): between tryRelease state update and reading node.status
in signalNext
- releaseShared(): same as release()
These fences are correctness-critical on ARM64, functionally redundant
on x86 (TSO already provides StoreLoad), and appear only on non-hot
paths (state transitions, not tight loops).
