35 * The LocklessBuffer class implements double buffering eligible for multi-(two) threaded use,
36 * where it's possible to read from one thread and write from another
37 * without requiring a mutex lock to avoid performance hit.
38 * It's intended to be used for reading bitmap data in render thread
39 * while still possible to write data in another thread.
41 * Ideally Write() and Read() calls should be alternating, otherwise written data might be thrown away.
43 * The buffers are swapped in the reading thread, just before reading begins.
44 * In case the other thread is writing at that moment, buffers are not swapped and previously available data is read.
45 * Similarly if Write() is called before a Read() has finished the previous write buffer is overwritten.

83 * Atomically set state.
84 * We're always writing to one buffer and reading from the other.
85 * Write() sets WRITING bit when started and unsets it when finished.
