FCFS RWLock
FCFS RWLock is a first-come first-served readers/writers lock for POSIX threads. FCFS means that the first thread to request control of the lock will gain it, based on the constraints of a readers/writers lock. FCFS RWLock is well documented and commented, so it can easily be used as a reference implementation.
