   125 // concurently, and assume this will work.  In order to make this work,
       
   126 // We lock the context when a thread enters, and unlock it when it leaves.
       
   127 // However we do not only unlock when the thread returns from its
       
   128 // entry point (evaluate script or call function), we also unlock the
       
   129 // context if the thread leaves JSC by making a call out to an external
       
   130 // function through a callback.

   133 // Whenever a thread calls into JSC it starts using the RegisterFile from the
       
   134 // previous 'high water mark' - the maximum point the stack has ever grown to
       
   135 // (returned by RegisterFile::end()).  So if a first thread calls out to a
       
   136 // callback, and a second thread enters JSC, then also exits by calling out
       
   137 // to a callback, we can be left with stackframes from both threads in the
       
   138 // RegisterFile.  As such, a problem may occur should the first thread's
       
   139 // callback complete first, and attempt to return to JSC.  Were we to allow
       
   140 // this to happen, and were its stack to grow further, then it may potentially
       
   141 // write over the second thread's call frames.
       
   142 //
       
   143 // In avoid JS stack corruption we enforce a policy of only ever allowing two
       
   144 // threads to use a JS context concurrently, and only allowing the second of
       
   145 // these threads to execute until it has completed and fully returned from its
       
   146 // outermost call into JSC.  We enforce this policy using 'lockDropDepth'.  The
       
   147 // first time a thread exits it will call DropAllLocks - which will do as expected
       
   148 // and drop locks allowing another thread to enter.  Should another thread, or the
       
   149 // same thread again, enter JSC (through evaluate script or call function), and exit
       
   150 // again through a callback, then the locks will not be dropped when DropAllLocks
       
   151 // is called (since lockDropDepth is non-zero).  Since this thread is still holding
       
   152 // the locks, only it will re able to re-enter JSC (either be returning from the
       
   153 // callback, or by re-entering through another call to evaulate script or call
       
   154 // function).
       
   155 //
       
   156 // This policy is slightly more restricive than it needs to be for correctness -
       
   157 // we could validly allow futher entries into JSC from other threads, we only
       
   158 // need ensure that callbacks return in the reverse chronological order of the
       
   159 // order in which they were made - though implementing the less restrictive policy
       
   160 // would likely increase complexity and overhead.
