The tests currently have a single writer thread updating the system DSCR with a 1/1000 chance looped only 100 times. So only around one in 10 runs actually do anything.
* Add multiple threads to the dscr_explicit_random_test case. * Use a barrier to make all the threads start work as simultaneously as possible. * Use a rwlock and make all threads have a reasonable chance to write to the DSCR on each iteration. PTHREAD_RWLOCK_PREFER_WRITER_NONRECURSIVE_NP is used to prevent writers from starving while all the other threads keep reading. Logging the reads/writes shows a decent mix across the whole test. * Allow all threads a chance to write. * Make the chance of writing more likely.
