Detailed Description

This file is part of the CernVM File System. A Fence can be used to protect critical regions where blocking is a very rare operation. When the Fence is not blocked, entering and leaving a critical region requires only a 1-2 atomic operations. In order to block the fence, no new threads can enter a critical region. When all entered regions are left, the fence is blocked. Waiting is done through slow busy wait.
