OpenMP allows cases like the following:
```c
int *p1, *p2, x;
p1 = p2 = &x;
...
#pragma omp target_exit_data map(delete: p1[:]) from(p2[0])
```
Which means, when the runtime encounters the `from` entry, the ref-count
may not be zero, but it will go down to zero at the end of the current
construct, which should cause the "from" transfer to happen.
Similarly, a user may have:
```c
struct S {
int *p;
};
#pragma omp declare_mapper (id1: S s) map(s.p) map(present, alloc: s.p[0:10])
#pragma omp declare_mapper (id2: S s) map(s.p, s.p[0:10])
S s1;
// present-check should fail here
#pragma omp target_enter_data map(alloc: s.p[0:10]) map(mapper(id1), to: s)
// "to" should be honored here
#pragma omp target_enter_data map(alloc: s.p[0:10]) map(mapper(id2), to: s)
```
Where the allocation happens before the "to" entry is encountered by the
runtime. Or, an allocation happens before a "present" entry is
encountered.
To handle cases like this, we need to use the state information of
previously seen new allocations, deletions, "from" entries, when
honoring `to`/`from`/`present` map entries.
Summary:
We provide an RPC server to manage calls initiated by the device to run
on the host. This is very useful for the built-in handling we have,
however there are cases where we would want to extend this
functionality.
Cases like Fortran or MPI would be useful, but we cannot put references
to these in the core offloading runtime. This way, we can provide this
as a library interface that registers custom handlers for whatever code
people want.
This patch introduces libomptarget support for the ATTACH map-type,
which can be used to implement OpenMP conditional compliant pointer
attachment, based on whether the pointer/pointee is newly mapped on a
given construct.
For example, for the following:
```c
int *p;
#pragma omp target enter data map(p[1:10])
```
The following maps can be emitted by clang:
```
(A)
&p[0], &p[1], 10 * sizeof(p[1]), TO | FROM
&p, &p[1], sizeof(p), ATTACH
```
Without this map-type, these two possible maps could be emitted by
clang:
```
(B)
&p[0], &p[1], 10 * sizeof(p[1]), TO | FROM
(C)
&p, &p[1], 10 * sizeof(p[1]), TO | FROM | PTR_AND_OBJ
````
(B) does not perform any pointer attachment, while (C) also maps the
pointer p, which are both incorrect.
In terms of implementation, maps with the ATTACH map-type are handled
after all other maps have been processed, as it requires knowledge of
which new allocations happened as part of the construct. As per OpenMP
5.0, an attachment should happen only when either the pointer or the
pointee was newly mapped while handling the construct.
Maps with ATTACH map-type-bit do not increase/decrease the ref-count.
With OpenMP 6.1, `attach(always/never)` can be used to force/prevent
attachment. For `attach(always)`, the compiler will insert the ALWAYS
map-type, which would let libomptarget bypass the check about one of the
pointer/pointee being new. With `attach(never)`, the ATTACH map will not
be emitted at all.
The size argument of the ATTACH map-type can specify values greater than
`sizeof(void*)` which can be used to support pointer attachment on
Fortran descriptors. Note that this also requires shadow-pointer
tracking to also support them. That has not been implemented in this
patch.
This was worked upon in coordination with Ravi Narayanaswamy, who has
since retired. Happy retirement, Ravi!

This sprinkles a few mutexes around the plugin interface so that the
olLaunchKernel CTS test now passes when ran on multiple threads.
Part of this also involved changing the interface for device synchronise
so that it can optionally not free the underlying queue (which
introduced a race condition in liboffload).
