* Condition variables
*
* A condition variable is a method of waiting until a certain condition
* becomes true. Conventionally, a condition variable supports three
* operations: (1) sleep; (2) signal, which wakes up one process sleeping
* on the condition variable; and (3) broadcast, which wakes up every
* process sleeping on the condition variable. In our implementation,
* condition variables put a process into an interruptible sleep (so it
* can be cancelled prior to the fulfillment of the condition) and do not
* use pointers internally (so that they are safe to use within DSMs).
