Say I have three threads, thread 1, thread 2, and thread 3 all sharing the same lock. Thread 2 acquires the lock, does some work and then blocks via a call to the await method. Thread 1 then acquires the lock, does some work, and during the middle of it, thread 3 tries to acquire the lock but is blocked since thread 1 is holding it. Thread 1 finishes working and, before terminating, signals thread 2 that it can reacquire the lock. So what happens then? Will thread 2 or thread 3 acquire the lock next?
Thank you so much for your time and help in advance.
