[Lldb-commits] [PATCH] D48393: Make DWARFParsing more thread-safe

Long term I think one potentially interesting possibility for solving a lot of these threading and lazy evaluation issues is to make a task queue that runs all related operations on a single thread and returns a future you can wait on.  This way, the core data structures themselves do not need synchronization because they are only ever accessed from one thread.  I actually have a patch in progress <https://reviews.llvm.org/D48240> to make this kind of infrastructure, which I actually needed for a different reason, but it would work equally well here.

Mostly just putting this out there as an idea for down the road, not that you should do it right now.
