+/* NaCl has no concept of PID or TID, nor even any notion of an
+ identifier for a thread within the process. But various places in
+ the NPTL implementation rely on using the 'tid' field of the TCB
+ (struct pthread) as an identifier that is unique at least among all
+ live threads in the process. So we must synthesize some number to
+ use. Conveniently, the 'pthread_t' value itself is already unique
+ in exactly this way (because it's the 'struct pthread' pointer).
+
+ The only wrinkle is that 'tid' is a (32-bit) 'int' and its high
+ (sign) bit is used for special purposes, so we must be absolutely
+ sure that we never use a pointer value with the high bit set. (It
+ also cannot be zero, but zero is never a valid pointer anyway.)
+ The NaCl sandbox models for 32-bit machines limit the address space
+ to less than 3GB (in fact, to 1GB), so it's already impossible that
+ a valid pointer will have its high bit set. But the NaCl x86-64
+ sandbox model allows a full 4GB of address space, so we cannot
+ assume that an arbitrary pointer value will not have the high bit
+ set. Conveniently, there are always unused bits in the pointer
+ value for a 'struct pthread', because it is always aligned to at
+ least 32 bits and so the low bits are always zero. Hence, we can
+ safely avoid the danger of a nonzero high bit just by shifting the
+ pointer value right. */
