You need to help DRD in such cases because as you said you are not using
common synchronization primitives. The question is also why?
I was not able to discern your intention but it seems to me you are
introducing
a barrier or a producer-consumer queue. There are efficient POSIX
synchronization
primitives for these tasks which DRD supports natively.
Otherwise use DRD client requests [1] to annotate your intent.
Kind regards,
I.
