Swift关于Barrier的使用

Async不会阻塞当前的执行线程，反之Sync会阻塞。
Barrier需要等待上一个任务执行完成。
队列的执行效率比UnfairLock要慢，当使用相对安全与容易。

// Sync / Async / Barrier /
let dispatchQueueA = DispatchQueue(label: "A", attributes: .concurrent)

print("Task 1 begin")
dispatchQueueA.async { // Task1
    for index in 0 ..< 5 {
        sleep(2)
        print("Task 1 - async \(index)")
    }
}

print("Task 2 begin")
dispatchQueueA.sync { // Task2
    for index in 0 ..< 5 {
        sleep(1)
        print("Task 2 - sync without barrier \(index)")
    }
}

print("Task 3.1 begin")

dispatchQueueA.async(flags: .barrier) {
    for index in 0 ..< 5 {
        sleep(1)
        print("Task 3.1 - async with barrier \(index)")
    }
}

print("Task 3.2 begin")
dispatchQueueA.async(flags: .barrier) {
    for index in 0 ..< 5 {
        sleep(1)
        print("Task 3.2 - async with barrier \(index)")
    }
}

print("Task 4 begin")
dispatchQueueA.sync(flags: .barrier) { // Task3
    // the tasks(sync, async) assigned before this block will be completed first
    // then this task will execute and as it is sync task no other task will start until it finishes
    for index in 0 ..< 5 {
        sleep(1)
        print("Task 4 - sync with barrier \(index)")
    }
}

print("Task 5 begin")
dispatchQueueA.async { // Task4
    for index in 5 ..< 10 {
        sleep(1)
        print("Task 5 - async \(index)")
    }
}

print("Task 6 begin")
dispatchQueueA.sync { // Task5
    for index in 5 ..< 10 {
        sleep(1)
        print("Task 6 - sync without barrier \(index)")
    }
}
