NAME¶

CK_RWCOHORT_PROTOTYPE — define reader-writer cohort-based lock using the specified cohort type

LIBRARY¶

Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <ck_rwcohort.h>

CK_RWCOHORT_NEUTRAL_PROTOTYPE(COHORT_NAME cohort_name);

CK_RWCOHORT_RP_PROTOTYPE(COHORT_NAME cohort_name);

CK_RWCOHORT_WP_PROTOTYPE(COHORT_NAME cohort_name);

DESCRIPTION¶

The ck_rwcohort.h header file does not define any cohort types. Instead, the user must use the CK_RWCOHORT_PROTOTYPE macro to define any types they want to use. This macro takes a single argument which corresponds to the type of the cohort lock that the reader-writer lock should use. A cohort type must have already been defined with that name using the CK_COHORT_PROTOTYPE(3) or CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE(3) macros.

Instances of the defined lock type can be declared as:
CK_RWCOHORT_INSTANCE(cohort_name) lock;
