Standard C Library Functions pthread_rwlockattr_init(3C)
NAME
pthread_rwlockattr_init, pthread_rwlockattr_destroy - ini-
tialize or destroy read-write lock attributes object
SYNOPSIS
cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ library... ]
#include
int pthread_rwlockattr_init(pthread_rwlockattr_t *attr);
int pthread_rwlockattr_destroy(pthread_rwlockattr_t *attr);
DESCRIPTION
The pthread_rwlockattr_init() function initializes a read-
write lock attributes object attr with the default value for all of the attributes defined by the implementation.Results are undefined if pthread_rwlockattr_init() is called
specifying an already initialized read-write lock attributes
object.After a read-write lock attributes object has been used to
initialize one or more read-write locks, any function
affecting the attributes object (including destruction) doesnot affect any previously initialized read-write locks.
The pthread_rwlockattr_destroy() function destroys a read-
write lock attributes object. The effect of subsequent useof the object is undefined until the object is re-
initialized by another call to pthread_rwlockattr_init(). An
implementation can cause pthread_rwlockattr_destroy() to set
the object referenced by attr to an invalid value.RETURN VALUES
If successful, the pthread_rwlockattr_init() and
pthread_rwlockattr_destroy() functions return 0. Otherwise,
an error number is returned to indicate the error.ERRORS
The pthread_rwlockattr_init() function will fail if:
ENOMEM Insufficient memory exists to initialize theread-write lock attributes object.
