- .SH NAME
- pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock
- \(em lock a read-write lock for writing
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .LP
- .nf
- #include <pthread.h>
- #include <time.h>
- .P
- int pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock(pthread_rwlock_t *restrict \fIrwlock\fP,
- const struct timespec *restrict \fIabstime\fP);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The
- \fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR()
- function shall apply a write lock to the read-write lock referenced by
- .IR rwlock
- as in the
- \fIpthread_rwlock_wrlock\fR()
- function. However, if the lock cannot be acquired without waiting for
- other threads to unlock the lock, this wait shall be terminated when
- the specified timeout expires. The timeout shall expire when the
- absolute time specified by
- .IR abstime
- passes, as measured by the clock on which timeouts are based (that is,
- when the value of that clock equals or exceeds
- .IR abstime ),
- or if the absolute time specified by
- .IR abstime
- has already been passed at the time of the call.
- .P
- The timeout shall be based on the CLOCK_REALTIME clock.
- The resolution of the timeout shall be the resolution of the
- CLOCK_REALTIME clock. The
- .BR timespec
- data type is defined in the
- .IR <time.h>
- header. Under no circumstances shall the function fail with a timeout
- if the lock can be acquired immediately. The validity of the
- .IR abstime
- parameter need not be checked if the lock can be immediately acquired.
- .P
- If a signal that causes a signal handler to be executed is delivered to
- a thread blocked on a read-write lock via a call to
- \fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR(),
- upon return from the signal handler the thread shall resume waiting for
- the lock as if it was not interrupted.
- .P
- The calling thread may deadlock if at the time the call is made it
- holds the read-write lock. The results are undefined if this function
- is called with an uninitialized read-write lock.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- The
- \fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR()
- function shall return zero if the lock for writing on the read-write
- lock object referenced by
- .IR rwlock
- is acquired. Otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate
- the error.
- .SH ERRORS
- The
- \fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR()
- function shall fail if:
- .TP
- .BR ETIMEDOUT
- The lock could not be acquired before the specified timeout expired.
- .P
- The
- \fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR()
- function may fail if:
- .TP
- .BR EDEADLK
- A deadlock condition was detected or the calling thread already holds the
- .IR rwlock .
- .TP
- .BR EINVAL
- The
- .IR abstime
- nanosecond value is less than zero or greater than or equal to 1\|000
- million.
- .P
- This function shall not return an error code of
- .BR [EINTR] .
- .LP
- .IR "The following sections are informative."
- .SH EXAMPLES
- None.
- .SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
- Applications using this function may be subject to priority inversion,
- as discussed in the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017,
- .IR "Section 3.291" ", " "Priority Inversion".
- .SH RATIONALE
- If an implementation detects that the value specified by the
- .IR rwlock
- argument to
- \fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR()
- does not refer to an initialized read-write lock object, it is
- recommended that the function should fail and report an
- .BR [EINVAL]
- error.
- .SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS"
- None.
