- .SH NAME
- pthread_spin_destroy,
- pthread_spin_init
- \(em destroy or initialize a spin lock object
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .LP
- .nf
- #include <pthread.h>
- .P
- int pthread_spin_destroy(pthread_spinlock_t *\fIlock\fP);
- int pthread_spin_init(pthread_spinlock_t *\fIlock\fP, int \fIpshared\fP);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The
- \fIpthread_spin_destroy\fR()
- function shall destroy the spin lock referenced by
- .IR lock
- and release any resources used by the lock. The effect of subsequent
- use of the lock is undefined until the lock is reinitialized by another
- call to
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR().
- The results are undefined if
- \fIpthread_spin_destroy\fR()
- is called when a thread holds the lock, or if this function is called
- with an uninitialized thread spin lock.
- .P
- The
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR()
- function shall allocate any resources required to use the spin lock
- referenced by
- .IR lock
- and initialize the lock to an unlocked state.
- .P
- If the Thread Process-Shared Synchronization option is supported and
- the value of
- .IR pshared
- is PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED, the implementation
- shall permit the spin lock to be operated upon by any thread that has
- access to the memory where the spin lock is allocated, even if it is
- allocated in memory that is shared by multiple processes.
- .P
- See
- .IR "Section 2.9.9" ", " "Synchronization Object Copies and Alternative Mappings"
- for further requirements.
- .P
- The results are undefined if
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR()
- is called specifying an already initialized spin lock. The results are
- undefined if a spin lock is used without first being initialized.
- .P
- If the
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR()
- function fails, the lock is not initialized and the contents of
- .IR lock
- are undefined.
- .P
- Only the object referenced by
- .IR lock
- may be used for performing synchronization.
- .P
- The result of referring to copies of that object in calls to
- \fIpthread_spin_destroy\fR(),
- \fIpthread_spin_lock\fR(),
- \fIpthread_spin_trylock\fR(),
- or
- \fIpthread_spin_unlock\fR()
- is undefined.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- Upon successful completion, these functions shall return zero;
- otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
- .SH ERRORS
- The
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR()
- function shall fail if:
- .TP
- .BR EAGAIN
- The system lacks the necessary resources to initialize another spin
- lock.
- .TP
- .BR ENOMEM
- Insufficient memory exists to initialize the lock.
- .P
- These functions shall not return an error code of
- .BR [EINTR] .

- .SH EXAMPLES
- None.
- .SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
- None.
- .SH RATIONALE
- If an implementation detects that the value specified by the
- .IR lock
- argument to
- \fIpthread_spin_destroy\fR()
- does not refer to an initialized spin lock object, it is recommended
- that the function should fail and report an
- .BR [EINVAL]
- error.
- .P
- If an implementation detects that the value specified by the
- .IR lock
- argument to
- \fIpthread_spin_destroy\fR()
- or
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR()
- refers to a locked spin lock object, or detects that the value specified
- by the
- .IR lock
- argument to
- \fIpthread_spin_init\fR()
- refers to an already initialized spin lock object, it is recommended
- that the function should fail and report an
- .BR [EBUSY]
- error.
