PTHREAD_SPIN_DESTROY(3P)   POSIX Programmer's Manual  PTHREAD_SPIN_DESTROY(3P)

PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the	 corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME
       pthread_spin_destroy, pthread_spin_init — destroy or initialize a  spin
       lock object

SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_spin_destroy(pthread_spinlock_t *lock);
       int pthread_spin_init(pthread_spinlock_t *lock, int pshared);

DESCRIPTION
       The  pthread_spin_destroy() function shall destroy the spin lock refer‐
       enced by 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 pthread_spin_init().	The results are	 undefined  if
       pthread_spin_destroy()  is  called  when a thread holds the lock, or if
       this function is called with an uninitialized thread spin lock.

       The pthread_spin_init() function shall allocate any resources  required
       to  use	the spin lock referenced by lock and initialize the lock to an
       unlocked state.

       If the Thread Process-Shared Synchronization option  is	supported  and
       the  value  of  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.

       If the Thread Process-Shared Synchronization option  is	supported  and
       the  value  of  pshared is PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE, or if the option is
       not supported, the spin lock shall only be  operated  upon  by  threads
       created within the same process as the thread that initialized the spin
       lock. If threads of differing processes attempt to operate  on  such  a
       spin lock, the behavior is undefined.

       The  results  are undefined if pthread_spin_init() is called specifying
       an already initialized spin lock. The results are undefined if  a  spin
       lock is used without first being initialized.

       If  the pthread_spin_init() function fails, the lock is not initialized
       and the contents of lock are undefined.

       Only the object referenced by lock may be used for performing  synchro‐
       nization.

       The  result  of	referring  to  copies  of  that	 object	 in  calls  to
       pthread_spin_destroy(), pthread_spin_lock(), pthread_spin_trylock(), or
       pthread_spin_unlock() is undefined.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful	 completion, these functions shall return zero; other‐
       wise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       The pthread_spin_init() function shall fail if:

       EAGAIN The system lacks the necessary resources to  initialize  another
	      spin lock.

       ENOMEM Insufficient memory exists to initialize the lock.

       These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES
       None.

APPLICATION USAGE
       None.

RATIONALE
       If an implementation detects that the value specified by the lock argu‐
       ment to pthread_spin_destroy() does not refer to	 an  initialized  spin
       lock object, it is recommended that the function should fail and report
       an [EINVAL] error.

       If an implementation detects that the value specified by the lock argu‐
       ment  to	 pthread_spin_destroy()	 or  pthread_spin_init()  refers  to a
       locked spin lock object, or detects that the  value  specified  by  the
       lock  argument  to pthread_spin_init() refers to an already initialized
       spin lock object, it is recommended that the function should  fail  and
       report an [EBUSY] error.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
