It +requires half the space that ck_rwlock does and has a low latency +fast path. The lock supports latch and unlatch operations that +allow it to be used in a copy-safe manner (reader-bits may be +over-written safely). +.Sh EXAMPLE +.Bd -literal -offset indent +#include + +static ck_swlock_t lock = CK_SWLOCK_INITIALIZER; + +static void +reader(void) +{ + + for (;;) { + ck_swlock_read_lock(&lock); + /* Read-side critical section. */ + ck_swlock_read_unlock(&lock); + + if (ck_swlock_read_trylock(&lock) == true) { + /* Read-side critical section. */ + ck_swlock_read_unlock(&lock); + } + } + + return; +} + +static void +writer(void) +{ + ck_swlock_t contrived; + + for (;;) { + ck_swlock_write_lock(&lock); + /* Write-side critical section. */ + ck_swlock_write_unlock(&lock); + + if (ck_swlock_write_trylock(&lock) == true) { + /* Write-side critical section. */ + ck_swlock_write_unlock(&lock); + } + + ck_swlock_write_latch(&lock); + /* Write-side critical section. */ + + /* This is safe to do with-in a latch. */ + *contrived = *lock; + *lock = *contrived; + ck_swlock_write_unlatch(&lock); + } + + return; +} +.Ed +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr ck_brlock 3 , +.Xr ck_elide 3 , +.Xr ck_pflock 3 , +.Xr ck_rwlock 3 , +.Xr ck_tflock 3 +.Pp +Additional information available at http://concurrencykit.org/
