.Sh DESCRIPTION
This is a centralized write-biased single-writer reader-writer lock. 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 <ck_swlock.h>
static ck_swlock_t lock = CK_SWLOCK_INITIALIZER;

{
for (;;) {
ck_swlock_read_lock(&lock);
/* Read-side critical section. */

if (ck_swlock_read_trylock(&lock) == true) {
/* Read-side critical section. */
ck_swlock_read_unlock(&lock);
}
}
return;
