PTHREAD_RWLOCKATTR_DESTROY(POSIX Programmer's MaPTHREAD_RWLOCKATTR_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_rwlockattr_destroy, pthread_rwlockattr_init - destroy and  ini-
       tialize the read-write lock attributes object
SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>
       int pthread_rwlockattr_destroy(pthread_rwlockattr_t *attr);
       int pthread_rwlockattr_init(pthread_rwlockattr_t *attr);

DESCRIPTION
       The  pthread_rwlockattr_destroy()  function  shall destroy a read-write
       lock attributes object. A  destroyed  attr  attributes  object  can  be
       reinitialized using pthread_rwlockattr_init(); the results of otherwise
       referencing the object after it has been destroyed  are  undefined.  An
       implementation may cause pthread_rwlockattr_destroy() to set the object
       referenced by attr to an invalid value.
       The pthread_rwlockattr_init() function shall  initialize  a  read-write
       lock  attributes  object  attr  with  the  default value for all of the
       attributes defined by the implementation.
       Results are undefined if pthread_rwlockattr_init() is called specifying
       an already initialized attr attributes object.
       After  a  read-write lock attributes object has been used to initialize
       one or more read-write locks, any  function  affecting  the  attributes
       object (including destruction) shall not affect any previously initial-
       ized read-write locks.
RETURN VALUE
       If successful,  the  pthread_rwlockattr_destroy()  and  pthread_rwlock-
       attr_init()  functions  shall  return  zero; otherwise, an error number
       shall be returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
       The pthread_rwlockattr_destroy() function may fail if:
       EINVAL The value specified by attr is invalid.

       The pthread_rwlockattr_init() function shall fail if:
       ENOMEM Insufficient memory exists to  initialize  the  read-write  lock
              attributes object.

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