NAME

     CK_RWCOHORT_INIT — initialize instance of a cohort-based reader-writer lock type

LIBRARY

     Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <ck_rwcohort.h>

     CK_RWCOHORT_NEUTRAL_INIT(COHORT_NAME cohort_name, LOCK *lock);

     CK_RWCOHORT_RP_INIT(COHORT_NAME cohort_name, LOCK *lock, unsigned int wait_limit);

     CK_RWCOHORT_WP_INIT(COHORT_NAME cohort_name, LOCK *lock, unsigned int wait_limit);

DESCRIPTION

     This macro initializes the lock instance pointed to by the lock argument.  Until a lock
     instance is initialized using the CK_RWCOHORT_INIT macro, any operations involving it will
     have undefined behavior.  Note that the wait_limit argument should only be used with reader-
     preference or writer-preference locks.  For neutral locks, this argument should be excluded.
     If you are unsure of a value to use for the wait_limit argument, you should use
     CK_RWCOHORT_STRATEGY_DEFAULT_LOCAL_WAIT_LIMIT.
