<P>The <B>pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock</B> function shall apply a write
|
||
lock to the read-write lock referenced by <I>rwlock</I> as in the
|
||
<A HREF="pthread_rwlock_wrlock.html"><B>pthread_rwlock_wrlock</B>(3)</A>
|
||
function. However, if the lock cannot be acquired without waiting for
|
||
other threads to unlock the lock, this wait shall be terminated when
|
||
the specified timeout expires. The timeout shall expire when the
|
||
absolute time specified by <I>abs_timeout</I> passes, as measured by
|
||
the clock on which timeouts are based (that is, when the value of
|
||
that clock equals or exceeds <I>abs_timeout</I>), or if the absolute
|
||
time specified by <I>abs_timeout</I> has already been passed at the
|
||
time of the call.
|
||
</P>
|
||
<P>The <B>timespec</B> data type is defined in the <I><time.h></I>
|
||
header. Under no circumstances shall the function fail with a timeout
|
||
if the lock can be acquired immediately. The validity of the
|
||
<I>abs_timeout</I> parameter need not be checked if the lock can be
|
||
immediately acquired.
|
||
</P>
|
||
<P>The calling thread may deadlock if at the time the call is made it
|
||
holds the read-write lock. The results are undefined if this function
|
||
is called with an uninitialized read-write lock.
