NAME
dlm_unlock - unlock a DLM lock SYNOPSIS
#include <libdlm.h> int dlm_unlock(uint32_t lkid, uint32_t flags, struct dlm_lksb *lksb, void *astarg); int dlm_unlock_wait(uint32_t lkid, uint32_t flags, struct dlm_lksb *lksb); DESCRIPTION
dlm_unlock() unlocks a lock previously acquired by dlm_lock and its variants. Unless dlm_unlock_wait() is used unlocks are also asynchronous. The AST routine is called when the resource is successfully unlocked (see below). lkid Lock ID as returned in the lksb flags flags affecting the unlock operation: LKF_CANCEL Cancel a pending lock or conversion. This returns the lock to it's previously granted mode (in case of a conversion) or unlocks it (in case of a waiting lock). LKF_IVVALBLK Invalidate value block LKF_FORCEUNLOCK Unlock the lock even if it's waiting. lksb LKSB to return status and value block information. astarg New parameter to be passed to the completion AST. The completion AST routine is the last completion AST routine specified in a dlm_lock call. If dlm_lock_wait() was the last routine to issue a lock, dlm_unlock_wait() must be used to release the lock. If dlm_lock() was the last routine to issue a lock then either dlm_unlock() or dlm_unlock_wait() may be called. Return values 0 is returned if the call completed successfully. If not, -1 is returned and errno is set to one of the following: EINVAL An invalid parameter was passed to the call (eg bad lock mode or flag) EINPROGRESS The lock is already being unlocked EBUSY The lock is currently being locked or converted ENOTEMPTY An attempt to made to unlock a parent lock that still has child locks. ECANCEL A lock conversion was successfully cancelled EUNLOCK An unlock operation completed successfully (sb_status only) EFAULT The userland buffer could not be read/written by the kernel If an error is returned in the AST, then lksb.sb_status is set to the one of the above numbers instead of zero. EXAMPLE
int status; struct dlm_lksb lksb; status = dlm_lock_wait(LKM_EXMODE, &lksb, LKF_NOQUEUE, "MyLock", strlen("MyLock"), 0, // Parent, NULL, // bast arg NULL, // bast routine, NULL); // Range if (status == 0) dlm_unlock_wait(lksb.sb_lkid, 0, &lksb); SEE ALSO

dlm_lock - acquire or convert a DLM lock SYNOPSIS
#include <libdlm.h> int dlm_lock(uint32_t mode, struct dlm_lksb *lksb, uint32_t flags, const void *name, unsigned int namelen, uint32_t parent, /* unused */ void (*astaddr) (void *astarg), void *astarg, void (*bastaddr) (void *astarg), void *range); /* unused */ int dlm_lock_wait(uint32_t mode, struct dlm_lksb *lksb, uint32_t flags, const void *name, unsigned int namelen, uint32_t parent, /* unused */ void *bastarg, void (*bastaddr) (void *bastarg), void *range); /* unused */ int dlm_ls_lock(dlm_lshandle_t lockspace, uint32_t mode, struct dlm_lksb *lksb, uint32_t flags, const void *name, unsigned int namelen, uint32_t parent, /* unused */ void (*astaddr) (void *astarg), void *astarg, void (*bastaddr) (void *astarg), void *range); /* unused */ int dlm_ls_lock_wait(dlm_lshandle_t lockspace, uint32_t mode, struct dlm_lksb *lksb, uint32_t flags, const void *name, unsigned int namelen, uint32_t parent, /* unusued */ void *bastarg, void (*bastaddr) (void *bastarg), void *range); /* unused */ int dlm_ls_lockx(dlm_lshandle_t lockspace, uint32_t mode, struct dlm_lksb *lksb, uint32_t flags, const void *name, unsigned int namelen, uint32_t parent, /* unused */ (*astaddr) (void *astarg), void *astarg, void (*bastaddr) (void *astarg), uint64_t *xid, uint64_t *timeout); DESCRIPTION
dlm_lock and its variants acquire and convert locks in the DLM. dlm_lock() operations are asynchronous. If the call to dlm_lock returns an error then the operation has failed and the AST routine will not be called. If dlm_lock returns 0 it is still possible that the lock operation will fail. The AST routine will be called when the locking is complete or has failed and the status is returned in the lksb. dlm_lock_wait() will wait until the lock operation has completed and returns the final completion status. dlm_ls_lock() is the same as dlm_lock() but takes a lockspace argument. This lockspace must have been previously opened by dlm_lockspace_open() or dlm_lockspace_create(). For conversion operations the name and namelen are ignored and the lock ID in the LKSB is used to identify the lock to be converted. If a lock value block is specified then in general, a grant or a conversion to an equal-level or higher-level lock mode reads the lock value from the resource into the caller's lock value block. When a lock conversion from EX or PW to an equal-level or lower-level lock mode occurs, the contents of the caller's lock value block are written into the resource. If the LVB is invalidated the lksb.sb_flags member will be set to DLM_SBF_VALNOTVALID. Lock values blocks are always 32 bytes long. If the AST routines or parameter are passed to a conversion operation then they will overwrite those values that were passed to a previous dlm_lock call. mode Lock mode to acquire or convert to. LKM_NLMODE NULL Lock LKM_CRMODE Concurrent read LKM_CWMODE Concurrent write LKM_PRMODE Protected read LKM_PWMODE Protected write LKM_EXMODE Exclusive flags Affect the operation of the lock call: LKF_NOQUEUE Don't queue the lock. If it cannot be granted return -EAGAIN LKF_CONVERT Convert an existing lock LKF_VALBLK Lock has a value block LKF_QUECVT Put conversion to the back of the queue LKF_EXPEDITE Grant a NL lock immediately regardless of other locks on the conversion queue LKF_PERSISTENT Specifies a lock that will not be unlocked when the process exits; it will become an orphan lock. LKF_CONVDEADLK Enable internal conversion deadlock resolution where the lock's granted mode may be set to NL and DLM_SBF_DEMOTED is returned in lksb.sb_flags. LKF_NODLCKWT Do not consider this lock when trying to detect deadlock conditions. LKF_NODLCKBLK Not implemented LKF_NOQUEUEBAST Send blocking ASTs even for NOQUEUE operations LKF_HEADQUE Add locks to the head of the convert or waiting queue LKF_NOORDER Avoid the VMS rules on grant order LKF_ALTPR If the requested mode can't be granted (generally CW), try to grant in PR and return DLM_SBF_ALTMODE. LKF_ALTCW If the requested mode can't be granted (generally PR), try to grant in CW and return DLM_SBF_ALTMODE. LKF_TIMEOUT The lock will time out per the timeout arg. lksb Lock Status block This structure contains the returned lock ID, the actual status of the lock operation (all lock ops are asynchronous) and the value block if LKF_VALBLK is set. name Name of the lock. Can be binary, max 64 bytes. Ignored for lock conversions. (Should be a string to work with debugging tools.) namelen Length of the above name. Ignored for lock conversions. parent ID of parent lock or NULL if this is a top-level lock. This is currently unused. ast Address of AST routine to be called when the lock operation completes. The final completion status of the lock will be in the lksb. the AST routine must not be NULL. astargs Argument to pass to the AST routine (most people pass the lksb in here but it can be anything you like.) bast Blocking AST routine. address of a function to call if this lock is blocking another. The function will be called with astargs. range This is unused. xid Optional transaction ID for deadlock detection. timeout Timeout in centiseconds. If it takes longer than this to acquire the lock (usually because it is already blocked by another lock), then the AST will trigger with ETIMEDOUT as the status. If the lock operation is a conversion then the lock will remain at its current status. If this is a new lock then the lock will not exist and any LKB in the lksb will be invalid. This is ignored without the LKF_TIMEOUT flag. Return values 0 is returned if the call completed successfully. If not, -1 is returned and errno is set to one of the following: EINVAL An invalid parameter was passed to the call (eg bad lock mode or flag) ENOMEM A (kernel) memory allocation failed EAGAIN LKF_NOQUEUE was requested and the lock could not be granted EBUSY The lock is currently being locked or converted EFAULT The userland buffer could not be read/written by the kernel (this indicates a library problem) EDEADLOCK The lock operation is causing a deadlock and has been cancelled. If this was a conversion then the lock is reverted to its previously granted state. If it was a new lock then it has not been granted. (NB Only conversion deadlocks are currently detected) If an error is returned in the AST, then lksb.sb_status is set to the one of the above values instead of zero. Structures struct dlm_lksb { int sb_status; /* Final status of lock operation */ uint32_t sb_lkid; /* ID of lock. Returned from dlm_lock() on first use. Used as input to dlm_lock() for a conversion operation */ char sb_flags; /* Completion flags, see above */ char sb_lvbptr; /* Optional pointer to lock value block */ }; EXAMPLE
