NAME
dat_cno_wait - wait for notification events SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ] #include <dat/udat.h> DAT_RETURN dat_cno_wait ( IN DAT_CNO_HANDLE cno_handle, IN DAT_TIMEOUT timeout, OUT DAT_EVD_HANDLE *evd_handle ) PARAMETERS
cno_handle Handle for an instance of CNO timeout The duration to wait for a notification. The value DAT_TIMEOUT_INFINITE can be used to wait indefinitely. evd_handle Handle for an instance of EVD DESCRIPTION
The dat_cno_wait() function allows the Consumer to wait for notification events from a set of Event Dispatchers all from the same Interface Adapter. The Consumer blocks until notified or the timeout period expires. An Event Dispatcher that is disabled or in the "Waited" state does not deliver notifications. A uDAPL Consumer waiting directly upon an Event Dispatcher preempts the CNO. The consumer can optionally specify a timeout, after which it is unblocked even if there are no notification events. On a timeout, evd_han- dle is explicitly set to a null handle. The returned evd_handle is only a hint. Another Consumer can reap the Event before this Consumer can get around to checking the Event Dis- patcher. Additionally, other Event Dispatchers feeding this CNO might have been notified. The Consumer is responsible for ensuring that all EVDs feeding this CNO are polled regardless of whether they are identified as the immediate cause of the CNO unblocking. All the waiters on the CNO, including the OS Wait Proxy Agent if it is associated with the CNO, are unblocked with the NULL handle returns for an unblocking EVD evd_handle when the IA instance is destroyed or when all EVDs the CNO is associated with are freed. RETURN VALUES
DAT_SUCCESS The operation was successful. DAT_INVALID_HANDLE The cno_handle parameter is invalid. DAT_QUEUE_EMPTY The operation timed out without a notification. DAT_INVALID_PARAMETER One of the parameters was invalid or out of range, a combination of parameters was invalid, or the timeout parame- ter is invalid. DAT_INTERRUPTED_CALL The operation was interrupted by a signal. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
dat_cno_free - destroy an instance of the CNO SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ] #include <dat/udat.h> DAT_RETURN dat_cno_free ( IN DAT_CNO_HANDLE cno_handle ) PARAMETERS
cno_handle Handle for an instance of the CNO DESCRIPTION
The dat_cno_free() function destroys a specified instance of the CNO. A CNO cannot be deleted while it is referenced by an Event Dispatcher or while a thread is blocked on it. RETURN VALUES
DAT_SUCCESS The operation was successful. DAT_INVALID_HANDLE The cno_handle() parameter is invalid. DAT_INVALID_STATE Parameter in an invalid state. CNO is in use by an EVD instance or there is a thread blocked on it. USAGE
If there is a thread blocked in dat_cno_wait(3DAT), the Consumer can do the following steps to unblock the waiter: o Create a temporary EVD that accepts software events. It can be created in advance. o For a CNO with the waiter, attach that EVD to the CNO and post the software event on the EVD. o This unblocks the CNO. o Repeat for other CNOs that have blocked waiters. o Destroy the temporary EVD after all CNOs are destroyed and the EVD is no longer needed.
