tis_unlock_global(3) Library Functions Manual tis_unlock_global(3)NAMEtis_unlock_global - Unlocks the DECthreads global mutex.LIBRARYStandard C Library (libc.so, libc.a)SYNOPSIS#include <tis.h> int tis_unlock_global(void);STANDARDSNonePARAMETERSNoneDESCRIPTIONThis routine unlocks the DECthreads global mutex. Because the global mutex is recursive, the unlock occurs when each call to tis_lock_global(3) has been matched by a call to this routine. For example, if your program called tis_lock_global(3) three times, tis_unlock_global(3) unlocks the global mutex when you call it the third time. For more information about actions taken when threads are present, refer to the pthread_unlock_global_np()(3) description.RETURN VALUESIf an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value indicating the type of error. Possible return values are as follows: Successful completion. The DECthreads global mutex is unlocked or locked by another thread.ERRORSNoneRELATED INFORMATIONFunctions: tis_lock_global(3) Manuals: Guide to DECthreads and Programmer's Guide delim off tis_unlock_global(3)
