NAME
       rsm_memseg_import_set_mode, rsm_memseg_import_get_mode - set or get mode for barrier scoping

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -lrsm [ library... ]
       #include <rsmapi.h>

       int rsm_memseg_import_set_mode(rsm_memseg_import_handle_t memseg, rsm_barrier_mode_t mode);

       int rsm_memseg_import_get_mode(rsm_memseg_import_handle_t memseg, rsm_barrier_mode_t *mode);

DESCRIPTION
       The   rsm_memseg_import_set_mode()  function  provides  support	for  optional  explicit  barrier scoping in the functions described on the
       rsm_memseg_import_get(3RSM) and rsm_memseg_import_put(3RSM) manual pages.. The two valid barrier modes  are  RSM_BARRIER_MODE_EXPLICIT  and
       RSM_BARRIER_MODE_IMPLICIT. By default, the barrier mode is set to RSM_BARRIER_MODE_IMPLICIT. When the mode is RSM_BARRIER_MODE_IMPLICIT, an
       implicit barrier open and barrier close is applied to the put operation.  Irrespective of the mode set, the  barrier  must  be  initialized
       using the  rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier(3RSM) function before any barrier operations, either implicit or explicit, are used.

       The rsm_memseg_import_get_mode() function obtains the current value of the mode used for barrier scoping in put functions.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error value is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       The rsm_memseg_import_set_mode() and rsm_memseg_import_get_mode() functions can return the following errors:

       RSMERR_BAD_SEG_HNDL     Invalid segment handle.
