How to simulate? as in feed the OS a fake key event? For what purpose? Faking a key event is fairly difficult and means reconfiguring things in advance to allow for it (but not impossible, see matchbox-keyboard). But depending on what you want you may not need to fake a key event, what is it?
I'm not trying to be obstinate. If I ask a question the first time I'm going to ask it again when ignored because the answer would be genuinely useful.
Nearly all applications filter out that kind of induced key-event for security reasons. This is why faking a usable, 'real' key event is fairly difficult and means reconfiguring things in advance to allow for it (see matchbox-keyboard) -- it means feeding X11 an entire fake keyboard device to generate 'real' events. But depending on what the ultimate goal is you may not need to fake a key event, what is it? What does fn-scroll-lock even mean? most keyboards have no fn-key, and the fn-key is generally not mapped to a real key if it does, instead producing key combinations that could be completely different keys.

I want to use key of Scroll Lk to lock the current screen.
I'm quite new in linux c development. But familiar with windows c, c++ programming.
The context is like this:
I want to migrate the application program of Turbo C in Dos OS to Linux environment.
I think you may be expert in Turbo C program.
One function is to get the status of current screen.(locked or unlocked) and set the current screen to be locked or unlocked.
I don't know how to design this kind of migration. Maybe I should not translate line by line, but use another more sensible method.
Can you give some suggestions on this? Thank you very much!
