<P>pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock - lock a read-write lock for reading
</P>
<H2><A HREF="#toc1" NAME="sect1">Synopsis</A></H2>
<P><B>#include <pthread.h> <BR></B>#include <time.h>
</P>
<P><B>int pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock(pthread_rwlock_t *restrict</B>
<I>rwlock</I><B>, const struct timespec *restrict</B> <I>abs_timeout</I><B>);
</B>
</P>
<H2><A HREF="#toc2" NAME="sect2">Description</A></H2>
<P>The <B>pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock</B> function shall apply a read
lock to the read-write lock referenced by <I>rwlock</I> as in the
<A HREF="pthread_rwlock_rdlock.html"><B>pthread_rwlock_rdlock</B>(3)</A>
function. However, if the lock cannot be acquired without waiting for
other threads to unlock the lock, this wait shall be terminated when
the specified timeout expires. The timeout shall expire when the
absolute time specified by <I>abs_timeout</I> passes, as measured by
the clock on which timeouts are based (that is, when the value of
that clock equals or exceeds <I>abs_timeout</I>), or if the absolute
time specified by <I>abs_timeout</I> has already been passed at the
time of the call.
</P>
<P>The <B>timespec</B> data type is defined in the <I><time.h></I>
header. Under no circumstances shall the function fail with a timeout
if the lock can be acquired immediately. The validity of the
<I>abs_timeout</I> parameter need not be checked if the lock can be
immediately acquired.
</P>
<P>The calling thread may deadlock if at the time the call is made it
holds a write lock on <I>rwlock</I>. The results are undefined if
this function is called with an uninitialized read-write lock.
</P>
<P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> defines <B>_POSIX_READER_WRITER_LOCKS</B> in
pthread.h as 200112L to indicate that the reader/writer routines are
implemented and may be used.</P>
<H2><A HREF="#toc3" NAME="sect3">Return Value</A></H2>
<P>The <B>pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock</B> function shall return zero
if the lock for reading on the read-write lock object referenced by
<I>rwlock</I> is acquired. Otherwise, an error number shall be
returned to indicate the error.
</P>
<H2><A HREF="#toc4" NAME="sect4">Errors</A></H2>
<P>The <B>pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock</B> function shall fail if:
</P>
<DL>
<DT><B>ETIMEDOUT</B>
</DT><DD STYLE="margin-bottom: 0.5cm">
The lock could not be acquired before the specified timeout expired.
</DD></DL>
<P>
The <B>pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock</B> function may fail if:
</P>
<DL>
<DT><B>EAGAIN</B>
</DT><DD>
The read lock could not be acquired because the maximum number of
read locks for lock would be exceeded.
</DD><DT>
<B>EINVAL</B>
</DT><DD STYLE="margin-bottom: 0.5cm">
The value specified by <I>rwlock</I> does not refer to an

nanosecond value is less than zero or greater than or equal to 1000
million.

This function shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
