CK_EPOCH_REGISTER(3)  DragonFly Library Functions Manual  CK_EPOCH_REGISTER(3)


NAME

     ck_epoch_register - register a thread for epoch reclamation


LIBRARY

     Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <ck_epoch.h>

     void
     ck_epoch_register(ck_epoch_t *epoch, ck_epoch_record_t *record);


DESCRIPTION

     The ck_epoch_register(3) function associates a record object specified by
     the record pointer with the epoch object pointed to by epoch.  Any thread
     or processor that will require safe memory reclamation guarantees must
     register a unique record object. After registration, the object pointed
     to by the record argument will have lifetime managed by the underlying
     epoch sub-system.  The record object must not be destroyed after it is
     associated with a ck_epoch_register(3) call.


RETURN VALUES

     This function has no return value.
