If this function releases the last read lock for this +read-write lock object, the read-write lock object shall be put in the +unlocked state with no owners. +.P +If this function is called to release a write lock for this read-write +lock object, the read-write lock object shall be put in the unlocked +state. +.P +If there are threads blocked on the lock when it becomes available, the +scheduling policy shall determine which thread(s) shall acquire the +lock. +If the Thread Execution Scheduling option is supported, when threads +executing with the scheduling policies SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_RR, or +SCHED_SPORADIC are waiting on the lock, they shall acquire the lock in +priority order when the lock becomes available. For equal priority +threads, write locks shall take precedence over read locks. +If the Thread Execution Scheduling option is not supported, it is +implementation-defined whether write locks take precedence over read +locks. +.P +Results are undefined if this function is called with an uninitialized +read-write lock. +.SH "RETURN VALUE" +If successful, the +\fIpthread_rwlock_unlock\fR() +function shall return zero; otherwise, an error number shall be +returned to indicate the error. +.SH ERRORS +The +\fIpthread_rwlock_unlock\fR() +function shall not return an error code of +.BR [EINTR] . +.LP +.IR "The following sections are informative." +.SH EXAMPLES +None. +.SH "APPLICATION USAGE" +None. +.SH RATIONALE +If an implementation detects that the value specified by the +.IR rwlock +argument to +\fIpthread_rwlock_unlock\fR() +does not refer to an initialized read-write lock object, it is +recommended that the function should fail and report an +.BR [EINVAL] +error. +.P +If an implementation detects that the value specified by the +.IR rwlock +argument to +\fIpthread_rwlock_unlock\fR() +refers to a read-write lock object for which the current thread does +not hold a lock, it is recommended that the function should fail +and report an +.BR [EPERM] +error. +.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" +None. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.ad l +.IR "\fIpthread_rwlock_destroy\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIpthread_rwlock_rdlock\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIpthread_rwlock_timedrdlock\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIpthread_rwlock_timedwrlock\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIpthread_rwlock_trywrlock\fR\^(\|)" +.ad b +.P +The Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2008, +.IR "Section 4.11" ", " "Memory Synchronization", +.IR "\fB<pthread.h>\fP" +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2013 Edition, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 7, Copyright (C) 2013 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group. +(This is POSIX.1-2008 with the 2013 Technical Corrigendum 1 applied.)
