🌸 PTHREAD_RWLOCK_WRLOCK(3P) — ok bestie, let's talk locks 💅

Hi hi! So this little page lives in the POSIX Programmer's Manual (yes, the 3P section, you clocked it ✨). Quick heads up before we get into it:

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux. 👀

Like, translation: your Linux box might do its own thing here, so double-check the Linux page, or it might not even be implemented at all. No cap. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

pthread_rwlock_wrlock — lock a read-write lock object for writing 🔐✍️

It's giving "I need the write lock, everyone else move." Main character energy fr.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <pthread.h>

int pthread_rwlock_wrlock(pthread_rwlock_t *rwlock);

That's it, that's the whole vibe. One function, one pointer, we love a minimal icon. 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so, plot twist: this page is lowkey just a redirect. Refer to pthread_rwlock_trywrlock(). 🏃‍♀️💨

Go read that one, bestie, that's where the real tea is. ✨
