futex_waitv(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

futex_waitv - Wait at multiple futexes, wake on any. Okay bestie, this is the futex_waitv(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it is literally about waiting at multiple futexes and waking on any 💅✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int futex_waitv (volatile struct futex_waitv *waiters , unsigned long nr_waiters , unsigned long flags , struct timespec *timo , clockid_t clockid );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• waiters — Array of waiters. That’s the lineup, no cap.
• nr_waiters — Length of waiters array. Gotta know how many besties are waiting.
• flags — Operation flags. The little switches for the operation.
• timo — Optional timeout for operation. Optional, so it can absolutely mind its own business.
• clockid — -- undescribed --. The original page says exactly that, so we are not inventing lore. It’s giving mystery main character energy 🫶
