const GateProcessSupportNull_Q_BLOCKING

Blocking quality

C synopsis target-domain
#define GateProcessSupportNull_Q_BLOCKING (Int)1

Runtime test for a particular gate quality

C synopsis target-domain
Bool GateProcessSupportNull_query(Int qual);
 
ARGUMENTS
qual — constant describing a quality
RETURNS
Returns TRUE if the gate has the given quality, and FALSE otherwise, which includes the case when the gate does not recognize the constant describing the quality.

// Convert this instance structure pointer into an instance handle
 
GateProcessSupportNull_Struct *GateProcessSupportNull_struct(GateProcessSupportNull_Handle handle);
// Convert this instance handle into an instance structure pointer
Instance Config Parameters

C synopsis target-domain
typedef struct GateProcessSupportNull_Params {
// Instance config-params structure
    IInstance_Params *instance;
    // Common per-instance configs
    Int key;
    // globally unique key for SysV-style semaphore

Instance Creation

C synopsis target-domain
GateProcessSupportNull_Handle GateProcessSupportNull_create(const GateProcessSupportNull_Params *params, Error_Block *eb);
// Allocate and initialize a new instance object and return its handle
 
Void GateProcessSupportNull_construct(GateProcessSupportNull_Struct *structP, const GateProcessSupportNull_Params *params);
// Initialize a new instance object inside the provided structure
ARGUMENTS
params — per-instance config params, or NULL to select default values (target-domain only)
eb — active error-handling block, or NULL to select default policy (target-domain only)
DETAILS
This function creates a new GateProcess object which is initialized to count. All gates created with the same key reference the same underlying synchronization object and work between processes. The underlying synchronization object should be automatically deleted when all references to it have been deleted, and the reference count should An implementation for a platform on which this is technically impossible (e.g. an operating system that does not support multiple processes) may provide a 'toy' implemenation with behavior matching that of IGateProcessSupport.
Instance Deletion

C synopsis target-domain
Void GateProcessSupportNull_delete(GateProcessSupportNull_Handle *handleP);
// Finalize and free this previously allocated instance object, setting the referenced handle to NULL
 
Void GateProcessSupportNull_destruct(GateProcessSupportNull_Struct *structP);
// Finalize the instance object inside the provided structure
 
GateProcessSupportNull_enter()  // instance

Enter this gate

C synopsis target-domain
IArg GateProcessSupportNull_enter(GateProcessSupportNull_Handle handle);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created GateProcessSupportNull instance object
DETAILS
Each gate provider can implement mutual exclusion using different algorithms; e.g., disabling all scheduling, disabling the scheduling of all threads below a specified "priority level", suspending the caller when the gate has been entered by another thread and re-enabling it when the the other thread leaves the gate. However, in all cases, after this method returns that caller has exclusive access to the data protected by this gate.
A thread may reenter a gate without blocking or failing.
RETURNS
Returns a "key" that is used to leave this gate; this value is used to restore thread preemption to the state that existed just prior to entering this gate.
 
GateProcessSupportNull_getReferenceCount()  // instance

Get the number of processes with references to this Gate

C synopsis target-domain
Int GateProcessSupportNull_getReferenceCount(GateProcessSupportNull_Handle handle, Error_Block *err);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created GateProcessSupportNull instance object
err — Pointer to Error.Block
RETURNS
Returns the number of processes that possess a reference to this gate, or GETREFCOUNT_FAILED if an error occured. A 'toy' implementation should always return 0.
 
GateProcessSupportNull_leave()  // instance

Leave this gate

C synopsis target-domain
Void GateProcessSupportNull_leave(GateProcessSupportNull_Handle handle, IArg key);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created GateProcessSupportNull instance object
key — the value returned by a matching call to enter
DETAILS
This method is only called by threads that have previously entered this gate via enter. After this method returns, the caller must not access the data structure protected by this gate (unless the caller has entered the gate more than once and other calls to leave remain to balance the number of previous calls to enter).
