rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier(3RSM)		      Remote Shared Memory Library Functions		      rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier(3RSM)

NAME

       rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier, rsm_memseg_import_destroy_barrier - create or destroy barrier for imported segment

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lrsm [ library... ]
       #include <rsmapi.h>

       int rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier(rsm_memseg_import_handle_t memseg, rsm_barrier_type_t type, rsmapi_barrier_t *barrier);

       int rsm_memseg_import_destroy_barrier(rsmapi_barrier_t *barrier);

DESCRIPTION

       The rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier() function creates a barrier for the imported segment specified by memseg. The barrier type is specified
       by the type argument. Currently, only RSM_BAR_DEFAULT is supported as a barrier type. A handle to the barrier is obtained through the  bar-
       rier argument and is used in subsequent barrier calls.

       The rsm_memseg_import_destroy_barrier() function deallocates all the resources associated with the barrier.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error value is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier() and rsm_memseg_import_destroy_barrier() functions can return the following errors:

       RSMERR_BAD_SEG_HNDL     Invalid segment handle.

       RSMERR_BAD_BARRIER_PTR  Invalid barrier pointer.

       The rsm_memseg_import_init_barrier() function can return the following errors:

       RSMERR_INSUFFICIENT_MEM	       Insufficient memory.

NAME

       rsm_memseg_import_open_barrier,	rsm_memseg_import_order_barrier,  rsm_memseg_import_close_barrier  -  remote memory access error detection
       functions

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lrsm [ library... ]
       #include <rsmapi.h>

       int rsm_memseg_import_open_barrier(rsmapi_barrier_t *barrier);

       int rsm_memseg_import_order_barrier(rsmapi_barrier_t *barrier);

       int rsm_memseg_import_close_barrier(rsmapi_barrier_t *barrier);

DESCRIPTION

       The  rsm_memseg_import_open_barrier() and  rsm_memseg_import_close_barrier() functions provide a means of remote memory access error detec-
       tion  when the barrier mode is set to RSM_BARRIER_MODE_EXPLICIT. Open and close barrier operations define a span-of-time interval for error
       detection. A successful close barrier guarantees that remote memory access covered between the open barrier and	close  barrier	have  com-
       pleted  successfully. Any individual failures which may have occured between the open barrier and close barrier occur without any notifica-
       tion and the failure is not reported until the close barrier.

       The rsm_memseg_import_order_barrier() function imposes the order-of-write completion whereby, with an order barrier, the  write	operations
       issued  before the order barrier are all completed before the operations after the order barrier. Effectively, with the order barrier call,
       all writes within one barrier scope are ordered with respect to those in another barrier scope.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error value is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The rsm_memseg_import_open_barrier(), rsm_memseg_import_order_barrier(), and rsm_memseg_import_close_barrier()  functions  can  return  the
       following errors:

       RSMERR_BAD_SEG_HNDL	       Invalid segment handle

       RSMERR_BAD_BARRIER_PTR	       Invalid barrier pointer.

       The rsm_memseg_close_barrier() and rsm_memseg_order_barrier() functions can return the following errors:

       RSMERR_BARRIER_UNINITIALIZED    Barrier not initialized.

       RSMERR_BARRIER_NOT_OPENED       Barrier not opened.

       RSMERR_BARRIER_FAILURE	       Memory access error.

       RSMERR_CONN_ABORTED	       Connection aborted.
