simple_lock_terminate(9r)			     simple_lock_terminate(9r)

NAME
       simple_lock_terminate - General: Terminates, using a simple lock

SYNOPSIS
       #include <kern/lock.h>

       void simple_lock_terminate(
	       simple_lock_t slock_ptr );

ARGUMENTS
       Specifies  a  pointer  to a simple lock structure. You can declare this
       simple lock structure by using the decl_simple_lock_data routine.

DESCRIPTION
       The simple_lock_terminate routine determines that the kernel module  is
       done using the simple lock permanently. The kernel module must free the
       simple lock (that is, the kernel module does not hold the lock)	before
       calling simple_lock_terminate. The kernel module must not reference the
       specified simple lock after calling simple_lock_terminate.

NOTES
       You must call  simple_lock_init	(once  only)  prior  to	 calling  sim‐
       ple_lock_terminate  to  initialize  the	simple	lock structure for the
       resource. A resource, from the kernel module's standpoint, is data that
       more  than one kernel thread can manipulate. You can store the resource
       in global variables and in data structure members.

RETURN VALUES
       None
