rw_unlock Syntax

#include <synch.h>  (or #include <thread.h>)

int rw_unlock(rwlock_t *rwlp);

The read-write lock must be locked, and the calling thread must hold the lock either for reading or writing. When any other threads are waiting for the read-write lock to become available, one of the threads is unblocked. For POSIX threads, see pthread_rwlock_unlock Syntax.
