putchar_unlocked#

Synopsis#

#include <stdio.h>

int getc_unlocked(FILE *stream);

int getchar_unlocked(void);

int putc_unlocked(int c, FILE *stream);

int putchar_unlocked(int c);

Status#

Partially implemented

Conformance#

IEEE Std 1003.1-2017

Description#

Versions of the functions getc(), getchar(), putc(), and putchar() respectively named getc_unlocked(), getchar_unlocked(),putc_unlocked(), and putchar_unlocked() shall be provided which are functionally equivalent to the original versions, with the exception that they are not required to be implemented in a fully thread-safe manner. They shall be thread-safe when used within a scope protected by flockfile() (or ftrylockfile()) and funlockfile().

These functions can safely be used in a multithreaded program if and only if they are called while the invoking thread owns the ( FILE *) object, as is the case after a successful call to the flockfile() or ftrylockfile() functions.

If getc_unlocked() or putc_unlocked() are implemented as macros they may evaluate stream more than once, so the stream argument should never be an expression with side effects.

Return value#

See getc(), getchar(), putc(), and putchar().
