- don't declare nonexistent function sleep(). - don't include <sys/errno.h> explicitly. sleep() should be nuked some more, e.g., this man page should not be named after a nonexistent function.

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/param.h>
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/systm.h>
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/proc.h>
|
|

.Ft void

|
.Fn wakeup_one "void *ident"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The functions
|
|
.Fn tsleep
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn wakeup
|
|
handle event-based process blocking. If a process must wait for an
|
|
external event, it is put on sleep by
|
|
.Nm tsleep .
|
|
The parameter
|
|
.Ar ident
|
|
is an arbitrary address that uniquely identifies the event on which
|
|
the process is being asleep. All processes sleeping on a single
|
|
.Ar ident
|
|
are woken up later by
|
|
.Nm wakeup ,
|
|
often called from inside an interrupt routine, to indicate that the
|
|
resource the process was blocking on is available now.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The parameter
|
|
.Ar wmesg
|
|
is a string describing the sleep condition for tools like
|
|
.Xr ps 1 .
|
|
Due to the limited space of those programs to display arbitrary strings,
|
|
this message should not be longer than 6 characters.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wakeup_one
|
|
function is used to make the first process in the queue that is
|
|
sleeping on the parameter
|
|
.Fa ident
|
|
runnable. This can prevent the system from becoming saturated
|
|
when a large number of processes are sleeping on the same address,
|
|
but only one of them can actually do any useful work when made
|
|
runnable.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm Tsleep
|
|
is the general sleep call. Suspends the current process until a wakeup is
|
|
performed on the specified identifier. The process will then be made
|
|
runnable with the specified
|
|
.Ar priority .
|
|
Sleeps at most
|
|
.Ar timo
|
|
\&/ hz seconds (0 means no timeout). If
|
|
.Ar pri
|
|
includes the
|
|
.Dv PCATCH
|
|
flag, signals are checked before and after sleeping, else signals are
|
|
not checked. Returns 0 if awakened,
|
|
.Dv EWOULDBLOCK
|
|
if the timeout expires. If
|
|
.Dv PCATCH
|
|
is set and a signal needs to be delivered,
|
|
.Dv ERESTART
|
|
is returned if the current system call should be restarted if
|
|
possible, and
|
|
.Dv EINTR
|
|
is returned if the system call should be interrupted by the signal
|
|
.Pq return Dv EINTR .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm Sleep
|
|
is the traditional form. It doesn't let you specify a timeout nor a
|
|
.Ar wmesg ,
|
|
hence its use is deprecated.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
See above.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The sleep/wakeup process synchronization mechanism is very old. It
|
|
appeared in a very early version of Unix.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm Tsleep
|
|
appeared in
|
|
.Bx 4.4 .
