.TH MLOCKALL "3P" 2017 "IEEE/The Open Group" "POSIX Programmer's Manual"
.\"
.SH PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
.\"
.SH NAME
mlockall,
munlockall
\(em lock/unlock the address space of a process
(\fBREALTIME\fP)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <sys/mman.h>
.P
int mlockall(int \fIflags\fP);
int munlockall(void);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
\fImlockall\fR()
function shall cause all of the pages mapped by the address space of a
process to be memory-resident until unlocked or until the process exits
or
.IR exec s
another process image. The
.IR flags
argument determines whether the pages to be locked are those currently
mapped by the address space of the process, those that are mapped
in the future, or both. The
.IR flags
argument is constructed from the bitwise-inclusive OR of one or more
of the following symbolic constants, defined in
.IR <sys/mman.h> :
.IP MCL_CURRENT 12
Lock all of the pages currently mapped into the address space of the
process.
.IP MCL_FUTURE 12
Lock all of the pages that become mapped into the address space of the
process in the future, when those mappings are established.
.P
If MCL_FUTURE is specified, and the automatic locking of future
mappings eventually causes the amount of locked memory to exceed the
amount of available physical memory or any other
implementation-defined limit, the behavior is
implementation-defined. The manner in which the implementation
informs the application of these situations is also
implementation-defined.
.P
The
\fImunlockall\fR()
function shall unlock all currently mapped pages of the address space
of the process. Any pages that become mapped into the address space of
the process after a call to
\fImunlockall\fR()
shall not be locked, unless there is an intervening call to
\fImlockall\fR()
specifying MCL_FUTURE or a subsequent call to
\fImlockall\fR()
specifying MCL_CURRENT. If pages mapped into the address space of the
process are also mapped into the address spaces of other processes and
are locked by those processes, the locks established by the other
processes shall be unaffected by a call by this process to
\fImunlockall\fR().
.P
Upon successful return from the
\fImlockall\fR()
function that specifies MCL_CURRENT, all currently mapped pages of the
address space of the process shall be memory-resident and locked.
Upon return from the
\fImunlockall\fR()
function, all currently mapped pages of the address space of the process
shall be unlocked with respect to the address space of the process.
The memory residency of unlocked pages is unspecified.
.P
Appropriate privileges are required to lock process memory with
\fImlockall\fR().
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
Upon successful completion, the
\fImlockall\fR()
function shall return a value of zero. Otherwise, no additional memory
shall be locked, and the function shall return a value of \-1 and set
.IR errno
to indicate the error. The effect of failure of
\fImlockall\fR()
on previously existing locks in the address space is unspecified.
.P
If it is supported by the implementation, the
\fImunlockall\fR()
function shall always return a value of zero. Otherwise, the function
shall return a value of \-1 and set
.IR errno
to indicate the error.
.SH ERRORS
The
\fImlockall\fR()
function shall fail if:
.TP
.BR EAGAIN
Some or all of the memory identified by the operation could not be
locked when the call was made.
.TP
.BR EINVAL
The
.IR flags
argument is zero, or includes unimplemented flags.
.P
The
\fImlockall\fR()
function may fail if:
.TP
.BR ENOMEM
Locking all of the pages currently mapped into the address space of the
process would exceed an implementation-defined limit on the amount of
memory that the process may lock.
.TP
.BR EPERM
The calling process does not have appropriate privileges to perform
the requested operation.
