+.Sh NAME
+.Nm CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE
+.Nd define cohort type with specified lock types
+.Sh LIBRARY
+Concurrency Kit (libck, \-lck)
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In ck_cohort.h
+.Fn CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE "COHORT_NAME cohort_name" "LOCK_FXN global_lock_method" \
+"LOCK_FXN global_unlock_method" "BOOL_LOCK_FXN global_locked_method" \
+"BOOL_LOCK_FXN global_trylock_method" "LOCK_FXN local_lock_method" \
+"LOCK_FXN local_unlock_method" "BOOL_LOCK_FXN local_locked_method" "BOOL_LOCK_FXN local_trylock_method"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The ck_cohort.h header file does not define any cohort types. Instead, the user must use
+the CK_COHORT_PROTOTYPE or CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE macros to define any types
+they want to use. They must use CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE if they want their cohort type to have support
+for trylock operations. The CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE macro takes the following arguments:
+.Pp
+.Fa cohort_name
+: An identifier used for this cohort type. This will have to be passed to each
+of the other CK_COHORT macros.
+.br
+.Fa global_lock_method
+: The method that should be called to acquire the global lock
+.br
+.Fa global_unlock_method
+: The method that should be called to relinquish the global lock
+.br
+.Fa global_locked_method
+: This method should return true iff the global lock is acquired by a thread.
+.br
+.Fa global_trylock_method
+: The method that should be called to try to acquire the global lock.
+It should not block and return true iff the lock was successfully acquired.
+.br
+.Fa local_lock_method
+: The method that should be called to acquire the local lock
+.br
+.Fa local_unlock_method
+: The method that should be called to relinquish the local lock
+.br
+.Fa global_locked_method
+: This method should return true iff the global lock is acquired by a thread.
+.br
+.Fa local_trylock_method
+: The method that should be called to try to acquire the local lock.
+It should not block and return true iff the lock was successfully acquired.
+.Pp
+Instances of the defined cohort type can be declared as:
+.br
+ CK_COHORT_INSTANCE(cohort_name) cohort;
