*section);
The
ck_epoch_begin(3)
function will mark the beginning of an epoch-protected code section. An
epoch-protected code section is delimited by a call to the
ck_epoch_end(3)
function. Though recursion is allowed for epoch-protected sections,
recursive calls will be associated with the
ck_epoch_begin(3) that is at
the top of the call stack. If a section is passed, then recursion on a
record will cause the epoch to be refreshed on entry of every protected
section.
This function has no return value.
The object pointed to by epoch must have
been previously initiated via
ck_epoch_init(3). The object
pointed to by record must have been previously
registered via
ck_epoch_register(3).
