lock(2) — AMIX 2.01



lock(2)                   SYSTEM CALLS                    lock(2)



NAME
     lock - locks a process in primary memory.

SYNOPSIS
     int lock(flag)
     cc [flag ...] file ... -lx

DESCRIPTION
     If the flag argument is nonzero, the process executing  this
     call  will not be swapped unless it is required to grow.  If
     the argument is zero, the process is  unlocked.   This  call
     may  only  be  executed by the super-user.  If someone other
     than the super-user tries to execute this call, a  value  of
     -1 is returned and the errno is set to EPERM.
