NAME
       ck_epoch_begin -- begin epoch-protected segment of execution

LIBRARY
       Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<ck_epoch.h>

       void
       ck_epoch_begin(ck_epoch_record_t	*record, ck_epoch_section_t *section);

DESCRIPTION
       The ck_epoch_begin(3) function will mark	the beginning of an epoch-pro-
       tected 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.

RETURN VALUES
       This function has no return value.

ERRORS
       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  pre-
       viously registered via ck_epoch_register(3).
