Contract Management Library Functions   ctstatusread(3CONTRACT)



     uintt ctstatusgetcritical(ctstathdlt stathdl);


DESCRIPTION
     These functions operate on contract status file  descriptors
     obtained  from the contract(4) file system and status object
     handles returned by ctstatusread().


     The ctstatusread() function reads  the  contract's  status
     and  initializes  the  status  object  handle  pointed to by
     stathdlp. After a successful call to  ctstatusread(),  the
     caller  is  responsible for calling ctstatusfree() on this
     status object handle when it has finished using it.  Because
     the  amount of information available for a contract might be
     large, the detail argument allows the caller to specify  how
     much  information ctstatusread() should obtain. A value of
     CTDCOMON fetches only those data accessible by  the  func-
     tions on this manual page. CTDFIXED fetches CTDCOMON data
     as well as fixed-size contract type-specific  data.  CTDAL
     fetches  CTDFIXED  data  as well as variable lengthed data,
     such as arrays. See the  manual  pages  for  contract  type-
     specific  status accessor functions for information concern-
     ing which data are fetched by CTDFIXED and CTDAL.


     The ctstatusfree() function frees any  storage  associated
     with the specified status object handle.


     The remaining  functions  all  return  contract  information
     obtained from a status object.


     The ctstatusgetid() function returns the contract's ID.


     The ctstatusgetzoneid() function returns  the  contract's
     creator's  zone  ID,  or  -1 if the creator's zone no longer
     exists.


     The ctstatusgettype()  function  returns  the  contract's
     type. The string should be neither modified nor freed.


     The ctstatusgetstate() function returns the state of  the
     contract. Valid state values are:

     CTSOWNED        a contract that is  currently  owned  by  a
                      process

Contract Management Library Functions   ctstatusread(3CONTRACT)



     CTSINHERITED    a contract that has  been  inherited  by  a
                      regent process contract


     CTSORPHAN       a contract that has no owner  and  has  not
                      been inherited


     CTSDEAD         a contract that is no longer in effect  and
                      will be automatically removed from the sys-
                      tem as soon as the last reference to it  is
                      release  (for  example, an open status file
                      descriptor)



     The ctstatusgetholder() function returns the  process  ID
     of  the contract's owner if the contract is in the CTSOWNED
     state, or the ID of the regent process contract if the  con-
     tract is in the CTSINHERITED state.


     The ctstatusgetnevents() function returns the  number  of
     unacknowledged  critical  events  on  the  contract's  event
     queue.


     The ctstatusgetntime() function  returns  the  amount  of
     time remaining (in seconds) before the ongoing exit negotia-
     tion times out, or -1 if there is no negotiation ongoing.


     The ctstatusgetqtime() function  returns  the  amount  of
     time  remaining (in seconds) in the quantum before the ongo-
     ing exit negotiation times out, or -1 if there is  no  nego-
     tiation ongoing.


     The ctstatusgetnevid() function returns the event  ID  of
     the ongoing negotiation, or 0 if there are none.


     The ctstatusgetcookie() function returns the cookie  term
     of the contract.


     The ctstatusgetcritical() function is used  to  read  the
     critical  event  set term. The value is a collection of bits
     as described in the contract type's manual page.

Contract Management Library Functions   ctstatusread(3CONTRACT)



     The ctstatusgetinformative() function is used to read the
     informative  event  set  term.  The value is a collection of
     bits as described in the contract type's manual page.

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion, ctstatusread() returns 0. Oth-
     erwise, it returns a non-zero error value.


     Upon     successful     completion,      ctstatusgetid(),
     ctstatusgettype(),                ctstatusgetholder(),
     ctstatusgetstate(),              ctstatusgetnevents(),
     ctstatusgetntime(),                ctstatusgetqtime(),
     ctstatusgetnevid(),               ctstatusgetcookie(),
     ctstatusgetcritical(),   and  ctstatusgetinformative()
     return the data described in the DESCRIPTION.

ERORS
     The ctstatusread() function will fail if:

     EINVAL    The detail level specified is invalid.


ATRIBUTES
     See attributes(5) for descriptions of the  following  attri-
     butes:



     
           ATRIBUTE TYPE               ATRIBUTE VALUE
