votequorum_dispatch (3)

#include <corosync/votequorum.h>

int votequorum_dispatch(votequorum_handle_t handle, votequorum_dispatch_t *dispatch_types);

The votequorum_dispatch function is used to dispatch configuration changes.

Each application may have several connections to the votequorum API. Each application uses the handle argument to uniquely identify the connection.

The dispatch_types argument is used to identify the type of dispatch to execute. The possible types are defined by the structure:

• typedef enum {
          CS_DISPATCH_ONE,
          CS_DISPATCH_ALL,
          CS_DISPATCH_BLOCKING
  } votequorum_dispatch_t;
  

The dispatch values have the following meanings:

CS_DISPATCH_ONE

Dispatch at least one callback, blocking until the callback is dispatched.

CS_DISPATCH_ALL

Dispatch all waiting callbacks without blocking to wait for any callbacks.

CS_DISPATCH_BLOCKING

Dispatch all callbacks blocking indefinitely. This is used in a threaded program where a thread is created, and then votequorum_dispatch() is called immediately from the created thread to execute callbacks.

This call returns the CS_OK value if successful, otherwise an error is returned.

The errors are undocumented.
