GETC_UNLOCKED(3)          OpenBSD Programmer's Manual         GETC_UNLOCKED(3)

NAME
     getc_unlocked, getchar_unlocked - get next character from stream, effi-
     ciently



SYNOPSIS
     #include <stdio.h>

     int
     getc_unlocked(FILE *stream);

     int
     getchar_unlocked();

DESCRIPTION
     The getc_unlocked() and getchar_unlocked() functions are equivalent to
     their locked counterparts, getc(3) and getchar(3).  However,
     getc_unlocked() and getchar_unlocked() assume that the relevant stream
     has either been previous locked with flockfile(3),  or that it will not
     be accessed by any other thread.

RETURN VALUES
     The return values are as described for getc(3) and getchar(3).

SEE ALSO
     getc(3),  getchar(3)

STANDARDS
     getc_unlocked() and getchar_unlocked() conform to ISO/IEC 9945-1 AN-
     SI/IEEE (``POSIX'') Std 1003.1 Second Edition 1996-07-12.
