DESCRIPTION

Each of these functions has the same behavior as its counterpart without the "_unlocked" suffix, except that they do not use locking (they do not set locks themselves, and do not test for the presence of locks set by others) and hence are thread-unsafe. See flockfile(3).

ATTRIBUTES

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

Interface	Attribute	Value
getc_unlocked(), putc_unlocked(), clearerr_unlocked(), fflush_unlocked(), fgetc_unlocked(), fputc_unlocked(), fread_unlocked(), fwrite_unlocked(), fgets_unlocked(), fputs_unlocked(), getwc_unlocked(), fgetwc_unlocked(), fputwc_unlocked(), putwc_unlocked(), fgetws_unlocked(), fputws_unlocked()	Thread safety	MT-Safe race:stream
getchar_unlocked(), getwchar_unlocked()	Thread safety	MT-Unsafe race:stdin
putchar_unlocked(), putwchar_unlocked()	Thread safety	MT-Unsafe race:stdout
feof_unlocked(), ferror_unlocked(), fileno_unlocked()	Thread safety	MT-Safe

CONFORMING TO

The four functions getc_unlocked(), getchar_unlocked(), putc_unlocked(), putchar_unlocked() are in POSIX.1-2001 and POSIX.1-2008.

The nonstandard *_unlocked() variants occur on a few UNIX systems, and are available in recent glibc. They should probably not be used.
