NAME
       getc_unlocked, getchar_unlocked, putc_unlocked, putchar_unlocked - non-
       locking stdio functions

SYNOPSIS
       #include 

       int getc_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int getchar_unlocked(void);
       int putc_unlocked(int c, FILE *stream);
       int putchar_unlocked(int c);

       #define _BSD_SOURCE /* or _SVID_SOURCE */
       #include 

       void clearerr_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int feof_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int ferror_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int fileno_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int fflush_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int fgetc_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       int fputc_unlocked(int c, FILE *stream);
       size_t fread_unlocked(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t n,
			     FILE *stream);
       size_t fwrite_unlocked(const void *ptr, size_t size, size_t n,
			     FILE *stream);

       #define _GNU_SOURCE
       #include 

       char *fgets_unlocked(char *s, int n, FILE *stream);
       int fputs_unlocked(const char *s, FILE *stream);

       #define _GNU_SOURCE
       #include 

       wint_t getwc_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       wint_t getwchar_unlocked(void);
       wint_t fgetwc_unlocked(FILE *stream);
       wint_t fputwc_unlocked(wchar_t wc, FILE *stream);
       wint_t putwc_unlocked(wchar_t wc, FILE *stream);
       wint_t putwchar_unlocked(wchar_t wc);
       wchar_t *fgetws_unlocked(wchar_t *ws, int n, FILE *stream);
       int fputws_unlocked(const wchar_t *ws, FILE *stream);

DESCRIPTION
       Each of these functions has the same behavior as its counterpart  with
       out  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).

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

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