құлып

A mechanism for enforcing a policy for serializing access to shared data. A thread or process uses a particular lock in order to gain access to shared memory protected by that lock. The locking and unlocking of data is voluntary in the sense that only the programmer knows what must be locked. See also data race, mutual exclusion, mutex lock, semaphore lock, single-lock strategy, spin lock.
