Library summary

Access globally registered names.

Description

This module provides support for registering, looking up, and unregistering names in the global module. For more information, see kernel:global.

Notice that the functions below perform an RPC using an open file descriptor provided by the caller. This file descriptor must not be used for other traffic during the global operation, as the function can then receive unexpected data and fail.

Exports

Types:

int fd;
int *count;
