/******************************************************************************* * * FUNCTION: AcpiAcquireGlobalLock * * PARAMETERS: Timeout - How long the caller is willing to wait * Handle - Where the handle to the lock is returned * (if acquired) * * RETURN: Status * * DESCRIPTION: Acquire the ACPI Global Lock * * Note: Allows callers with the same thread ID to acquire the global lock * multiple times. In other words, externally, the behavior of the global lock * is identical to an AML mutex. On the first acquire, a new handle is * returned. On any subsequent calls to acquire by the same thread, the same * handle is returned. * ******************************************************************************/
