.SH "NAME"
wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout \- sleep until a condition gets true or a timeout elapses\&. The condition is checked under the lock\&. This is expected to be called with the lock taken\&.

.SH "ARGUMENTS"

the waitqueue to wait on
.RE
.PP
\fIcondition\fR
.RS 4
a C expression for the event to wait for
.RE
.PP
\fIlock\fR
.RS 4
a locked spinlock_t, which will be released before
\fBschedule\fR
and reacquired afterwards\&.
.RE

\fItimeout\fR
.RS 4
timeout, in jiffies
.RE
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The process is put to sleep (TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) until the
\fIcondition\fR
evaluates to true or signal is received\&. The
\fIcondition\fR
is checked each time the waitqueue
\fIwq\fR
is woken up\&.
.PP
\fBwake_up\fR
has to be called after changing any variable that could change the result of the wait condition\&.
.PP
This is supposed to be called while holding the lock\&. The lock is dropped before going to sleep and is reacquired afterwards\&.
.PP
The function returns 0 if the
\fItimeout\fR
elapsed, \-ERESTARTSYS if it was interrupted by a signal, and the remaining jiffies otherwise if the condition evaluated to true before the timeout elapsed\&.
