exclusive(purpose: nil, compatible: [], after_compatible: [], no_wait: false) Link
Execute the supplied block while holding the Exclusive lock. If no_wait
is set and the lock is not immediately available, returns nil
without yielding. Otherwise, returns the result of the block.
See start_exclusive
for other options.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/concurrency/share_lock.rb, line 148 def exclusive(purpose: nil, compatible: [], after_compatible: [], no_wait: false) if start_exclusive(purpose: purpose, compatible: compatible, no_wait: no_wait) begin yield ensure stop_exclusive(compatible: after_compatible) end end end
sharing() Link
Execute the supplied block while holding the Share lock.
start_exclusive(purpose: nil, compatible: [], no_wait: false) Link
Returns false if no_wait
is set and the lock is not immediately available. Otherwise, returns true after the lock has been acquired.
purpose
and compatible
work together; while this thread is waiting for the exclusive lock, it will yield its share (if any) to any other attempt whose purpose
appears in this attempt’s compatible
list. This allows a “loose” upgrade, which, being less strict, prevents some classes of deadlocks.
For many resources, loose upgrades are sufficient: if a thread is awaiting a lock, it is not running any other code. With purpose
matching, it is possible to yield only to other threads whose activity will not interfere.

stop_exclusive(compatible: []) Link
Relinquish the exclusive lock. Must only be called by the thread that called start_exclusive
(and currently holds the lock).
