go-lock
A Go library providing efficient read-write mutexes with trylock, timeout, and no-starvation mechanisms.
What is go-lock?
go-lock is a Go library that implements advanced read-write mutexes with additional functionality beyond the standard sync package. It solves problems where traditional mutexes can cause system deadlocks or performance issues by providing non-blocking trylock mechanisms, timeout support, and starvation-free read-write locks.
Go developers building high-concurrency applications who need more control over locking behavior than provided by native sync.RWMutex, particularly those dealing with potential deadlock scenarios or requiring non-blocking lock acquisition.
Developers choose go-lock for its starvation-free read-write locks and flexible trylock mechanisms that prevent system blocking, offering better control over resource contention compared to standard Go synchronization primitives.
Overview
go-lock is a lock library implementing read-write mutex and read-write trylock without starvation
