### 2.30 `omp_set_lock` – Wait for and set simple lock

Description:

  Before setting a simple lock, the lock variable must be initialized by `omp_init_lock`. The calling thread is blocked until the lock is available. If the lock is already held by the current thread, a deadlock occurs.

C/C++:

  Prototype: | `void omp_set_lock(omp_lock_t *lock);`

Fortran:

  Interface: | `subroutine omp_set_lock(svar)`
  | `integer(omp_lock_kind), intent(inout) :: svar`
