NAME

6       pthread_mutexattr_init,  pthread_mutexattr_destroy - initialize and de‐
7       stroy a mutex attributes object
8

LIBRARY

10       POSIX threads library (libpthread, -lpthread)
11

SYNOPSIS

13       #include <pthread.h>
14
15       int pthread_mutexattr_init(pthread_mutexattr_t *attr);
16       int pthread_mutexattr_destroy(pthread_mutexattr_t *attr);
17

DESCRIPTION

19       The pthread_mutexattr_init() function initializes the mutex  attributes
20       object  pointed  to  by attr with default values for all attributes de‐
21       fined by the implementation.
22
23       The results of initializing an already initialized mutex attributes ob‐
24       ject are undefined.
25
26       The pthread_mutexattr_destroy() function destroys a mutex attribute ob‐
27       ject (making it uninitialized).  Once a  mutex  attributes  object  has
28       been destroyed, it can be reinitialized with pthread_mutexattr_init().
29
30       The  results of destroying an uninitialized mutex attributes object are
31       undefined.

RETURN VALUE

34       On success, these functions return 0.  On error, they return a positive
35       error number.

NOTES

44       Subsequent  changes  to  a  mutex attributes object do not affect mutex
45       that have already been initialized using that object.
