<b>Description:</b>
The mutex object referenced by mutex is locked by calling <code>pthread_mutex_lock()</code>.
If the mutex is already locked, the calling thread blocks until the mutex
becomes available. This operation returns with the mutex object referenced
by mutex in the locked state with the calling thread as its owner.
</p>
<p>
If the mutex type is <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL</code>, deadlock detection is not provided.
Attempting to relock the mutex causes deadlock. If a thread attempts to unlock
a mutex that it has not locked or a mutex which is unlocked, undefined behavior
results.

locked or a mutex which is unlocked, an error will be returned.
</p>
<p>
If the mutex type is <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE</code>, then the mutex maintains the concept
of a lock count. When a thread successfully acquires a mutex for the first time,
the lock count is set to one. Every time a thread relocks this mutex, the lock count
is incremented by one. Each time the thread unlocks the mutex, the lock count is
decremented by one. When the lock count reaches zero, the mutex becomes available
for other threads to acquire. If a thread attempts to unlock a mutex that it has
not locked or a mutex which is unlocked, an error will be returned.

If a signal is delivered to a thread waiting for a mutex, upon return from
the signal handler the thread resumes waiting for the mutex as if it was

<b>Description:</b>
<p>
The <code>pthread_mutex_unlock()</code> function releases the mutex object referenced
by mutex. The manner in which a mutex is released is dependent upon the
mutex's type attribute. If there are threads blocked on the mutex object
referenced by mutex when <code>pthread_mutex_unlock()</code> is called, resulting in
the mutex becoming available, the scheduling policy is used to determine
which thread shall acquire the mutex. (In the case of <code>PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE</code>
mutexes, the mutex becomes available when the count reaches zero and the
calling thread no longer has any locks on this mutex).
