pthread_mutex_destroy(2) OSS System Calls Reference Manual
NAME
pthread_mutex_destroy - Destroys a mutex
LIBRARY
G-series native OSS processes: /G/system/sysnn/zsptsrl
32-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes that use the POSIX User Thread Model library:
/G/system/zdllnnn/zputdll
64-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes that use the POSIX User Thread Model library:
/G/system/zdllnnn/yputdll
H-series and J-series OSS processes that use the Standard POSIX Threads library:
/G/system/zdllnnn/zsptdll
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h> | #include <spthread.h>
/* pthread.h is required to use POSIX User Thread Model library */
/* spthread.h is required to use Standard POSIX Threads library */
int pthread_mutex_destroy(
pthread_mutex_t *mutex);
PARAMETERS
mutex Specifies the mutex to be destroyed.
DESCRIPTION
This function destroys the specified mutex by uninitializing it. Call this function when your pro-
gram no longer needs the specified mutex object.
After this function is called, the system might reclaim the storage used by the destroyed mutex.
Destroying an initialized mutex that is unlocked is safe. Destroying a locked mutex is not
allowed.
On systems running H06.21 or later H-series RVUs or J06.10 or later J-series RVUs, you can use
either the POSIX User Thread Model library or the Standard POSIX Threads library for threaded
applications.
To use this function in a threaded application that uses the POSIX User Thread Model library on
systems running H06.21 or later RVUs or J06.10 or later RVUs, you must perform all of the fol-
lowing tasks:
• Include the pthread.h header file in the application.
• Compile the application using the _PUT_MODEL_ feature test macro or equivalent
compiler command option.
• Link the application to the zputdll library (/G/system/zdllnnn/zputdll).
On systems running H06.24 or later H-series RVUs or J06.13 or later J-series RVUs, you can use
the POSIX User Thread Model library with 32-bit or 64-bit threaded applications.
To use this function in a 32-bit threaded application that uses the POSIX User Thread Model
library on systems running H06.24 or later RVUs or J06.13 or later RVUs, perform the same
tasks (described above) used to enable the POSIX User Thread Model library on systems running
H06.21/J06.10 or later RVUs.
To use this function in a 64-bit threaded application that uses the POSIX User Thread Model
library on systems running H06.24 or later RVUs or J06.13 or later RVUs, you must perform all
of the following tasks:
• Include the pthread.h header file in the application.
