pthread_mutexattr_getrobust () +function places the value of the robustness attribute of +the mutex attributes object referred to by +.I attr +in +.IR *robustness . +The +.BR pthread_mutexattr_setrobust () +function sets the value of the robustness attribute of +the mutex attributes object referred to by +.I attr +to the value specified in +.IR *robustness . +.PP +The robustness attribute specifies the behavior of the mutex when +the owning thread dies without unlocking the mutex. +The following values are valid for +.IR robustness : +.TP +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED +This is the default value for a mutex attributes object. +If a mutex is initialized with the +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED +attribute and its owner dies without unlocking it, +the mutex remains locked afterwards and any future attempts to call +.BR pthread_mutex_lock (3) +on the mutex will block indefinitely. +.TP +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST +If a mutex is initialized with the +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST +attribute and its owner dies without unlocking it, +any future attempts to call +.BR pthread_mutex_lock (3) +on this mutex will succeed and return +.B EOWNERDEAD +to indicate that the original owner no longer exists and the mutex is in +an inconsistent state. +Usually after +.B EOWNERDEAD +is returned, the next owner should call +.BR pthread_mutex_consistent (3) +on the acquired mutex to make it consistent again before using it any further. +.IP +If the next owner unlocks the mutex using +.BR pthread_mutex_unlock (3) +before making it consistent, the mutex will be permanently unusable and any +subsequent attempts to lock it using +.BR pthread_mutex_lock (3) +will fail with the error +.BR ENOTRECOVERABLE . +The only permitted operation on such a mutex is +.BR pthread_mutex_destroy (3). +.IP +If the next owner terminates before calling +.BR pthread_mutex_consistent (3), +further +.BR pthread_mutex_lock (3) +operations on this mutex will still return +.BR EOWNERDEAD . +.PP +Note that the +.I attr +argument of +.BR pthread_mutexattr_getrobust () +and +.BR pthread_mutexattr_setrobust () +should refer to a mutex attributes object that was initialized by +.BR pthread_mutexattr_init (3), +otherwise the behavior is undefined. +.SH RETURN VALUE +On success, these functions return 0. +On error, they return a positive error number. +.PP +In the glibc implementation, +.BR pthread_mutexattr_getrobust () +always return zero. +.SH ERRORS +.TP +.B EINVAL +A value other than +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED +or +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST +was passed to +.BR pthread_mutexattr_setrobust (). +.SH VERSIONS +In the Linux implementation, +when using process-shared robust mutexes, a waiting thread also receives the +.B EOWNERDEAD +notification if the owner of a robust mutex performs an +.BR execve (2) +without first unlocking the mutex. +POSIX.1 does not specify this detail, +but the same behavior also occurs in at least some +.\" E.g., Solaris, according to its manual page +other implementations. +.SH STANDARDS +POSIX.1-2008. +.SH HISTORY +glibc 2.12. +POSIX.1-2008. +.PP +Before the addition of +.BR pthread_mutexattr_getrobust () +and +.BR pthread_mutexattr_setrobust () +to POSIX, +glibc defined the following equivalent nonstandard functions if +.B _GNU_SOURCE +was defined: +.PP +.nf +.B [[deprecated]] +.BI "int pthread_mutexattr_getrobust_np(const pthread_mutexattr_t *" attr , +.BI " int *" robustness ");" +.B [[deprecated]] +.BI "int pthread_mutexattr_setrobust_np(const pthread_mutexattr_t *" attr , +.BI " int " robustness ");" +.fi +.PP +Correspondingly, the constants +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED_NP +and +.B PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NP +were also defined. +.PP +These GNU-specific APIs, which first appeared in glibc 2.4, +are nowadays obsolete and should not be used in new programs; +since glibc 2.34 these APIs are marked as deprecated. +.SH EXAMPLES +The program below demonstrates the use of the robustness attribute of a +mutex attributes object. +In this program, a thread holding the mutex +dies prematurely without unlocking the mutex. +The main thread subsequently acquires the mutex +successfully and gets the error +.BR EOWNERDEAD , +after which it makes the mutex consistent. +.PP +The following shell session shows what we see when running this program: +.PP +.in +4n +.EX +$ \fB./a.out\fP
