  33 .Sh DESCRIPTION
  34 The
  35 .Fn pthread_mutexattr_getrobust
  36 and
  37 .Fn pthread_mtuexattr_setrobust
  38 functions obtain and set a mutex's
  39 .Em robust
  40 attribute, putting it in, or obtaining it from
  41 .Va robust .
  42 The valid values for
  43 .Va robust
  44 include:
  45 .Bl -tag -width Dv
  46 .It Sy PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED
  47 The mutex referred to by
  48 .Va attr
  49 is a traditional mutex.
  50 When a thread holding an intra-process lock or a process holding an
  51 inter-process lock crashes or terminates without unlocking the mutex, then the
  52 lock will be
  53 .Sy stalled .
  54 For another thread or process to obtain the lock, something else must
  55 unlock it.
  56 .It Sy PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST
  57 The mutex referred to by
  58 .Va attr
  59 is considered a robust mutex.
  60 When a process holding an inter-process lock crashes or terminates without
  61 unlocking the mutex, the attempt to lock it will return
  62 .Er EOWNERDEAD .
  63 This allows the new owner the chance to fix the internal state and call
  64 .Xr pthread_mutex_consistent 3C
  65 prior to unlocking the lock, allowing normal operation to proceed.
  66 Any crashes while in this state cause the next owner to obtain
  67 .Er EOWNERDEAD .
  68 .El
  69 .Sh RETURN VALUES
  70 Upon successful completion, the
  71 .Fn pthread_mutexattr_getrobust
  72 function will return
  73 .Sy 0
  74 and update
  75 .Fa robust
  76 with the current value of the robust attribute.
  77 Upon successful completion, the
  78 .Fn pthread_mutexattr_setrobust
  79 function will return
  80 .Sy 0
  81 and update the robust property of the attributes pointed to by
  82 .Va attr
  83 to
  84 .Va robust .
  85 If either function fails, an error code will be returned to indicate the
  86 error.
  87 Valid errors are defined below.
  88 .Sh ERRORS
  89 The
  90 .Fn pthread_mutexattr_getrobust
  91 function will fail if:
  92 .Bl -tag -width Er
  93 .It Er EINVAL
  94 .Va attr
  95 is invalid or a null pointer,
  96 .Va robust
  97 is a null pointer.

 100 The
 101 .Fn pthread_mutexattr_setrobust
 102 function will fail if:
 103 .Bl -tag -width Er
 104 .It Er EINVAL
 105 .Va attr
 106 is invalid or a null pointer,
 107 .Va robust
 108 is not one of
