+ * All modern pthread mutex implementations try to acquire a lock atomically
+ * in userland before going to sleep in kernel. Some spins on SMP systems
+ * before the sleeping.
+ *
+ * In Solaris since version 8 all mutex types spin before sleeping.
+ * The default spin count is 1000. It can be overridden using
+ * _THREAD_ADAPTIVE_SPIN=100 environment variable.
+ *
+ * In MacOSX all mutex types spin to acquire a lock protecting a mutex's
+ * internals. If the mutex is busy, thread calls Mach semaphore_wait().
+ *
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL lacks deadlock detection and is the fastest
+ * mutex type.
+ *
+ * Linux: No spinning. The internal name PTHREAD_MUTEX_TIMED_NP
+ * remains from the times when pthread_mutex_timedlock() was
+ * non-standard extension. Alias name: PTHREAD_MUTEX_FAST_NP.
+ * FreeBSD: No spinning.
+ *
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK is usually as fast as PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL
+ * yet has lightweight deadlock detection.
+ *
+ * Linux: No spinning. The internal name: PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP.
+ * FreeBSD: No spinning.
+ *
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE allows recursive locking.
+ *
+ * Linux: No spinning. The internal name: PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE_NP.
+ * FreeBSD: No spinning.
+ *
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP spins on SMP systems before sleeping.
+ *
+ * Linux: No deadlock detection. Dynamically changes a spin count
+ * for each mutex from 10 to 100 based on spin count taken
+ * previously.
+ *
+ * FreeBSD: Deadlock detection. The default spin count is 2000.
+ * It can be overriden using LIBPTHREAD_SPINLOOPS environment
+ * variable or by pthread_mutex_setspinloops_np(). If a lock
+ * is still busy, sched_yield() can be called on both UP and
+ * SMP systems. The default yield loop count is zero, but it
+ * can be set by LIBPTHREAD_YIELDLOOPS environment variable or
+ * by pthread_mutex_setyieldloops_np(). sched_yield() moves
+ * a thread to the end of CPU scheduler run queue and this is
+ * cheaper than removing the thread from the queue and sleeping.
+ *
+ * Solaris: No PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP .
+ * MacOSX: No PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP.
+ *
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_ELISION_NP is a Linux extension to elide locks using
+ * Intel Restricted Transactional Memory. It is the most suitable for
+ * rwlock pattern access because it allows simultaneous reads without lock.
+ * Supported since glibc 2.18.
+ *
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT is default mutex type.
+ *
+ * Linux: PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL.
+ * FreeBSD: PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK.
+ * Solaris: PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL.
+ * MacOSX: PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL.
