NAME
       pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared, pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared - get or set process-shared attribute of read-write lock attributes object

SYNOPSIS
       cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ library... ]
       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared(const pthread_rwlockattr_t *restrict attr, int *restrict pshared);

       int pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared(pthread_rwlockattr_t *attr, int pshared);

       The  process-shared  attribute  is  set	to   PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED to permit a read-write lock to be operated upon by any thread that has
       access to the memory where the read-write lock is allocated,  even if the read-write lock is allocated in memory that is shared by multiple
       processes.  If  the process-shared attribute is	PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE, the read-write lock will only be operated upon by threads created
       within the same process as the thread that initialised the read-write lock; if threads of differing processes attempt to operate on such  a
       read-write lock, the behaviour is undefined. The default value of the process-shared attribute is  PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE.

       The  pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() function obtains the value of the process-shared attribute from the initialised attributes object ref-
       erenced by attr. The  pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared() function is used to set the process-shared attribute  in  an  initialised	attributes
       object referenced by attr.

       If successful, the  pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared() function returns  0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.

       Upon  successful  completion,  the  pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() returns  0 and stores the value of the process-shared attribute of attr
       into the object referenced by the pshared parameter. Otherwise an error number is returned to indicate the error.

       The pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() and pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared() functions will fail if:

       EINVAL	       The value specified by attr  or pshared is invalid.
