int mtx_trylock( mtx_t *mutex ); | (since C11) |
Tries to lock the mutex pointed to by mutex without blocking. Returns immediately if the mutex is already locked.
Prior calls to mtx_unlock on the same mutex synchronize-with this operation (if this operation succeeds), and all lock/unlock operations on any given mutex form a single total order (similar to the modification order of an atomic).
| mutex | - | pointer to the mutex to lock |
thrd_success if successful, thrd_busy if the mutex has already been locked, thrd_error if an error occurs.
