<P>The <B>pthread_mutexattr_getpshared</B> function shall obtain the
value of the <I>process-shared</I> attribute from the attributes
object referenced by <I>attr</I>. The <B>pthread_mutexattr_setpshared</B>
function shall set the <I>process-shared</I> attribute in an
initialized attributes object referenced by <I>attr</I>.
</P>
<P>The <I>process-shared</I> attribute is set to
<B>PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED</B> to permit a mutex to be operated upon
by any thread that has access to the memory where the mutex is
allocated, even if the mutex is allocated in memory that is shared by
multiple processes. If the <I>process-shared</I> attribute is
<B>PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE</B>, the mutex shall only be operated upon
by threads created within the same process as the thread that
initialized the mutex; if threads of differing processes attempt to
operate on such a mutex, the behavior is undefined. The default value
of the attribute shall be <B>PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE</B>.
</P>
<P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> defines <B>_POSIX_THREAD_PROCESS_SHARED</B> in
pthread.h as -1 to indicate that these routines are implemented but
the process shared option is not supported.</P>

<P>Upon successful completion, <B>pthread_mutexattr_getpshared</B>
shall return zero and store the value of the <I>process-shared</I>
attribute of <I>attr</I> into the object referenced by the <I>pshared</I>
parameter. Otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate
the error.
