    Problem Text

    These tests are unresolved because the implementation requires that the effective
    user id of the calling process be root. The test passes if the test binary is made
    suid root, as the suite already does for T.pthread_mutex_init.


    Test Output

    ******************************************************************************************************
    /tset/PTHR.os/all/pthread_mutex_lock/T.pthread_mutex_lock 1 Unresolved

    Test Information:
    If _POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_INHERIT is defined:
    when a thread makes a call to pthread_mutex_lock() on a mutex
    that was initialized with the PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT protocol
    attribute and the calling thread is blocked because the mutex
    is owned by another thread,
    then that owner thread shall inherit the priority level of
    the calling thread as long as it continues to own the mutex.
    The implementation shall update the priority of the owner
    thread to the maximum of its assigned priority and all its
    inherited priorities. Furthermore, if this owner thread itself
    becomes blocked on another mutex, the same priority inheritance
    effect shall be propagated to this other owner thread, in a
    recursive manner.
    Posix Ref: Component PTHREAD_MUTEX_LOCK
    Assertion 9945-1:1996 13.6.1.2-1(C)

    ******************************************************************************************************
    /tset/PTHR.os/all/pthread_mutex_lock/T.pthread_mutex_lock 9 Unresolved

    Test Information:
    If the feature test macro _POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_PROTECT
    is defined:
    when the mutex referenced by the mutex argument was created
    with the protocol attribute value of PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT
    and the priority of the calling thread is higher than the
    current priority ceiling of the mutex,
    then a call to pthread_mutex_lock(mutex) shall fail
    and return EINVAL without acquiring a lock on the mutex.
    Posix Ref: Component PTHREAD_MUTEX_LOCK
    Assertion 9945-1:1996 11.3.3.4-9(C)
