//:Mutual exclusion semaphore (mutex) for Linux
// The mutual-exclusion semaphore is a specialized version of the binary
// semaphore, designed to address issues inherent in mutual exclusion, such
// as recursive access to resources, priority inversion, and deletion safety
// The fundamental behavior of the mutual-exclusion semaphore is identical to
// except for the following restrictions: it can only be used for mutual
// exclusion and it can only be released by the task that acquired it.
