+ * DOCPUBLIC
+ * The pthread_mutexattr_setrobust() and
+ * pthread_mutexattr_getrobust() functions respectively set and
+ * get the mutex robust attribute. This attribute is set in the
+ * robust parameter to these functions.
+ *
+ * PARAMETERS
+ * attr
+ * pointer to an instance of pthread_mutexattr_t
+ *
+ * robust
+ * must be one of:
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST
+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION
+ * The pthread_mutexattr_setrobust() and
+ * pthread_mutexattr_getrobust() functions respectively set and
+ * get the mutex robust attribute. This attribute is set in the
+ * robust parameter to these functions. The default value of the
+ * robust attribute is PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED.
+ *
+ * The robustness of mutex is contained in the robustness attribute
+ * of the mutex attributes. Valid mutex robustness values are:
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED
+ * No special actions are taken if the owner of the mutex is
+ * terminated while holding the mutex lock. This can lead to
+ * deadlocks if no other thread can unlock the mutex.
+ * This is the default value.
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST
+ * If the process containing the owning thread of a robust mutex
+ * terminates while holding the mutex lock, the next thread that
+ * acquires the mutex shall be notified about the termination by
+ * the return value [EOWNERDEAD] from the locking function. If the
+ * owning thread of a robust mutex terminates while holding the mutex
+ * lock, the next thread that acquires the mutex may be notified
+ * about the termination by the return value [EOWNERDEAD]. The
+ * notified thread can then attempt to mark the state protected by
+ * the mutex as consistent again by a call to
+ * pthread_mutex_consistent(). After a subsequent successful call to
+ * pthread_mutex_unlock(), the mutex lock shall be released and can
+ * be used normally by other threads. If the mutex is unlocked without
+ * a call to pthread_mutex_consistent(), it shall be in a permanently
+ * unusable state and all attempts to lock the mutex shall fail with
+ * the error [ENOTRECOVERABLE]. The only permissible operation on such
+ * a mutex is pthread_mutex_destroy().
+ *
+ * RESULTS
+ * 0 successfully set attribute,
+ * EINVAL 'attr' or 'robust' is invalid,
+ *
+ * ------------------------------------------------------
