       The  pthread_rwlock_trywrlock()  function  shall  apply  a  write  lock  like the pthread_rwlock_wrlock()
       function, with the exception that the function shall fail if  any  thread  currently  holds  rwlock  (for
       reading or writing).

       The  pthread_rwlock_wrlock()  function  shall  apply  a  write  lock to the read-write lock referenced by
       rwlock.  The calling thread shall acquire the write lock if no thread (reader or writer) holds the  read-
       write  lock  rwlock.   Otherwise,  if another thread holds the read-write lock rwlock, the calling thread
       shall block until it can acquire the lock.  If a deadlock condition occurs or the calling thread  already
       owns the read-write lock for writing or reading, the call shall either deadlock or return [EDEADLK].

       Results are undefined if any of these functions are called with an uninitialized read-write lock.

       If  a  signal  is  delivered  to a thread waiting for a read-write lock for writing, upon return from the
       signal handler the thread resumes waiting  for  the  read-write  lock  for  writing  as  if  it  was  not
       interrupted.

       The pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() function shall fail if:

       EBUSY  The read-write lock could not be acquired for writing because it was already locked for reading or
              writing.

       The pthread_rwlock_wrlock() function may fail if:

       EDEADLK
              A deadlock condition was detected or the current thread  already  owns  the  read-write  lock  for
              writing or reading.

       These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].

       pthread_rwlock_trywrlock, pthread_rwlock_wrlock — lock a read-write lock object for writing

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

       If   an   implementation   detects   that   the   value   specified   by   the   rwlock    argument    to
       pthread_rwlock_trywrlock()  or  pthread_rwlock_wrlock()  does not refer to an initialized read-write lock
       object, it is recommended that the function should fail and report an [EINVAL] error.

       The  pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() function shall return zero if the lock for writing on the read-write lock
       object referenced by rwlock is acquired. Otherwise, an error number shall be  returned  to  indicate  the
       error.

       If  successful,  the pthread_rwlock_wrlock() function shall return zero; otherwise, an error number shall
       be returned to indicate the error.
