💅 PTHREAD...YRDLOCK — the POSIX Programmer's Manual era

okay bestie, quick vibe check before we even start: this page lives in the POSIX Programmer's Manual. That's the tea. ☕

Heads up fr fr: the Linux implementation of this interface may differ — so if you're on Linux, go consult the corresponding Linux manual page for the deets. Or, plot twist, the interface may not be implemented on Linux <em>at all</em>. Not every function gets to be the main character. 😭

✨ PROLOG ✨

So this manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual, periodt. It's not the Linux one, and they are not the same thing.

• 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.

That's it, that's the whole disclaimer. Iconic of them to warn you up front. 🫶
