-== NAME

-nng_mtx_alloc - allocate mutex
-
-== SYNOPSIS
-
-[source, c]
-----
-#include <nng/nng.h>
-#include <nng/supplemental/util/platform.h>
-
-typedef struct nng_mtx nng_mtx;
-
-int nng_mtx_alloc(nng_mtx **mtxp);
-----
-
-== DESCRIPTION
-
-The `nng_mtx_alloc()` function allocates mutex and returns it in _mtxp_.
-
-The mutex objects created by this function are suitable only for
-simple lock and unlock operations, and are not recursive.
-Every effort has been made to use light-weight underlying primitives when available.
-
-Mutex (mutual exclusion) objects can be thought of as binary semaphores,
-where only a single thread of execution is permitted to acquire the semaphore.
-
-Furthermore, a mutex can only be unlocked by the thread that locked it.
-
-== RETURN VALUES
-
-This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
-
-== ERRORS
-
-[horizontal]
-`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient free memory exists.

-== NAME

-nng_mtx_lock - lock mutex
-
-== SYNOPSIS
-
-[source, c]
-----
-#include <nng/nng.h>
-#include <nng/supplemental/util/platform.h>
-
-void nng_mtx_lock(nng_mtx *mtx);
-----
-
-== DESCRIPTION
-
-The `nng_mtx_lock()` acquires exclusive ownership of the mutex _mtx_.
-If the lock is already owned, this function will wait until the current
-owner releases it with xref:nng_mtx_unlock.3supp.adoc[`nng_mtx_unlock()`].
-
-If multiple threads are waiting for the lock, the order of acquisition
-is not specified.
-
-NOTE: A mutex can _only_ be unlocked by the thread that locked it.
-
-IMPORTANT: Mutex locks are _not_ recursive; attempts to reacquire the
-same mutex may result in deadlock or aborting the current program.
-It is a programming error for the owner of a mutex to attempt to
-reacquire it.
-
-****
-_NNG_ offers neither a non-blocking variant that can fail,
-nor recursive mutexes.
-This is by design, as _NNG_ itself does not use such things,
-and most often the need for them is the result of poor design.
-If such capabilities are needed, they may be synthesized fairly
-easily from mutexes and condition variables.

-== RETURN VALUES
