* @file chmtx.c
* @brief Mutexes code.
*
* @addtogroup mutexes
* @details Mutexes related APIs and services.
*
*
Operation mode
* A mutex is a threads synchronization object that can be in two
* distinct states:
* - Not owned (unlocked).
* - Owned by a thread (locked).
* .
* Operations defined for mutexes:
* - Lock: The mutex is checked, if the mutex is not owned by
* some other thread then it is associated to the locking thread
* else the thread is queued on the mutex in a list ordered by
* priority.
* - Unlock: The mutex is released by the owner and the highest
* priority thread waiting in the queue, if any, is resumed and made
* owner of the mutex.
* .
* Constraints
* In ChibiOS/RT the Unlock operations are always performed in
* lock-reverse order. The unlock API does not even have a parameter,
* the mutex to unlock is selected from an internal, per-thread, stack
* of owned mutexes. This both improves the performance and is
* required for an efficient implementation of the priority
* inheritance mechanism.
*
* The priority inversion problem
* The mutexes in ChibiOS/RT implements the full priority
* inheritance mechanism in order handle the priority inversion
* problem.
* When a thread is queued on a mutex, any thread, directly or
* indirectly, holding the mutex gains the same priority of the
* waiting thread (if their priority was not already equal or higher).
* The mechanism works with any number of nested mutexes and any
* number of involved threads. The algorithm complexity (worst case)
* is N with N equal to the number of nested mutexes.
* @pre In order to use the mutex APIs the @p CH_USE_MUTEXES option
* must be enabled in @p chconf.h.
* @post Enabling mutexes requires 5-12 (depending on the architecture)
* extra bytes in the @p Thread structure.
* @{
