       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.
       pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling, pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling —
       get and set the prioceiling attribute of the mutex attributes object
       (REALTIME THREADS)
       #include <pthread.h>
       int pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling(const pthread_mutexattr_t
           *restrict attr, int *restrict prioceiling);
       int pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling(pthread_mutexattr_t *attr,
           int prioceiling);
       The pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling() and
       pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling() functions, respectively, shall get
       and set the priority ceiling attribute of a mutex attributes object
       pointed to by attr which was previously created by the function
       pthread_mutexattr_init().
       The prioceiling attribute contains the priority ceiling of
       initialized mutexes. The values of prioceiling are within the maximum
       range of priorities defined by SCHED_FIFO.
       The prioceiling attribute defines the priority ceiling of initialized
       mutexes, which is the minimum priority level at which the critical
       section guarded by the mutex is executed. In order to avoid priority
       inversion, the priority ceiling of the mutex shall be set to a
       priority higher than or equal to the highest priority of all the
       threads that may lock that mutex. The values of prioceiling are
       within the maximum range of priorities defined under the SCHED_FIFO
       scheduling policy.
       The behavior is undefined if the value specified by the attr argument
       to pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling() or
       pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling() does not refer to an initialized
       mutex attributes object.
       Upon successful completion, the pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling()
       and pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling() functions shall return zero;
       otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
       These functions may fail if:
       EINVAL The value specified by prioceiling is invalid.
       EPERM  The caller does not have the privilege to perform the
              operation.
       These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
       The following sections are informative.
       None.
       None.
       If an implementation detects that the value specified by the attr
       argument to pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling() or
       pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling() does not refer to an initialized
       mutex attributes object, it is recommended that the function should
       fail and report an [EINVAL] error.
       None.
