SYNOPSIS
#include <tis.h>
int tis_unlock_global(
void );

PARAMETERS

DESCRIPTION
This routine unlocks the DECthreads global mutex. Because the global
mutex is recursive, the unlock occurs when each call to
tis_lock_global(3) has been matched by a call to this routine. For
example, if your program called tis_lock_global(3) three times,
tis_unlock_global(3) unlocks the global mutex when you call it the
third time.
For more information about actions taken when threads are present,
refer to the pthread_unlock_global_np(3) description.
RETURN VALUES
If an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value
indicating the type of error. Possible return values are as follows:
Successful completion. The DECthreads global mutex is unlocked or
locked by another thread.
ERRORS
