Thank you for the reply.
To clarify things in my mind:
Should I pass the lock itself to cond.wait for safety/correctness, or
because this way I will get the desired behavior?

Hello users.
Documentation says that cond.wait(mtx) blocks the current thread and invokes mtx.unlock().
What if I want cond.wait(mtx) to call mtx.unlock_shared() instead? Is there any way to do so?
You should pass the unique_lock or shared_lock to cond.wait, instead of passing the mutex itself.
