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. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
