     Type:  Bugs                              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined                  |  Component:  thread
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0                      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:  thread mutex pthread API failure  |
----------------------------------------------+----------------------
 boost/thread/pthread/recursive_mutex.hpp ignores some failures from
 pthread_* functions. Functions include pthread_mutex_lock,
 pthread_mutex_unlock and pthread_cond_wait.

 BOOST_VERIFY is used for debugging and diagnostic builds, but no actions
 are taken for failures in release or production builds.

 From line 107:

 #ifdef BOOST_HAS_PTHREAD_MUTEXATTR_SETTYPE
   void lock()
   {
     BOOST_VERIFY(!pthread_mutex_lock(&m));
   }

   void unlock()
   {
     BOOST_VERIFY(!pthread_mutex_unlock(&m));
   }
 ...
 #endif
