<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-mutex" title="mutex: Lock and queue for mutual exclusion. (deprecated)"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">mutex</span></tt></a> module defines a class that allows mutual-exclusion via
acquiring and releasing locks. It does not require (or imply)
<a class="reference internal" href="threading.html#module-threading" title="threading: Higher-level threading interface."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">threading</span></tt></a> or multi-tasking, though it could be useful for those
purposes.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-mutex" title="mutex: Lock and queue for mutual exclusion. (deprecated)"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">mutex</span></tt></a> module defines the following class:</p>

<dd><p>Create a new (unlocked) mutex.</p>
<p>A mutex has two pieces of state &#8212; a &#8220;locked&#8221; bit and a queue. When the mutex
is not locked, the queue is empty. Otherwise, the queue contains zero or more
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">(function,</span> <span class="pre">argument)</span></tt> pairs representing functions (or methods) waiting to
acquire the lock. When the mutex is unlocked while the queue is not empty, the
first queue entry is removed and its  <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">function(argument)</span></tt> pair called,
implying it now has the lock.</p>
<p>Of course, no multi-threading is implied &#8211; hence the funny interface for
<a class="reference internal" href="#mutex.mutex.lock" title="mutex.mutex.lock"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">lock()</span></tt></a>, where a function is called once the lock is acquired.</p>
