<b>Description: DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat</b>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat method returns the mutex subsystem statistics.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat method creates a statistical structure of type
DB_MUTEX_STAT and copies a pointer to it into a user-specified memory
location.</p>
<p>Statistical structures are stored in allocated memory.  If application-specific allocation
routines have been declared (see <a href="../api_c/env_set_alloc.html">DB_ENV-&gt;set_alloc</a> for more
information), they are used to allocate the memory; otherwise, the
standard C library <b>malloc</b>(3) is used.  The caller is
responsible for deallocating the memory.  To deallocate the memory, free
the memory reference; references inside the returned memory need not be
individually freed.</p>
<p>The following DB_MUTEX_STAT fields will be filled in:</p>
<br>
<b>u_int32_t st_mutex_align;</b><ul compact><li>The mutex alignment, in bytes.</ul>
<b>u_int32_t st_mutex_tas_spins;</b><ul compact><li>The number of times test-and-set mutexes will spin without blocking.</ul>
<b>int st_mutex_cnt;</b><ul compact><li>The total number of mutexes configured.</ul>
<b>u_int32_t st_mutex_free;</b><ul compact><li>The number of mutexes currently available.</ul>
<b>u_int32_t st_mutex_inuse;</b><ul compact><li>The number of mutexes currently in use.</ul>
<b>u_int32_t st_mutex_inuse_max;</b><ul compact><li>The maximum number of mutexes ever in use.</ul>
<b>roff_t st_regsize;</b><ul compact><li>The size of the mutex region, in bytes.</ul>
<b>u_int32_t st_region_wait;</b><ul compact><li>The number of times that a thread of control was forced to wait before
obtaining the mutex region mutex.</ul>
<b>u_int32_t st_region_nowait;</b><ul compact><li>The number of times that a thread of control was able to obtain
the mutex region mutex without waiting.</ul>
<br>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat method may not be called before the <a href="../api_c/env_open.html">DB_ENV-&gt;open</a> method is called.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<b>Parameters</b> <br>
 <b>flags</b><ul compact><li>The <b>flags</b> parameter must be set to 0 or
the following value:
<br>
<b><a name="DB_STAT_CLEAR">DB_STAT_CLEAR</a></b><ul compact><li>Reset statistics after returning their values.</ul>
<br></ul>
 <b>statp</b><ul compact><li>The <b>statp</b> parameter references memory into which
a pointer to the allocated statistics structure is copied.</ul> 
<br>
<br><b>Errors</b>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat method
may fail and return one of the following non-zero errors:</p>
<br>
<b>EINVAL</b><ul compact><li>An
invalid flag value or parameter was specified.</ul>

<b>Description: DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat_print</b>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat_print method displays the
mutex subsystem statistical information, as described for the DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat method.
The information is printed to a specified output channel (see the
<a href="../api_c/env_set_msgfile.html">DB_ENV-&gt;set_msgfile</a> method for more information), or passed to an
application callback function (see the <a href="../api_c/env_set_msgcall.html">DB_ENV-&gt;set_msgcall</a> method for
more information).</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat_print method may not be called before the <a href="../api_c/env_open.html">DB_ENV-&gt;open</a> method is called.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;mutex_stat_print method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<b>Parameters</b> <br>
 <b>flags</b><ul compact><li>The <b>flags</b> parameter must be set to 0 or by bitwise inclusively <b>OR</b>'ing together one
or more of the following values:
<br>
<b><a name="DB_STAT_ALL">DB_STAT_ALL</a></b><ul compact><li>Display all available information.</ul>
<b><a name="DB_STAT_CLEAR">DB_STAT_CLEAR</a></b><ul compact><li>Reset statistics after displaying their values.</ul>
