NAME

       gnutls_global_set_mutex - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       void   gnutls_global_set_mutex(mutex_init_func  init,  mutex_deinit_func  deinit,  mutex_lock_func  lock,
       mutex_unlock_func unlock);

ARGUMENTS

       mutex_init_func init
                   mutex initialization function

       mutex_deinit_func deinit
                   mutex deinitialization function

       mutex_lock_func lock
                   mutex locking function

       mutex_unlock_func unlock
                   mutex unlocking function

DESCRIPTION

       With this function you are allowed to override the default mutex locks used in some parts of  gnutls  and
       dependent  libraries.  This  function  should  be  used  if you have complete control of your program and
       libraries.  Do not call this function from a library, or preferably from any  application  unless  really
       needed to. GnuTLS will use the appropriate locks for the running system.

       Note that since the move to implicit initialization of GnuTLS on library load, calling this function will
       deinitialize the library, and re-initialize it after the new locking functions are set.

       This function must be called prior to any other gnutls function.
