This routine destroys a mutex attributes object-that is, the object becomes uninitialized. Call this routine when your program no longer needs the specified mutex attributes object. After this routine is called, the Threads Library may reclaim the storage used by the mutex attributes object. Mutexes that were created using this attributes object are not affected by the destruction of the mutex attributes object. The results of calling this routine are unpredictable, if the attributes object specified in the attr argument does not exist.
