any fairness in NTPL pthread mutexes?

[Christopher Friesen]

I'm using NPTL.

If I have a pthread mutex currently owned by a task, and two other tasks 
try to lock it, when the mutex is unlocked, are there any rules about 
the order in which the waiting tasks get the mutex (ie priority, FIFO, 
etc.)?

Thanks,

Chris
