rwlock, read-write lock，就是常说的读写锁。
pthread_rwlock_rdlock / tryrdlock，拿 read lock。对于同一个 rwlock，多个线程可以同时拿到 read lock。
pthread_rwlock_wrlock / trywrlock，拿 write lock。对于同一个 rwlock，同时只能有一个线程可以拿到 write lock，此时没有任何其他线程可拥有 read / write lock。
pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock / timedwrlock，一定时间拿不到锁，也返回。
无论 read or write lock，解锁都是 pthread_rwlock_unlock。
rwlock 也有与 mutex 类似的 pshared(process shared) 的属性，一般也是用处不大啦。
