Intel Cilk Plus enables you to use mutexes from other parallel frameworks, including system mutexes or Intel TBB mutexes, where you can associate a mutex with a shared object to enforce mutually exclusive access to that object.
For more information, see the links below under See Also.
A deadlock could occur if you hold a mutex while executing a cilk_spawn, cilk_sync, or cilk_for operation, including such an operation within a called function.
