33.6.4.5.1 General [thread.sharedtimedmutex.requirements.general]

The standard library type shared_timed_mutex is a shared timed mutex type.
Shared timed mutex types meet the requirements of timed mutex types ([thread.timedmutex.requirements]), shared mutex types ([thread.sharedmutex.requirements]), and additionally meet the requirements set out below.
In this description, m denotes an object of a shared timed mutex type, rel_time denotes an object of an instantiation of duration ([time.duration]), and abs_time denotes an object of an instantiation of time_point.
[Note 1: 
The shared timed mutex types meet the Cpp17SharedTimedLockable requirements ([thread.req.lockable.shared.timed]).
— end note]
The expression m.try_lock_shared_for(rel_time) is well-formed and has the following semantics:
Preconditions: The calling thread has no ownership of the mutex.
Effects: Attempts to obtain shared lock ownership for the calling thread within the relative timeout ([thread.req.timing]) specified by rel_time.
If the time specified by rel_time is less than or equal to rel_time.zero(), the function attempts to obtain ownership without blocking (as if by calling try_lock_shared()).
The function returns within the timeout specified by rel_time only if it has obtained shared ownership of the mutex object.
[Note 2: 
As with try_lock(), there is no guarantee that ownership will be obtained if the lock is available, but implementations are expected to make a strong effort to do so.
— end note]
If an exception is thrown then a shared lock has not been acquired for the current thread.
Synchronization: If try_lock_shared_for() returns true, prior unlock() operations on the same object synchronize with ([intro.multithread]) this operation.
Return type: bool.
Returns: true if the shared lock was acquired, otherwise false.
Throws: Timeout-related exceptions ([thread.req.timing]).
The expression m.try_lock_shared_until(abs_time) is well-formed and has the following semantics:
Preconditions: The calling thread has no ownership of the mutex.
Effects: The function attempts to obtain shared ownership of the mutex.
If abs_time has already passed, the function attempts to obtain shared ownership without blocking (as if by calling try_lock_shared()).
The function returns before the absolute timeout ([thread.req.timing]) specified by abs_time only if it has obtained shared ownership of the mutex object.
[Note 3: 
As with try_lock(), there is no guarantee that ownership will be obtained if the lock is available, but implementations are expected to make a strong effort to do so.
— end note]
If an exception is thrown then a shared lock has not been acquired for the current thread.
Synchronization: If try_lock_shared_until() returns true, prior unlock() operations on the same object synchronize with ([intro.multithread]) this operation.
Return type: bool.
Returns: true if the shared lock was acquired, otherwise false.
Throws: Timeout-related exceptions ([thread.req.timing]).

33.6.4.5.2 Class shared_timed_mutex [thread.sharedtimedmutex.class]

namespace std { class shared_timed_mutex { public: shared_timed_mutex(); ~shared_timed_mutex(); shared_timed_mutex(const shared_timed_mutex&) = delete; shared_timed_mutex& operator=(const shared_timed_mutex&) = delete; // exclusive ownership void lock(); // blocking bool try_lock(); template<class Rep, class Period> bool try_lock_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time); template<class Clock, class Duration> bool try_lock_until(const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time); void unlock(); // shared ownership void lock_shared(); // blocking bool try_lock_shared(); template<class Rep, class Period> bool try_lock_shared_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time); template<class Clock, class Duration> bool try_lock_shared_until(const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time); void unlock_shared(); }; }
The class shared_timed_mutex provides a non-recursive mutex with shared ownership semantics.
The class shared_timed_mutex meets all of the shared timed mutex requirements ([thread.sharedtimedmutex.requirements]).
It is a standard-layout class ([class.prop]).
The behavior of a program is undefined if
  • it destroys a shared_timed_mutex object owned by any thread,
  • a thread attempts to recursively gain any ownership of a shared_timed_mutex, or
  • a thread terminates while possessing any ownership of a shared_timed_mutex.
