+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIpthread_rwlockattr_getpshared\fP() function shall obtain the
+value of the \fIprocess-shared\fP attribute from the
+initialized attributes object referenced by \fIattr\fP. The \fIpthread_rwlockattr_setpshared\fP()
+function shall set the
+\fIprocess-shared\fP attribute in an initialized attributes object
+referenced by \fIattr\fP.
+.LP
+The \fIprocess-shared\fP attribute shall be set to PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
+to permit a read-write lock to be operated upon by
+any thread that has access to the memory where the read-write lock
+is allocated, even if the read-write lock is allocated in memory
+that is shared by multiple processes. If the \fIprocess-shared\fP
+attribute is PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE, the read-write lock shall
+only be operated upon by threads created within the same process as
+the thread that initialized the read-write lock; if threads of
+differing processes attempt to operate on such a read-write lock,
+the behavior is undefined. The default value of the
+\fIprocess-shared\fP attribute shall be PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE.
+.LP
+Additional attributes, their default values, and the names of the
+associated functions to get and set those attribute values are
+implementation-defined.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+Upon successful completion, the \fIpthread_rwlockattr_getpshared\fP()
+function shall return zero and store the value of the
+\fIprocess-shared\fP attribute of \fIattr\fP into the object referenced
+by the \fIpshared\fP parameter. Otherwise, an error
+number shall be returned to indicate the error.
+.LP
+If successful, the \fIpthread_rwlockattr_setpshared\fP() function
+shall return zero; otherwise, an error number shall be
+returned to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+The \fIpthread_rwlockattr_getpshared\fP() and \fIpthread_rwlockattr_setpshared\fP()
+functions may fail if:
+.TP 7
+.B EINVAL
+The value specified by \fIattr\fP is invalid.
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fIpthread_rwlockattr_setpshared\fP() function may fail if:
+.TP 7
+.B EINVAL
+The new value specified for the attribute is outside the range of
+legal values for that attribute.
+.sp
+.LP
+These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
