If the mutex // you want to refer to is not in scope, you may use a member pointer // (e.g. &MyClass::mutex_) to refer to a mutex in some (unknown) object. #ifndef BASE_THREAD_ANNOTATIONS_H_ #define BASE_THREAD_ANNOTATIONS_H_ #include "base/check_op.h" #include "build/build_config.h" #if defined(__clang__) #define THREAD_ANNOTATION_ATTRIBUTE__(x) __attribute__((x)) #else #define THREAD_ANNOTATION_ATTRIBUTE__(x) // no-op #endif // GUARDED_BY() // // Documents if a shared field or global variable needs to be protected by a // mutex.
