Crate priomutex

A mutex where waiting threads to specify a priority.

The API is very similar to std::sync::Mutex. The key difference, of course, is that lock takes a priority. If multiple threads are waiting for the mutex when it's freed, the one which gave the highest priorty will recieve it.

use priomutex::simple::Mutex;

let mutex = Arc::new(Mutex::new(0));
for n in 0..3 {
    let mutex = mutex.clone();
    thread::spawn(move|| {
        loop {
            {
                let mut data = mutex.lock(0).unwrap();
                *data += 1;
            }
            thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(1000));
        }
    });
}
