cond_wait

cond_wait 

var

Takes the locked variable var , unlocks it, and blocks until another thread does a cond_signal or cond_broadcast for that variable. The variable is relocked after the cond_wait has been satisfied. If multiple threads are cond_wait ing, all but one will reblock waiting to reacquire the lock.
