This does not correspond to any NT syscall. Rather, when a thread dies, it should be called by the NT emulator for each mutex, with the TID of the dying thread. NT mutexes are robust (in the pthread sense). When an NT thread dies, any mutexes it owned are immediately released. Acquisition of those mutexes by other threads will return a special value indicating that the mutex was abandoned, like EOWNERDEAD returned from pthread_mutex_lock(), and EOWNERDEAD is indeed used here for that purpose.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
