The same type of mutex is used in other worker threads that is correct. I am initializing the mutex in the main thread in my global object. Download of Image to hardware When a set request is received by the agent to download an image to hardware a function call is made to download. Within this download function I have the mutex to lock to prevent multiple requests to download and then I spawn a thread that downloads the image to the hardware device. Once complete the lock is disabled. The thread resources are removed once the thread exits.
