Description:I faced problem with {{pthread_rwlock_timed\[rd|wr\]lock()}} in my project: these functions are not implemented on OpenBSD/MacOS and similar systems.
Luckily i found the solution in Asterisk (dev/Asterisk/main/lock.c) but it seems to be implemented incorrectly.

In {{pthread_rwlock_timed\[rd|wr\]lock()}} second argument is {{const struct timespec *abs_timeout}}, which represents time since UNIX epoch till timeout.
In {{__ast_rwlock_timed\[rd|wr\]lock()}} implementation for OpenBSD this argument is treated as relative timeout:
difference between {{ast_tvnow()}} and {{struct timeval _start}} is compared to {{abs_timeout}}. That's incorrect.
