$ cat main.cpp 
#include 

static std::mutex guard;

int main() { const auto lock = std::scoped_lock{guard}; }



$ clang++ -std=c++17 -D_LIBCPP_ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY_ANNOTATIONS -Wthread-safety main.cpp 
main.cpp:5:57: warning: releasing mutex 'lock' that was not held [-Wthread-safety-analysis]
int main() { const auto lock = std::scoped_lock{guard}; }

when the variable is "auto lock" instead of "const auto lock", then no warning is generated.
