63 /* The strategy: to lock a file FN, create a symlink .#FN in FN's
64 directory, with link data `user@host.pid'. This avoids a single
65 mount (== failure) point for lock files.
67 When the host in the lock data is the current host, we can check if
68 the pid is valid with kill.
70 Otherwise, we could look at a separate file that maps hostnames to
71 reboot times to see if the remote pid can possibly be valid, since we
72 don't want Emacs to have to communicate via pipes or sockets or
73 whatever to other processes, either locally or remotely; rms says
74 that's too unreliable. Hence the separate file, which could
75 theoretically be updated by daemons running separately -- but this
76 whole idea is unimplemented; in practice, at least in our
77 environment, it seems such stale locks arise fairly infrequently, and
78 Emacs' standard methods of dealing with clashes suffice.
80 We use symlinks instead of normal files because (1) they can be
81 stored more efficiently on the filesystem, since the kernel knows
82 they will be small, and (2) all the info about the lock can be read
83 in a single system call (readlink). Although we could use regular
84 files to be useful on old systems lacking symlinks, nowadays
85 virtually all such systems are probably single-user anyway, so it
86 didn't seem worth the complication.
88 Similarly, we don't worry about a possible 14-character limit on
89 file names, because those are all the same systems that don't have
90 symlinks.
92 This is compatible with the locking scheme used by Interleaf (which
93 has contributed this implementation for Emacs), and was designed by
94 Ethan Jacobson, Kimbo Mundy, and others.
