69 /* Normally use a symbolic link to represent a lock.
70 The strategy: to lock a file FN, create a symlink .#FN in FN's
71 directory, with link data `user@host.pid'. This avoids a single
72 mount (== failure) point for lock files.
74 When the host in the lock data is the current host, we can check if
75 the pid is valid with kill.
77 Otherwise, we could look at a separate file that maps hostnames to
78 reboot times to see if the remote pid can possibly be valid, since we
79 don't want Emacs to have to communicate via pipes or sockets or
80 whatever to other processes, either locally or remotely; rms says
81 that's too unreliable. Hence the separate file, which could
82 theoretically be updated by daemons running separately -- but this
83 whole idea is unimplemented; in practice, at least in our
84 environment, it seems such stale locks arise fairly infrequently, and
85 Emacs' standard methods of dealing with clashes suffice.
87 We use symlinks instead of normal files because (1) they can be
88 stored more efficiently on the filesystem, since the kernel knows
89 they will be small, and (2) all the info about the lock can be read
90 in a single system call (readlink). Although we could use regular
91 files to be useful on old systems lacking symlinks, nowadays
92 virtually all such systems are probably single-user anyway, so it
93 didn't seem worth the complication.
95 Similarly, we don't worry about a possible 14-character limit on
96 file names, because those are all the same systems that don't have
97 symlinks.
99 This is compatible with the locking scheme used by Interleaf (which
100 has contributed this implementation for Emacs), and was designed by
101 Ethan Jacobson, Kimbo Mundy, and others.
103 --karl@cs.umb.edu/karl@hq.ileaf.com.
105 On some file systems, notably those of MS-Windows, symbolic links
106 do not work well, so instead of a symlink .#FN -> 'user@host.pid',
107 the lock is a regular file .#FN with contents 'user@host.pid'. To
108 establish a lock, a nonce file is created and then renamed to .#FN.
109 On MS-Windows this renaming is atomic unless the lock is forcibly
110 acquired. On other systems the renaming is atomic if the lock is
111 forcibly acquired; if not, the renaming is done via hard links,
112 which is good enough for lock-file purposes.
114 To summarize, race conditions can occur with either:
116 * Forced locks on MS-Windows systems.
118 * Non-forced locks on non-MS-Windows systems that support neither
119 hard nor symbolic links. */
