8 * File write-locks as used by Git.
10 * For an overview of how to use the lockfile API, please see
12 * Documentation/technical/api-lockfile.txt
14 * This module keeps track of all locked files in lock_file_list for
15 * use at cleanup. This list and the lock_file objects that comprise
16 * it must be kept in self-consistent states at all time, because the
17 * program can be interrupted any time by a signal, in which case the
18 * signal handler will walk through the list attempting to clean up
19 * any open lock files.
21 * A lockfile is owned by the process that created it. The lock_file
22 * object has an "owner" field that records its owner. This field is
23 * used to prevent a forked process from closing a lockfile created by
24 * its parent.
26 * A lock_file object can be in several states:
28 * - Uninitialized. In this state the object's on_list field must be
29 * zero but the rest of its contents need not be initialized. As
30 * soon as the object is used in any way, it is irrevocably
31 * registered in the lock_file_list, and on_list is set.
33 * - Locked, lockfile open (after hold_lock_file_for_update(),
34 * hold_lock_file_for_append(), or reopen_lock_file()). In this
35 * state, the lockfile exists, filename holds the filename of the
36 * lockfile, fd holds a file descriptor open for writing to the
37 * lockfile, and owner holds the PID of the process that locked the
38 * file.
40 * - Locked, lockfile closed (after close_lock_file()). Same as the
41 * previous state, except that the lockfile is closed and fd is -1.
43 * - Unlocked (after commit_lock_file(), rollback_lock_file(), or a
44 * failed attempt to lock). In this state, filename[0] == '\0' and
45 * fd is -1. The object is left registered in the lock_file_list,
46 * and on_list is set.
