68 an existing lock to the new lock mode."
69 So, the call below should convert the exclusive lock for fd to a shared
70 and thus succeeds. The fact that it doesn't but instead fails is
72 /* The Solaris manual page of flock(2) says:
73 "More than one process may hold a shared lock for a file at any given
74 time, but multiple exclusive, or both shared and exclusive, locks may
75 not exist simultaneously on a file. ...
76 Requesting a lock on an object that is already locked normally causes
77 the caller to block until the lock may be acquired. If LOCK_NB is
78 included in operation, then this will not happen; instead, the call
79 will fail and the error EWOULDBLOCK will be returned."
80 So, the call below should fail and set errno to EWOULDBLOCK. The fact
