Subject: [PATCH 10/10] libext2fs: add posix advisory locking to the unix IO manager
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2025 18:15:41 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <175573713514.21546.6857949488665021428.stgit@frogsfrogsfrogs> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <175573713292.21546.5820947765655770281.stgit@frogsfrogsfrogs>
From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>
Add support for using flock() to protect the files opened by the Unix IO
manager so that we can't mount the same fs multiple times. This also
prevents systemd and udev from accessing the device while e2fsprogs is
doing something with the device.
