Subject: [PATCH v4 12/13] locks: report l_pid as -1 for FL_FILE_PVT locks
Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2013 08:34:24 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387460065-28269-13-git-send-email-jlayton@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1387460065-28269-1-git-send-email-jlayton@redhat.com>
FL_FILE_PVT locks are no longer tied to a particular pid, and are
instead inheritable by child processes. Report a l_pid of '-1' for
these sorts of locks since the pid is somewhat meaningless for them.
This precedent comes from FreeBSD. There, POSIX and flock() locks can
conflict with one another. If fcntl(F_GETLK, ...) returns a lock set
with flock() then the l_pid member cannot be a process ID because the
lock is not held by a process as such.
