/*	$NetBSD: myflock.c,v 1.3 2020/03/18 19:05:21 christos Exp $	*/

/*++
/* NAME
/*	myflock 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	lock open file
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <myflock.h>
/*
/*	int	myflock(fd, lock_style, operation)
/*	int	fd;
/*	int	lock_style;
/*	int	operation;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	myflock() locks or unlocks an entire open file.
/*
/*	In the case of a blocking request, a call that fails due to
/*	foreseeable transient problems is retried once per second.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP fd
/*	The open file to be locked/unlocked.
/* .IP lock_style
/*	One of the following values:
/* .RS
/* .IP	MYFLOCK_STYLE_FLOCK
/*	Use BSD-style flock() locking.
/* .IP	MYFLOCK_STYLE_FCNTL
/*	Use POSIX-style fcntl() locking.
/* .RE
/* .IP operation
/*	One of the following values:
/* .RS
/* .IP	MYFLOCK_OP_NONE
/*	Release any locks the process has on the specified open file.
/* .IP	MYFLOCK_OP_SHARED
/*	Attempt to acquire a shared lock on the specified open file.
/*	This is appropriate for read-only access.
/* .IP	MYFLOCK_OP_EXCLUSIVE
/*	Attempt to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified open
/*	file. This is appropriate for write access.
/* .PP
/*	In addition, setting the MYFLOCK_OP_NOWAIT bit causes the
/*	call to return immediately when the requested lock cannot
/*	be acquired.
/* .RE
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	myflock() returns 0 in case of success, -1 in case of failure.
/*	A problem description is returned via the global \fIerrno\fR
/*	variable. In the case of a non-blocking lock request the value
/*	EAGAIN means that a lock is claimed by someone else.
/*
/*	Panic: attempts to use an unsupported file locking method or
/*	to implement an unsupported operation.
