79 /* The strategy: to lock a file FN, create a symlink .#FN in FN's
80 directory, with link data `user@host.pid'. This avoids a single
81 mount (== failure) point for lock files.
82
83 When the host in the lock data is the current host, we can check if
84 the pid is valid with kill.
85
86 Otherwise, we could look at a separate file that maps hostnames to
87 reboot times to see if the remote pid can possibly be valid, since we
88 don't want Emacs to have to communicate via pipes or sockets or
89 whatever to other processes, either locally or remotely; rms says
90 that's too unreliable. Hence the separate file, which could
91 theoretically be updated by daemons running separately -- but this
92 whole idea is unimplemented; in practice, at least in our
93 environment, it seems such stale locks arise fairly infrequently, and
94 Emacs' standard methods of dealing with clashes suffice.
95
96 We use symlinks instead of normal files because (1) they can be
97 stored more efficiently on the filesystem, since the kernel knows
98 they will be small, and (2) all the info about the lock can be read
99 in a single system call (readlink). Although we could use regular
100 files to be useful on old systems lacking symlinks, nowadays
101 virtually all such systems are probably single-user anyway, so it
102 didn't seem worth the complication.
103
104 Similarly, we don't worry about a possible 14-character limit on
105 file names, because those are all the same systems that don't have
106 symlinks.
107
108 This is compatible with the locking scheme used by Interleaf (which
109 has contributed this implementation for Emacs), and was designed by
110 Ethan Jacobson, Kimbo Mundy, and others.
