https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29362 Summary: flock: can return EAGAIN contrary to manpage Product: Documentation Version: unspecified Kernel Version: n/a Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: low Priority: P1 Component: man-pages AssignedTo: documentation_man-pages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: petr.uzel@xxxxxxx Regression: No flock(2) manpage does not list EAGAIN as possible return value. As far as I understand, one can assume that flock never returns EAGAIN, which is not true: strace: ... flock(3, LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) ... FWIW, this was on kernel 2.6.37. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
