-Subject: [PATCH] Use `flock` not `fcntl` locking for portability (POO #13822)
-
-The structure used by `fcntl` to define the type, location, and
-length of the desired lock uses integer types - `off_t` and
-`pid_t` - that are platform dependent. When writing C you can
-just create a structure using those types, but when writing perl,
-there doesn't seem to be any terribly easy way to find out what
-`off_t` and `pid_t` actually are, in `pack()` terms. There's a
-fairly good discussion here:
-
-https://www.perlmonks.org/bare/index.pl?node_id=920008
-
-The code we currently have will work only on platforms where
-`off_t` happens to be a signed quad and `pid_t` happens to be
-a signed long. This seems to be the case for Fedora and SUSE
-64-bit arches, but certainly isn't the case for Fedora 32-bit
-arches (where `off_t` is a signed long instead), and it may
-differ in other scenarios too.
-
-So I suggest we just use perl `flock` to lock the file before
-writing instead. I've looked into it quite a lot, and AFAICS,
-none of the differences between `fcntl` and `flock` should be a
-problem for us. I don't think `vars.json` is ever likely to be
-on an NFS share (`flock` doesn't work over NFS), we don't need
-to lock a specific area of the file, and the fact that flock is
-an advisory file descriptor lock rather than a filesystem lock
-record should not be a problem, as AFAICS, this is the *only*
-code we ever use to write to `vars.json`, and it will certainly
-respect its own lock.
