47 * \brief Create a new (unlocked) lock.
49 * \param lxcpath lxcpath lock should relate to.
50 * \param name Name for lock.
52 * \return Newly-allocated lxclock on success, \c NULL on failure.
54 * \note If \p name is not given, create an unnamed semaphore
55 * (used to protect against racing threads).
57 * \note Note that an unnamed sem was malloced by us and needs to be freed.
59 * \internal \ref sem is initialized to a value of \c 1.
60 * A 'sem_t *' which can be passed to \ref lxclock() and \ref lxcunlock()
61 * will be placed in \c l->u.sem.
63 * If \ref lxcpath and \ref name are given (both must be given if either is
64 * given) then a lockfile is created as \c /run/lxc/lock/$lxcpath/.$name if root,
65 * or \c $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/lxc/lock/$lxcpath/.$name if non-root.
66 * The lock is used to protect the containers on-disk representation.
68 * \internal This function allocates the pathname for the given lock in memory
69 * such that it can be can quickly opened and locked by \ref lxclock().
70 * \c l->u.f.fname will contain the malloc'ed name (which must be
71 * freed when the container is freed), and \c u.f.fd = -1.

84 * or \c -1 on any other error (\c errno will be set by \c sem_wait(3)
87 * \note \p timeout is (currently?) only supported for privlock, not
88 * for slock. Since currently there is not a single use of the timeout
89 * (except in the test case) I may remove the support for it in sem as
