32 The System V mandatory locking scheme was intended to have as little impact as
34 as candidates for mandatory locking, and using the existing fcntl()/lockf()
38 the whole truth. System V locking is based on fcntl(). The granularity of
39 fcntl() is such that it allows the locking of byte ranges in files, in addition
40 to entire files, so the mandatory locking rules also have byte level
