> From d6bd9f635307f09bc7ce247ccbebeafc519f2bfb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Jones<rjones(a)redhat.com> Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:48:59 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] generator: Acquire lock to prevent two parallel runs of the generator. This commit acquires a lock on a file to prevent two parallel runs of the generator from stomping on each other. The second run will wait for the first to complete before starting. The lock is acquired on the "HACKING" file because it's convenient -- we are already checking this file exists to make sure that we don't start off in the wrong directory. Tested by adding some artificial sleeps in the code to observe locking behaviour between two parallel runs. --- src/generator.ml | 34 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) mode change 100644 => 100755 src/generator.ml diff --git a/src/generator.ml b/src/generator.ml old mode 100644 new mode 100755 index c261ea2..30491e0 --- a/src/generator.ml +++ b/src/generator.ml @@ -10176,18 +10176,39 @@ let output_to filename = in close +let perror msg = function + | Unix.Unix_error (err, _, _) -> + eprintf "%s: %s\n" msg (Unix.error_message err) + | exn -> + eprintf "%s: %s\n" msg (Printexc.to_string exn) + (* Main program. *) let () = check_functions (); - if not (Sys.file_exists "HACKING") then ( - eprintf "\ + let lock_fd = + try Unix.openfile "HACKING" [Unix.O_RDWR] 0 + with + | Unix.Unix_error (Unix.ENOENT, _, _) -> + eprintf "\ You are probably running this from the wrong directory.
