Remove a number of limitations from the external locks. - They can be nested now - They do not need external cleanup in case of failures - They do not rely on lockfile or greenlet internal implementation New implementation is based on fcntl locks and any crashing process will drop the lock. It does not have to rely on any cleanup code or handling exceptions. Because no cleanup is needed, a number of tests have been removed. This implementation is not portable outside of POSIX/BSD/SVR4 systems. Fcntl locks should work correctly with NFS mounts. Locks are cleaned up after the tests finish running via run_tests.sh, even though it's not strictly needed. This change requires eventlet >= 0.9.17. bp improve-external-locking Change-Id: Idf5424c04645f25097733848a007b150145b0b27 |
