Provide byte-range file locking emulation that can be configured at mount time to one of four modes: (1) flock=local. Locking is done locally only and no reference is made to the server. (2) flock=openafs. Byte-range locking is done locally only; whole-file locking is done with reference to the server. Whole-file locks cannot be upgraded unless the client holds an exclusive lock. (3) flock=strict. Byte-range and whole-file locking both require a sufficient whole-file lock on the server. (4) flock=write. As strict, but the client always gets an exclusive whole-file lock on the server. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
