-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Apply, test, or remove a POSIX lock on a section of an open file.
-The file is specified by
-.IR fd ,
-a file descriptor open for writing, the action by
-.IR op ,
-and the section consists of byte positions
-.IR pos .. pos + len \-1
-if
-.I len
-is positive, and
-.IR pos \- len .. pos \-1
-if
-.I len
-is negative, where
-.I pos
-is the current file position, and if
-.I len
-is zero, the section extends from the current file position to
-infinity, encompassing the present and future end-of-file positions.
-In all cases, the section may extend past current end-of-file.
-.P
-On Linux,
-.BR lockf ()
-is just an interface on top of
-.BR fcntl (2)
-locking.
-Many other systems implement
-.BR lockf ()
-in this way, but note that POSIX.1 leaves the relationship between
-.BR lockf ()
-and
-.BR fcntl (2)
-locks unspecified.
-A portable application should probably avoid mixing calls
-to these interfaces.
-.P
-Valid operations are given below:
-.TP
-.B F_LOCK
-Set an exclusive lock on the specified section of the file.
-If (part of) this section is already locked, the call
-blocks until the previous lock is released.
-If this section overlaps an earlier locked section,
-both are merged.
-File locks are released as soon as the process holding the locks
-closes some file descriptor for the file.
-A child process does not inherit these locks.
-.TP
-.B F_TLOCK
-Same as
-.B F_LOCK
-but the call never blocks and returns an error instead if the file is
-already locked.
-.TP
-.B F_ULOCK
-Unlock the indicated section of the file.
-This may cause a locked section to be split into two locked sections.
-.TP
-.B F_TEST
-Test the lock: return 0 if the specified section
-is unlocked or locked by this process; return \-1, set
-.I errno
-to
-.B EAGAIN
-.RB ( EACCES
-on some other systems),
-if another process holds a lock.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-On success, zero is returned.
-On error, \-1 is returned, and
-.I errno
-is set to indicate the error.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.BR EACCES " or " EAGAIN
-The file is locked and
-.B F_TLOCK
-or
-.B F_TEST
-was specified, or the operation is prohibited because the file has
-been memory-mapped by another process.
-.TP
-.B EBADF
-.I fd
-is not an open file descriptor; or
-.I op
-is
-.B F_LOCK
-or
-.B F_TLOCK
-and
-.I fd
-is not a writable file descriptor.
-.TP
-.B EDEADLK
-.I op
-was
-.B F_LOCK
-and this lock operation would cause a deadlock.
-.TP
-.B EINTR
-While waiting to acquire a lock, the call was interrupted by
-delivery of a signal caught by a handler; see
-.BR signal (7).
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-An invalid operation was specified in
-.IR op .
-.TP
-.B ENOLCK
-Too many segment locks open, lock table is full.
