Subject: [9fans] plan9port: flock on sunos5.8?
Topicbox-Message-UUID: ab41a98e-eacd-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025

yet another instance of 'spending some time on plan9port on sunos 5.8'.

lib9/create.c needs/uses bsd-style flock which is not available by default,
but accessable using /usr/usb/cc
(this is what I figure from the source and  sun's flock man page)
LOCK_SH and LOCK_EX can be found using /usr/ucbinclude/sys/file.h
and there is a ucb compatibility library.

Any good idea for a way around?

I tried a straightforward addition of -I/sys/ucbinclude in 9c
and -L/sys/ucblib -lucb to 9lbiut that is obviously not good enough.
it works for some files breaks breaks on some others :-(

Yet another thing I don't know much about...

Axel.
