Ralf Thielow	aae42e43c4	lockfile: remove function "hold_lock_file_for_append" With `77b9b1d` (add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entries, 2015-08-10) the last caller of function "hold_lock_file_for_append" has been removed, so we can remove the function as well.

Michael Haggerty	1a9d15db25	tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files A lot of work went into defining the state diagram for lockfiles and ensuring correct, race-resistant cleanup in all circumstances. Most of that infrastructure can be applied directly to any temporary file. So extract a new "tempfile" module from the "lockfile" module. Reimplement lockfile on top of tempfile. Subsequent commits will add more users of the new module. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	10 years ago

Michael Haggerty	044b6a9efe	lockfile: allow file locking to be retried with a timeout Currently, there is only one attempt to lock a file. If it fails, the whole operation fails. But it might sometimes be advantageous to try acquiring a file lock a few times before giving up. So add a new function, hold_lock_file_for_update_timeout(), that allows a timeout to be specified. Make hold_lock_file_for_update() a thin wrapper around the new function. If timeout_ms is positive, then retry for at least that many milliseconds to acquire the lock. On each failed attempt, use select() to wait for a backoff time that increases quadratically (capped at 1 second) and has a random component to prevent two processes from getting synchronized. If timeout_ms is negative, retry indefinitely. In a moment we will switch to using the new function when locking packed-refs.

Michael Haggerty	013870cd2c	fdopen_lock_file(): access a lockfile using stdio Add a new function, fdopen_lock_file(), which returns a FILE pointer open to the lockfile. If a stream is open on a lock_file object, it is closed using fclose() on commit, rollback, or close_lock_file(). This change will allow callers to use stdio to write to a lockfile without having to muck around in the internal representation of the lock_file object (callers will be rewritten in upcoming commits).

Michael Haggerty	697cc8efd9	lockfile.h: extract new header file for the functions in lockfile.c Move the interface declaration for the functions in lockfile.c from cache.h to a new file, lockfile.h. Add #includes where necessary (and remove some redundant includes of cache.h by files that already include builtin.h). Move the documentation of the lock_file state diagram from lockfile.c to the new header file.
