# HG changeset patch # User FUJIWARA Katsunori # Date 1493636332 -32400 # Node ID e1938d6051da1eff0c0d78fc7aae0d426e99aad2 # Parent b59a292d0a536ee21e17d018829c36d8d4415569 lock: avoid unintentional lock acquisition at failure of readlock Acquiring lock by vfs.makelock() and getting lock holder (aka "locker") information by vfs.readlock() aren't atomic action. Therefore, failure of the former doesn't ensure success of the latter. Before this patch, lock is unintentionally acquired, if self.parentlock is None (this is default value), and lock._readlock() returns None for ENOENT at vfs.readlock(), because these None are recognized as equal to each other. In this case, lock symlink (or file) isn't created, even though lock is treated as acquired in memory. To avoid this issue, this patch retries lock acquisition immediately, if lock._readlock() returns None "locker". This issue will be covered by a test added in subsequent patch, because simple emulation of ENOENT at vfs.readlock() easily causes another issue. "raising ENOENT only at the first vfs.readlock() invocation" is too complicated for unit test, IMHO. diff -r b59a292d0a53 -r e1938d6051da mercurial/lock.py --- a/mercurial/lock.py Mon May 01 05:52:36 2017 +0900 +++ b/mercurial/lock.py Mon May 01 19:58:52 2017 +0900 @@ -131,6 +131,9 @@ except (OSError, IOError) as why: if why.errno == errno.EEXIST: locker = self._readlock() + if locker is None: + continue + # special case where a parent process holds the lock -- this # is different from the pid being different because we do # want the unlock and postrelease functions to be called,
