66  * Simple file locking.
67  * Create a symlink to a file.  The "test and set" will be
68  * atomic as creating the symlink provides both functions.
69  *
70  * The timeout value specifies how long to wait for stale locks
71  * to disappear.  If the lock is more than 'timeout' seconds old
72  * then it is ok to blow it away.  This part has a small window
73  * of vunerability as the operations of testing the time,
74  * removing the lock and creating a new one are not atomic.
75  * It would be possible for two processes to both decide to blow
76  * away the lock and then have process A remove the lock and establish
77  * its own, and then then have process B remove the lock which accidentily
78  * removes A's lock rather than the stale one.
79  *
80  * A further complication is with the NFS.  If the file in question is
81  * being served by an NFS server, then its time is set by that server.
82  * We can not use the time on the client machine to check for a stale
83  * lock.  Therefore, a temp file on the server is created to get
84  * the servers current time.
85  *
86  * Returns an error message.  NULL return means the lock was obtained.
