Hi,

Sorry if this question has been answered before, but I'm rather puzzled
as to the intent behind sht_lock() / sht_unlock().

Presumably, "thread"-safe / shm mutex locking is already implemented in
htable query and mutation operations, otherwise htable would be unusable in
a route script context. 

So what is the purpose of this higher-level lock? Is it to create a way
to block config script execution in multiple processes as to serialise
operations? Why would one want to do this under any ordinary
circumstances? Perhaps it is a failure of my imagination...

Thanks,

-- Alex
