UV 10.2.10 on Windows is behaving differently from what I recall.
Are my expectations out of line?
Suppose Session A holds a readu lock; and Session B attempts a WRITE to
same record withOUT!!! 1st explicitly getting the readu lock.
Session B waits for Session A to release the lock before writing the record.
While Session B is waiting, does it show up as a "waiter" in LIST.READU
EVERY?
I expected so, but it doesn't.
Session A Session B
_____________________________ ___________________
1A. ED VOC DUMMY
(this sets the readu lock.)
2A. (stay in editor) 2B. run this:
01: OPEN 'VOC' TO F ELSE STOPM
'nope'
02: ***READU REC FROM F, 'DUMMY'
ELSE NULL
03: WRITE '' TO F, 'DUMMY'
3A. Within ED:
XEQ LIST.READU EVERY
If I UN-comment line 2, LIST.READU EVERY shows something like this:
Active Read Waiters: Owner Waiter
Device.... Inode.... Userno Userno
746117947 232860913 6116 3396
But when I comment out line 2, LIST.READU is silent.
I have not yet explored what the deadlock daemon does.
TIA,
cds
P.S. Yes, yes, "Bad Form", "Legacy Software", 20 min wait is
configurable, . . . we can talk later.
