I have no POSIX spec of any kind, so I'd appreciate if someone looks
my question up.
What should a F_UNLCK fcntl SET_LK op return if we're unlocking a non-locked
area? NetBSD, SVR3 & SVR4 returns 0 and just ignores the op. Linux returns
EINVAL. Who is right, in terms of POSIX-compliance? If you got an answer
please refer to chapter & verse of some POSIX doc.
BTW, is any version of POSIX specs available publicly on-line?
