Advisory locking protocol.

This protocol is intended to be composed into the |File| protocol to

provide support for advisory locking.

Advisory locks are purely advisory. They do not prevent actual read or

write operations from occurring on the file, either through this

connection or through other connections.

These primitives are designed to support the flock() and fcntl(),

specifically F_SETLK, F_SETLKW, and F_GETLK, functionality that code

running on Fuchsia expects from other operating systems.

Public Methods

void ~AdvisoryLocking ()
void AdvisoryLock (::fuchsia::io::AdvisoryLockRequest request, AdvisoryLockCallback callback)

Acquires an advisory lock on the underlying file.

The lock lasts until either this connection is closed or

this method is called with |AdvisoryLockType.UNLOCK| to release the lock

explicitly.

Advisory locks are purely advisory. They do not prevent actual read or

write operations from occurring on the file, either through this

connection or through other connections.

This method requires the following rights:

* [`Rights.READ_BYTES`] if `request.type` is [`AdvisoryLockType.READ`].

* [`Rights.WRITE_BYTES`] if `request.type` is

[`AdvisoryLockType.WRITE`].

# Errors

* `ZX_ERR_BAD_STATE` The specified type of lock cannot be acquired. For

example, another connection might hold a conflicting lock type.

* `ZX_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED` This file does not support advisory locking.

* `ZX_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED` This connection does not have sufficient rights

to acquire the given type of lock.
