Lukko.OFD

Linux open file descriptor locking.

https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Open-File-Description-Locks.html

We prefer this over BSD locking (e.g. flock) since the latter appears to break in some NFS configurations. Note that we intentionally do not try to use ordinary POSIX file locking due to its peculiar semantics under multi-threaded environments.
