- I have a problem with SunOS 4.1 locks. They get eaten up by something, and
- this messes up few programs we use. This seems that either locks are kept
- by a program I don't expect to do it or the locks are not killed when a
- program terminates. The hardware is 3/60. The problem is not that locks
- are reserved, but the table of locks somewhere gets filled up.
-
- - Does sun has a mail address for support?
- - Is there a program display all locks. Knowing which processes have them
- would be nice but even the files the locks are for would suffice.
- - Where should I find the lock table in kernel? Could it be simple to
- write a kmem-digger to get them out?
