Ok, I've never used that function.  In fact, I don't use locks at all,
as I generate the index only once, and then I never change it.

The change is in the debian patch:

-int tdb_lockkeys(TDB_CONTEXT *tdb, u32 number, TDB_DATA keys[])
+/* lock/unlock one hash chain. This is meant to be used to reduce
+   contention - it cannot guarantee how many records will be locked */
+int tdb_chainlock(TDB_CONTEXT *tdb, TDB_DATA key)

It looks like a rename, although done in a kind of criminal way :)

Would using tdb_chainlock work instead?


Ciao,

Enrico
