Greetings, Kyle R.! > I've run into a problem with flock while doing some parallel scripting > in bash (also seen in dash) on the latest 64-bit version of Cygwin > running on Windows 8.1. In the attached simple test case, the code > locks and unlocks a file in a loop. After the first iteration of the > loop is completed, this error is thrown:
> 0 [main] flock 7008 C:\cygwin64\bin\flock.exe: *** fatal error - > NtCreateEvent(lock): 0xC0000035 > ./test.sh: line 12: 7008 Hangup flock -x 5 I can confirm this for Win7/64 and 64-bit Cygwin on both .34 exp and snapshot versions of Cygwin library. > However, the problem doesn't occur if I comment out the "while true > do" and "done" and call the script file from a while loop in another > bash script. I found a similar problem in an older thread (here: > https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2011-08/msg00480.html) which may help > to shed some light on the issue, but the inner workings of the locking > system is a bit beyond me. My full Cygwin version is "CYGWIN_NT-6.3 > 1.7.33-2(0.280/5/3) 2014-11-13 15:47", and my cygcheck output is > attached along with the STC and flock's stackdump.
