the issue that i'm looking at is analogous to a FIFO, where i have lots

I still fail to see why do you need any locking. Could you provide a
concrete example?
Suppose I have 26 processes, each one handles files starting with a
certain letter. This example fits your description perfectly, and no
locking is needed at all.
