 1.3 Mandatory Locking As A Mount Option
 ---------------------------------------
 
-Mandatory locking, as described in 'Documentation/mandatory.txt' was prior
-to this release a general configuration option that was valid for all
-mounted filesystems. This had a number of inherent dangers, not the least
-of which was the ability to freeze an NFS server by asking it to read a
-file for which a mandatory lock existed.

+all mounted filesystems.  This had a number of inherent dangers, not the
+least of which was the ability to freeze an NFS server by asking it to read
+a file for which a mandatory lock existed.
 
 From this release of the kernel, mandatory locking can be turned on and off
 on a per-filesystem basis, using the mount options 'mand' and 'nomand'.

+0. Why you should avoid mandatory locking
+-----------------------------------------
+
+The Linux implementation is prey to a number of difficult-to-fix race
+conditions which in practice make it not dependable:
+
+	- The write system call checks for a mandatory lock only once
+	  at its start.  It is therefore possible for a lock request to
+	  be granted after this check but before the data is modified.
+	  A process may then see file data change even while a mandatory
+	  lock was held.
+	- Similarly, an exclusive lock may be granted on a file after
+	  the kernel has decided to proceed with a read, but before the
+	  read has actually completed, and the reading process may see
+	  the file data in a state which should not have been visible
+	  to it.
+	- Similar races make the claimed mutual exclusion between lock
+	  and mmap similarly unreliable.
