- * 2) The semaphore facility is locked by this process (i.e. the one
- * that is exiting). In this case, this call should proceed as
- * usual and the facility should be unlocked at the end of this
- * routine (since the locker is exiting).
- * 3) The semaphore facility is locked by some other process and this
- * process doesn't have an undo structure allocated for it. In this
- * case, this call should proceed normally (i.e. not accomplish
- * anything and, most importantly, not block since that is
- * unnecessary and could result in a LOT of processes blocking in
- * here if the facility is locked for a long time).
- * 4) The semaphore facility is locked by some other process and this
- * process has an undo structure allocated for it. In this case,
- * this call should block until the facility has been unlocked since
- * the holder of the lock may be examining this process's proc entry
- * (the ipcs utility does this when printing out the information
- * from the allocated sem undo elements).
- *
- * This leads to the conclusion that we should not block unless we
- * discover that the someone else has the semaphore facility locked and
- * this process has an undo structure. Let's do that...
- *
- * Note that we do this in a separate pass from the one that processes
- * any existing undo structure since we don't want to risk blocking at
- * that time (it would make the actual unlinking of the element from
- * the chain of allocated undo structures rather messy).
+ * If there is no undo vector, skip to the end and unlock the
+ * semaphore facility if necessary.
