Since I updated to it for testing latest udev versions I sometimes get messages like: flock() failed: Interrupted system call when trying to start some service, the problem is that it occurs in a random way, sometimes it boots without showing it, others it's shown for a service, others for other service and, the most strange thing, it looks like service is correctly started anyway even if the message is shown. But this is clearly a regression over current stable 0.9.8.4 Portage 2.1.11.14 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop/gnome, gcc-4.5.4, glibc-2.15-r2, 3.5.3-gentoo x86_64)

Created attachment 337382 [details, diff] Patch - retry flock if it was interrupted by signal
I'm sure that failing on any signal was not expected behavior. Rebooted many times with patched openrc, had no problems. Now, I don't see any error messages, and text isn't messed up.
Sorry, but why this still isn't fixed? This bug isn't as important as crashing, but is very annoying. I can provide additional comments, if this will speed up the process: This bug is introduced by this commit: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/openrc.git;a=commit;h=6be8a0679b8d64ea5b99ea98839eab2ce129988b This part of commit message is wrong: "flock() would simply block till a previous lock has been released". flock() will also fail when any signal arrives, as almost all blocking calls will do. So when flock() failed with errno==EINTR, we should try again. This won't return bug #360013. I use patched openrc since my first message here, and I didn't find any regressions, only improvements.
This has been applied in commit 970893a and will be part of openrc-0.12. Thanks for the report, and sorry this took so long to apply.
