allowing searches to proceed while another process is in a
transaction, then only upgrading the transaction lock to a write lock
on commit.
The solution is:
- split tdb_traverse() into two calls, called tdb_traverse() and
tdb_traverse_read(). The _read() version only gets read locks, and
will fail any write operations made in the callback from the
traverse.
- the normal tdb_traverse() call allows for read or write operations
in the callback, but gets the transaction lock, preventing
transastions from starting inside the traverse
In addition we enforce the following rule that you may not start a
transaction within a traverse callback, although you can start a
traverse within a transaction
With these rules in place I believe all the deadlock possibilities are
removed, and we can now allow for searches to happen in parallel with
transactions

samba-technical posting for more details on the transactions design.
This also adds a number of command line arguments to tdbtorture,
making it more flexible, and fixes some lock deadlock conditions in
the tdbtorture code.
