 * Locks are uniquely identified by the file being locked,
   both in the same process and across different processes.
-
 * Locks are either in a locked or unlocked state.
-
 * When the lock is unlocked, calling `acquire()` returns immediately and changes
   the lock state to locked.
-
 * When the lock is locked, calling `acquire()` will block until the lock state
   changes to unlocked, or until the timeout expires.
-
 * If a process holds a lock, any thread in that process can call `release()` to
   change the state to unlocked.
-
 * Behaviour of locks after `fork` is undefined.
