Oplocks Test

  • Article

This automated test verifies the basic behavior of legacy opportunistic locks (oplocks) and enhanced oplocks. The legacy oplocks are Level2 (L2), Level1 (L1), Filter, and Batch. The enhanced oplocks are Read (R), Read-Write (RW), Read-Handle (RH), and Read-Write-Handle (RWH).

Note  

For more information about the behavior of file systems (including oplocks), see File System Behavior in the Microsoft Windows Environment.

 

The test runs variations for each of the six partitions that are described in the Requirements section.

This test has the following variations:

  • Legacy_Acquire_Release. Acquire a legacy oplock and then release it.

  • Enhanced_Acquire_Release. Acquire an enhanced oplock and then release it.

  • Enhanced_Acquire_Release_Opkey. Acquire an enhanced oplock by using an oplock key.

  • Legacy_Break_L2. Break an L2 oplock with various file operations.

  • Enhanced_Break_R. Break an R oplock with various file operations.

  • Legacy_Break_L1. Break an L1 oplock with various file operations.

  • Enhanced_Break_RW. Break an RW oplock with various file operations.

  • Enhanced_Break_RH. Break an RH oplock with various file operations.

  • Legacy_Break_Batch. Break a Batch oplock with various file operations.

  • Enhanced_Break_RWH. Break an RWH oplock with various file operations.

  • EnhancedMultipleSharedOplocks. Acquire multiple enhanced oplocks on the same file.

  • EnhancedUpgradeOplocks. Upgrade an enhanced oplock.

  • EnhancedOplockBreakAckOtherHandle. Acknowledge an enhanced oplock break on another handle that opened via the same key.

  • EnhancedOplockStealthUpgrade. Acknowledge an oplock break and request an upgrade-level oplock.

  • AtomicOplocksVariation. Atomic open (open a handle by using CreatOptions=FILE_OPEN_REQUIRING_OPLOCK).

  • AtomicOplocksNonIntrusiveVariation. Atomic open when an oplock already exists on the file.

  • BreakingRHOplocks. Conduct special operations to break an RH oplock.
