Detailed Description

Locks entries so only one transaction can use tham at a time.

Locks can be locked in three ways, read-only, upgradable and exclusive.

• Read-only is for read-only transactions that know they will not want an exclusive version of the lock later one
• Upgradable is for transactions that might want to upgrade it to an exclusive lock later on.
• Exclusive locks can only be held by one transaction.
