Hi,

As it is not really implemented I think ENOSYS is more appropiate. But
definitely the best thing at all is to implemented it :P

   What direction are we talking about?  Making it return ENOSYS or
   making it return success but otherwise be a NOP ?

Returning ENOSYS is correct as per the specification.

The mlockall() and munlockall() functions will fail if:

[ENOSYS]
     The implementation does not support this memory locking interface.

See: http://opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/mlockall.html

Yeah, well, that's SUSv2...

However, see the change history here:
