Lock/unlock are problematic. We'd need trylock semantics to avoid deadlock. And the end result is something harder to use. And I don't think these ops fall on the critical path. PGAS-style usage is going to lockall once per window and unlockall just prior to freeing it. Jeff Sent from my iPhone

Looks good for me. How about lock{all} / unlock{all} ? An optimization could be combining internal lock/unlock messages especially in unlock{all} .

I created https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/ticket/459 in response to my long-standing issue with this in ARMCI-MPI and the additional issues encountered by Min (copied) in another project.
Please let me know what you think about this.
Thanks,
