      conch-status word might be changed from USER_HAS_CONCH to
      USER_RELEASE_CONCH).  In addition, cooperating users will not change
      the contents of the file.  The I/O server is a cooperating user itself
      in its implementation of io_read, io_write, and so forth.  The I/O
      server is a separate user from all the shared I/O users.  If a user
      does not release the conch "promptly" then the conch may be stolen
      from that user by the I/O server.  "Promptly" will probably mean a few
      seconds.

      As a consequence of these rules, if you hold the shared page, io_read
      and so forth will block until you release the conch.  You cannot
      reliably predict what I/O operations in the server (in the io.defs
      preceding the comment `Definitions for mapped I/O') might need the
      conch, as a consequence, you should normally not call such functions
      while you are holding the conch if that could cause a deadlock. */

     contains extra data which might be of interest to some readers,
     but is not part of the data proper (for example, UDP and raw IP
     put the internet headers there).

     The IO server guarantees that these will be consecutive, and that
     the file_pointer_start of each record will be that of the last

     whenever the server is it.	 All previous records from the
     rd_file_pointer to the current read_size/file_size will not
     change.  Records before that can be dropped and the valid records
     moved forward in the array (when the server is it); if this
     happens indexes_changed will be set to the number of records
