Detailed Description

       A bunch of macros to minimize the amount of platform-specific ifdefs needed throughout the rest of the
       code. When the features this library needs are similar enough to POSIX to be hidden in a one-or-two line
       replacement, this macro approach is used.

Macro Definition Documentation

   #define Z   'z'
       printf format modifier for size_t

   #define MDB_PIDLOCK   1
       For MDB_LOCK_FORMAT: True if readers take a pid lock in the lockfile

   #define LOCK_MUTEX_R(env)   pthread_mutex_lock(&(env)->me_txns->mti_mutex)
       Lock the reader mutex.

   #define UNLOCK_MUTEX_R(env)   pthread_mutex_unlock(&(env)->me_txns->mti_mutex)
       Unlock the reader mutex.

   #define LOCK_MUTEX_W(env)   pthread_mutex_lock(&(env)->me_txns->mti_wmutex)
       Lock the writer mutex. Only a single write transaction is allowed at a time. Other writers will block
       waiting for this mutex.

   #define UNLOCK_MUTEX_W(env)   pthread_mutex_unlock(&(env)->me_txns->mti_wmutex)
       Unlock the writer mutex.

   #define ErrCode()   errno
       Get the error code for the last failed system function.

   #define HANDLE   int
       An abstraction for a file handle. On POSIX systems file handles are small integers. On Windows they're
       opaque pointers.

   #define INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE   (-1)
       A value for an invalid file handle. Mainly used to initialize file variables and signify that they are
       unused.

   #define GET_PAGESIZE(x)   ((x) = sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE))
       Get the size of a memory page for the system. This is the basic size that the platform's memory manager
       uses, and is fundamental to the use of memory-mapped files.
