Didnt Shahar already do this?
Anyway, as a reminder, there are a couple of issues to consider with this:
1. there shall, properly, be only one sm at the same time
so I think an attempt to set it when its already set
shall fail or block.
2. when sm exits the bit shall be auto-cleared
I guess the proper way to do it is on closing the file.
