the LFS since the 4.4lite2 code was merged into NetBSD.
TODO updated to remove everything marked DONE in 4.4, and add in a list
of more current things to do.
Get rid of comments about the cleaner syscall code and missing fragment
support from README.
include:
- DIROP segregation is enabled, and greater care is taken
to make sure that a checkpoint completes. Fsck is not
needed to remount the filesystem.
- Several checks to make sure that the LFS subsystem does not
overuse various resources (memory, in particular).
- The cleaner routines, lfs_markv in particular, are completely
rewritten. A buffer overflow is removed. Greater care is taken
to ensure that inodes come from where lfs_cleanerd say they come
from (so we know nothing has changed since lfs_bmapv was called).
- Fragment allocation is fixed, so that writes beyond end-of-file
do the right thing.
minor of libc and the major of libutil). For little-endian architectures
merge the bnswap() assembly versions with nto* and hton* using symbols
aliasing. Use symbol renaming for the bswap function in this case to avoid
namespace pollution.
Declare bswap* in machine/bswap.h, not machine/endian.h. For little-endian
machines, common code for inline macros go in machine/byte_swap.h
Sync libkern with libc.
Adjust #include in kernel sources for machine/bswap.h.
Make ext2fs_init() call ufs_init(). it was doing the init by itself,
testing for extern done != 0. This bug was hidden by the fact that
ext2fs_init() is called before ffs_init().
this check, before calling VOP_READDIR. Second, vn_readdir
returns a different error even. Finally, some FS's might
want to write their directories into files that look like
BSD directories and then have ufs_readdir parse them.
* in the read vnode operator, check for IO_SYNC being set in the ioflag and
synchronously update the file's meta-data if appropriate.
* in the write vnode operator, update the appropriate checks for IO_SYNC being
set in the ioflag to reflect that IO_DSYNC is now inclusive-or'ed into
IO_SYNC, and require all IO_SYNC bits to be set for operations defined by
synchronized I/O file integrity completion but not by synchronized I/O data
integrity completion.
