find.
The filesystem ones all call genfs_eopnotsupp - right now I am only
implementing the plumbing and we can implement fallocate and/or
fdiscard for files later.
The device ones call spec_fallocate (which is also genfs_eopnotsupp)
and spec_fdiscard, which dispatches to the device-level op.
The fifo ones all call vn_fifo_bypass, which also ends up being
EOPNOTSUPP.
- Remove field kfs_value, it is always zero. Compute the hash from kt_tag.
- Remove stray definitions kernfs_revoke_sa and kernfs_revoke_sp.
While here, remove kfs_type from allocvp(), it is always kt->kt_tag.

The effect was that ls /kernfs appeared empty in most cases.
A type specifier of the form
enum identifier
without an enumerator list shall only appear after the type it
specifies is complete.
which means that we cannot pass an "enum vtype" argument to
kauth_access_action() without fully specifying the type first.
Unfortunately there is a complicated include file loop which
makes that difficult, so convert this minimal function into a
macro (and capitalize it).
(ok elad@)
vnode that may disappear before the caller has a chance to reference it.
Reference the vnode while the specfs cache is locked.
Welcome to 5.99.37.
No objections on tech-kern.
years ago when the kernel was modified to not alter ABI based on
DIAGNOSTIC, and now just call the respective function interfaces
(in lowercase). Plenty of mix'n match upper/lowercase has creeped
into the tree since then. Nuke the macros and convert all callsites
to lowercase.
no functional change
the other routines of the same spirit.
Adjust file-system code to use it.
Keep vaccess() for KPI compatibility and to keep element of least
surprise. A "diagnostic" message warning that vaccess() is deprecated will
be printed when it's used (obviously, only in DIAGNOSTIC kernels).
No objections on tech-kern@:

There are still about 1600 left, but they have ',' or /* ... */
in the actual variable definitions - which my awk script doesn't handle.
There are also many that need () -> (void).
(The script does handle misordered arguments.)
The general trend is to remove it from all kernel interfaces and
this is a start. In case the calling lwp is desired, curlwp should
be used.
quick consensus on tech-kern
- LOCKPARENT is no longer relevant for lookup(), relookup() or VOP_LOOKUP().
these now always return the parent vnode locked. namei() works as before.
lookup() and various other paths no longer acquire vnode locks in the
wrong order via vrele(). fixes PR 32535.
as a nice side effect, path lookup is also up to 25% faster.
- the above allows us to get rid of PDIRUNLOCK.
- also get rid of WANTPARENT (just use LOCKPARENT and unlock it).
- remove an assumption in layer_node_find() that all file systems implement
a recursive VOP_LOCK() (unionfs doesn't).
- require that all file systems supply vfs_vptofh and vfs_fhtovp routines.
fill in eopnotsupp() for file systems that don't support being exported
and remove the checks for NULL. (layerfs calls these without checking.)
- in union_lookup1(), don't change refcounts in the ISDOTDOT case, just
adjust which vnode is locked. fixes PR 33374.
- apply fixes for ufs_rename() from ufs_vnops.c rev. 1.61 to ext2fs_rename().
the splay tree has been added for these types. Fix kern/33797 by
Geoff C. Wing.
While here also fix writes the same way (probably broken for 2 years),
and properly implement KERNFS_XREAD.
The IPsec code could probably be moved out now, and use kernfs_alloctype().
- struct timeval time is gone
time.tv_sec -> time_second
- struct timeval mono_time is gone
mono_time.tv_sec -> time_uptime
- access to time via
{get,}{micro,nano,bin}time()
get* versions are fast but less precise
- support NTP nanokernel implementation (NTP API 4)
- further reading:
Timecounter Paper: http://phk.freebsd.dk/pubs/timecounter.pdf
NTP Nanokernel: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/kern.html
way writes are handled: Add KERNFS_XREAD and KERNFS_FILEOP_WRITE files
operations definitions to kfsfileop, a xread function pointer to
kernfs_fileop, rename kernfs_read to kernfs_default_xread and add a
kernfs_read calling kernfs_try_fileop(KERNFS_FILEOP_READ).
Proposed on tech-kern on Feb 18 2006.
- use vmspace rather than proc or lwp where appropriate.
the latter is more natural to specify an address space.
(and less likely to be abused for random purposes.)
- fix a swdmover race.
