condition was addressed in libpuffs by counting lookups.
The fix assumes that cookies map to struct puffs_cookie, which has not
been documented as a requirement for filesystems using libpuffs. As an
example, we got burnt by this assumption in libp2k (kern/46734), and
we fixed bit by actually mapping libp2k cookies to struct puffs_node.
It is unlikely, but there may be third party filesystems that use cookies
unmapped to struct puffs_node, and they were left broken for now.
- we introduce a puffs_init() flag PUFFS_FLAG_PNCOOKIE that let filesystems
inform libpuffs that they map cookies to struct puffs_node. Is that flag
is used, the lookup/reclaim race condition fix is enabled. We enable the
flag for libp2k.
- filesystems that use puffs_pn_new() obviouslty use struct puffs_node
and gain PUFFS_FLAG_PNCOOKIE automatically even if they did not specify
it in puffs_init(). This include all our PUFFS filesystem in-tree except
libp2k.
- for filesystems not willing to use struct puffs_node, we introduce a
reclaim2 vnop, which is reclaim with an additionnal lookup count argument.
This vnop let the filesystem implement the lookup/reclaim race fix on
its own.
attribute and TTL fora newly created node. Instead extend puffs_newinfo
and add puffs_newinfo_setva() and puffs_newinfo_setttl()
- Remove node_mk_common_final in libperfuse. It used to set uid/gid for
a newly created vnode but has been made redundant along time ago since
uid and gid are properly set in FUSE header.
- In libperfuse, check for corner case where opc = 0 on INACTIVE and RECLAIM (how is it possible? Check for it to avoid a crash anyway)
- In libperfuse, make sure we unlimit RLIMIT_AS and RLIMIT_DATA so that
we do notrun out of memory because the kernel is lazy at reclaiming vnodes.
- In libperfuse, cleanup style of perfuse_destroy_pn()
attribute cache with filesystem provided TTL.
lookup, create, mknod, mkdir, symlink, getattr and setattr messages
have been extended so that attributes and their TTL can be provided
by the filesytem. lookup, create, mknod, mkdir, and symlink messages
are also extended so that the filesystem can provide name TTL.
The filesystem updates attributes and TTL using
puffs_pn_getvap(3), puffs_pn_getvattl(3), and puffs_pn_getcnttl(3)
and destroyed, but not yet reclaimed. This prevents puffs_pn_nodewalk()
from returning stale entries. Make nullfs use this (some file
systems are a bit too happy with recycling inode numbers).
accessors for interesting data in it. Namely, you can now get
pu->pu_privdata with puffs_getspecific(), pu->pu_pn_root with
puffs_set/getroot() and pu->pu_maxreqlen with puffs_getmaxreqlen().
system backends which operate purely based on paths, push out more
path management into the library and make path management more
abstract: enable a file system to define a bunch of path management
callbacks, which are used by the framework. Management of normal
/this/is/a/path type paths is provided by the library.
a directory hierarchy to another point, just like with the kernel
nullfs. This is not really a layering scheme yet, but it should
evolve into one. Currently it can just be used to do 1:1 mapping.
Add support for having multiple outstanding operations. This is done
by exposing enough interfaces so that it is convenient to have the
main event loop in the implementation itself and by providing a
continuation framework for convinient blocking and rescheduling.
works fine, but will undergo further cleanup & development
