again. This is useful until locking is further developed and basically
any deadlocks can be solved by killing appropriate processes.
Thanks especially to Tommi Kyntola and Antti Louko for sitting down
with me and discussing resource ownership and locking strategies
in implementing this.
workaround for the problem analyzed more deeply in kern/30831. In
short, the problem is keeping the vnode on the mount point vnode
list during reclaim. If reclaim happens to sleep (as is a possibility
with smbfs due to calling vrele() and therefore possibly VOP_INACTIVE),
code going through the entire mountpoint vnode list will hit
half-reclaimed vnodes.
from putop. even though there's only one user currently, makes code
more readable
* move "delta" to a standard parameter in vntouser and get rid of the
specialcase vntouser_delta
bunch of bugs.
* park structures are now always allocated from a pool instead of a
mixed stack/malloc allocation
* get rid of the whole adjbuf concept, always just alloc the maximal
amount of memory to satisfy a request
* little regression: don't allow interrupting wait from file system
to userspace; this had problems already before, but now the problems
really started to shine through. I'll try to make this work again
some day.
* fix bmap to return a sensible value in runp
Remove offset argument, we should now find an HFS+ volume in any
of its standard places.
Based on work from and test image provided by Pelle Johansson.
kernel and flush it out all at once instead of continuous updating
* add support for delivering notifications to the file server about
when a page was written to (but disabled by default for now). the
file server can use this to request flushing or invalidating the
kernel page cache
(hfslib_open_volume) We are only interested in the catalgo and
extents header, so read the first 512 bytes, not the whole first
extent. Also makes mounting a lot faster.
possible to recover the system by just killing processes in case
a file server manages to recurse into itself either by fault of
file server implementation or by pilot error. The downside is that
the code is extremely hard to follow and practically screams out
for newlock2 (in addition to screaming "bug here"). The whole
PCATCH nonsense and induced megacomplexity can hopefully be avoided
in the future by tweaking other parts of the implementation.
positive values of errno and 0. Otherwise it can return internal values
such as EJUSTRETURN and screw things up.
thanks to Bill for reminding me to revisit this
Since 1.40, which introduced support for non-DEV_BSIZE media,
mounting msdos floppy returned ENOTTY.
This is because floppy driver does not support DIOCGPART or DIOCWEDGEINFO
ioctl.
Those ioctls should not be a requirement for mounting msdosfs.
This patch is made by Christian Biere.
VFS_ROOT() if the cookies match. Without this fix, if the root
vnode was reclaimed, doing lookups for dotdot from the root vnode
was possible. In practice this occured only through getcwd.
