zero - our implementation can't handle it (how sensible handling
a case like that would be is a whole other debate).
fixes panic reported by Jukka Salmi on current-users
the newly added space first. This significantly speeds up write speed for
msdosfs and making it at par with ffs wich already had this patched.
Speed increase measured on my IDE disc from 2Mb/sec to 32 Mb/sec
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.

* don't reimplement eopnotsupp()
* init genfs_node earlier vget, protects against error paths in vget
from attempting to destroy a non-inited node
same file were renamed simultaneously, there was a window where
directory entry cached in the vnode during lookup would be replaced
before calling rename. This lead to one directory entry getting
renamed twice and the other one getting zero renames. Do a relookup
in rename to make sure we have the correct directory entry.
Thanks go to Greg Oster for reporting the problem, helping with
debugging and thoroughly testing the patch.
called with NOWAIT.
XXX: this is just a quick fix to stop the diagnostic panic. I
think ENOSPC should be treated elsewhere depending on how much
memory tmpfs claims.
thing and release locks before the userspace wait for operations
which release the lock before exit from the method in any case.
However, releasing the lock after inserting the request on the
operation queue gives us proper ordering possibilities in userspace
(at least if that bit were implemented, but I don't think there
any file system in userspace that depends on kernel locking and
probably there never should be one).
inspired by a conversation with Nacho Navarro
with the file server happen through puffs_msg_enqueue() and
puffs_msg_wait() instead of having a billion different routines.
Build the existing system upon these two. Most importantly though,
decouple insertation into the op queue from the actual wait. This
is useful for a number of reasons coming soon to a cvs repo near you.
unlocked vnode when trying to rename a directory. The fix was to
shuffle some bits around and #pray.
The rename routine actually needs a very very major wide-angle whopping:
* it takes locks out-of-order
* it deals with references from SAVESTART lookups in interesting ways
* I doubt there is any guarantee for correct operation if there
are multiple concurrent accesses
* the error branches might just as well call panic() directly
Rip the transport code completely out of puffs and generalize it
into an independent module which will be used for multiple purposes
in the future. This module is called the Pass-to-Userspace
Transporter (known as "putter" among friends).
This is very much work-in-progress and one dependency with puffs
remains: the request framing format.
The device name is still /dev/puffs, but that will change soon.
Users of puffs need the following in their kernel configs now:
