- 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.
- for structure fields that are conditionally present,
make those fields always present.
- for functions which are conditionally inline, make them never inline.
- remove some other functions which are conditionally defined but
don't actually do anything anymore.
- make a lock-debugging function conditional on only LOCKDEBUG.
as discussed on tech-kern some time back.
- Remove all NFS related stuff from file system specific code.
- Drop the vfs_checkexp hook and generalize it in the new nfs_check_export
function, thus removing redundancy from all file systems.
- Move all NFS export-related stuff from kern/vfs_subr.c to the new
file sys/nfs/nfs_export.c. The former was becoming large and its code
is always compiled, regardless of the build options. Using the latter,
the code is only compiled in when NFSSERVER is enabled. While doing this,
also make some functions in nfs_subs.c conditional to NFSSERVER.
- Add a new command in nfssvc(2), called NFSSVC_SETEXPORTSLIST, that takes a
path and a set of export entries. At the moment it can only clear the
exports list or append entries, one by one, but it is done in a way that
allows setting the whole set of entries atomically in the future (see the
comment in mountd_set_exports_list or in doc/TODO).
- Change mountd(8) to use the nfssvc(2) system call instead of mount(2) so
that it becomes file system agnostic. In fact, all this whole thing was
done to remove a 'XXX' block from this utility!
- Change the mount*, newfs and fsck* userland utilities to not deal with NFS
exports initialization; done internally by the kernel when initializing
the NFS support for each file system.
- Implement an interface for VFS (called VFS hooks) so that several kernel
subsystems can run arbitrary code upon receipt of specific VFS events.
At the moment, this only provides support for unmount and is used to
destroy NFS exports lists from the file systems being unmounted, though it
has room for extension.
Thanks go to yamt@, chs@, thorpej@, wrstuden@ and others for their comments
and advice in the development of this patch.
if the filesystem is not compiled in the kernel still links. Probably
a better solution is to use weak symbols.
- move the filesystem-specific itime macros to the filesystem header files.
from macros to real functions. Original patch and review from chuq.
Note: ext2fs only keeps seconds in the on-disk inode, and msdosfs does not
have enough precision for all fields, so this is not very useful for those
two.
we change the size of the inode, and use ext2fs_size uniformly.
This fixes a crash that occurs when I create a directory, then
move it, all on an ext2 filesystem.
into the "vfsops" link set.
- Use VFS_ATTACH() where vfsops are declared for individual file systems.
- In vfsinit(), traverse the "vfsops" link set, rather than vfs_list_initial[].
Like Linux, automagically convert old filesystem to use this,
if they are already at revision 1.
For revision 0, just punt (unlike Linux; makes me a bit too nervous.)
There should be an option to fsck_ext2fs to upgrade revision 0 to revision 1.
Reviewd by Manuel (bouyer@).
this means we can no longer look at the vnode size to determine how many
pages to request in a fault, which is good since for NFS the size can change
out from under us on the server anyway. there's also a new flag UBC_UNMAP
for ubc_release(), so that the file system code can make the decision about
whether to cache mappings for files being used as executables.
foo_mountfs() to foo_mount(), to match the new mountroot API.
Also, for ext2fs and lfs, copy some restructuring from ffs to allow changing
file system parameters without specifying the device name.
(ntfs could use some more work.)
and just passes it on to the file system functions. This avoids opening and
closing the device several times.
Mentioned on tech-kern some time ago, IIRC. I've been running this for a
long time.
top bit in block addresses.
Also, change some daddr_t->int32_t casts (mostly as arguments to ufs_rw32(),
where they would get promoted anyway) to u_int32_t.
calls to ensure that the vnode lock state is as expected when the VOP
call is made. Modify vnode_if.src to set the expected state according
to the documenting lock table for each VOP. Modify vnode_if.sh to emit
the checks.
Notes:
- The checks are only performed if the vnode has the VLOCKSWORK bit
set. Some file systems (e.g. specfs) don't even bother with vnode
locks, so of course the checks will fail.
- We can't actually run with VNODE_LOCKDEBUG because there are so many
vnode locking problems, not the least of which is the "use SHARED for
VOP_READ()" issue, which screws things up for the entire call chain.
Inspired by similar changes in OpenBSD, but implemented differently.
* Rather than using mnt_maxsymlinklen to indicate that a file systems returns
d_type fields(!), add a new internal flag, IMNT_DTYPE.
Add 3 new elements to ufsmount:
* um_maxsymlinklen, replaces mnt_maxsymlinklen (which never should have existed
in the first place).
* um_dirblksiz, which tracks the current directory block size, eliminating the
FS-specific checks littered throughout the code. This may be used later to
make the block size variable.
* um_maxfilesize, which is the maximum file size, possibly adjusted lower due
to implementation issues.
Sync some bug fixes from FFS into ext2fs, particularly:
* ffs_lookup.c 1.21, 1.28, 1.33, 1.48
* ffs_inode.c 1.43, 1.44, 1.45, 1.66, 1.67
* ffs_vnops.c 1.84, 1.85, 1.86
Clean up some crappy pointer frobnication.
rarely in the normal case. (Note: This happens at reboot/shutdown time because
all file systems are unmounted.)
Also, for IN_MODIFY, use IN_ACCESSED, not IN_MODIFIED; otherwise "ls -l" of
your device node or FIFO would cause the time stamps to get written too
quickly.
setting those flags, it does not cause the inode to be written in the periodic
sync. This is used for writes to special files (devices and named pipes) and
FIFOs.
Do not preemptively sync updates to access times and modification times. They
are now updated in the inode only opportunistically, or when the file or device
is closed. (Really, it should be delayed beyond close, but this is enough to
help substantially with device nodes.)
And the most amusing part:
Trickle sync was broken on both FFS and ext2fs, in different ways. In FFS, the
periodic call to VFS_SYNC(MNT_LAZY) was still causing all file data to be
synced. In ext2fs, it was causing the metadata to *not* be synced. We now
only call VOP_UPDATE() on the node if we're doing MNT_LAZY. I've confirmed
that we do in fact trickle correctly now.
