backing file per attribute type indexed by inode number to hold the extended
attributes.
This is working pretty well on my test systems, except for the "autostart"
feature. I need someone with a better handle on the VFS locking protocol
to go over that.
This is a work-in-progress. There are parts of this that could be re-factored
allowing this approach to be used on other types of file systems.
Adapted from FreeBSD.
to prevent unnecessary block allocations in the case that
page size > block size.
- ufs_balloc_range: use VM_PROT_WRITE+PGO_NOBLOCKALLOC rather than
VM_PROT_READ.
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.
The __UNCONST macro is now used only where necessary and the RW macros
are gone. Most of the changes here are consumers of the
sysctl_createv(9) interface that now takes a pair of const pointers
which used not to be.
- Add a missing ACTIVECG_CLR().
ffs/ffs_snapshot.c:
- Use async/delayed writes for snapshot creation and sync/uncache these buffers
on end. Reduces the time the file system must be suspended.
- Remove um_snaplistsize. Was a duplicate of um_snapblklist[0].
- Byte swap the list of preallocated blocks on read/write instead of access.
- Always keep this list on ip->i_snapblklist so it may be rolled back when the
newest snapshot gets removed. Fixes a rare snapshot corruption when using
more than one snapshot on a file system.
ufs/ufsmount.h:
- Make TAILQ_LAST() possible on member um_snapshots.
- Remove um_snaplistsize. Was a duplicate of um_snapblklist[0].
do this anymore (it hasn't for quite some time). Add a couple of conditional
debugging messages to indicate why segments are not cleaned, in the event
that lfs_segclean is used.
Make the LFCNSEGWAITALL fcntl work again.
segments containing zero-block FINFO records. These records cause segments
to become uncleanable, which would eventually result in a "no clean segments"
panic.
The last block of the file system is written to the snapshot before the
file system is suspended. If the last cylinder group is modified after
the file system is suspended the last block of the snapshot may contain
old data. So update this block again.
lfs_balloc(), and use that to estimate the number of dirty pages belonging
to LFS (subsystem or filesystem). This is almost certainly wrong for
the case of a large mmap()ed region, but the accounting is tighter than
what we had before, and performs much better in the typical case of pages
dirtied through write().
