malloc types into a structure, a pointer to which is passed around,
instead of an int constant. Allow the limit to be adjusted when the
malloc type is defined, or with a function call, as suggested by
Jonathan Stone.
adjusted via sysctl. file systems that have hash tables which are
sized based on the value of this variable now resize those hash tables
using the new value. the max number of FFS softdeps is also recalculated.
convert various file systems to use the <sys/queue.h> macros for
their hash tables.
queueing up buffers and awakening the MFS server process to do the I/O,
we do the I/O to the server process's address space directly using
facilities provided by UVM.
This makes it possible for buffers attempting to flush out while the
MFS is being unmounted to actually do the I/O, where before it would
fail if the server process wasn't in the MFS idle loop (i.e. had been
signaled and was attempting to exit).
Should fix kern/10122 (I can no longer reproduce the problem described
in the PR when running with these changes), and any number of other
MFS-related complaints made by people over time.
in vfs_detach(). vfs_done may free global filesystem's resources,
typically those allocated in respective filesystem's init function.
Needed so those filesystems which went in via LKM have a chance to
clean after themselves before unloading.
For each leaf filesystem, add appropriate vfs_done routine.
Also remember how many times ffs_init() was called and do
the appropriate initialization on first call only. In ffs_done(),
destroy the resources when called by the last user of ffs code.
Change mfs to call ffs_init()/ffs_done() appropriately.
'const char *', and 'void *', respectively. The second arg is taken directly
from user arguments, and is const there, so must be const in the prototypes
and functions. The third arg is also taken directly from user arguments.
It doesn't have to be changed, but since it's cleaner to keep the type
the same as the user arg's type, and I'm already making the 'const char *'
change...
