Since this argument may be used to pass pointers, uint32 is not
correct for 64-bit. Effectively no change on 32-bit targets, both
size_t and uint32 are unsigned long there.
* Add support function vfs_get_mount_point(), so a file system can get
its own mount point (i.e. the node it covers). Re-added
fs_mount::covers_vnode for that purpose -- the root node isn't know to
the VFS before the mount() hook returns.
* Add function vfs_bind_mount_directory() which bind-mounts a directory
to another. The Vnode::covers/covered_by mechanism is used, so this
isn't true bind-mounting, but sufficient for what we need ATM and
cheaper as well. The vnodes connected thus aren't tracked yet, which
is needed for undoing the connection when unmounting.
* get_vnode_name(): Don't use dir_read() to read the directory. Since we
have already resolved vnode to the covered vnode, we don't want the
dirents to be "fixed" to refer to the covering nodes. Such a vnode
simply wouldn't be found.
* Introduce Vnode flags for covered and covering. Can be used as a quick
check when one doesn't already hold sVnodeLock.
* Rename resolve_mount_point_to_volume_root() to
resolve_vnode_to_covering_vnode().
* Adjust all code that deals with transitions between mount points and
volume root vnodes to generally support covered/covering vnodes.
directory of a file without traversing leaf links (just like lstat()).
* Minor cleanup.

a folder to some other place in the filesystem hierarchy
* add helper function to VFS that encapsulates the "conversion" of a
vnode-pointer to a fs_vnode-pointer (used by bindfs)

* DMABuffer, IORequest, IOScheduler,... and code using them: Use
generic_io_vec and generic_{addr,size}_t where necessary.

argument. They replace the previous special-purpose allocation functions
(malloc_nogrow(), vip_io_request_malloc()).
* Moved the I/O VIP heap to heap.cpp accordingly.
* Added quite a bit of passing around of allocation flags in the VM,
particularly in the VM*AddressSpace classes.
* Fixed IOBuffer::GetNextVirtualVec(): It was ignoring the VIP flag and always
allocated on the normal heap.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@35316 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Implemented renameat(), faccessat(), fchownat(), fchmodat(), and mkfifoat().
* Added stub for mknodat().
* The kernel backend for faccessat() does not yet differentiate between
effective and real user/group IDs, though.
* Removed B_ENABLE_INCOMPLETE_POSIX_AT_SUPPORT, as we now support everything
(more or less). This also closes ticket #4928.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@34288 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
would always inherit them all, causing quite a number of open files.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@34247 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- Fixed vfs_get_vnode_from_fd() return type.
- Added vfs_open_vnode().
- Added a "bool traverseLeafLink" parameter to vfs_get_fs_node_from_path().
It was always resolving symlinks.
* device manager/devfs:
- devfs: get_node_for_path() no longer resolves leaf symlinks. That still
doesn't help with file disk devices, as creating partition wouldn't work
anyway.
- Pulled the module-related implementation part of BaseDevice into new class
AbstractModuleDevice and made all methods of BaseDevice virtual. Small
adjustments to devfs to be happy with the new BaseDevice interface.
- Added BaseDevice subclass FileDevice, which maps the interface to a file's
file descriptor. Still got a few TODOs, but should basically work.
- Use FileDevice for publishing file disk devices in devfs. Now those do
actually work, though there's some BFS trouble with one of the images I
tested.

each attribute access needed 3 syscalls, now only one as it should.
* Renamed the new Haiku call fs_open_attr() to fs_fopen_attr(), and added a new
function fs_open_attr() that takes a path (same semantics as the
fs_[f]open_attr_dir() functions already present in BeOS).
* Merged former _kern_open_attr(), and _kern_create_attr() into one syscall.
* Cleaned up vfs.h.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@31881 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Implemented a way to do asynchronous pre-fetching when mapping files.
* There are slight code duplications in some places that could benefit
from cleaning up, but nothing too bad.
* Implementing smarter ways to trigger prefetching and more analysis of
the situations in the kernel would be nice. Currently up to 10 MB
of every mapped file are pre-fetched without further analysis.
* The speed improvement is nice for certain operations. On our test
system (real hardware), Firefox took 9 seconds from being launched
to display a window. Now it takes 5 seconds. Both measurements
right after booting. The same system took 35 seconds from launching
Haiku in the GRUB menu to displaying the Tracker desktop background
image. Now it takes 27 seconds.
* We didn't have the chance to check out the effects of this on the
CD boot, but potentially, they could speed it up a lot.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@30465 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* The I/O context related vfs_*() functions have io_context* instead of void*
parameters/return values, now.
* vfs_new_io_context(): Lock the parent I/O context before getting its table
size. Otherwise the table size could change until we do.
* vfs_resize_fd_table(): Fixed use of MutexLocker. We created only a temporary
object, not one with function scope.
* Renamed load_image_etc() to load_image_internal() and added a parameter for
specifying the parent team of the one to create.
* Introduced a kernel private load_image_etc() with a few more arguments than
load_image().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@29375 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
function (normalize_path()), now. There was some code duplication
before.
* Added "bool traverseLink" parameter to vfs_normalize_path(). When
true and the leaf component is a symlink, it will be resolved.
* KPath:
- Added similar leaf link traversal parameter to SetTo() and
SetPath().
- Added Normalize().
- Added DetachBuffer(), which returns the object's current buffer and
unsets itself.

writes the given page iovecs asynchronously. The new class
AsyncIOCallback is used to inform the caller when the request has been
finished.

partially (e.g. due to hitting the end of file). The respective
classes have grown new methods and attributes to deal with that. The
"finished" callbacks have got additional parameters to indicate
whether the transfer was only partial and how much has been
transferred. Other callbacks and functions have a size_t* in/out
parameter instead of a simple size_t, now.
* vfs_{read,write}_pages() do now use the I/O request framework instead
of the underlying FS's {read,write}_pages() hooks (those should be
unused now). Furthermore they've got an additional "flags" parameter,
which is passed to IORequest::Init(), i.e. it allows to specify that
the given vecs refer to physical addresses.
* The file cache's read_into_cache() reads directly into physical
pages, now.
* Fixed bug in DoIO::IO(): The offset was not adjusted, so that all
pages were incorrectly transferred from/to the same location.
* Fixed broken subrequest scheduling loop head in
do_iterative_fd_io_iterate().
* Adjusted the test driver and implemented its io() hook. Using this
driver I/O requests are passed all the way from the VFS/VM to the
driver and through the I/O scheduler. It even seems to work. :-)
* Added missing const to the iovec* parameter of the IORequest::Init()
methods.
* Disabled some debug output by default. Added new optional debug
output.

vnode (falling back to synchronous I/O if the io() is not supported).

to provide asynchrounous (or only synchronous, if asynchronous is not
supported) I/O request support. It will eventually replace
{read,write}_pages(). None of the FS implementations implement them
yet.
* Implemented some support functions for request-based I/O. File system
implementations can use do_fd_io() which passes an I/O request to the
layer responsible for a given FD, and do_iterative_fd_io(), which
translates a request for a file to subrequests for the underlying
device and passes them on. Both fall back to synchrounous processing
when the io() hook is not supported.
Furthermore added vfs_synchronous_io() which should be handy for the
devfs to perform io_requests synchronously for devices that don't
support the io() hook.

fs_vnode_ops::write_pages() to be called with fsReenter = true. Since
this is no longer the case, the argument has become superfluous. For
read_pages() it always was. Removed the argument from the functions
and all functions that propagated it.
* Some whitespace at the end of lines was removed.

introduces the following relevant changes:
* VMCache:
- Renamed vm_cache to VMCache, merged it with vm_store and made it a
C++ class with virtual methods (replacing the store operations).
Turned the different store implementations into subclasses.
- Introduced MergeStore() callback, changed semantics of Commit().
- Changed locking and referencing semantics. A reference can only be
acquired/released with the cache locked. An unreferenced cache is
deleted and a mergeable cache merged when it is unlocked. This
removes the "busy" state of a cache and simplifies the page fault
code.
* Added VMAnonymousCache, which will implement swap support (work by
Zhao Shuai). It is not integrated and used yet, though.
* Enabled the mutex/recursive lock holder asserts.
* Fixed DoublyLinkedList::Swap().
* Generalized the low memory handler to a low resource handler. And made
semaphores and reserved memory handled resources. Made
vm_try_resource_memory() optionally wait (with timeout), and used that
feature to reserve memory for areas.

to contain headers shared by kernel and userland (mainly libroot).
* Moved quite a few private kernel headers to the new location. Split
several kernel headers into a shared part and one that is still kernel
private. Adjusted all affected Jamfiles and source in the standard x86
build accordingly. The build for other architectures and for test code
may be broken.
* Quite a bit of userland code still includes private kernel headers.
Mostly those are <util/*> headers. The ones that aren't strictly
kernel-only should be moved to some other place (maybe
headers/private/shared/util).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25486 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- The net_stack driver is no longer used. Instead we have a kernel
module which is directly used by syscall implementations in the
kernel. I.e. we no longer tunnel those functions through ioctls, but
have normal syscalls.
- Removed the superfluous net starter module.
- Implemented the FDTYPE_SOCKET type file_descriptors, that is sockets
are no longer vnode based.
- Adjusted libnetwork (the socket function implementations)
accordingly.
- Adjusted netstat accordingly.
* Socket module:
- Implemented socketpair().
- Added "kernel" parameter to the control hook. Quite a few more hooks
would actually need the parameter, but I didn't change those yet,
since that would probably also require changes to the protocol
module interface.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24908 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
FIFO. Reimplemented pipe() to use it.
* pipefs is no longer mounted. Will remove the superfluous code soon.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24823 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- Moved most file_system_module_info hooks into separate structures.
Those that operate on mounted volumes to fs_volume_ops, those
operating on a vnode to fs_vnode_ops.
- Got rid of the fs_volume, fs_cookie, fs_vnode typedefs. We use void*
again.
- Instead of a void* volume and node cookie hooks are passed a
fs_volume and fs_vnode structure pointer, which contain the cookie
and an ops pointer (fs_volume a few more things).
- The VFS {new,publish,get,...}_vnode() functions take a fs_volume*
instead of the volume ID. So does vfs_get_fs_node_from_path().
- Added type and flags arguments to publish_vnode() and the
get_vnode() hook and removed the type argument from lookup() hook.
Added vnode::type using formerly unused bits to store the node type.
Simplified a few things in the VFS due to the now always available
node type.
- Added fs_volume_ops::{create,delete}_sub_vnode() and
fs_vnode_ops::get_super_vnode() hooks. They are used to support file
system layers, e.g. allowing to extend an FS not supporting BeOS
attribute with attribute support. Needs some more work in the VFS.
- Added fs_vnode_ops::create_special_node() hook for creating special
nodes (e.g. FIFOs).
* Adjusted the built-in file systems and BFS according to the interface
changes. Removed all other FSs from the image for the time being.
We'll see whether further API changes are necessary before porting
them.
* Adjusted the bfs_shell accordingly.
* Implemented create_special_node() in rootfs to support special nodes.
* Added support for FIFOs:
- Added syscall _kern_create_fifo() (used by mkfifo()), which creates
a special node (type S_IFIFO) in the respective file system.
- When a special node is published the VFS creates a respective sub
node. Currently only FIFOs are supported.
- Added a little support for FIFO subnodes by using functionality from
the pipefs.
- Added mkfifo to the image. It can create FIFOs in the rootfs, but
the FIFOs aren't really usable ATM, since they still work like
pipes, i.e. readers and writers need to have them open at the same
time.
* Some smaller changes in the VFS:
- Made the *_CALL macros nicer to use (vargs).
- Refactored FS entry lookup into new function lookup_dir_entry().
- create_vnode() no longer just calls the FS create() hook. First it
looks up the entry and uses open_vnode(), if it already exists. This
is necessary for two reasons: 1) The FS might not support create()
while still allowing to open() entries. 2) When the FS has other
layers on to of it (or the respective node) it might not be
responsible for opening the node.

and ino_t instead of a path. Supposed to work with node monitoring messages.
Took the name from vfs_entry_ref_to_path() that takes the same arguments, but
suggestions for a better name are welcome.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24813 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- Added a "root" vnode to the io_context. It is used for resolving
paths and converting nodes to paths instead of sRoot. Some more
passing around of io_context structures was necessary.
- Introduced a new lock sIOContextRootLock to protect
io_context::root. The current uses of io_context::io_mutex
(put_vnode(), remove_vnode() while holding it) looked too suspicious
to use that mutex in vnode_path_to_vnode().
- Added _kern_change_root() syscall and chroot() libroot function.
- Added chroot coreutils program to the image. Funnily it seems to be
much easier to set up a little jail than under Linux (just copy
bash and libroot.so into respective subdirs; mount another pipefs
if you want pipe support).
With Haiku allowing direct access to directories via inode IDs
jailing is obviously not very secure at the moment.
- Added /var/empty to the image. It will be the chroot target for ssh.
* Changed vfs.cpp:get_cwd() so that the io_context::io_mutex is no
longer held when calling dir_vnode_to_path().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24673 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
and made it public (within the kernel).
* _user_entry_ref_to_path() is now using that function.

(must also compare to BSD; I've looked at their sources, but I might have
missed something).
* Added sys/file.h and the flock() system call.
* common_fcntl() could forget to put back the file descriptor on some error
conditions (I guess we should introduce and use a DescriptorGetter class).
* Cleaned up fcntl.h, moved the BSD extensions S_IREAD and S_IWRITE to
sys/stat.h where they belong, and added the missing S_IEXEC to them.
* Added some more comments.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23836 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added vfs_unmount(), which allows unmounting by dev_t (used by the DDM).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22910 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
that can be used by file systems.
* Changed the way the file cache works: instead of reading/writing to the
underlying device directly, it can now be used for any data source, ie.
also network file systems.
* As a result, the former pages_io() moved to the VFS layer, and can now be
called by a file system via {read|write}_file_io_vec_pages() (naming
suggestions are always welcomed :-)). It now gets an FD, and uses that to
communicate with the device (via its fs_{read|write}_pages() hooks).
* The file_cache_{read|write}() functions must now be called without holding
an I/O relevant file system lock. That allows the file cache to prepare the
pages without colliding with the page writer, IOW the "mayBlock" flag can
go into the attic again (yay!).
* This also results in a much better performance when the system does I/O and
is low on memory, as the page writer can now finally write back some pages,
and that even without maxing out the CPU :)
* The API changes put slightly more burden on the fs_{read|write}_pages()
hooks, but in combination with the file_map it's still pretty straight
forward. It just will have to dispatch the call to the underlying device
directly, usually it will just call its fs_{read|write}_pages() hooks
via the above mentioned calls.
* Ported BFS and FAT to the new API, the latter has not been tested, though.
* Also ported the API changes to the fs_shell. I also completely removed its
file cache level page handling - the downside is that device access is no
longer cached (ie. depends on the host OS now), the upside is that the code
is greatly simplified.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22886 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
busy vnodes.
* dir_create_entry_ref() used get_vnode() incorrectly (and could therefore
potentially prevent a file system from doing proper locking when called
from the kernel).
* The vnode_store now uses this for its acquire_unreferenced_ref()
implementation (and therefore for the page writer).
* read_into_cache() and write_to_cache() were still marked inline.
* The system will now wait 10 secs for a busy vnode before returning an error.
* It will also no longer panic in that case.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22485 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* the page writer don't allow to block, while all other writers do. This fixes
bug #1509. The reason the page writer needs this is because it marks several
pages from different caches as busy.
* Fixed a warning about ASSERT being defined already in BFS, since
util/DoublyLinkedList.h now includes debug.h.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22434 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Reworked the select support:
- The io_context additionally stores a table of lists of select_infos,
which enables it to deselect events of a pending select() when
closing a FD. This prevents a race condition potentially causing a
write to stale memory.
- The opaque selectsync* passed to FSs is now actually a select_info*.
This was necessary, since the FDs deselect() hook (unlike the
select() hook) doesn't take a "ref" argument and deselecting a
single info (e.g. caused by a premature close()) was not possible.
The select() hook's "ref" argument has become superfluous.
- It should now be relatively easy to implement a poll_on_steroids()
that can also wait for objects other than FDs (e.g. semaphores,
ports, threads etc.).
* Set/reset the signal mask in common_select(). This makes pselect()
work as required.
* Reorganized vfs_resize_fd_table().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22391 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Removed the vm_cache/vm_store ref_count duality that besides being a bit ugly
also created the page dameon cache retrieval problem: now, only areas (and
cache consumers) retrieve a reference to the store (and therefore, the vnode).
The page daemon doesn't need to care about this at all anymore, and the pseudo
references of the vm_cache could be removed again.
* Rearranged deletion of vnodes such that its ID can be reused directly after
fs_remove_vnode() has been called.
* vm_page_allocate_page() no longer panics when it runs out of pages, but just
waits for new pages to become available using the new sFreeCondition condition
variable - to make sure this happens in an acceptable time frame, it'll
trigger a run of the low memory handlers.
* Implemented a page_thief() that steals inactive pages from caches and puts
them into the free queue. It runs as a low memory handler.
* The file cache now sets the usage count on the pages it inserts into the
cache (needs some rework though, cache_io() doesn't do it yet).
* Instead of panicking, the kernel will currently dead lock in low memory
situations, since BFS does a bit too much in bfs_release_vnode().
* Some minor cleanup.

systems a chance to know if they have locked already.
This fixes a locking problem in BFS where one thread tried to acquire two read
locks (where someone else trying to acquire a write lock would have caused a
dead lock).

* devfs_unpublish_device() can now optionally make use of this call.
* Fixed the type check of devfs' unpublish_node().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@16907 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
of that list.
* Added a vfs_free_unused_vnodes() function that calls the low memory handler
directly.
* create_sem_etc() now calls the above function in case there are no semaphores
available anymore; this usually frees up to 2 semaphores per node (one from
the cache if there is a file cache attached, and eventually one from the
file system).
