* search_module() checked the module paths in the wrong order, ie. it preferred
modules in the system directory over the user directory.
* Clarified comment in vfs_get_module_path().

* Applied patch by Vasilis to fix some warnings when build on Linux (missing
const on certain functions). We should probably fix the original
{add|remove}_debugger_command() functions in Haiku as well.

* This fixes occasional crashes with reloaded/repulished drivers.
* Minor cleanup.

* driver_entry::api_version now stores the actual version instead of a
pointer to it.
* Renamed node_path_entry to path_entry and reused it for driver
reloading: handle_driver_events() will now also check for drivers to
add in the sDriversToAdd list.
* Added new devfs_driver_added(), and devfs_driver_removed() functions
that trigger certain driver actions.
* Implemented notifying devfs on B_ENTRY_CREATED, B_ENTRY_REMOVED, and
B_ENTRY_MOVED events in probe.cpp. The watched directory inode numbers
are now stored in a hash for B_ENTRY_MOVED.
* unpublish_driver() did not actually delete the node, it only marked
it removable since we never get/put the node. We now do, and so the
node is actually removed as intended.
* Added "devfs_driver" KDL command.
* Minor cleanup.

* load_driver() now uses republish_driver() instead of publishing all
devices every time. This allows published nodes to remain stable, no
matter if the driver has been unloaded in the mean time or not.
* Offloaded driver reloading to a kernel daemon. Since this is regarded
to happen rarely, a simple event variable will be set when something
happened, and the daemon will then check all known drivers.
* devfs_open() will now check if the driver has to be reloaded, and will
do so before opening the device.
* Moved republish_driver() around again.

{get|put}_node() is not really what we want either; moved the maintenance
into the open() and free_cookie() hooks.
* This should fix driver reloading on change for drivers that have been used
before.

NodeMonitor.h.
* The latter will be set in "statFields" for interim updates when you have
asked to get them via the former.
* BFS now uses the B_STAT_INTERIM_UPDATE flag for sending updates to actively
written files.
* This makes us more compatible with BeOS again; if you only asked for
B_WATCH_STAT, you will now only receive a notification if the file in
question has been closed.
* Tracker now uses B_WATCH_INTERIM_STAT to always get all updates (ie.
downloading a file will update its size and modification time in Tracker
periodically during the download).
* Wether "needsTrimming" was true or not has no influence on wether or not
the size index needs to be updated in BFS - only the actual file size is
stored there, not the on-disk size.
* Added a TODO comment in Inode::WriteAt() that it would actually need to
update the size index when changing the file size, not when the file has
been closed (but that's probably too slow).

* Right now, only already known loaded drivers will be monitored for changes;
their devices aren't republished, though, since that would cause a deadlock
in the node notification mechanism (listeners are called synchronously);
need to offload that the event handling to another thread.
* On changes of (known) driver directories, the device manager will now print
some info to the syslog.
* Fixed republish_driver() I broke recently (would skip every other node), and
moved it to the driver functions section of the devfs.cpp.
* Implemented currently unused unpublish_driver() function that would have to
be called before reloading a driver.
* If a driver is in use when it's updated, we mark it, but we don't do anything
with that info when we could.
* Minor cleanup.

is (l_start - 1 + l_len) not just (l_start + l_len).
* F_UNLCK removes all locks of the calling process that are within the specified
region - existing locks might also cut or divided.
* Apparently, a single team can lock the same region as often as it wants.
* advisory_locking is now using a DoublyLinkedList instead of its C counterpart.
* advisory_lock now has start + end fields, instead of offset + len, it's
handier this way.
* This fixes bug #1791.

* Allow driver::publish_devices() to return NULL to hint that it has no devices
to publish anymore (ie. existing devices will be unpublished in this case).
* republish_driver() now also calls load_driver() in case the driver is not
loaded.
* publish_device() and unpublish_node() now maintain the new
driver_entry::devices_published field, so we always know how many devices
a driver has now.
* Minor cleanup.

* Implemented automatic syscall restarts:
- A syscall can indicate that it has been interrupted and can be
restarted by setting a respective bit in thread::flags. It can
store parameters it wants to be preserved for the restart in
thread::syscall_restart::parameters. Another thread::flags bit
indicates whether it has been restarted.
- handle_signals() clears the restart flag, if the handled signal
has a handler function installed and SA_RESTART is not set. Another
thread flag (THREAD_FLAGS_DONT_RESTART_SYSCALL) can prevent syscalls
from being restarted, even if they could be (not used yet, but we
might want to use it in resume_thread(), so that we stay
behaviorally compatible with BeOS).
- The architecture specific syscall handler restarts the syscall, if
the restart flag is set. Implemented for x86 only.
- Added some support functions in the private <syscall_restart.h> to
simplify the syscall restart code in the syscalls.
- Adjusted all syscalls that can potentially be restarted accordingly.
- _user_ioctl() sets new thread flag THREAD_FLAGS_IOCTL_SYSCALL while
calling the underlying FS's/driver's hook, so that syscall restarts
can also be supported there.
* thread_at_kernel_exit() invokes handle_signals() in a loop now, as
long as the latter indicates that the thread shall be suspended, so
that after waking up signals received in the meantime will be handled
before the thread returns to userland. Adjusted handle_signals()
accordingly -- when encountering a suspending signal we don't check
for further signals.
* Fixed sigsuspend(): Suspending the thread and rescheduling doesn't
result in the correct behavior. Instead we employ a temporary
condition variable and interruptably wait on it. The POSIX test
suite test passes, now.
* Made the switch_sem[_etc]() behavior on interruption consistent.
Depending on when the signal arrived (before the call or when already
waiting) the first semaphore would or wouldn't be released. Now we
consistently release it.
* Refactored _user_{read,write}[v]() syscalls. Use a common function for
either pair. The iovec version doesn't fail anymore, if anything could
be read/written at all. It also checks whether a complete vector
could be read/written, so that we won't skip data, if the underlying
FS/driver couldn't read/write more ATM.
* Some refactoring in the x86 syscall handler: The int 99 and sysenter
handlers use a common subroutine to avoid code duplication.

The return value of Inode::WaitForRequest() is status_t not bool. So the
method would always fail when it actually succeeded. This affected reads
from pipes which didn't have data. The bug was hidded since VFS code
mostly checks error codes only against < B_OK, so that such a read would
be treated as 0 byte read.

(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.

* Reverted r23828-r23830 in File.cpp: don't fix the symptoms but the cause
of the problem (hey, that has to be in the kernel, right? :))
* Cleanup of File.cpp, removed OpenBeOS namespace.
* Moved user_fd_kernel_ioctl() to the section where it belongs to (that
function should be renamed, though).

vm_cache_write_modified() here anymore since quite some time, it actually
doesn't make any sense to call the file system's "fsync" method here.
This should make syncing all file systems much faster when many vnodes are
in use.
* If a file system doesn't use the file cache, it can still just sync everything
it needs to in its "sync" method.
* Added a TODO item on how to improve sync speed further, if necessary.

23139 into trunk, with roughly the following changes (for details svn
log the branch):
* The int 99 syscall handler is now fully in assembly.
* Added a sysenter/sysexit handler and use it on Pentiums that support
it (via commpage).
* Got rid of i386_handle_trap(). A bit of functionality was moved into
the assembly handler which now uses a jump table to call C functions
handling the respective interrupt.
* Some optimizations to get user debugger support code out of the
interrupt handling path.
* Introduced a thread::flags fields which allows to skip handling of
rare events (signals, user debug enabling/disabling) on the
common interrupt handling path.
* Got rid of the explicit iframe stack. The iframes can still be
retrieved by iterating through the stack frames.
* Made the commpage an architecture independent feature. It's used for
the real time data stuff (instead of creating a separate area).
* The x86 CPU modules can now provide processor optimized versions for
common functions (currently memcpy() only). They are used in the
kernel and are provided to the userland via commpage entries.
* Introduced build system feature allowing easy use of C structure
member offsets in assembly code.
Changes after merging:
* Fixed merge conflict in src/system/kernel/arch/x86/arch_debug.cpp
(caused by refactoring and introduction of "call" debugger command).

set when the first chunk of the file could be read in directly, causing it
to read data to a wrong place in the buffer.
* Reading in the first chunk directly would have also only worked if vecIndex
and vecOffset was 0 when calling the function.
* Applied the fs_shell changes in file_map to the kernel version as well (the
constructor already worked correctly, though).

tried to access the uninitialized vnode in that case).
* That means that it's now safe to remove a mounted CD from the drive, it
will then be unmounted automatically.
* Added a check for partition::Device() - even though Ingo tells me it's
impossible, it was NULL once.
* Minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22922 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.

synchronous scanning is supported.
* Removed the disk device job support from the disk device manager.
* K{Disk,File,Partitioning}System:
- Remove querying and validation methods.
- Commented out the modification methods until their fate is decided.
* Removed obsolete _user_get_partitionable_spaces().

The low memory handler now has two passes which should help there; however, it
might also accidently remove recently used vnodes, too. We could mark the clean
ones in some way if that turns out to be a problem.

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.

mjw for the hint. Fixes bug #1516.
* Changed _{kern,user}_create_symlink() to no longer check the supplied
link string. BeOS seems to do that, but this is not standard
conforming. The previous implementation even used the path processed
by check_path(), which would potentially have appended a ".".
* Some style cleanup.

* 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.

vfs_select.h, respectively moved most of it into the new kernel
private header wait_for_objects.h.
* Added new experimental API functions wait_for_objects[_etc](). They
work pretty much like poll(), but also for semaphores, ports, and
threads.
* Removed the "ref" parameter from notify_select_events() and the
select_sync_pool functions as well as from fd_ops::fd_[de]select(). It
is no longer needed. The FS interface select() hook still has it,
though -- the VFS will always pass 0.
* de]select_fd() take a select_info* instead of a select_sync* + ref
pair, now. Added respective functions for semaphores, ports, and
threads.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22416 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* In select_fd(): First get the file descriptor, then check whether any
events have to be selected at all. This has the advantage that the
caller can interpret an error return code as invalid FD. Consequently
common_poll() no longer checks FD validity separately -- this was a
race condition.
* common_poll() always selects POLLERR and POLLHUP now, which it has to
do according to the specs.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22400 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().

writers.
* Removed the optimization for piping data between two threads of the
same team. This greatly simplifies the code. It seems to me the case
is very uncommon; it could be added back later, though.
* Basically rewrote reading from and writing to the pipe:
- A blockable writer can now write more than what is currently
available in the ring buffer.
- Writing respects the PIPE_BUF non-interleaving limit, though our
headers don't seem to define PIPE_BUF anywhere.
- Unblock writers, when the last reader is gone and send those that
haven't written anything yet a SIGPIPE. Fixes bug #1476.
* Correctly implemented select() support. We were only notifying
writers. We manage two separate select sync pools per pipe now: one
for the reader end and one for the writer end.
* Reading/writing from the root dir does no longer end in KDL.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22378 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.

* Added file_system_module_info::flags (analogously to
partition_module_info::flags) which indicate which disk device
features the FS supports.
* Replaced the
file_system_module_info/partition_module_info::supports_*()
hooks by a get_supported_operations() hook and for partitioning
systems additionally a get_supported_child_operations() hook.
* Updated file and partitioning systems accordingly.
* Updated fs_shell accordingly.
* Updated the DDM accordingly. The syscall interface remains unchanged,
though.
* _user_supports_initializing_partition() also checks whether the parent
partitioning system is content now.

* Inode::MayReleaseWriter() would release the semaphore too often; therefore,
Inode::WriteDataToBuffer() now loops in case it still couldn't write anything
instead of failing - this fixes a race condition (ie. a device is full message).
* In case the read request got filled two times (while adding the request, and
after waiting for it to become filled), ReadRequest::PutBuffer() overwrote the
output data. This fixes bug #1331.

* Simplified the notification framework: removed the updater stuff completely;
it was only there to account for some peculiarities of the node monitor which
we now solved differently.
* NotificationListener no longer includes a doubly linked list link for convenience;
it might want to listen to more than just one service.
* NotificationService cannot have an abstract destructor.
* Changed the _user_stop_watching() syscall to mirror the Be API; ie. it's no
longer possible to just remove some flags separately, just to stop listening
completely.
* Adapted the node monitor implementation to live in the NodeMonitorService class
that uses the new notification framework.
* Removed the public kernel node monitor API - it wasn't useful that way since you
couldn't do a lot with the KMessage in the kernel without using a private API.
Now you will have to use the (private) notification manager to use the node monitor
from inside the kernel. At a later point, we might introduce a public API for that,
too.

now fail with B_BAD_VALUE. It's also no longer possible to overwrite the begin
of a partition by specifying a negative position, as negative positions are no
longer translated into 0.

misrouting when the net server set up the loop device, thus stopping the
net boot process.

* Refactored RescanDiskSystems(). Pulled out a function
_RescanDiskSystems() that scans for either file or partitioning
systems. RescanDiskSystems(), which scanned for file systems only
before, is used from the constructor as well (open_module_list()
works in the early boot process since a while).
* Made InitialDeviceScan() and partition scanning safe to be called a second
time. We call it directly after the kernel has mounted the boot
volume, now, so that additional disk systems from the boot volume have a
chance to recognize previously unrecognized partitions. This is a
temporary change only; later the disk device manager shall
automatically find out when new disk systems/devices/whatever are
available.

* Minor cleanup, reordered header files to go from private/local to public/global.

* Images preloaded by the boot loader had to be modules to be of any use
to the kernel. Extended the mechanism so that any images not accepted
by the module code would later be tried to be added as drivers by the
devfs. This is a little hacky ATM, since the devfs manages the drivers
using a hash map keyed by the drivers inode ID, which those drivers
obviously don't have.
* The devfs emulates read_pages() using read(), if the device driver
doesn't implement the former (all old-style drivers), thus making it
possible to BFS, which uses the file cache which in turn requires
read_pages(), on the device. write_pages() emulation is still missing.
* Replaced the kernel_args::boot_disk structure by a KMessage, which can
more flexibly be extended and deals more gracefully with
arbitrarily-size data. The disk_identifier structure still exists,
though. It is added as message field in cases where needed (non net
boot). Moved the boot_drive_number field of the bios_ia32 platform
specific args into the message.
* Made the stage 1 PXE boot loader superfluous. Moved the relevant
initialization code into the stage 2 loader, which can now be loaded
directly via PXE.
* The PXE boot loader does now download a boot tgz archive via TFTP. It
does no longer use the RemoteDisk protocol (it could actually be
removed from the boot loader). It also parses the DHCP options in the
DHCPACK packet provided by PXE and extracts the root path to be
mounted by the kernel.
* Reorganized the boot volume search in the kernel (vfs_boot.cpp) and
added support for network boot. In this case the net stack is
initialized and the network interface the boot loader used is brought
up and configured. Since NBD and RemoteDisk are our only options for
net boot (and those aren't really configurable dynamically) ATM, the
the boot device is found automatically by the disk device manager.
Booting via PXE does work to some degree now. The most grievous problem
is that loading certain drivers or kernel modules (or related activity)
causes a reboot (likely a triple fault, though one wonders where our
double fault handler is on vacation). Namely the keyboard and mouse input
server add-ons need to be deactivated as well as the media server.
A smaller problem is the net server, which apparently tries to
(re-)configure the network interface we're using to boot, which
obviously doesn't work out that well. So, if all this stuff is disabled
Haiku does fully boot, when using the RemoteDisk protocol (not being
able to use keyboard or mouse doesn't make this a particular fascinating
experience, though ;-)). I had no luck with NBD -- it seemed to have
protocol problems with the servers I tried.

removed in several cases.
* vfs_get_vnode_cache() now always gives out a reference to the cache it
returns; if it needs to allocate a new one, the vnode owns one reference,
and the caller another.
* therefore, file_cache_create() now owns a reference to its vm_cache_ref, and
frees it in file_cache_delete().

* Minor cleanup.

* Closing a pipe now also removes it from the public namespace and marks it for
deletion, and thus, there are no more left-overs after using a pipe.
* Minor cleanup.

* read_dir() is supposed to return B_OK and and a count of 0 when
reaching the end of the directory. In case the node in question could
not be found, we were looping infinitely.
* free_dir_cookie() was not invoked.

short, if the FD table size wasn't a multiple of 8.
* vfs_resize_fd_table() didn't seem to know at all about the
close-on-exit bitmap. The pointer in the io_context would point to
free()d memory afterwards. This explains the sporadically closed
stdin/out/err descriptors in programs started from Tracker and
Deskbar.

add-ons accordingly and removed the syscall.
* Removed send_notification().
* Reimplemented notify_listener(). It used the unimplemented
send_notification(). Now it has a chance to work. Note that
notify_listener() is obsolete. I would already have removed it, if
there weren't lots of FS implementations still using it (Hint!).

vnode::covered_by fields. Together with sMountOpLock it allows write
access, either lock alone suffices for read access. Before
sMountOpLock had to be acquired for read (and write) access, which
meant that while mounting/unmounting a FS path resolution would have
to wait. In case of the UserlandFS this would even cause a deadlock
while mounting if the client tried to resolve the path of the device
to be mounted (e.g. by opening it).
* Added a clarifying comment about read access to the
fs_mount::covers_vnode/root_vnode field and removed locking in
resolve_volume_root_to_mount_point() which was not necessary for
explained reasons.

name (saves copying the name, if that has to be done anyway) and added a
wrapper version with the old interface.
* dir_vnode_to_path() was broken for file systems that didn't support
the get_vnode_name() hook. It resolved the mount point too early, so
that it was searching the mount point and not the FS root dir for the
node. It uses the get_vnode_name() function now (before resolving the
mount point).
