* Added vfs_unmount(), which allows unmounting by dev_t (used by the DDM).

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.

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.

* 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).

function, and added a vfs_disconnect_vnode() for other kernel components.
* 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).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@16610 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* BEntry::Remove() now uses _kern_remove_dir() for directories.
* Added fd parameter to _kern_remove_dir().
* Fixed LibBeAdapter's _kern_unlink() to only work on files, and
added _kern_remove_dir() for directories.

and into its own file vfs_boot.cpp.
Added basic support for booting from CD - it doesn't give CDs a higher priority,
so you could end up booting from HD when you didn't explicetly select "CD-ROM"
in the boot loader. Eventually, it should only boot from HD in this case, if
booting from CD failed (because of a missing boot partition or whatever).
fs_mount(), _kern_mount(), and _user_mount() will now return the dev_t of the
mounted device, and not just B_OK. Maybe we should have fs_unmount() work on
a dev_t instead of a path as well...

per file descriptor (a descriptor can be shared among several slots). There is now a
second table in the io_context structure that contains that information in a bitmap.
There are now two new (private) functions to control the close-on-exec flag, fd_close_on_exec(),
and fd_set_close_on_exec().
F_DUPFD, dup(), and dup2() are supposed to clear the close-on-exec flag on the duplicated
slot - this fixes bug #57 (no output after a redirect of a shell builtin).

working directory (instead of the full path).
Cleanup of some remaining "int" status variables (where it should have
been a "status_t").
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@13924 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
prevents the system to allocate caches for files that don't use or have
a file cache (ie. only those can be mmap()ed!).
Therefore, cache_prefetch() no longer crashes when trying to prefetch
files without a file cache.
read_into_cache() no longer does anything if the requested size is 0.
Fixed a bug in cache_prefetch_vnode(): if the cache couldn't be retrieved,
it put the vnode, but didn't own it (the caller does).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@13904 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Removed vfs_vnode_release_ref(), as vfs_put_vnode() already does the same thing.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@13867 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Also changed readlink() to be POSIX compliant with those changes.
"ls -l" does now resolve links properly again (the new coreutils version outlined the problems).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@12263 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
team boundaries; if you didn't actually call close() from within the
application, the close-hook of the file system was never called.
Also, you could close files of other teams (ie. invoke close on a
shared file descriptor).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@11892 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Removed *_create() and *_create_entry_ref() syscalls - they are now handled by
*_open() and *_open_entry_ref() calls which get another parameter for the permissions.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@11204 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added resolve_mount_point_to_volume_root() version for external use
(by the node monitor).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@11159 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Added new vfs_get_vnode() that actually grabs such a ref.
vfs_get_vnode_cache() now fills a vm_cache_ref instead of a void pointer.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@10430 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added resolve_mount_point_to_volume_root() which does what
resolve_volume_root_to_mount_point() did. IOW the latter one didn't
do what it advertised.
* Fixed dir_vnode_to_path(). Basically broken due to the broken
resolve_volume_root_to_mount_point(), but also compared potentially
unrelated vnode IDs (belonging to different volumes).
* Fixed get_dir_path_and_leaf(). It didn't deal correctly with paths
ending in '/' (including the root dir).
* fs_mount() does now accept a NULL fsName, getting the FS name from
the DDM in this case.
* fs_mount() now also supports mounting file images; it lets the DDM
create a file device for them.

git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9533 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Also added a prototype for the fs_get_file_map() fs call.
