Firstly, now our read-ahead clustering is on a file descriptor basis and not
on a per-vnode basis. This will allow multiple processes reading the
same file to take advantage of read-ahead clustering. Secondly, there
previously was a problem with large reads still using the ramp-up
algorithm. Of course, that was bogus, and now we read the entire
"chunk" off of the disk in one operation. The read-ahead clustering
algorithm should use less CPU than the previous also (I hope :-)).
NOTE: THAT LKMS MUST BE REBUILT!!!
cd9660_rrip.c:
Added lots of bogus casts to hide type errors exposed by the prototypes.
(Different structs are assumed to have a common prefix.)
cd9660_vnops.c:
Finished staticizing.
The fix for this in Lite-2 is more complete, but these quick hacks of mine
are safer for now. I plan to integrate the additional Lite-2 stuff at some
later time. Should completely fix PR810.
it 1138 times (:-() in casts and a few more times in declarations.
This change is null for the i386.
The type has to be `typedef int vop_t(void *)' and not `typedef
int vop_t()' because `gcc -Wstrict-prototypes' warns about the
latter. Since vnode op functions are called with args of different
(struct pointer) types, neither of these function types is any use
for type checking of the arg, so it would be preferable not to use
the complete function type, especially since using the complete
type requires adding 1138 casts to avoid compiler warnings and
another 40+ casts to reverse the function pointer conversions before
calling the functions.
(original "High Sierra") CD format. I've already implemented this for
1.1.5.1 (and posted to -hackers), but didn't get any response to it.
Perhaps i'm the only one who has such an old CD lying around...
Everything is done empirically, but i had three of them around (from
different vendors), so there's a high probability that i've got it
right. :)
- Make a number of filesystems work again when they are statically compiled
(blush)
- FIFOs are no longer optional; ``options FIFO'' removed from distributed
config files.
Remove the unnecessary inclusion of disklabel.h in cd9660_vfsops.c so
that I don't have to worry about the latter when changing disklabel.h.
Supply prototypes for some functions that were implicitly declared and
fix the resulting warnings and errors (timevals were punned to timespecs).
device block which was stopping symbolic links working.
cd9660_readdir was incorrectly casting a pointer to the d_namlen field of a
struct dirent to a (u_short*) which caused the directory entries "." and ".."
to read incorrectly.
