eae1306746 Per discussion at BSDCon, note that the vop_getattr locking protocol
should require a shared lock, rather than an exclusive lock, which can
improve performance.  No actual code change here, since a number of
VFS locking fixes are in the works.

1745909176 Add a comment indicating that the locking protocol should be updated
to be 'L L L' for vop_getattr().  Don't update it yet, because there
are still many offenders.

74237f55b0 Part I: Update extended attribute API and ABI:
o Modify the system call syntax for extattr_{get,set}_{fd,file}() so
  as not to use the scatter gather API (which appeared not to be used
  by any consumers, and be less portable), rather, accepts 'data'
  and 'nbytes' in the style of other simple read/write interfaces.
  This changes the API and ABI.

o Modify system call semantics so that extattr_get_{fd,file}() return
  a size_t.  When performing a read, the number of bytes read will
  be returned, unless the data pointer is NULL, in which case the
  number of bytes of data are returned.  This changes the API only.

o Modify the VOP_GETEXTATTR() vnode operation to accept a *size_t
  argument so as to return the size, if desirable.  If set to NULL,
  the size will not be returned.

o Update various filesystems (pseodofs, ufs) to DTRT.

These changes should make extended attributes more useful and more
portable.  More commits to rebuild the system call files, as well
as update userland utilities to follow.

make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the

This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.

f84e29a06c This patch removes the VOP_BWRITE() vector.
VOP_BWRITE() was a hack which made it possible for NFS client
side to use struct buf with non-bio backing.

This patch takes a more general approach and adds a bp->b_op
vector where more methods can be added.

The success of this patch depends on bp->b_op being initialized
all relevant places for some value of "relevant" which is not
easy to determine.  For now the buffers have grown a b_magic
element which will make such issues a tiny bit easier to debug.

70f3685105 o Change the API and ABI of the Extended Attribute kernel interfaces to
introduce a new argument, "namespace", rather than relying on a first-
  character namespace indicator.  This is in line with more recent
  thinking on EA interfaces on various mailing lists, including the
  posix1e, Linux acl-devel, and trustedbsd-discuss forums.  Two namespaces
  are defined by default, EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_SYSTEM and
  EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_USER, where the primary distinction lies in the
  access control model: user EAs are accessible based on the normal
  MAC and DAC file/directory protections, and system attributes are
  limited to kernel-originated or appropriately privileged userland
  requests.

o These API changes occur at several levels: the namespace argument is
  introduced in the extattr_{get,set}_file() system call interfaces,
  at the vnode operation level in the vop_{get,set}extattr() interfaces,
  and in the UFS extended attribute implementation.  Changes are also
  introduced in the VFS extattrctl() interface (system call, VFS,
  and UFS implementation), where the arguments are modified to include
  a namespace field, as well as modified to advoid direct access to
  userspace variables from below the VFS layer (in the style of recent
  changes to mount by adrian@FreeBSD.org).  This required some cleanup
  and bug fixing regarding VFS locks and the VFS interface, as a vnode
  pointer may now be optionally submitted to the VFS_EXTATTRCTL()
  call.  Updated documentation for the VFS interface will be committed
  shortly.

o In the near future, the auto-starting feature will be updated to
  search two sub-directories to the ".attribute" directory in appropriate
  file systems: "user" and "system" to locate attributes intended for
  those namespaces, as the single filename is no longer sufficient
  to indicate what namespace the attribute is intended for.  Until this
  is committed, all attributes auto-started by UFS will be placed in
  the EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_SYSTEM namespace.

o The default POSIX.1e attribute names for ACLs and Capabilities have
  been updated to no longer include the '$' in their filename.  As such,
  if you're using these features, you'll need to rename the attribute
  backing files to the same names without '$' symbols in front.

o Note that these changes will require changes in userland, which will
  be committed shortly.  These include modifications to the extended
  attribute utilities, as well as to libutil for new namespace
  string conversion routines.  Once the matching userland changes are
  committed, a buildworld is recommended to update all the necessary
  include files and verify that the kernel and userland environments
  are in sync.  Note: If you do not use extended attributes (most people
  won't), upgrading is not imperative although since the system call
  API has changed, the new userland extended attribute code will no longer
  compile with old include files.

o Couple of minor cleanups while I'm there: make more code compilation
  conditional on FFS_EXTATTR, which should recover a bit of space on
  kernels running without EA's, as well as update copyright dates.

f2a2857bb3 Add snapshots to the fast filesystem. Most of the changes support
the gating of system calls that cause modifications to the underlying
filesystem. The gating can be enabled by any filesystem that needs
to consistently suspend operations by adding the vop_stdgetwritemount
to their set of vnops. Once gating is enabled, the function
vfs_write_suspend stops all new write operations to a filesystem,
allows any filesystem modifying system calls already in progress
to complete, then sync's the filesystem to disk and returns. The
function vfs_write_resume allows the suspended write operations to
begin again. Gating is not added by default for all filesystems as
for SMP systems it adds two extra locks to such critical kernel
paths as the write system call. Thus, gating should only be added
as needed.

Details on the use and current status of snapshots in FFS can be
found in /sys/ufs/ffs/README.snapshot so for brevity and timelyness
is not included here. Unless and until you create a snapshot file,
these changes should have no effect on your system (famous last words).

7be2d30077 In the words of the submitter:
---------
Make callers of namei() responsible for releasing references or locks
instead of having the underlying filesystems do it.  This eliminates
redundancy in all terminal filesystems and makes it possible for stacked
transport layers such as umapfs or nullfs to operate correctly.

Quality testing was done with testvn, and lat_fs from the lmbench suite.

Some NFS client testing courtesy of Patrik Kudo.

vop_mknod and vop_symlink still release the returned vpp.  vop_rename
still releases 4 vnode arguments before it returns.  These remaining cases
will be corrected in the next set of patches.

987f569678 Another VFS cleanup "kilo commit"
1.  Remove VOP_UPDATE, it is (also) an UFS/{FFS,LFS,EXT2FS,MFS}
    intereface function, and now lives in the ufsmount structure.

2.  Remove VOP_SEEK, it was unused.

3.  Add mode default vops:

    VOP_ADVLOCK          vop_einval
    VOP_CLOSE            vop_null
    VOP_FSYNC            vop_null

    VOP_READLINK         vop_einval
    VOP_REALLOCBLKS      vop_eopnotsupp

    And remove identical functionality from filesystems

4.   Add vop_stdpathconf, which returns the canonical stuff.  Use
     it in the filesystems.  (XXX: It's probably wrong that specfs
     and fifofs sets this vop, shouldn't it come from the "host"
     filesystem, for instance ufs or cd9660 ?)

5.   Try to make system wide VOP functions have vop_* names.

6.   Initialize the um_* vectors in LFS.

cec0f20ce7 VFS mega cleanup commit (x/N)
1.  Add new file "sys/kern/vfs_default.c" where default actions for
    VOPs go. Implement proper defaults for ABORTOP, BWRITE, LEASE,
    POLL, REVOKE and STRATEGY.  Various stuff spread over the entire
    tree belongs here.

2.  Change VOP_BLKATOFF to a normal function in cd9660.

3.  Kill VOP_BLKATOFF, VOP_TRUNCATE, VOP_VFREE, VOP_VALLOC.  These
    are private interface functions between UFS and the underlying
    storage manager layer (FFS/LFS/MFS/EXT2FS).  The functions now
    live in struct ufsmount instead.

4.  Remove a kludge of VOP_ functions in all filesystems, that did
    nothing but obscure the simplicity and break the expandability.
    If a filesystem doesn't implement VOP_FOO, it shouldn't have an
    entry for it in its vnops table.  The system will try to DTRT
    if it is not implemented.  There are still some cruft left, but
    the bulk of it is done.

5.  Fix another VCALL in vfs_cache.c (thanks Bruce!)
