Change communication protocol to be much more resistant on network problems and to allow for much better performance. Better performance is achieved by creating two connections between ggatec and ggated one for sending the data and one for receiving it. Every connection is handled by separeted thread, so there is no more synchronous data flow (send and wait for response), now one threads sends all requests and another receives the data. Use two threads in ggatec(8): - sendtd, which takes I/O requests from the kernel and sends them to the ggated daemon on the other end; - recvtd, which waits for ggated responses and forwards them to the kernel. Use three threads in ggated(8): - recvtd, which waits for I/O requests and puts them onto incoming queue; - disktd, which takes requests from the incoming queue, does disk operations and puts finished requests onto outgoing queue; - sendtd, which takes finished requests from the outgoing queue and sends responses back to ggatec. Because there were major changes in communication protocol, there is no backward compatibility, from now on, both client and server has to run on 5.x or 6.x (or at least ggated should be from the same FreeBSD version on which ggatec is running). For Gbit networks some buffers need to be increased. I use those settings: kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=16777216 net.inet.tcp.sendspace=8388608 net.inet.tcp.recvspace=8388608 and I use '-S 4194304 -R 4194304' options for both, ggatec and ggated.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
