have been there in the first place. A GENERIC kernel shrinks almost 1k.
Add a slightly different safetybelt under nostop for tty drivers.
Add some missing FreeBSD tags
This means that we will not have to have a bpf and a non-bpf version
of our driver modules.
This does not open any security hole, because the bpf core isn't loadable
The drivers left unchanged are the "cross platform" drivers where the respective
maintainers are urged to DTRT, whatever that may be.
Add a couple of missing FreeBSD tags.
Introduce BUF_STRATEGY(struct buf *, int flag) macro, and use it throughout.
please see comment in sys/conf.h about the flag argument.
Remove strategy argument from all the diskslice/label/bad144
implementations, it should be found from the dev_t.
Remove bogus and unused strategy1 routines.
Remove open/close arguments from dssize(). Pick them up from dev_t.
Remove unused and unfinished setgeom support from diskslice/label/bad144 code.
lockmgr locks. This commit should be functionally equivalent to the old
semantics. That is, all buffer locking is done with LK_EXCLUSIVE
requests. Changes to take advantage of LK_SHARED and LK_RECURSIVE will
be done in future commits.
a sync on the block device for the filesystem. That allows it to push the
bitmap blocks before the inode blocks which greatly reduces the number of
inode rollbacks that need to be done.
#define COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER(name,data) DATA_SET(pcidevice_set,data)
.. to 2.2.x and 3.x if people think it's worth it. Driver writers can do
this if it's not defined. (The reason for this is that I'm trying to
progressively eliminate use of linker_sets where it hurts modularity and
runtime load capability, and these DATA_SET's keep getting in the way.)
files at once on a filesystem running soft updates. The root of
the problem is that soft updates limits the amount of memory that
may be allocated to dependency structures so as to avoid hogging
kernel memory. The original algorithm just waited for the disk I/O
to catch up and reduce the number of dependencies. This new code
takes a much more aggressive approach. Basically there are two
resources that routinely hit the limit. Inode dependencies during
periods with a high file creation rate and file and block removal
dependencies during periods with a high file removal rate. I have
attacked these problems from two fronts. When the inode dependency
limits are reached, I pick a random inode dependency, UFS_UPDATE
it together with all the other dirty inodes contained within its
disk block and then write that disk block. This trick usually
clears 5-50 inode dependencies in a single disk I/O. For block and
file removal dependencies, I pick a random directory page that has
at least one remove pending and VOP_FSYNC its directory. That
releases all its removal dependencies to the work queue. To further
hasten things along, I also immediately start the work queue process
rather than waiting for its next one second scheduled run.
Move the Olicom token ring driver to the officially sanctionned location of
/sys/contrib. Also fix some brokenness in the generic token ring support.
Be warned that if_dl.h has been changed and SOME programs might
like recompilation.
turns out to not be useful to unwind the dependencies and continue in
the face of a fatal error.
Also changed the log() to a printf() in softdep_error() so that it will
be output in the case of a impending panic.

MNT_WAIT when we mean boolean `true' or check for that value not being
passed. There was no problem in practice because MNT_WAIT had the
magic value of 1.
for possible buffer overflow problems. Replaced most sprintf()'s
with snprintf(); for others cases, added terminating NUL bytes where
appropriate, replaced constants like "16" with sizeof(), etc.
These changes include several bug fixes, but most changes are for
maintainability's sake. Any instance where it wasn't "immediately
obvious" that a buffer overflow could not occur was made safer.
