Remove v_maxio from struct vnode.

1999-09-29T20:05:33Z

Replace it with mnt_iosize_max in struct mount. Nits from: bde

Fix a harmless bug I introduced, simplify a bit more while here.

1999-09-20T21:14:43Z

Step one of replacing devsw->d_maxio with si_bsize_max.

1999-09-20T19:57:28Z

Rename dev->si_bsize_max to si_iosize_max and set it in spec_open if the device didn't. Set vp->v_maxio from dev->si_bsize_max in spec_open rather than in ufs_bmap.c

The bdevsw() and cdevsw() are now identical, so kill the former.

1999-08-13T10:29:38Z

Decommision miscfs/specfs/specdev.h. Most of it goes into ,

1999-08-08T18:43:05Z

a few lines into . Add a few fields to struct specinfo, paving the way for the fun part.

I got tired of seeing all the cdevsw[major(foo)] all over the place.

1999-05-08T06:40:31Z

Made a new (inline) function devsw(dev_t dev) and substituted it. Changed to the BDEV variant to this format as well: bdevsw(dev_t dev) DEVFS will eventually benefit from this change too.

Continue where Julian left off in July 1998:

1999-05-07T10:11:40Z

Virtualize bdevsw[] from cdevsw. bdevsw() is now an (inline) function. Join CDEV_MODULE and BDEV_MODULE to DEV_MODULE (please pay attention to the order of the cmaj/bmaj arguments!) Join CDEV_DRIVER_MODULE and BDEV_DRIVER_MODULE to DEV_DRIVER_MODULE (ditto!) (Next step will be to convert all bdev dev_t's to cdev dev_t's before they get to do any damage^H^H^H^H^H^Hwork in the kernel.)

The VFS/BIO subsystem contained a number of hacks in order to optimize

1999-05-02T23:57:16Z

piecemeal, middle-of-file writes for NFS. These hacks have caused no end of trouble, especially when combined with mmap(). I've removed them. Instead, NFS will issue a read-before-write to fully instantiate the struct buf containing the write. NFS does, however, optimize piecemeal appends to files. For most common file operations, you will not notice the difference. The sole remaining fragment in the VFS/BIO system is b_dirtyoff/end, which NFS uses to avoid cache coherency issues with read-merge-write style operations. NFS also optimizes the write-covers-entire-buffer case by avoiding the read-before-write. There is quite a bit of room for further optimization in these areas. The VM system marks pages fully-valid (AKA vm_page_t->valid = VM_PAGE_BITS_ALL) in several places, most noteably in vm_fault. This is not correct operation. The vm_pager_get_pages() code is now responsible for marking VM pages all-valid. A number of VM helper routines have been added to aid in zeroing-out the invalid portions of a VM page prior to the page being marked all-valid. This operation is necessary to properly support mmap(). The zeroing occurs most often when dealing with file-EOF situations. Several bugs have been fixed in the NFS subsystem, including bits handling file and directory EOF situations and buf->b_flags consistancy issues relating to clearing B_ERROR & B_INVAL, and handling B_DONE. getblk() and allocbuf() have been rewritten. B_CACHE operation is now formally defined in comments and more straightforward in implementation. B_CACHE for VMIO buffers is based on the validity of the backing store. B_CACHE for non-VMIO buffers is based simply on whether the buffer is B_INVAL or not (B_CACHE set if B_INVAL clear, and vise-versa). biodone() is now responsible for setting B_CACHE when a successful read completes. B_CACHE is also set when a bdwrite() is initiated and when a bwrite() is initiated. VFS VOP_BWRITE routines (there are only two - nfs_bwrite() and bwrite()) are now expected to set B_CACHE. This means that bowrite() and bawrite() also set B_CACHE indirectly. There are a number of places in the code which were previously using buf->b_bufsize (which is DEV_BSIZE aligned) when they should have been using buf->b_bcount. These have been fixed. getblk() now clears B_DONE on return because the rest of the system is so bad about dealing with B_DONE. Major fixes to NFS/TCP have been made. A server-side bug could cause requests to be lost by the server due to nfs_realign() overwriting other rpc's in the same TCP mbuf chain. The server's kernel must be recompiled to get the benefit of the fixes. Submitted by: Matthew Dillon
