Clean up error handling in libstand filesystem code to be more consistent:

2004-01-21T20:12:23Z

- bzipfs and gzipfs now properly return errno values directly from their read routines rather than returning -1. - missing errno values on error returns for the seek routines on almost all filesystems were added. - fstat() now returns -1 if an error occurs rather than ignoring it. - nfs's readdir() routine now reports valid errno values if an error or EOF occurs rather than EPERM (It was just returning 0 for success and 1 for failure). - nullfs used the wrong semantics for every function besides close() and seek(). Getting it right for close() appears to be an accident at that. - read() for buffered files no longer returns 0 (EOF) if an error occurs, but returns -1 instead.

- Move the code to try to open a single chunk file and prompt for the

associated floppy if needed into a static split_openfile() function. - Use this function in splitfs_open() to open the first chunk rather than using open() directly. This allows the first chunk to be located on a different disk than the actual foo.split file.

Whitespace tweaks to make indentation consistent within this file and even

within a single function.

Kill debugging printf() slipped into my last commit.

Add splitfs vfs layer into libstand, which allows loading big kernels and

modules split across several physical medias. Following is how it works: The splitfs code, when asked to open "foo" looks for a file "foo.split" which is a text file containing a list of filenames and media names, e.g. foo.aa "Kernel floppy 1" foo.ab "Kernel floppy 2" foo.ac "Kernel and modules floppy" For each file segment, the process is: - try to open the file - prompt "Insert the disk labelled and press any key..." - try to open the file - return error if file could not be located RE team is free to use this feature in the upcoming 5.0-DP1.
