# 191990 11-May-2009 attilio

Remove the thread argument from the FSD (File-System Dependent) parts of
the VFS. Now all the VFS_* functions and relating parts don't want the
context as long as it always refers to curthread.

In some points, in particular when dealing with VOPs and functions living
in the same namespace (eg. vflush) which still need to be converted,
pass curthread explicitly in order to retain the old behaviour.
Such loose ends will be fixed ASAP.

While here fix a bug: now, UFS_EXTATTR can be compiled alone without the
UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART option.

VFS KPI is heavilly changed by this commit so thirdy parts modules needs
to be recompiled. Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to signal such
situation.

# 179288 24-May-2008 lulf

- Add locking to all filesystem operations in fdescfs and flag it as MPSAFE.
- Use proper synhronization primitives to protect the internal fdesc node cache
used in fdescfs.
- Properly initialize and uninitalize hash.
- Remove unused functions.

Since fdescfs might recurse on itself, adding proper locking to it needed some
tricky workarounds in some parts to make it work. For instance, a descriptor in
fdescfs could refer to an open descriptor to itself, thus forcing the thread to
recurse on vnode locks. Because of this, other race conditions also had to be
fixed.

vn_lock() is currently only used with the 'curthread' passed as argument.
Remove this argument and pass curthread directly to underlying
VOP_LOCK1() VFS method. This modify makes the code cleaner and in
particular remove an annoying dependence helping next lockmgr() cleanup.
KPI results, obviously, changed.

Manpage and FreeBSD_version will be updated through further commits.

a similar cleanup about VFS methods, in particular vop_lock1 and
vop_unlock.

# 168355 04-Apr-2007 rwatson

Replace custom file descriptor array sleep lock constructed using a mutex
and flags with an sxlock. This leads to a significant and measurable
performance improvement as a result of access to shared locking for
frequent lookup operations, reduced general overhead, and reduced overhead
in the event of contention. All of these are imported for threaded
applications where simultaneous access to a shared file descriptor array
occurs frequently. Kris has reported 2x-4x transaction rate improvements
on 8-core MySQL benchmarks; smaller improvements can be expected for many
workloads as a result of reduced overhead.

- Generally eliminate the distinction between "fast" and regular
acquisisition of the filedesc lock; the plan is that they will now all
be fast. Change all locking instances to either shared or exclusive
locks.

- Correct a bug (pointed out by kib) in fdfree() where previously msleep()
was called without the mutex held; sx_sleep() is now always called with
the sxlock held exclusively.

- Universally hold the struct file lock over changes to struct file,
rather than the filedesc lock or no lock. Always update the f_ops
field last. A further memory barrier is required here in the future
(discussed with jhb).

- Improve locking and reference management in linux_at(), which fails to
properly acquire vnode references before using vnode pointers. Annotate
improper use of vn_fullpath(), which will be replaced at a future date.

In fcntl(), we conservatively acquire an exclusive lock, even though in
some cases a shared lock may be sufficient, which should be revisited.
The dropping of the filedesc lock in fdgrowtable() is no longer required
as the sxlock can be held over the sleep operation; we should consider
removing that (pointed out by attilio).

# 158611 15-May-2006 kbyanc

Restore the ability to mount procfs and fdescfs filesystems via the
mount(2) system call:

* Add cmount hook to fdescfs and pseudofs (and, by extension, procfs and
linprocfs). This (mostly) restores the ability to mount these
filesystems using the old mount(2) system call (see below for the
rest of the fix).

* Remove not-NULL check for the data argument from the mount(2) entry
point. Per the mount(2) man page, it is up to the individual
filesystem being mounted to verify data. Or, in the case of procfs,
etc. the filesystem is free to ignore the data parameter if it does
not use it. Enforcing data to be not-NULL in the mount(2) system call
entry point prevented passing NULL to filesystems which ignored the
data pointer value. Apparently, passing NULL was common practice
in such cases, as even our own mount_std(8) used to do it in the
pre-nmount(2) world.

All userland programs in the tree were converted to nmount(2) long ago,
but I've found at least one external program which broke due to this
(presumably unintentional) mount(2) API change. One could argue that
external programs should also be converted to nmount(2), but then there
isn't much point in keeping the mount(2) interface for backward
compatibility if it isn't backward compatible.


# 151897 31-Oct-2005 rwatson

Normalize a significant number of kernel malloc type names:

- Prefer '_' to ' ', as it results in more easily parsed results in
memory monitoring tools such as vmstat.

- Remove punctuation that is incompatible with using memory type names
as file names, such as '/' characters.

- Disambiguate some collisions by adding subsystem prefixes to some
memory types.

- Generally prefer lower case to upper case.

- If the same type is defined in multiple architecture directories,
attempt to use the same name in additional cases.

Not all instances were caught in this change, so more work is required to
finish this conversion. Similar changes are required for UMA zone names.

# 138412 05-Dec-2004 phk

VFS_STATFS(mp, ...) is mostly called with &mp->mnt_stat, but a few cases
doesn't. Most of the implementations have grown weeds for this so they

# 125454 04-Feb-2004 jhb

Locking for the per-process resource limits structure.
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
(it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,
ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.

- Replace v_flag with v_iflag and v_vflag
- v_vflag is protected by the vnode lock and is used when synchronization
with VOP calls is needed.
- v_iflag is protected by interlock and is used for dealing with vnode
management issues. These flags include X/O LOCK, FREE, DOOMED, etc.
- All accesses to v_iflag and v_vflag have either been locked or marked with
mp_fixme's.
- Many ASSERT_VOP_LOCKED calls have been added where the locking was not
clear.
- Many functions in vfs_subr.c were restructured to provide for stronger
locking.

SMP Lock struct file, filedesc and the global file list.

Seigo Tanimura (tanimura) posted the initial delta.

I've polished it quite a bit reducing the need for locking and
adapting it for KSE.

Locks:

1 mutex in each filedesc
protects all the fields.
protects "struct file" initialization, while a struct file
is being changed from &badfileops -> &pipeops or something
the filedesc should be locked.

1 mutex in each struct file
protects the refcount fields.
doesn't protect anything else.
the flags used for garbage collection have been moved to
f_gcflag which was the FILLER short, this doesn't need
locking because the garbage collection is a single threaded
container.
could likely be made to use a pool mutex.

1 sx lock for the global filelist.

struct file * fhold(struct file *fp);
/* increments reference count on a file */

struct file * fhold_locked(struct file *fp);
/* like fhold but expects file to locked */

struct file * ffind_hold(struct thread *, int fd);
/* finds the struct file in thread, adds one reference and
returns it unlocked */

struct file * ffind_lock(struct thread *, int fd);
/* ffind_hold, but returns file locked */

I still have to smp-safe the fget cruft, I'll get to that asap.

# 76688 16-May-2001 iedowse

Change the second argument of vflush() to an integer that specifies
the number of references on the filesystem root vnode to be both
expected and released. Many filesystems hold an extra reference on
the filesystem root vnode, which must be accounted for when
determining if the filesystem is busy and then released if it isn't
busy. The old `skipvp' approach required individual filesystem
xxx_unmount functions to re-implement much of vflush()'s logic to
deal with the root vnode.

All 9 filesystems that hold an extra reference on the root vnode
got the logic wrong in the case of forced unmounts, so `umount -f'
would always fail if there were any extra root vnode references.
Fix this issue centrally in vflush(), now that we can.

This commit also fixes a vnode reference leak in devfs, which could
result in idle devfs filesystems that refuse to unmount.

An initial tidyup of the mount() syscall and VFS mount code.

This code replaces the earlier work done by jlemon in an attempt to
make linux_mount() work.

* the guts of the mount work has been moved into vfs_mount().

* move `type', `path' and `flags' from being userland variables into being
kernel variables in vfs_mount(). `data' remains a pointer into
userspace.

* Attempt to verify the `type' and `path' strings passed to vfs_mount()
aren't too long.

* rework mount() and linux_mount() to take the userland parameters
(besides data, as mentioned) and pass kernel variables to vfs_mount().
(linux_mount() already did this, I've just tidied it up a little more.)

* remove the copyin*() stuff for `path'. `data' still requires copyin*()
since its a pointer into userland.

* set `mount->mnt_statf_mntonname' in vfs_mount() rather than in each
filesystem. This variable is generally initialised with `path', and
each filesystem can override it if they want to.

* NOTE: f_mntonname is intiailised with "/" in the case of a root mount.

# 33964 01-Mar-1998 msmith

The intent is to get rid of WILLRELE in vnode_if.src by making
a complement to all ops that return a vpp, VFS_VRELE. This is
initially only for file systems that implement the following ops
that do a WILLRELE:

vop_create, vop_whiteout, vop_mknod, vop_remove, vop_link,
vop_rename, vop_mkdir, vop_rmdir, vop_symlink

This is initial DNA that doesn't do anything yet. VFS_VRELE is
implemented but not called.

A default vfs_vrele was created for fs implementations that use the
standard vnode management routines.

VFS_VRELE implementations were made for the following file systems:

Standard (vfs_vrele)
ffs mfs nfs msdosfs devfs ext2fs

Custom
union umapfs

Just EOPNOTSUPP
fdesc procfs kernfs portal cd9660

These implementations may change as VOP changes are implemented.

In the next phase, in the vop implementations calls to vrele and the vrele
part of vput will be moved to the top layer vfs_vnops and made visible
to all layers. vput will be replaced by unlock in these cases. Unlocking
will still be done in the per fs layer but the refcount decrement will be
triggered at the top because it doesn't hurt to hold a vnode reference a
little longer. This will have minimal impact on the structure of the
existing code.

This will only be done for vnode arguments that are released by the various
fs vop implementations.

Wider use of VFS_VRELE will likely require restructuring of the code.
