frinsert() shouldnt modify the runes passed and the
buffer isnt going to be modified my us during the call
so removing the temporary copies.
namecomplete() makes utf-8 copies of the rune strings so
theres no need to copy the runes.
xfidflush() now uses a simpler way to flush another xfid.
when we can send to Xfid.c channel, we know that the
xfid is completed. so all xfidflush() needs todo is to
do an alt sending to both Xfid.c and Xfid.flushc.
once the send to Xfid.c succeeds, we know the xfid is gone
and we can respond to the flush request.
theres no need to keep track of flush state anymore. so
Xfid.active and Xfid.flushing can be removed.
note, that it is ok to respond normally to a currently
flushed request.
flushing isnt optional for concurrently handled requests.
we need to ensure that Rflush is replied *after* the
origianl request.
so we assign the flushtag for *every* xfid in xfidctl(),
and filsysrespond() checks if the xfid was flushed
*after* replying and wakes up the flushing xfid.
when multiple flushes are send, they need to be replied
in order. we ensure this by having the flush xfid taking
over the flushtag (synchronized with a new fs->csyncflush
channel) so the next flush will flush the previous flush.
the diver used to skip auto negotiation when
auto-negotiation enable (bit 12 in command register)
was clear.
setting the bit now, which makes auto negotiation work.
we skip auto negotiation only when it was already enabled
and status regiser indicates completion (bit 9).
the shr mount is linked into the Mhead with m->to initially nil. only
after the the server has been attached is m->to set. just check for
it in createdir().
the image cache has the property of keeping a channel
for the executable binary arround which prevents the
mountpoint from going away.
this can easily be reproduced by running:
@{rfork n; ramfs; cp /bin/echo /tmp; /tmp/echo}
observe how ramfs stays arround until the image is
reclaimed. the echo binary is also cached but is
unreachable from any namespace.
we now restrict the caching to mounts that use the client
cache (-C flag) only. this should always be the case
for /bin. places where this isnt the case might observe
a performance regression.
closechanq() is unable to fork a new closeproc when palloc
is locked. so we spawn a closeproc early in chandevinit()
and make sure theres always one process arround to handle
the queue.
we'r getting a rectangle taller than a single line from
coladd() which causes textresize() to collapse the tag
text to zero height.
should probably fix coladd() instead.
introduce kernel inspured Block structure with
read/write pointers to pass packets arround.
the intend is to avoid copying when adding/removing
frame headers and simplifying the drivers.
the driver now calls etheriq() directly allowing it to
queue multiple packets in one pass without having
to keep state.
transmit gets a buffer passed that has room for
frame headers and trailers so no copying is needed.
blocks are refcounted avoiding another copy when
passed to only one receive queue (common case).
receive queues are now limited to 100KB avoiding
buffer bloat.
Dq* a memory leak in destroyfid has been fixed.
lots of minor cleanups.
