use resrcwait() when waiting for memory to become available. randomize
the sleep time and properly restore old process status in case tsleep()
gets interrupted.
filesystems do not handle i/o errors well (cwfs will abandon the blocks),
and temporary exhaustion of kernel memory (because of too many i/o's in
parallel) causes read and write on the partition to fail.
i think it is better to wait for the memory to become available in
this case. the single allocation is at max SDmaxio bytes, which makes
it likely to become available. if we havnt even enought fo that, then
rebooting the machine would be the best option. (aux/reboot)
the fist problem is that qopen() might return nil and that kstrdup() will
sleep, so we should try to avoid holding the mntalloc lock. so we move
the kstrdup() and qopen() calls before the Mnt allocation, and properly
recover the memory if we fail later.
the second problem was that we error(Eshort) after we already created the Mnt
when returnlen < sizeof(f.version). this check has to happen *before* we
even attempt to allocate the Mnt structures. note that we only copy the
version string once everything is in the clear, so the semantics of the
user buffer not being modified in case of error is not changed.
a little cleanup in muxclose(), getting rid of mntptfree()...
pread does not guarantee that it would read all the data asked for.
But acme usage of disk assumes that. This issues as many reads as
needed to make acme work when read returns less data than it wanted.
pbs failed to load (silently loading garbage) 9BOOTFAT from start
cluster beyond FFFF because we ignored the low word from the
directory entry. now taking the high 16 bit of the directory's
start cluster into account.
Fsprotoclone() is not supposed to raise error, but return nil.
ipopen() seemed to assume otherwise as it setup error label
before calling Fsprotoclone(). fix ipopen(), make Fsprotoclone()
return nil instead of raising error.
