[PATCH] v9fs: signal handling fixes

2006-05-15T18:20:56+00:00

Multiple races can happen when v9fs is interrupted by a signal and Tflush
message is sent to the server.  After v9fs sends Tflush it doesn't wait
until it receives Rflush, and possibly the response of the original
message.  This behavior may confuse v9fs what fids are allocated by the
file server.

This patch fixes the races and the fid allocation.

[PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const

2006-03-28T17:16:06+00:00

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

[PATCH] 9p: fix name consistency problems

2006-03-25T16:22:54+00:00

There were a number of conflicting naming schemes used in the v9fs project.
The directory was fs/9p, but MAINTAINERS and Documentation referred to
v9fs.  The module name itself was 9p2000, and the file system type was 9P.
This patch attempts to clean that up, changing all references to 9p in
order to match the directory name.  We'll also start using 9p instead of
v9fs as our patch prefix.

There is also a minor consistency cleanup in the options changing the name
option to uname in order to more closely match the Plan 9 options.

[PATCH] v9fs: rename tids to tags to be consistent with Plan 9 documentation

2006-03-25T16:22:54+00:00

The code talks about these things called tids, which I eventually figured
out are tags.
