David van Moolenbroek 0ac1aaccca Limited support for nested FS->VFS requests during VFS->FS call.
- Changed VFS-FS protocol to only store OK or negative error code in
  m_type field of reply messages.
- Changed VFS to treat nonzero positive replies from FS as requests.
- Added backwards compatibility to VFS and MFS.
No protection of global data structures is provided in VFS, so many
VFS calls cannot be made safely by FS servers during many FS calls.
Use with caution (or, preferably, not at all).

Ben Gras b7e23b70e8 - delete unused .h files
- slight code cleanup
 - neater exit procedure: exit when unmount
   message received and kill signal (from RS 'down' or
   reboot/shutdown) received (speed up unmount, but don't
   confuse VFS by exiting before/during unmount msg)

Ben Gras c078ec0331 Basic VM and other minor improvements.
Not complete, probably not fully debugged or optimized.

Philip Homburg 2ca2b86a3a Added new interface to VFS. 2007-08-07 12:38:35 +00:00
Ben Gras 2194bc0310 vfs/mount/rs/service changes:
. changed umount() and mount() to call 'service', so that it can include
   a custom label, so that umount() works again (RS slot gets freed now).
   merged umount() and mount() into one file to encode keep this label
   knowledge in one file.
 . removed obsolete RS_PID field and RS_RESCUE rescue command
 . added label to RS_START struct
 . vfs no longer does kill of fs process on unmount (which was failing
   due to RS_PID request not working)
 . don't assume that if error wasn't one of three errors, that no error
   occured in vfs/request.c
mfs changes:
 . added checks to copy statements to truncate copies at buffer sizes
   (left in debug code for now)
 . added checks for null-terminatedness, if less than NAME_MAX was copied
 . added checks for copy function success
is changes: 
 . dump rs label
drivers.conf changes:
 . added acl for mfs so that mfs can be started with 'service start',
   so that a custom label can be provided

Ben Gras 722f1b2b9f . added checks for buffer sizes in sys_datacopy() functions in mfs,
print debug message if copy is truncated
. increased buffer in lookup() to be PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX
. sanity check in fetch_name() in vfs to see if name fits, and
  is null-terminated
. first check i < NAME_MAX, then string[i] in search_dir, as we're
  not supposed to look at string[NAME_MAX]
