cc810ee4d9 VFS/FS: replace protocol version with flag field
The main motivation for this change is that only Loris supports
multithreading, and Loris supports dynamic thread allocation, so the
number of supported threads can be implemented as a bit flag (i.e.,
either 1 or "at least as many as VFS has"). The ABI break obviates the
need to support file system versioning at this time, and several
other aspects are better implemented as flags as well. Other changes:

- replace peek/bpeek test upon mount with FS flag as well;
- mark libsffs as 64-bit file size capable;
- remove old (3.2.1) getdents support.

f0cc010614 libminixfs, mfs, ext2: may re-evaluate cache size
libminixfs may now be informed of changes to the block usage on the
filesystem. if the net change becomes big enough, libminixfs may
resize the cache based on the new usage.

	. update the 2 FSes to provide this information to libminixfs

44f34e53d5 VFS: Implement REQ_BPEEK.
This commit introduces a new request type called REQ_BPEEK. It
requests minor device blocks from the FS.  Analogously to REQ_PEEK,
it requests the filesystem to get the requested blocks into its
cache, without actually copying the result anywhere.

6fa5ce74ce MFS: annotate cache blocks with inode metadata
. use lmfs_* cache functions that provide the cache with inode
	  metadata whenever applicable, i.e. tell the cache code which
	  inode number and in-inode offset a particular cache block
	  corresponds to.
	. needed for mmap implementation

bd3cde4571 Move primary cache code to libminixfs.
Add primary cache management feature to libminixfs as mfs and ext2
currently do separately, remove cache code from mfs and ext2, and make
them use the libminixfs interface. This makes all fields of the buf
struct private to libminixfs and FS clients aren't supposed to access
them at all. Only the opaque 'void *data' field (the FS block contents,
used to be called bp) is to be accessed by the FS client.

The main purpose is to implement the interface to the 2ndary vm cache
just once, get rid of some code duplication, and add a little
abstraction to reduce the code inertia of the whole caching business.

Some minor sanity checking and prohibition done by mfs in this code
as removed from the generic primary cache code as a result:
        - checking all inodes are not in use when allocating/resizing
          the cache
        - checking readonly filesystems aren't written to
        - checking the superblock isn't written to on mounted filesystems

The minixfslib code relies on fs_blockstats() in the client filesystem to
return some FS usage information.

59ff5cbd87 mfs: clean flag
. also implement now-possible fsck -p option
    	. allows unconditional fsck -p invocation at startup,
    	  only checking each filesystem if not marked clean
    	. mounting unclean is allowed but is forced readonly
    	. updating the superblock while mounted is now not
    	  allowed by mfs - must be done (e.g. by fsck.mfs)
    	  on an unmounted fs
	. clean flag is unset by mfs on mounting, and set by
	  mfs on clean unmounting (if clean flag was set at
	  mount time)

af01bda509 libbdev: initial version
The "bdev" library provides basic primitives for file systems to talk
to block device drivers, hiding the details of the underlying protocol
and interaction model.

This version of libbdev is rather basic. It is planned to support the
following features in the long run:

 - asynchronous requests and replies;
 - recovery support for underlying block drivers;
 - retrying of failed I/O requests.

The commit also changes our block-based file systems (mfs, ext2, isofs)
to make use of libbdev.

f984dbba70 increase system-wide filename limit to 255

	  mfs-specific, on-disk format structs and consts are

	. removes de and readfs utils

6bbcab3ec4 Clean up MFS a bit:
- Remove unused includes.
 - Add include guards to headers.
 - Use unsigned variables in case they're never going to hold a negative
   value. This causes GCC's complaints to disappear and should make flexelint
   a lot happier, too.
 - Make functions private when they're used only within a module.
 - Remove unused variables.
 - Add casts where appropriate.

f78d8e74fd secondary cache feature in vm.
A new call to vm lets processes yield a part of their memory to vm,
together with an id, getting newly allocated memory in return. vm is
allowed to forget about it if it runs out of memory. processes can ask
for it back using the same id. (These two operations are normally
combined in a single call.)

It can be used as a as-big-as-memory-will-allow block cache for
filesystems, which is how mfs now uses it.

- VFS: update file size after truncating with fcntl(F_FREESP)
- VFS: move pos/len checks for F_FREESP with l_len!=0 from FS to VFS
- MFS: do not zero data block for small files when fully truncating
- MFS: do not write out freed indirect blocks after freeing space
- MFS: make truncate work correctly with differing zone/block sizes
- tests: add new test50 for truncate call family

958b25be50 - Introduce support for sticky bit.
- Revise VFS-FS protocol and update VFS/MFS/ISOFS accordingly.
- Clean up MFS by removing old, dead code (backwards compatibility is broken by
  the new VFS-FS protocol, anyway) and rewrite other parts. Also, make sure all
  functions have proper banners and prototypes.
- VFS should always provide a (syntactically) valid path to the FS; no need for
  the FS to do sanity checks when leaving/entering mount points.
- Fix several bugs in MFS:
  - Several path lookup bugs in MFS.
  - A link can be too big for the path buffer.
  - A mountpoint can become inaccessible when the creation of a new inode
    fails, because the inode already exists and is a mountpoint.
- Introduce support for supplemental groups.
- Add test 46 to test supplemental group functionality (and removed obsolete
  suppl. tests from test 2).
- Clean up VFS (not everything is done yet).
- ISOFS now opens device read-only. This makes the -r flag in the mount command
  unnecessary (but will still report to be mounted read-write).
- Introduce PipeFS. PipeFS is a new FS that handles all anonymous and
  named pipes. However, named pipes still reside on the (M)FS, as they are part
  of the file system on disk. To make this work VFS now has a concept of
  'mapped' inodes, which causes read, write, truncate and stat requests to be
  redirected to the mapped FS, and all other requests to the original FS.

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).

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)

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

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]
