* Add support function vfs_get_mount_point(), so a file system can get
its own mount point (i.e. the node it covers). Re-added
fs_mount::covers_vnode for that purpose -- the root node isn't know to
the VFS before the mount() hook returns.
* Add function vfs_bind_mount_directory() which bind-mounts a directory
to another. The Vnode::covers/covered_by mechanism is used, so this
isn't true bind-mounting, but sufficient for what we need ATM and
cheaper as well. The vnodes connected thus aren't tracked yet, which
is needed for undoing the connection when unmounting.
* get_vnode_name(): Don't use dir_read() to read the directory. Since we
have already resolved vnode to the covered vnode, we don't want the
dirents to be "fixed" to refer to the covering nodes. Such a vnode
simply wouldn't be found.
* Introduce Vnode flags for covered and covering. Can be used as a quick
check when one doesn't already hold sVnodeLock.
* Rename resolve_mount_point_to_volume_root() to
resolve_vnode_to_covering_vnode().
* Adjust all code that deals with transitions between mount points and
volume root vnodes to generally support covered/covering vnodes.
* Reorganized the kernel locking related to threads and teams.
* We now discriminate correctly between process and thread signals. Signal
handlers have been moved to teams. Fixes#5679.
* Implemented real-time signal support, including signal queuing, SA_SIGINFO
support, sigqueue(), sigwaitinfo(), sigtimedwait(), waitid(), and the addition
of the real-time signal range. Closes#1935 and #2695.
* Gave SIGBUS a separate signal number. Fixes#6704.
* Implemented <time.h> clock and timer support, and fixed/completed alarm() and
[set]itimer(). Closes#5682.
* Implemented support for thread cancellation. Closes#5686.
* Moved send_signal() from <signal.h> to <OS.h>. Fixes#7554.
* Lots over smaller more or less related changes.

* The team and thread kernel structures have been renamed to Team and Thread
respectively and moved into the new BKernel namespace.
* Several (kernel add-on) sources have been converted from C to C++ since
private kernel headers are included that are no longer C compatible.
Changes after merging:
* Fixed gcc 2 build (warnings mainly in the scary firewire bus manager).

(this might also have derefenced a potentially freed vnode).

Together with vnode associated structures like file cache, VMCache, and file
system specific structures the impact on heap usage (and thus address space)
is considerable.

The O_CLOEXEC open mode wasn't actually set in the close-on-exec bitmap causing
all files opened with O_CLOEXEC (like done in the storage kit classes) to still
be inherited. This caused for example to be unable to unmount volumes when
opening apps while Tracker touched some files (i.e. copying some large files)
since these apps would inherit the file descriptor and therefore keep the
volume busy.

protected by the global vnodes lock. The contention mostly moves to other
locks, though. The total -j8 Haiku image build time is only reduced
minimally.

playing with the unused list manually. This also clears the vnode's unused
flag, which wasn't done before and would thus cause corruption of the
unused list a bit later.
* fs_unmount():
- Fixed an iteration bug I introduced previously. The iterator would be
advanced twice per iteration, leading to NULL pointer dereferencing
when the vnode count was odd and skipping the checks for every other
vnode.
- All vnodes are going to be freed, so vnode_to_be_freed() has to invoked
for every one of them. The code wasn't adjusted correctly when
introducing the hot vnodes handling.
* Adjusted/improved some comments.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@34871 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
used for it that is.
* The main cause for the heavy contention of the unused vnodes mutex was that
relatively few vnodes are actually used for a longer time. Mainly those are
the volume roots, mmap()ed files, and the files opened by programs. A good
deal of nodes -- particularly directories -- are just referenced for a very
short time, e.g. to resolve a path to a contained entry. This caused those
nodes to be added to and removed from the unused vnodes list very
frequently, thus resulting in a high contention of the mutex guarding it.
To address the problem I've introduced an approximation of a set of "hot"
vnodes, i.e. vnodes that have recently been marked unused. They are stored
in an array that by means of an r/w locker and atomic operations can most
of the time be accessed concurrently. Whenever it gets full, it is flushed
to the actual unused vnodes list.
* dec_vnode_ref_count(): No longer check the unused vnode count every time.
The called new vnode_unused() does only from time to time and returns when
the caller is expected to free some of the unused vnodes. As a side effect
this also fixes a bug I previously introduced: The unused vnode to be freed
was marked busy without being locked first.
The -j8 Haiku image test build shows that the changes reduce the contention
of the unused vnode list mutex to virtually zero without introducing any
significant contention of the new r/w lock. The VMCache lock contention also
seems to be decreased somewhat, which is probably not that surprising
considering that the page writer acquires/releases vnode references with the
cache lock held. The "pages" lock takes over even more contention, now
causing more than 100000 waits per second.
The total build time reduction is about 4.5%. Kernel time drops more than
10%.

its own header/source files.
* Changed vnode's bit fields to a single, atomically changeable int32 using
flags instead. Added respective accessor methods.
* Added a per-vnode mutex-like lock, which uses 2 bits of the structure and
32 global "buckets" which are used for waiter lists for the vnode locks.
* Reorganized the VFS locking a bit:
Renamed sVnodeMutex to sVnodeLock and made it an r/w lock. In most situations
it is now only read-locked to reduce its contention. The per-vnode locks guard
the fields of the vnode structure and the newly introduced sUnusedVnodesLock
has taken over the job to guard the unused vnodes list.
The main intent of the changes was to reduce the contention of the sVnodeMutex,
which was partially successful. In my standard -j8 Haiku image build test the
new sUnusedVnodesLock took over about a fourth of the former sVnodeMutex
contention, but the sVnodeLock and the vnode locks have virtually no contention
to speak of, now. A lot of contention migrated to the unrelated "pages" mutex
(another bottleneck). The overall build time dropped about 10 %.

in VMCache, but, if anything, that makes a -j8 build marginally slower. I
guess busy vnodes are encountered so rarely that the additional overhead for
a more intelligent algorithm isn't really worth it. Reduced the wait time,
though.

stores the value right-shifted by 12 bits, now, since those bits are not
relevant. This saves some bits and also resolves a TODO.

destruction and VMVnodeCache::AcquireUnreferencedStoreRef(). Solved by
adding a flag to VMVnodeCache and letting AcquireUnreferencedStoreRef()
fail, if set.
* Added TODO regarding replacing the snooze() waiting for busy vnodes.
* get_vnode(): Unlock sVnodeMutex while calling the put_vnode() hook on
error.

* Implemented renameat(), faccessat(), fchownat(), fchmodat(), and mkfifoat().
* Added stub for mknodat().
* The kernel backend for faccessat() does not yet differentiate between
effective and real user/group IDs, though.
* Removed B_ENABLE_INCOMPLETE_POSIX_AT_SUPPORT, as we now support everything
(more or less). This also closes ticket #4928.

returns the correct error code if the buffer was too small (should be ERANGE
instead of ENOBUF).
* Also, it is now independent of B_PATH_NAME_LENGTH, and therefore should
fulfill POSIX getcwd() requirements. This should also close ticket #3352.
* Is there any reason to allocate another buffer instead of using memmove()
at the end instead of memcpy()?
