number. Was a problem only for partitions > 2^32 * block size (4TB
for 1KB blocks).

* Added block_writer thread that continuously writes back blocks for all current
block caches.
* A block cache now maintains the number of dirty blocks if it doesn't use
transactions. That knowledge could also be used in block_cache_sync()...

* This should speed up writing a transaction considerably.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23694 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Removed the public hash_grow() function again (at least for now, it's only
private).
* Removed the newSize argument from hash_grow(); it will compute the new size
automatically.
* The block cache is now using hash_insert_grow() instead of hash_insert()
which should make hash lookups much faster with some 10 thousand blocks,
also increased the initial table size from 32 to 1024...

So now there's a central place to enable tracing in general and for
individual components.

"block_cache" to dump info about transactions.
* Improved tracing.
* Now uses the new add_debugger_command_etc().

blocks into the new transaction, but it would set that transaction on all
blocks of the old transaction, too. Also, it did not correctly update the
num_blocks/sub_num_blocks fields of the old transaction. Even worse, it did
return B_OK instead of the ID of the new transaction...
* get_writable_cached_block() did not correctly maintain the number of blocks
in the sub transaction.
* write_cached_block() did not free the original_data of a block when it wrote
it back as part of a previous transaction.
* Changed "cookie" for cache_next_block_in_transaction() to "long", so it will
be 64 bits when needed.
* Improved the API for detaching sub transactions: you can now get the blocks
of only the main (parent) transaction as well, added new
cache_block_in_main_transaction() function.
* BFS now flushes the log when there is no space left for the current
transaction.
* _WriteTransactionToLog() allocated a "vecs" array, but never freed it.
* _WriteTransactionToLog() now also supports detaching the current sub
transaction if the whole thing is getting too large (it will now also panic
if that doesn't work out).
* Removed a useless optimization: making the blocks available in the cache
isn't really needed, as all blocks in a transaction are locked into the
cache, anyway.
* Implemented Transaction::WriteBlocks().
* Minor cleanup, removed some dead code, fixed warnings in the fs_shell's
block_cache when compiled with debug output on.

(so we can't allocate more physical pages than virtual address space
anymore, but so what?).
* Used the new CACHE_LARGE_SLAB flag as a temporary work-around; else
the slab would easily create several thousands of areas, which our
area code (and kernel heap) can't really handle that well (gets
awfully slow).
* Block caches with the same size could share the same slab, but we
don't do that yet.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23567 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Made the block_cache KDL command dump a bit more useful info (number of
referenced and dirty blocks).
* Minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23540 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* improved the "block_cache" KDL command: it can now also dump blocks,
added support for the "--help" argument.

transaction ends or has been aborted.
* BFS now listens for transactions when it created an inode to see if
the transaction will be aborted without freeing the inode (in which
case it will panic for now).
* Started implementing tracing support, but it's not working yet.
* Minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23492 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
the inode's internal last modified and size copies, causing in inconsistent
data. This fixes#1643.
* The block being replayed are now dumped to the debug output.

would start with the first block in the unused blocks list, but then
continue with the blocks that share the same hash table slot, thus
freeing potentially used blocks. Could theoretically have caused
BFS to see and write incorrect meta/administrative data on certain
occasions.

* NewBlock()/FreeBlock() are now symmetrical in that the former no longer inserts
the block into the hash table.
* delete_transaction() also no longer removes the transaction from the hash table.
* cache_transaction_sync() now uses the new hash_remove_current() function.
* minor other cleanup (like line breaks).

but FreeBlock() only frees it).

parameter during construction).
* Doing so will now result in a kernel panic whenever your file system tries to
write to a block.

blocks - this is not enough, though as it would also need to ask other
volumes to free ranges.
* Increased the number of blocks to free in case of low memory.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@16663 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
modified to panic when an invalid block is requested (to find fs errors)

* cached_block::parent_data can be NULL in a sub transaction in case the
block wasn't part of the parent transaction (but not in low memory
situations). cache_abort_sub_transaction() and cache_detach_sub_transaction()
didn't account for this, though, ie. the block data could end up
corrupted.
* Renamed cached_block::original in original_data.
* Renamed cached_block::data in current_data.
* Added some comments.

cache_abort_sub_transaction now doesn't crash if parent_cache is NULL (happens in low memory situations)
Axel, please review and fix if needed
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@16105 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
as cached_block::data - which led to a crash as block_cache::FreeBlock() tried to
free both later.
Since neither cached_block::parent_data nor cached_block::original are supposed
to be != NULL in block_cache::FreeBlock(), they are no longer freed, but the system
panics if one of them is not NULL.
This should fix bug #77.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@15749 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
and thus, it could be used again which led to a crash.
Changed the free ranges list from a singly linked list to a doubly linked
list so that not all free ranges have to be searched for the one to be
freed anymore.

* the link were not initialized in cached_block, as its constructor were never called
(was using malloc/free instead of new/delete).

When memory gets low, the blocks on that list are also freed - but right now,
that only happens when a block is put back (not directly on demand, ie. via
a low memory handler).

about our block_io module not honouring the total length in read_pages().
Removed drops into the debugger when there is a block without an "original"
data buffer - that's completely normal and happens when someone asks for
a cleared block that is not yet in the cache.
