Jessica Hamilton a76c4f11d5 bfs: don't try to create indices when there's no indices root.
During partition initialization, the indices root is always created
unless `VOLUME_NO_INDICES` is passed in the `initialize_parameters`.

Due to stricter vnode checks, a BFS volume with `VOLUME_NO_INDICES` was
trying to create an index despite there being no index root, which seems
to have been silently swallowed in the past.

Now, when attempting to create an index, do a similar check as other
index operations to ensure an index root node exists, or fail.

Fixes #20083.

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

  • Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
  • Clean, clear, concise code.
  • Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.
