      Don't include <osv/poll.h> in <osv/file.h> · 492efb77
      Nadav Har'El authored
      We can't include osv/poll.h from osv/file.h. It's not needed there,
      and causes a mess now that I added a use of BSD's "struct mtx" to
      poll.h (because it turns out we have code using <osv/file.h> and using
      the name "mtx" for something else).
      
      After removing the unneeded include of <osv/poll.h> from osv/file.h,
      we need to add include <sys/poll.h> to a few additional source files
      (note include of sys/poll.h, not osv/poll.h).

      Don't crash on lseek() of non-regular file · 0c8ef37c
      Nadav Har'El authored
      lseek() crashes when used on pipes, sockets, and now also fd 0, 1 or 2
      (the console), because they don't have an underlying vnode. No reason
      to assert() in this case, should just return ESPIPE (like Linux does
      for pipes, sockets and ttys).
      
      Similarly, fsync, readdir and friends, fchdir and fstatfs shouldn't
      crash if given a fd without a vnode, and rather should return the
      expected error.

      Fix concurrent console read and write bug · 907e6336
      Nadav Har'El authored
      We had a bug where a read() on the console (fd 0) would block writes to
      the console (fd 1 or 2). This was most noticable when background threads
      in the CLI tried to write output, and were blocked until the next keypress
      because the blocking read() would lock the writes out.
      
      The bug happens because we opened the console using open("/dev/console")
      and dup()'ed the resulting fd, but this results, in the current code, in
      every read and write to these file descriptors to pass through vfs_read()/
      vfs_write(), which lock a single vnode lock for all three file descriptors -
      leading to write on fd 1 blocking while read is ongoing on fd 0.
      
      This patch doesn't fix this vnode lock issue, which remains - and should
      be fixed when the devfs or vfs layers are rewritten. Instead, this patch
      adds a *second API* for opening a console which doesn't go through the
      vnode or devfs layers:
      
      A new console::open() function returns a file descriptor which implements
      the correct file operations, and is not associated with any vnode.
      
      The new implementation works well with write() while read() is ongoing.
      
      Note that poll() support was missing from the old implementation (it
      seems it can't be done with the vnode abstraction?) and is still missing
      in the new implementation, although now shouldn't be hard to add
      (need to implement the poll fileops, and to use poll_wake() in the
      line-discipline function console_poll).

      run console earlier · 4b5afd0f
      Glauber Costa authored
      
      We could benefit from the console being ready a bit earlier. The only
      dependency that I see to it are the interrupts that need to be working.  So as
      soon as we initialize the ioapic, we should be able to initialize the console.
      
      This is not the end of story: we still need an even earlier console to debug the
      driver initialization functions, and I was inclined to just leave console_init
      where it is, for now.
      
      But additionally, I felt that loader is really a more appropriate place for
      that than vfs_init... So I propose we switch. In the mean time, it might help
      debug things that happen between ioapic init and the old vfs_init (mem
      initialization, smp bring up, etc)

      trace: add unique ID for tracepoints · 0102df29
      Avi Kivity authored
      In order to optimize the fast path of tracepoints, we need to patch
      the call sites to skip calling the slow path code completely.  In turn,
      that requires that each call site be unique -- a separate function.
      
      In the current implementations, tracepoints with the same signature map
      to the same type.  It would have been great to use the name as a discriminant
      (tracepoint<"sched_queue", thread*> trace_sched_queue(...);), but C++ does
      not support string literals as template arguments.
      
      We could do
      
        const char* trace_sched_queue_name = "sched_queue";
        tracepoint<trace_sched_queue_name, thread*> trace_sched_queue(...);
      
      but that doubles the code for declaring a tracepoint.  Add a unique ID instead
      (and code to verify it is unique).

      Move unsupported fileops to fs/unsupported.c · 5062ff4f
      Nadav Har'El authored
      Previously, we re-implemented "unsupported" file operations (e.g., chmod
      for a pipe on which fchmod makes no sense) several times - there was
      an implementation only for chmod in kern_descrip.c, used in sys_socket.c,
      and af_local.cc had its own. As we add more file descriptor type (e.g.,
      create_epoll()) we'll have even more copies of these silly functions, so
      let's do it once in fs/unsupported.c - with the fs/unsupported.h header
      file.
      
      This also gives us a central place to document (and argue) whether an
      unimplemented ioctl() should return ENOTTY or EBADF (I think the former).

      Added missing extern "C" on pread64 · a3fc06f0
      Nadav Har'El authored
      Avi recently added extern "C" to pwrite64 (after the header change apparently
      removed this declaration from the header file). Also do this to pread64 -
      otherwise the "derby" benchmark (from SPECjvm2008) cannot run.

      Fix concurrent VFS access bug · 3c676909
      Nadav Har'El authored
      Two SPECjvm2008 benchmarks (compiler.compiler and compiler.sunflow)
      hang (and rarely crash) when the filesystem is accessed concurrently
      from multiple threads. The synthetic test tst-vfs.c, committed
      earlier, demonstrates the same bug with a trivial test where 10
      threads concurrently call the stat() system call on the same file.
      
      This patch fixes this bug. In the existing VFS code, a vnode's
      reference count is protected not by the node's own mutex, but rather
      by the global vnode lock. In one case, the reference count was
      modified (and worse, non-atomically) from outside the lock.
      Taking the lock a bit earlier fixed both the benchmarks and the
      synthetic test.

      vfs: add error-safe file descriptor holder · b54c3fd3
      Avi Kivity authored
      The fdesc keeps a file descriptor safe from leaks, automatically closing
      it unless the release() method is called (usually when the user is ready
      to commit state).

      vfs: add error-safe falloc_noinstall() · 816efc58
      Avi Kivity authored
      This falloc_noinstall() works like the C version, except it either returns
      a fileref (which automatically maintains reference counts) or throws an
      exception (which means error handling can be consolidated).
