Since this can be done in the tree, then so be it. Thanks, Peter. This is good stuff, and well worth the odd trashed filesystem that may be required to iron out the bugs. David Cross must be ecstatic. :-) Ciao, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
HEADS UP: NFS megacommit has landed
Please take care. I've committed my functional work-in-progress that splits the nfs code into seperate client and server components. There was only a very very small amount of sharing between them. This is partly to enable a cleaner locking attempt. There were some really nasty domain crossovers where the client code called significant server functions and vice versa. This isn't finished, but works reasonably well. I decided to commit it because it was a good place to checkpoint, and because a certain developer made it quite clear that he thought of out-of-tree development work. Since this can be done in the tree, then so be it. The bulk of the changes are fairly mechanical.. But the macro unwinding has been somewhat problematic and error prone due to similarly named variables used in the similar ways. On the plus side, the NFS code is now *significantly* smaller due to macro unwinding. There were some really *nasty* macros there that called other macros that nested two or three deep. textdata bss dec hex filename 557834640 132 60555ec8b obj/nfsclient.kld 6038723041348 64039fa27 obj/nfsserver.kld 19228870084612 203908 31c84 obj/nfs.kld -rw-r--r-- 1 peter wheel 91334 Sep 18 16:53 obj/nfsclient.kld -rw-r--r-- 1 peter wheel 85659 Sep 18 16:54 obj/nfsserver.kld -rw-r--r-- 1 peter wheel 255454 Sep 18 16:52 obj/nfs.kld I apologize in advance if I've broken something, and please be careful!
