Subject: [9fans] Ken fs updated
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2006 22:01:27 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dc19c86465061f28dfaa377a7189f5bd@collyer.net> (raw)
As you've probably noticed if you've pulled today, the file server
kernel, manual pages and paper have been updated to match my 64-bit
file server kernel. I've removed /n/sources/contrib/geoff/fs64.tgz.
/sys/src/fs/doc has some examples, advice and a list of changes.
The emelie kernel is now called 9emeliefs. Examining port/portdat.h,
you'll see that defining OLD will compile a 32-bit kernel compatible
on disk with existing file systems. There's a little more noise at
boot time (but the file server has always been chatty), including an
announcement of the largest file size.
Diffs against the previous kernel are voluminous, but mostly due to
two things: type parameterisation and goto elimination.
I'm running the 64-bit kernel and ran the 32-bit kernel from this tree
during development. 9netics has one each (a 32-bit and a 64-bit
kernel) and Kenji Okamoto is running the 64-bit kernel with filename
components cranked up to 256 bytes maximum.
