The work areas (RTEMS work space and C program heap) will be initialized
now in a separate step and are no longer part of
rtems_initialize_data_structures(). Initialization is performed with
tables of Heap_Area entries. This allows usage of scattered memory
areas present on various small scale micro-controllers.
The sbrk() support API changes also. The bsp_sbrk_init() must now deal
with a minimum size for the first memory chunk to take the configured
work space size into account.
Rename rtems_filesystem_location_exists_in_same_fs_instance_as() into
rtems_filesystem_location_exists_in_same_instance_as() for consistency
with other file system instance related functions.
Rename rtems_filesystem_location_is_root() into
rtems_filesystem_location_is_instance_root() to distinguish this from
the file system root directory of the current task environment.
The header file <rtems/malloc.h> provides now also the malloc_walk()
prototype.
The malloc_walk() prototype reflects now the _Protected_heap_Walk() API.
The return status helps to print only in case of an error.
The pathconf_limits_and_options field of
rtems_filesystem_mount_table_entry_t is now a const pointer to reduce
the read-write memory demands of file system instances.
The scope of the file system operations is the file system instance.
The scope of the file system node handlers is the file location. The
benefit of moving the operations to the mount table entry is a size
reduction of the file location (rtems_filesystem_location_info_t). The
code size is slightly increased due to additional load instructions.
Restructure rtems_filesystem_mount_table_entry_t to improve cache
efficiency.
It is now the responsibility of the read() and write() handler to update
the offset field of the IO descriptor (rtems_libio_t). This change
makes it possible to protect the IO descriptor from concurrent access by
per file locks.
These modifications were required by hand after running the script.
In some cases, the file names did not match patterns. In others,
the format of the file did not match any common patterns.
Script does what is expected and tries to do it as
smartly as possible.
+ remove occurrences of two blank comment lines
next to each other after Id string line removed.
+ remove entire comment blocks which only exited to
contain CVS Ids
+ If the processing left a blank line at the top of
a file, it was removed.
According to POSIX the lseek() function shall not, by itself, extend the
size of a file.
Remove the size field of rtems_libio_t. A file has only one size but
may have multiple open file descriptors. Thus a file size field in the
file descriptor may lead to inconsistencies.
New default handlers rtems_filesystem_default_lseek_file() and
rtems_filesystem_default_lseek_directory().
The per file descriptor semaphore (field of rtems_libio_t) is unused in
RTEMS. There is a considerable memory overhead due to that. A
semaphore needs roughly 124 bytes which is huge compared to the
approximately 72 bytes for the file descriptor structure itself. Device
drivers can create their own synchronization primitives in the open
handler on demand.
Many files had an extra blank line in the license text
found in the file header. This patch removes that line.

when it was turned on incorrectly.
o Removed RTEMS_LIBIO_PERMS_SEARCH.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_PERMS_READ in RTEMS_FS_PERMS_READ.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_PERMS_WRITE in RTEMS_FS_PERMS_WRITE.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_PERMS_EXEC in RTEMS_FS_PERMS_EXEC.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_FOLLOW_HARD_LINK in RTEMS_FS_FOLLOW_HARD_LINK.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_FOLLOW_SYM_LINK in RTEMS_FS_FOLLOW_SYM_LINK.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_MAKE in RTEMS_FS_MAKE.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_EXCLUSIVE in RTEMS_FS_EXCLUSIVE.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_ACCEPT_RESIDUAL_DELIMITERS in
RTEMS_FS_ACCEPT_RESIDUAL_DELIMITERS.
o Renamed RTEMS_LIBIO_REJECT_TERMINAL_DOT in
RTEMS_FS_REJECT_TERMINAL_DOT.
New defaults rtems_filesystem_default_fsync_or_fdatasync() and
rtems_filesystem_default_fsync_or_fdatasync_success() for fsync_h and
fdatasync_h. The rtems_filesystem_default_fsync_or_fdatasync() sets now
errno to EINVAL according to POSIX.
Move the RTEMS_FILESYSTEM_INVALID_NODE_TYPE to the end. This makes it
possible to use this enum easily as an array index. Most comparisons
are made against RTEMS_FILESYSTEM_DIRECTORY. A value of zero allows on
some architectures simpler branch operations.
o A new data structure rtems_filesystem_global_location_t was
introduced to be used for
o the mount point location in the mount table entry,
o the file system root location in the mount table entry,
o the root directory location in the user environment, and
o the current directory location in the user environment.
During the path evaluation global start locations are obtained to
ensure that the current file system instance will be not unmounted in
the meantime.
o The user environment uses now reference counting and is protected
from concurrent access.
o The path evaluation process was completely rewritten and simplified.
The IMFS, RFS, NFS, and DOSFS use now a generic path evaluation
method. Recursive calls in the path evaluation have been replaced
with iteration to avoid stack overflows. Only the evaluation of
symbolic links is recursive. No dynamic memory allocations and
intermediate buffers are used in the high level path evaluation. No
global locks are held during the file system instance specific path
evaluation process.
o Recursive symbolic link evaluation is now limited by
RTEMS_FILESYSTEM_SYMLOOP_MAX. Applications can retrieve this value
via sysconf().
o The device file system (devFS) uses now no global variables and
allocation from the workspace. Node names are allocated from the
heap.
o The upper layer lseek() performs now some parameter checks.
o The upper layer ftruncate() performs now some parameter checks.
o unmask() is now restricted to the RWX flags and protected from
concurrent access.
o The fchmod_h and rmnod_h file system node handlers are now a file
system operation.
o The unlink_h operation has been removed. All nodes are now destroyed
with the rmnod_h operation.
o New lock_h, unlock_h, clonenod_h, and are_nodes_equal_h file system
operations.
o The path evaluation and file system operations are now protected by
per file system instance lock and unlock operations.
o Fix and test file descriptor duplicate in fcntl().
o New test fstests/fsnofs01.
Various tests must check program paths that result due to failed memory
allocations from the heap. To avoid tinkering with internal heap
structures throughout the test code these functions should be used.
