[PATCH 7/8] libports: use a global hash table for the lookups

Previously, libports used a hash table per port bucket. This makes looking up a port difficult if one does not know the port bucket, as one has to iterate over all buckets and do a hash table lookup each. Having to iterate over the buckets makes it necessary to keep a list of all buckets, which h

[PATCH 8/8] libports: lock-less reference counting for port_info objects

* libports/ports.h (struct port_info): Use the new type. * libports/lookup-port.c: No need to lock _ports_lock anymore. * libports/bucket-iterate.c: Likewise. * libports/complete-deallocate.c: Check if someone reacquired a reference through a hash table lookup. * libports/create-internal.c: Use the

[PATCH 5/8] tmpfs: use a seperate lock to protect all_nodes

Previously, tmpfs used diskfs_node_refcnt_lock to serialize access to the all_nodes and some other related global state related to memory consumption. Use a separate lock to protect all_nodes, and atomic operations to access the state related to memory consumption. Adjust the reference counting ac

[PATCH 6/8] libdiskfs: lock-less reference counting of nodes

* libdiskfs/diskfs.h (struct node): Use refcounts_t for reference counting. (diskfs_node_refcnt_lock): Remove.

[PATCH 2/8] ext2fs: use a seperate lock to protect nodehash

Previously, ext2fs used diskfs_node_refcnt_lock to serialize access to the nodehash. Use a separate lock to protect nodehash. Adjust the reference counting accordingly. Every node in the nodehash carries a light reference. When we are asked to give up that light reference, we reacquire our lock

[PATCH] nscd: Remove unused typedef and variable.

The attached patch removed the unused ‘thread_info_t’ typedef and the ‘thread_info’ variable from nscd.c. The former conflicts with a GNU Mach typedef, and the latter conflicts with a GNU Mach function declaration: . Tested on x86
