// File system implementation.  Four layers:
//   + Blocks: allocator for raw disk blocks.
//   + Files: inode allocator, reading, writing, metadata.
//   + Directories: inode with special contents (list of other inodes!)
//   + Names: paths like /usr/rtm/xv6/fs.c for convenient naming.
//
// Disk layout is: superblock, inodes, block in-use bitmap, data blocks.
//
// This file contains the low-level file system manipulation 
// routines.  The (higher-level) system call implementations
// are in sysfile.c.

// Inodes.
//
// An inode is a single, unnamed file in the file system.
// The inode disk structure holds metadata (the type, device numbers,
// and data size) along with a list of blocks where the associated
// data can be found.
//
// The inodes are laid out sequentially on disk immediately after
// the superblock.  The kernel keeps a cache of the in-use
// on-disk structures to provide a place for synchronizing access
// to inodes shared between multiple processes.
// 
// ip->ref counts the number of pointer references to this cached
// inode; references are typically kept in struct file and in proc->cwd.
// When ip->ref falls to zero, the inode is no longer cached.
// It is an error to use an inode without holding a reference to it.
//
// Processes are only allowed to read and write inode
// metadata and contents when holding the inode's lock,
// represented by the I_BUSY flag in the in-memory copy.
// Because inode locks are held during disk accesses, 
// they are implemented using a flag rather than with
// spin locks.  Callers are responsible for locking
// inodes before passing them to routines in this file; leaving
// this responsibility with the caller makes it possible for them
// to create arbitrarily-sized atomic operations.
//
// To give maximum control over locking to the callers, 
// the routines in this file that return inode pointers 
// return pointers to *unlocked* inodes.  It is the callers'
// responsibility to lock them before using them.  A non-zero
// ip->ref keeps these unlocked inodes in the cache.
