2006-03-14	[XFS] 929045 567344 This mod introduces multi-level in-core file extent	Mandy Kirkconnell	1	-8/+0
	functionality, building upon the new layout introduced in mod xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207390a. The new multi-level extent allocations are only required for heavily fragmented files, so the old-style linear extent list is used on files until the extents reach a pre-determined size of 4k. 4k buffers are used because this is the system page size on Linux i386 and systems with larger page sizes don't seem to gain much, if anything, by using their native page size as the extent buffer size. Also, using 4k extent buffers everywhere provides a consistent interface for CXFS across different platforms. The 4k extent buffers are managed by an indirection array (xfs_ext_irec_t) which is basically just a pointer array with a bit of extra information to keep track of the number of extents in each buffer as well as the extent offset of each buffer. Major changes include: - Add multi-level in-core file extent functionality to the xfs_iext_ subroutines introduced in mod: xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207390a - Introduce 13 new subroutines which add functionality for multi-level in-core file extents: xfs_iext_add_indirect_multi() xfs_iext_remove_indirect() xfs_iext_realloc_indirect() xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct() xfs_iext_bno_to_irec() xfs_iext_idx_to_irec() xfs_iext_irec_init() xfs_iext_irec_new() xfs_iext_irec_remove() xfs_iext_irec_compact() xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() xfs_iext_irec_update_extoffs() SGI-PV: 928864 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:207393a Signed-off-by: Mandy Kirkconnell <alkirkco@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Nathan Scott <nathans@sgi.com>

	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
