Augustin Cavalier 0750f5b62d ramfs: Properly acquire/release references to the vnode in VMCache.
This is what AcquireStoreRef/ReleaseStoreRef are for. We don't use
VMVnodeCache here because that is a non-"temporary" cache that
writes its pages back to disk, while we need a store for the pages
that won't discard unmodified ones when memory is low.

Add a close() to the mmap_cut_tests, which triggers the case where
this is important (a file is unlinked, mmap'ed, and then the lone
FD referring to it is closed, triggering the file's deletion unless
the mmap also acquired a reference to the vnode.)

Fixes KDLs with Firefox test builds.
(cherry picked from commit c0a12a6b7d697382511ff36e7815aad6a379b3a7)

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

  • Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
  • Clean, clear, concise code.
  • Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
