Augustin Cavalier d8914ec8b0 kernel/fs: Add a fast path out of get_vnode.
If the vnode's reference count is already > 0 and we can increment
it from there, then we know it's already used and we don't need
to run any further checks. This saves us having to acquire the
vnode lock every single time we want to get the vnode.

(IsBusy() doesn't use an atomic get to fetch the flags value,
but as this is the first read of the value after having acquired
the vnode lock, that should not be a problem.)

Adjust free_vnode, while at it, to not set a positive reference count
during destruction, to be fully certain nothing will see this vnode
as being available for use, and add an assertion checking this.

Improves "git status" time significantly, at least in the case where
all vnodes are in the disk caches. This fast path also seems to be hit
very many times (> 100,000) on boot, and in compile jobs, too.

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!

Contributing code

If you're submitting a patch to us, please make sure you're following the patch submitting guidelines.

If you're having trouble finding something in the source tree, you can use one of our web-based source code browsers:

Contributing documentation

The main piece of documentation that still needs work are the API docs (found in the tree at docs/user). Just find an undocumented class, write documentation for it, and submit a patch.
