42  * Null Layer
43  *
44  * (See mount_null(8) for more information.)
45  *
46  * The null layer duplicates a portion of the file system
47  * name space under a new name.  In this respect, it is
48  * similar to the loopback file system.  It differs from
49  * the loopback fs in two respects:  it is implemented using
50  * a stackable layers techniques, and it's "null-node"s stack above
51  * all lower-layer vnodes, not just over directory vnodes.
52  *
53  * The null layer has two purposes.  First, it serves as a demonstration
54  * of layering by proving a layer which does nothing.  (It actually
55  * does everything the loopback file system does, which is slightly
56  * more than nothing.)  Second, the null layer can serve as a prototype
57  * layer.  Since it provides all necessary layer framework,
58  * new file system layers can be created very easily be starting
59  * with a null layer.
60  *
61  * The remainder of this man page examines the null layer as a basis
62  * for constructing new layers.
63  *
64  *
65  * INSTANTIATING NEW NULL LAYERS
66  *
67  * New null layers are created with mount_null(8).
68  * Mount_null(8) takes two arguments, the pathname
69  * of the lower vfs (target-pn) and the pathname where the null
70  * layer will appear in the namespace (alias-pn).  After
71  * the null layer is put into place, the contents
72  * of target-pn subtree will be aliased under alias-pn.
73  *
74  *
75  * OPERATION OF A NULL LAYER
76  *
77  * The null layer is the minimum file system layer,
78  * simply bypassing all possible operations to the lower layer
79  * for processing there.  The majority of its activity centers
80  * on the bypass routine, though which nearly all vnode operations
81  * pass.
82  *
83  * The bypass routine accepts arbitrary vnode operations for
84  * handling by the lower layer.  It begins by examing vnode
85  * operation arguments and replacing any null-nodes by their
86  * lower-layer equivlants.  It then invokes the operation
87  * on the lower layer.  Finally, it replaces the null-nodes
88  * in the arguments and, if a vnode is return by the operation,
89  * stacks a null-node on top of the returned vnode.
90  *
91  * Although bypass handles most operations,
92  * vop_getattr, _inactive, _reclaim, and _print are not bypassed.
93  * Vop_getattr must change the fsid being returned.
94  * Vop_inactive and vop_reclaim are not bypassed so that
95  * they can handle freeing null-layer specific data.
96  * Vop_print is not bypassed to avoid excessive debugging
97  * information.
98  *
99  *
100  * INSTANTIATING VNODE STACKS
101  *
102  * Mounting associates the null layer with a lower layer,
103  * effect stacking two VFSes.  Vnode stacks are instead
104  * created on demand as files are accessed.
105  *
106  * The initial mount creates a single vnode stack for the
107  * root of the new null layer.  All other vnode stacks
108  * are created as a result of vnode operations on
109  * this or other null vnode stacks.
110  *
111  * New vnode stacks come into existance as a result of
112  * an operation which returns a vnode.
113  * The bypass routine stacks a null-node above the new
114  * vnode before returning it to the caller.
115  *
116  * For example, imagine mounting a null layer with
117  * "mount_null /usr/include /dev/layer/null".
118  * Changing directory to /dev/layer/null will assign
119  * the root null-node (which was created when the null layer was mounted).
120  * Now consider opening "sys".  A vop_lookup would be
121  * done on the root null-node.  This operation would bypass through
122  * to the lower layer which would return a vnode representing
123  * the UFS "sys".  Null_bypass then builds a null-node
124  * aliasing the UFS "sys" and returns this to the caller.
125  * Later operations on the null-node "sys" will repeat this
126  * process when constructing other vnode stacks.
127  *
128  *
129  * CREATING OTHER FILE SYSTEM LAYERS
130  *
131  * One of the easiest ways to construct new file system layers is to make
132  * a copy of the null layer, rename all files and variables, and
133  * then begin modifing the copy.  Sed can be used to easily rename
134  * all variables.
135  *
136  * The umap layer is an example of a layer descended from the
137  * null layer.
138  *
139  *
140  * INVOKING OPERATIONS ON LOWER LAYERS
141  *
142  * There are two techniques to invoke operations on a lower layer
143  * when the operation cannot be completely bypassed.  Each method
144  * is appropriate in different situations.  In both cases,
145  * it is the responsibility of the aliasing layer to make
146  * the operation arguments "correct" for the lower layer
147  * by mapping an vnode arguments to the lower layer.
148  *
149  * The first approach is to call the aliasing layer's bypass routine.
150  * This method is most suitable when you wish to invoke the operation
151  * currently being hanldled on the lower layer.  It has the advantage
152  * that the bypass routine already must do argument mapping.
153  * An example of this is null_getattrs in the null layer.
154  *
155  * A second approach is to directly invoked vnode operations on
156  * the lower layer with the VOP_OPERATIONNAME interface.
157  * The advantage of this method is that it is easy to invoke
158  * arbitrary operations on the lower layer.  The disadvantage
159  * is that vnodes arguments must be manualy mapped.

185  * In general, we map all vnodes going down and unmap them on the way back.
186  * As an exception to this, vnodes can be marked "unmapped" by setting
187  * the Nth bit in operation's vdesc_flags.
