When freeing acked reesponses in the net layer we sweep the send and resend queues looking for queued responses up to the sequence number we've had acked. The code that did this used a weird pattern of returning ints and adding them which gave me pause. Clean it up to use bools and or (not short-circuiting ||) to more obviously communicate what's going on. Signed-off-by: Zach Brown <zab@versity.com>
Introduction
scoutfs is a clustered in-kernel Linux filesystem designed to support large archival systems. It features additional interfaces and metadata so that archive agents can perform their maintenance workflows without walking all the files in the namespace. Its cluster support lets deployments add nodes to satisfy archival tier bandwidth targets.
The design goal is to reach file populations in the trillions, with the archival bandwidth to match, while remaining operational and responsive.
Highlights of the design and implementation include:
- Fully consistent POSIX semantics between nodes
- Atomic transactions to maintain consistent persistent structures
- Integrated archival metadata replaces syncing to external databases
- Dynamic seperation of resources lets nodes write in parallel
- 64bit throughout; no limits on file or directory sizes or counts
- Open GPLv2 implementation
