* Traverse translator hierarchies using the fsys protocol.Justus Winter2017-09-121-96/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we used the fs protocol to traverse the translator hierarchies. This, however, is conceptually flawed, because translators are bound to nodes, and a node can have zero or more links in the file system. Therefore, the previous method of returning a list of paths to the client and expecting them to be able to follow these to reach the child translators was always unreliable. Fix this by using the fsys protocol to traverse the hierarchy, and returning the control ports of all children. This is more robust, and also conceptually cleaner, because the fsys protocol is about translator linkage, hence this is the point to implement traversal. Also move the get source routine over. A per-node source really does not fit the reality of most translators, while a per-translator source makes sense in many cases. * hurd/fs.defs (file_get_children): Drop routine.

* hurd: fix semantic of file_get_childrenJustus Winter2014-08-311-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When first introduced as fsys_get_children, it made sense to return the list of children using paths relative to the root of the filesystem that was queried. Making the get_children method part of the fsys protocol was a mistake that has since been corrected in 9366d6b2. Instead of returning paths relative to the root of the translator, return paths relative to the path of the receiving node. This fixes a problem with the mtab translator. Previously, the mtab translator invoked on a target that was not the root directory of a translator would compute invalid paths, e.g.: /hurd/mtab: /any/path/servers/socket/26 No such file or directory * hurd/fs.defs (file_get_children): Update comment. * libfshelp/translator-list.c (fshelp_get_active_translators): Add argument PREFIX. Filter entries not beginning with PREFIX if non-NULL, and omit PREFIX from the returned paths. * libfshelp/fshelp.h (fshelp_get_active_translators): Update comment accordingly. Also clarify that both FILTER and PREFIX can be NULL. * libdiskfs/file-get-children.c (diskfs_S_file_get_children): Update comment, pass prefix to fshelp_get_active_translators. * libnetfs/file-get-children.c (netfs_S_file_get_children): Likewise.
