As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
So we already have ByteBuffer::wrap() which is like a StringView for random
data. This might not be the best abstraction actually, but this will be
immediately useful so let's add it.
Also run it across the whole tree to get everything using the One True Style.
We don't yet run this in an automated fashion as it's a little slow, but
there is a snippet to do so in makeall.sh.
This way you can spam small write()s on a file without the kernel writing
to disk every single time. Flushes are included in the FS::sync() operation
and will get triggered regularly by syncd. :^)
I also added a generator cache to FileHandle. This way, multiple
reads to a generated file (i.e in a synthfs) can transparently
handle multiple calls to read() without the contents changing
between calls.
The cache is discarded at EOF (or when the FileHandle is destroyed.)
