HAMMER filesystem update
I am going to start committing bits and pieces of the HAMMER filesystem
over the next two months. Note that the filesystem will not be
operational until we get closer to the 2.0 release in December so
these bits and pieces will not be tied into buildworld/buildkernel until
then.
I am making good progress and I believe it will be beta quality by the
release. It took nearly the whole year to come up with a workable
design. I thought I had it at the beginning of the year but I kept
running into issues and had to redesign the thing several times
since then. I finally had to compromise a bit on the efficiency of the
backup/mirroring data stream and the filesystem relies a lot more on
heuristics and background balancing then I want it to, but other
then that the design will meet all the goals that were laid out at
the beginning of the year.
I will post the design document the implementation is being based on in
a moment.
