<> = Retrieving patches from svn = = Overview = == Client changes == Protocol Abstraction Layer:: Unifies !CacheStoreProc / !CacheFetchProc routines for UFS- and !MemCache, respectively. Encapsules server interactions into discrete functions that are specific to the cache type used. Additional protocols can be added relatively easy then, by defining additional sets of Store/Fetch mini-operations. = Protocol Abstraction layer = == rxosd-01 == The `CacheStoreProc`s and `CacheStoreProc`s for the respective cache types are counterintuitively distributed in the source tree. We propose a new `afs_fetchstore.c` for these. == rxosd-02 == The caches should use identical Fetch/Store routines. This patch concerns only Store. The code is quite insane, as this patch is only a bridge to rxosd-03. == rxosd-03 == The actual protocol abstraction. !StoreOps are yet another differentiation layer underneath cache type abstraction. Interaction with `rxosd` servers will manifest itself in form of a set of alternative !StoreOps. (!) Note that the `((struct rxfs_storeVariables *)rock)->call = acall;` line is actually a hack. The final `rxfs_storeInit()` will work rather differently than how it does now, so this is my way of bridging the gap. == rxosd-04 == Make code more readable, and replace some return codes. == rxosd-05 and rxosd-06 == These are the counterparts of rxosd-02 and rxosd-03 wrt. the `CacheFetchProc`s.
