-- StevenJenkins - 11 Jun 2007 VInitVolumePackage^? is the main setup program for the fileserver, salvageserver, and volserver (and some utilities). It initializes the data structures need by each to do their operations. Synchronization is done via vol_glock_mutex, vol_trans_mutex, vol_put_volume_cond, and vol_sleep_cond.

• Called by:

1. fileserver
2. salvageserver
3. volserver
4. vol-dump utility
5. salvager
6. vol-bless utility (unsupported)

• Does: (among other operations)

1. VInitPartitionPackage^?
2. VInitVolumeHash^?
3. VInitVnodes^? (for small & large vnodes)
4. VAttachVolumesByPartition^?

VInitPartitionPackage^? simply allocates memory for use by the caller (for DAFs -- for non-DAFS, it's a no-op)

VInitVolumeHash^? allocates memory and sets up VolumeHashTable^?.Table; also does queue_Init for reach entry in the Table.

VInitVnodes^? allocates memory for the Vnode hash, and initializes all values in the entries (to 0 or NULL), or the nextpointer.

VInitVolumesByPartition^? reads the disk and calls VAttachVolumeByName^? (VPreAttachVolumeByName^? for DAFS) for each volume on the disk.
