// Buffer cache.
//
// The buffer cache is a linked list of buf structures
// holding cached copies of disk block contents.
// Each buf has two state bits B_BUSY and B_VALID.
// If B_BUSY is set, it means that some code is currently
// editing buf, so other code is not allowed to look at it.
// To wait for a buffer that is B_BUSY, sleep on buf.
// (See bget below.)
// 
// If B_VALID is set, it means that the memory contents
// have been initialized by reading them off the disk.
// (Conversely, if B_VALID is not set, the memory contents
// of buf must be initialized, often by calling bread,
// before being used.)
// 
// After making changes to a buf's memory, call bwrite to flush
// the changes out to disk, to keep the disk and memory copies
// in sync.
//
// When finished with a buffer, call brelse to release the buffer
// (i.e., clear B_BUSY), so that others can access it.
//
// Bufs that are not B_BUSY are fair game for reuse for other
// disk blocks.  It is not allowed to use a buf after calling brelse.
