- Remove all NFS related stuff from file system specific code.
- Drop the vfs_checkexp hook and generalize it in the new nfs_check_export
function, thus removing redundancy from all file systems.
- Move all NFS export-related stuff from kern/vfs_subr.c to the new
file sys/nfs/nfs_export.c. The former was becoming large and its code
is always compiled, regardless of the build options. Using the latter,
the code is only compiled in when NFSSERVER is enabled. While doing this,
also make some functions in nfs_subs.c conditional to NFSSERVER.
- Add a new command in nfssvc(2), called NFSSVC_SETEXPORTSLIST, that takes a
path and a set of export entries. At the moment it can only clear the
exports list or append entries, one by one, but it is done in a way that
allows setting the whole set of entries atomically in the future (see the
comment in mountd_set_exports_list or in doc/TODO).
- Change mountd(8) to use the nfssvc(2) system call instead of mount(2) so
that it becomes file system agnostic. In fact, all this whole thing was
done to remove a 'XXX' block from this utility!
- Change the mount*, newfs and fsck* userland utilities to not deal with NFS
exports initialization; done internally by the kernel when initializing
the NFS support for each file system.
- Implement an interface for VFS (called VFS hooks) so that several kernel
subsystems can run arbitrary code upon receipt of specific VFS events.
At the moment, this only provides support for unmount and is used to
destroy NFS exports lists from the file systems being unmounted, though it
has room for extension.

from macros to real functions. Original patch and review from chuq.
Note: ext2fs only keeps seconds in the on-disk inode, and msdosfs does not
have enough precision for all fields, so this is not very useful for those
two.
do this anymore (it hasn't for quite some time). Add a couple of conditional
debugging messages to indicate why segments are not cleaned, in the event
that lfs_segclean is used.
Make the LFCNSEGWAITALL fcntl work again.
segments containing zero-block FINFO records. These records cause segments
to become uncleanable, which would eventually result in a "no clean segments"
panic.
lfs_balloc(), and use that to estimate the number of dirty pages belonging
to LFS (subsystem or filesystem). This is almost certainly wrong for
the case of a large mmap()ed region, but the accounting is tighter than
what we had before, and performs much better in the typical case of pages
dirtied through write().
into a single, system-wide table, rather than having a separate hash table
per inode. Significantly reduces the "system" cpu usage of your average
file write.
be assured that the last byte of a file is always allocated. Previously
a file extension could cause the filesystem to be flushed, writing an
inconsistent inode to disk. Although this condition would be corrected
the next time blocks were written to disk, an intervening crash would leave
the filesystem in an inconsistent state, leaving fsck_lfs to complain
of an inode "partially truncated".
