and update fsck_lfs and dumplfs to deal with it. Note that while the argument
to -O is given in disk sectors, it must be a multiple of the fragment size,
and although it can be lower than the label or superblock, it can't intersect
either.
superblock. Avoids false positives should fsck_ffs be run on a filesystem
that was created after the UFS2 code has been merged.
This commit is mostly a forward compatibility patch that can be pulled
up in to the 1.6 branch.
From Kirk Mckusick in FreeBSD (setup.c rev. 1.30). Original commit message:
========
When checking the alternate superblock, we used to copy any fields
that might have changed, then did a byte-by-byte comparison with
the alternate. If any unused fields got used, they had to be added
to the exception list. Such changes caused too many false alarms.
So, I have changed the comparison algorithm to compare a selected
set of fields that are not expected to change. This new algorithm
causes far fewer false hits and still does a good job of detecting
problems when they have really occurred. In particular, this change
should ease the transition to kernels supporting UFS2 which make
some significant changes to the superblock.

I didn't have time to clean it up completely before my legal status
w.r.t. open source projects goes into limbo for a while. Other
developers are encouraged to play with the tool and get it into
release-worthy shape.
TODO list (see TODO file)
* verify it builds on -current, put it into release lists/etc. and src/sbin/Makefile
(built & tested on 1.6.1)
* make it ask questions before doing any work (confirm)
* create regression test suite (see discussions on tech-kern and
developers) and fix any bugs
* verify conversion to ANSI C didn't break anything
* port to UFS2
(there are still some details to work out) but expect that to go
away soon. To support these basic changes (creation of lfs_putpages,
lfs_gop_write, mods to lfs_balloc) several other changes were made, to
wit:
* Create a writer daemon kernel thread whose purpose is to handle page
writes for the pagedaemon, but which also takes over some of the
functions of lfs_check(). This thread is started the first time an
LFS is mounted.
* Add a "flags" parameter to GOP_SIZE. Current values are
GOP_SIZE_READ, meaning that the call should return the size of the
in-core version of the file, and GOP_SIZE_WRITE, meaning that it
should return the on-disk size. One of GOP_SIZE_READ or
GOP_SIZE_WRITE must be specified.
* Instead of using malloc(...M_WAITOK) for everything, reserve enough
resources to get by and use malloc(...M_NOWAIT), using the reserves if
necessary. Use the pool subsystem for structures small enough that
this is feasible. This also obsoletes LFS_THROTTLE.
And a few that are not strictly necessary:
* Moves the LFS inode extensions off onto a separately allocated
structure; getting closer to LFS as an LKM. "Welcome to 1.6O."
* Unified GOP_ALLOC between FFS and LFS.
* Update LFS copyright headers to correct values.
* Actually cast to unsigned in lfs_shellsort, like the comment says.
* Keep track of which segments were empty before the previous
checkpoint; any segments that pass two checkpoints both dirty and
empty can be summarily cleaned. Do this. Right now lfs_segclean
still works, but this should be turned into an effectless
compatibility syscall.
compile-time by BRIDGE_IPF, and at runtime by brconfig with the {ipf,-ipf}
option on a per-bridge basis.
As a side-effect, add PFIL_HOOKS processing to if_bridge.
and names a file, use that as a the default kernel, otherwise fall
back to /netbsd.
Makes lkms work *much* better when you're testing kernels that are not
named /netbsd.
effectively making the currently selected configuration the only one
active and removing boot configuration selection menu.
This is accomplished by running 'newbtconf revert'.
