(e.g. umount_ffs, umount_nfs, etc.) exec it instead of calling
unmount(2).
Closes PR 698.
Note that the original plan for the PR also involved adding a generic
facility to store an alternate FS type name in the kernel to use when
unmounting. This was intended to support filesystems implemented as
loopback nfs servers, where the visible mount would be of type "nfs"
pointing at localhost; in that case one would want to be able to
provide an additional string in order to run an unmount program that
would both remove that mount and also shut down the loopback nfs
server daemon.
However, in the 21+ years since the PR was filed, loopback nfs servers
have gone out of favor (for good reasons) so I don't see any need to
worry about this case at present, especially since the PR has been
hanging around this long anyway. (If anyone still has a loopback nfs
server that they want to use a custom unmount program with, file a new
PR and assign it to me and I'll deal with it specifically in the nfs
mount args structure, which unmount already knows how to retrieve and
examine.)
It is my understanding that filesystems implemented with fuse (which
has displaced the loopback nfs server model) can already set the FS
type field so no further work is needed to allow them to use a custom
unmount program. If this is not the case, please let me know and I'll
attend to it.
There is no longer any need that I see to provide a general facility
for storing an alternate filesystem type name.
(One might also ask whether there's any real need for this
functionality at all any more; this is a fair question, but (a) the
change is small and (b) there are certainly cases when doing FS
research where you want a custom unmount program; been there & done
that.)
- debug log is now using syslog
- seperate options for log level and foreground mode
- writes a pidfile so that /etc/rc.d/iscsid works
Now links with libutil for pidfile(), the functions login() and logout()
needed to be renamed to avoid a conflict.
- drops the nothreads option
- handles signals to shut down gracefully
- the driver may also shut down the daemon when it terminates
Currently this cannot work as the driver can only terminate when
the daemon has closed the driver file handle.

these two values can be used to calculate the write amplication
factor:
WAF = ( A247 + A248 ) / A247
By this change, nexthop caches (IP-MAC address pair) are not stored
in the routing table anymore. Instead nexthop caches are stored in
each network interface; we already have lltable/llentry data structure
for this purpose. This change also obsoletes the concept of cloning/cloned
routes. Cloned routes no longer exist while cloning routes still exist
with renamed to connected routes.
Noticeable changes are:
- Nexthop caches aren't listed in route show/netstat -r
- sysctl(NET_RT_DUMP) doesn't return them
- If RTF_LLDATA is specified, it returns nexthop caches
- Several definitions of routing flags and messages are removed
- RTF_CLONING, RTF_XRESOLVE, RTF_LLINFO, RTF_CLONED and RTM_RESOLVE
- RTF_CONNECTED is added
- It has the same value of RTF_CLONING for backward compatibility
- route's -xresolve, -[no]cloned and -llinfo options are removed
- -[no]cloning remains because it seems there are users
- -[no]connected is introduced and recommended
to be used instead of -[no]cloning
- route show/netstat -r drops some flags
- 'L' and 'c' are not seen anymore
- 'C' now indicates a connected route
- Gateway value of a route of an interface address is now not
a L2 address but "link#N" like a connected (cloning) route
- Proxy ARP: "arp -s ... pub" doesn't create a route
