Kernel:
* Add runtime quantity lfs_ravail, the number of disk-blocks reserved
for writing. Writes to the filesystem first reserve a maximum amount
of blocks before their write is allowed to proceed; after the blocks
are allocated the reserved total is reduced by a corresponding amount.
If the lfs_reserve function cannot immediately reserve the requested
number of blocks, the inode is unlocked, and the thread sleeps until
the cleaner has made enough space available for the blocks to be
reserved. In this way large files can be written to the filesystem
(or, smaller files can be written to a nearly-full but thoroughly
clean filesystem) and the cleaner can still function properly.
* Remove explicit switching on dlfs_minfreeseg from the kernel code; it
is now merely a fs-creation parameter used to compute dlfs_avail and
dlfs_bfree (and used by fsck_lfs(8) to check their accuracy). Its
former role is better assumed by a properly computed dlfs_avail.
* Bounds-check inode numbers submitted through lfs_bmapv and lfs_markv.
This prevents a panic, but, if the cleaner is feeding the filesystem
the wrong data, you are still in a world of hurt.
* Cleanup: remove explicit references of DEV_BSIZE in favor of
btodb()/dbtob().
lfs_cleanerd:
* Make -n mean "send N segments' blocks through a single call to
lfs_markv". Previously it had meant "clean N segments though N calls
to lfs_markv, before looking again to see if more need to be cleaned".
The new behavior gives better packing of direct data on disk with as
little metadata as possible, largely alleviating the problem that the
cleaner can consume more disk through inefficient use of metadata than
it frees by moving dirty data away from clean "holes" to produce
entirely clean segments.
* Make -b mean "read as many segments as necessary to write N segments
of dirty data back to disk", rather than its former meaning of "read
as many segments as necessary to free N segments worth of space". The
new meaning, combined with the new -n behavior described above,
further aids in cleaning storage efficiency as entire segments can be
written at once, using as few blocks as possible for segment summaries
and inode blocks.
* Make the cleaner take note of segments which could not be cleaned due
to error, and not attempt to clean them until they are entirely free
of dirty blocks. This prevents the case in which a cleanerd running
with -n 1 and without -b (formerly the default) would spin trying
repeatedly to clean a corrupt segment, while the remaining space
filled and deadlocked the filesystem.
* Update the lfs_cleanerd manual page to describe all the options,
including the changes mentioned here (in particular, the -b and -n
flags were previously undocumented).
fsck_lfs:
* Check, and optionally fix, lfs_avail (to an exact figure) and
lfs_bfree (within a margin of error) in pass 5.
newfs_lfs:
* Reduce the default dlfs_minfreeseg to 1/20 of the total segments.
* Add a warning if the sgs disklabel field is 16 (the default for FFS'
cpg, but not usually desirable for LFS' sgs: 5--8 is a better range).
* Change the calculation of lfs_avail and lfs_bfree, corresponding to
the kernel changes mentioned above.
mount_lfs:
* Add -N and -b options to pass corresponding -n and -b options to
lfs_cleanerd.
* Default to calling lfs_cleanerd with "-b -n 4".
[All of these changes were largely tested in the 1.5 branch, with the
idea that they (along with previous un-pulled-up work) could be applied
to the branch while it was still in ALPHA2; however my test system has
experienced corruption on another filesystem (/dev/console has gone
missing :^), and, while I believe this unrelated to the LFS changes, I
cannot with good conscience request that the changes be pulled up.]
Make lfs_uinodes a signed quantity for debugging purposes, and set it to
zero as fs mount time.
Enclose setting/clearing of the dirty flags (IN_MODIFIED, IN_ACCESSED,
IN_CLEANING) in macros, and use those macros everywhere. Make
LFS_ITIMES use these macros; updated the ITIMES macro in inode.h to know
about this. Make ufs_getattr use ITIMES instead of FFS_ITIMES.
fixes:
- Write copies of bfree and avail in the CLEANERINFO block, so the
cleaner doesn't have to guess which superblock has the current
information (if indeed any do).
- Tighten up accounting of lfs_avail (more needs to be done).
- When cleansing indirect blocks of UNWRITTEN, make sure not to mark
them clean, since they'll need to be rewritten later.
parametrized in the filesystem, defaulting to MIN_FREE_SEGS = 2 but set
to something more reasonable at newfs_lfs time.
Note the number of blocks that have been scheduled for writing but which
are not yet on disk in an inode extension, i_lfs_effnblks. Move
i_ffs_effnlink out of the ffs extension and onto the main inode, since
it's used all over the shared code and the lfs extension would clobber
it.
At inode write time, indirect blocks and inode-held blocks of inodes
that have i_lfs_effnblks != i_ffs_blocks are cleansed of UNWRITTEN disk
addresses, so that these never make it to disk.
Change the space computation to appear to change the size of the *disk*
rather than the *bytes used* when more segment summaries and inode
blocks are written. Try to estimate the amount of space that these will
take up when more files are written, so the disk size doesn't change too
much.
Regularize error returns from lfs_valloc, lfs_balloc, lfs_truncate: they
now fail entirely, rather than succeeding half-way and leaving the fs in
an inconsistent state.
Rewrite lfs_truncate, mostly stealing from ffs_truncate. The old
lfs_truncate had difficulty truncating a large file to a non-zero size
(indirect blocks were not handled appropriately).
Unmark VDIROP on fvp after ufs_remove, ufs_rmdir, so these can be
reclaimed immediately: this vnode would not be written to disk again
anyway if the removal succeeded, and if it failed, no directory
operation occurred.
ufs_makeinode and ufs_mkdir now remove IN_ADIROP on error.

increased on vfree.) May address PR #7213, but I haven't been able to
test thoroughly enough to say for sure.

Check the return value of lfs_vref where appropriate.
Fixes PR #s 10285 and 10352.
the head of the inode free list (on the superblock) always matches the
rest of the free list (in the ifile).
Protect lfs_fragextend with seglock, to prevent the segment byte count
fudging from making its way to disk.
Don't try to inactivate dirop vnodes that are still in the middle of
their dirop (may address PR#10285).
All the dirop vnops now mark the inodes with a new flag, IN_ADIROP, which
is removed as soon as the dirop is done (as opposed to VDIROP which stays
until the file is written). To address one issue raised in PR#9357.
a set of flags ("flags"). Two flags are defined, UPDATE_WAIT and
UPDATE_DIROP.
Under the old semantics, VOP_UPDATE would block if waitfor were set,
under the assumption that directory operations should be done
synchronously. At least LFS and FFS+softdep do not make this
assumption; FFS+softdep got around the problem by enclosing all relevant
calls to VOP_UPDATE in a "if(!DOINGSOFTDEP(vp))", while LFS simply
ignored waitfor, one of the reasons why NFS-serving an LFS filesystem
did not work properly.
Under the new semantics, the UPDATE_DIROP flag is a hint to the
fs-specific update routine that the call comes from a dirop routine, and
should be wait for, or not, accordingly.
Closes PR#8996.
buffer cache flags, to marking the inode and/or indirect blocks with a
special disk address UNWRITTEN==-2 when a block is accounted for. (This
address is never written to disk, but only used in-core. This is essentially
the same method of block accounting as on the UBC branch, where the buffer
headers don't exist.) Make sure that truncation is handled properly,
especially in the case of holey files.
Fixes PR#9994.

Solves PR#10001.
- lfs_truncate extends the file if called with length > i_ffs_size;
- lfs_truncate errors out if called with length < 0;
- lfs_balloc block accounting corrected for the case of blocks read

- mp->mnt_stat.f_iosize is initialized in lfs_mountfs.
in vfs_detach(). vfs_done may free global filesystem's resources,
typically those allocated in respective filesystem's init function.
Needed so those filesystems which went in via LKM have a chance to
clean after themselves before unloading. This fixes random panics
when LKM for filesystem using pools was loaded and unloaded several
times.
For each leaf filesystem, add appropriate vfs_done routine.
For symlinks > 60 chars we were bzero'ing part of (struct inode) past the
actual inode struct, corrupting memory following the current (struct inode)
resuling in a 'panic: pool_get(lfsinopl): free list modified' later.
This could also be the cause of random panics. With this fix LFS seems to be
useable for me now.
1.4 branch.
* Use a separate per-fs lock, instead of ufs_hashlock, to protect the Inode
free list. This seems to prevent the "lockmgr: %d, not exclusive lock holder
%d, unlocking" message I was mis-attributing last night to an unlocked vnode
being passed to vrele.
* Change calling semantics of lfs_ifind, to give better error reporting:
If fed a struct buf, it can report the block number of the offending inode
block as well as the inode number.
* Back out rev 1.10 of lfs_subr.c, since the replacement code was slightly
uglier while being functionally identical.
* Make lfs_vunref use the same free list convention as vrele/vput, so that
vget does not remove vnodes from a hash list they are not on.
from being inactivated under some conditions. Removed vnodes are now
inactivated when the VDIROP flag is cleared, and to prevent block
accounting problems this clearing has been postponed until
lfs_segunlock.
This prevents a rare condition in which Ifile "ifile" blocks, that is, the
blocks of the ifile which point VOP_VGET at the inode block containing the
requested inode, from being "unwritten" when cleaning during intense disk
activity.
dirop writing. In particular, lfs_writevnodes now writes all buffers from
a flushed vnode whether cleaning or not, and the same with the Ifile; and
lfs_segwrite does not attempt to write data from other non-cleaning vnodes,
even if a vnode is being flushed.
(Previously buffers could be marked dirty by the cleaner, and possibly by
other means.)
Also check for softdep mount in vfs_shutdown before trying to bawrite
buffers, since other filesystems don't need it and lfs doesn't bawrite.
