If MALLOCLOG is defined, make lfs_newbuf and lfs_freebuf pass along the
caller's file and line to _malloc and _free.
pages we've allocated past the real EOF when we fail to allocate a block.
we used to play games with the VM notion of the file size but we don't do
that anymore, so uvm_vnp_setsize() doesn't do what we want anymore.
call the pager flush op instead.
aby bad symptoms any more, fix for bug causing problems with this
option was in BSD4.4-Lite2 and pulled in together with softdep changes

on mount, through the newer checkpoint and on through any newer
partial-segments that may have been written but not checkpointed because
of an intervening crash.
LFS_DO_ROLLFORWARD is not defined by default.
in an error case in lfs_markv. Change the vfs_getvfs() error to return
ENOENT, for consistency with failure of vfs_busy().
99% of this patch was from Jesse Off <joff@gci-net.com> (PR #11547).
(PR #11468). In the case of fragment allocation, check to see if enough
space is available before extending a fragment already scheduled for writing.
The locked_queue_* variables indicate the number of buffer headers and bytes,
respectively, that are unavailable to getnewbuf() because they are locked up
waiting for LFS to flush them; make sure that that is actually what we're
counting, i.e., never count malloced buffers, and always use b_bufsize instead
of b_bcount.
If DEBUG is defined, the periodic calls to lfs_countlocked will now complain
if either counter is incorrect. (In the future lfs_countlocked will not need
to be called at all if DEBUG is not defined.)
when deallocating a fragment that has not made it to disk yet.
Also, during dirops, give the directory vnode an extra reference in
SET_DIROP, to ensure its continued existence during SET_ENDOP, preventing
a possible NULL-dereference there.
These two changes should close PR #11064.
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.]
