bandwidth and seek time of the disk, using the "4 * bandwidth * seek time" formula from Neefe-Matthews' 1997 paper. An RZ25 disk with this option gets 200K segments. Reference the paper in the manual page.

.Nm newfs_lfs
|
|
.Nd construct a new LFS file system
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Ar newfs_lfs-options
|
|
.Ar special
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
builds a log-structured file system on the specified special
|
|
device basing its defaults on the information in the disk label.
|
|
Before running
|
|
.Nm
|
|
the disk must be labeled using
|
|
.Xr disklabel 8 ,
|
|
the proper fstype is 4.4LFS. Reasonable values for the
|
|
.Li fsize,
|
|
.Li bsize,
|
|
and
|
|
.Li sgs
|
|
fields are 1024, 8192, and 7 respectively.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options define the general layout policies.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Fl A
|
|
Attempt to compute the appropriate segment size using the formula
|
|
\fB4 * bandwidth * access time\fR. The disk is tested for twenty seconds
|
|
to discover its bandwidth and seek time.
|
|
.It Fl B Ar logical-segment-size
|
|
The logical segment size of the file system in bytes. If not specified,
|
|
the segment size is computed by left-shifting the partition label's block
|
|
size by the amount indicated in the partition table's segshift. If the
|
|
disklabel indicates a zero block size or segment shift, a compile-time default
|
|
segment size of 1M is used.
|
|
.It Fl b Ar block-size
|
|
The block size of the file system in bytes. If not specified, the block
|
|
size is taken from the partition label, or if the partition label
|
|
indicates 0, a compile-time default of 8K is used.
|
|
.It Fl F
|
|
Force creation of an LFS even on a partition labeled as another type.
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will use compile-time default values for block and fragment size, and segment
|
|
shift, unless these are overridden by command-line flags.
|
|
.It Fl f Ar fragment-size
|
|
The fragment size of the file system in bytes. If not specified,
|
|
the fragment size is taken from the partition label, or if the partition
|
|
label indicates 0, a compile-time default of 1K is used.
|
|
.It Fl L
|
|
Create a log-structured file system (LFS). This is the default, and this
|
|
option is provided for compatibility only.
|
|
.It Fl m Ar free space \&%
|
|
The percentage of space reserved from normal users; the minimum
|
|
free space threshold. The default value used is 10%.
|
|
.It Fl M Ar nsegs
|
|
Reserve this many segments for use exclusively by the cleaner, instead
|
|
of letting
|
|
.Nm
|
|
do the computation. Do not use this option.
|
|
.It Fl N
|
|
Do not actually create the filesystem.
|
|
.It Fl s Ar size
|
|
The size of the file system in sectors.
