From 16a7269ee5092dea79025f5841c7b81ec7520182 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joerg Wunsch Date: Sun, 25 Jun 1995 17:46:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] When tuneing filesystems with tunefs, it is not obvious what the current parameters are. You can use dumpfs, but that's not obvious which settings are tuneable, and is far from clear to the non-guru (it's like using a hexdump of a tar archive to get a table-of-contents). There is also an undocumented option in the man page that can be dangerous. Suppose your disk driver decides to scramble all writes while you tell tunefs to update all backup superblocks. This suggested change adds a '-p' (print) switch to bring it in line with some SVR4 systems. (Slightly changed by me, mostly for optics. - joerg) Submitted by: peter@haywire.dialix.com --- sbin/tunefs/tunefs.8 | 12 ++++++++++++ sbin/tunefs/tunefs.c | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 39 insertions(+) diff --git a/sbin/tunefs/tunefs.8 b/sbin/tunefs/tunefs.8 index b95ff9ddc878..fbec66cd612a 100644 --- a/sbin/tunefs/tunefs.8 +++ b/sbin/tunefs/tunefs.8 @@ -39,10 +39,12 @@ .Nd tune up an existing file system .Sh SYNOPSIS .Nm tunefs +.Op Fl A .Op Fl a Ar maxcontig .Op Fl d Ar rotdelay .Op Fl e Ar maxbpg .Op Fl m Ar minfree +.Op Fl p .Bk -words .Op Fl o Ar optimize_preference .Ek @@ -54,6 +56,10 @@ which affect the layout policies.
