to resolve errors which can cause corruption on recovery with the old
synchronous mechanism.
- Append partial truncation freework structures to indirdeps while
truncation is proceeding. These prevent new block pointers from
becoming valid until truncation completes and serialize truncations.
- On completion of a partial truncate journal work waits for zeroed
pointers to hit indirects.
- softdep_journal_freeblocks() handles last frag allocation and last
block zeroing.
- vtruncbuf/ffs_page_remove moved into softdep_*_freeblocks() so it
is only implemented in one place.
- Block allocation failure handling moved up one level so it does not
proceed with buf locks held. This permits us to do more extensive
reclaims when filesystem space is exhausted.
- softdep_sync_metadata() is broken into two parts, the first executes
once at the start of ffs_syncvnode() and flushes truncations and
inode dependencies. The second is called on each locked buf. This
eliminates excessive looping and rollbacks.
- Improve the mechanism in process_worklist_item() that handles
acquiring vnode locks for handle_workitem_remove() so that it works
more generally and does not loop excessively over the same worklist
items on each call.
- Don't corrupt directories by zeroing the tail in fsck. This is only
done for regular files.
- Push a fsync complete record for files that need it so the checker
knows a truncation in the journal is no longer valid.

- Use dep_current[] in place of specific dependency counts. This is
automatically maintained when workitems are allocated and has
less risk of becoming incorrect.
- Keep a hash of indirect blocks that have recently been freed and are
still referenced in the journal.
- Lookup blocks in this hash before forcing a new block write to wait on
the journal entry to hit the disk. This is only necessary to avoid
confusion between old identities as indirects and new identities as
file blocks.
- Don't free jseg structures until the journal has written a record that
invalidates it. This keeps the indirect block information around for
as long as is required to be safe.
- Force an empty journal block write when required to flush out stale
journal data that is simply waiting for the oldest valid sequence
number to advance beyond it.

- In softdep_revert_mkdir() find the dotaddref before we attempt to cancel
the jaddref so we can make assumptions about where the dotaddref is on
the list. cancel_jaddref() does not always remove items from the list
anymore.
- Always set GOINGAWAY on an inode in softdep_freefile() if DEPCOMPLETE
was never set. This ensures that dependencies will continue to be
processed on the inowait/bufwait list and is more an artifact of
the structure of the code than a pure ordering problem.
- Always set DEPCOMPLETE on canceled jaddrefs so that they can be freed
appropriately. This normally occurs when the refs are added to the
journal but if they are canceled before this point the state would
never be set and the dependency could never be freed.

journal blocks, instead of hard coding 512 byte sector size. Journal need
to atomically write the block, that can only be guaranteed at the device
sector size, not larger. Attempt to write less then sector size results in
driver errors.
Note that this is the first structure in UFS that depends on the
sector size. Other elements are written in the units of fragments.

deallocate_dependencies() is done. This opens a race between softdep
thread and the thread that does the truncation:
A write of the indirect block causes the freeblks to become
ALLCOMPLETE while softdep_setup_freeblocks() dropped softdep lock. And
then, softdep_disk_write_complete() would reassign the workitem to the
mount point worklist, causing premature processing of the workitem, or
journal write exhaust the fb_jfreeblkhd and handle_written_jfreeblk does
the same reassign.
indir_trunc() then would find the indirect block that is locked (with lock
owned by kernel) but without any dependencies, causing it to hang in
getblk() waiting for buffer lock.
Do not mark freeblks as DEPCOMPLETE until deallocate_dependencies()
finished.

all truncation as a result of unlink happened in the softdep flush
thread. This had the effect of being impossible to rate limit properly
with the journal code. Now the process issuing unlinks is suspended

- Implement real draining for vfs consumers by not relying on the
mnt_lock and using instead a refcount in order to keep track of lock
requesters.
- Due to the change above, remove the mnt_lock lockmgr because it is now
useless.
- Due to the change above, vfs_busy() is no more linked to a lockmgr.
Change so its KPI by removing the interlock argument and defining 2 new
flags for it: MBF_NOWAIT which basically replaces the LK_NOWAIT of the
old version (which was unlinked from the lockmgr alredy) and
MBF_MNTLSTLOCK which provides the ability to drop the mountlist_mtx
once the mnt interlock is held (ability still desired by most consumers).
- The stub used into vfs_mount_destroy(), that allows to override the
mnt_ref if running for more than 3 seconds, make it totally useless.
Remove it as it was thought to work into older versions.
If a problem of "refcount held never going away" should appear, we will
need to fix properly instead than trust on such hackish solution.
- Fix a bug where returning (with an error) from dounmount() was still
leaving the MNTK_MWAIT flag on even if it the waiters were actually
woken up. Just a place in vfs_mount_destroy() is left because it is
going to recycle the structure in any case, so it doesn't matter.
- Remove the markercnt refcount as it is useless.
This patch modifies VFS ABI and breaks KPI for vfs_busy() so manpages and
__FreeBSD_version will be modified accordingly.
