check hash to the filesystem inodes. Access attempts to files
associated with an inode with an invalid check hash will fail with
EINVAL (Invalid argument). Access is reestablished after an fsck
is run to find and validate the inodes with invalid check-hashes.
This check avoids a class of filesystem panics related to corrupted
inodes. The hash is done using crc32c.
Note this check-hash is for the inode itself and not any of its
indirect blocks. Check-hash validation may be extended to also
cover indirect block pointers, but that will be a separate (and
more costly) feature.
Check hashes are added only to UFS2 and not to UFS1 as UFS1 is
primarily used in embedded systems with small memories and low-powered

folks running filesystems created on check-hash enabled kernels
(which I will call "new") on a non-check-hash enabled kernels (which
I will call "old). The idea here is to detect when a filesystem is
run on an old kernel and flag the filesystem so that when it gets
moved back to a new kernel, it will not start getting a slew of
check-hash errors.
Back when the UFS version 2 filesystem was created, it added a file
flag FS_INDEXDIRS that was to be set on any filesystem that kept
some sort of on-disk indexing for directories. The idea was precisely
to solve the issue we have today. Specifically that a newer kernel
that supported indexing would be able to tell that the filesystem
had been run on an older non-indexing kernel and that the indexes
should not be used until they had been rebuilt. Since we have never
implemented on-disk directory indicies, the FS_INDEXDIRS flag is
cleared every time any UFS version 2 filesystem ever created is
mounted for writing.
This commit repurposes the FS_INDEXDIRS flag as the FS_METACKHASH
flag. Thus, the FS_METACKHASH is definitively known to have always
been cleared. The FS_INDEXDIRS flag has been moved to a new block
of flags that will always be cleared starting with this commit
(until they get used to implement some future feature which needs
to detect that the filesystem was mounted on a kernel that predates
the new feature).
If a filesystem with check-hashes enabled is mounted on an old
kernel the FS_METACKHASH flag is cleared. When that filesystem is
mounted on a new kernel it will see that the FS_METACKHASH has been
cleared and clears all of the fs_metackhash flags. To get them
re-enabled the user must run fsck (in interactive mode without the
-y flag) which will ask for each supported check hash whether it
should be rebuilt and enabled. When fsck is run in its default preen
mode, it will just ignore the check hashes so they will remain
disabled.
The kernel has always disabled any check hash functions that it
does not support, so as more types of check hashes are added, we
will get a non-surprising result. Specifically if filesystems get
moved to kernels supporting fewer of the check hashes, those that
are not supported will be disabled. If the filesystem is moved back
to a kernel with more of the check-hashes available and fsck is run
interactively to rebuild them, then their checking will resume.
Otherwise just the smaller subset will be checked.
A side effect of this commit is that filesystems running with
cylinder-group check hashes will stop having them checked until
fsck is run to re-enable them (since none of them currently have
the FS_METACKHASH flag set). So, if you want check hashes enabled
on your filesystems after booting a kernel with these changes, you
need to run fsck to enable them. Any newly created filesystems will
have check hashes enabled. If in doubt as to whether you have check
hashes emabled, run dumpfs and look at the list of enabled flags
at the end of the superblock details.
Specifically reading is done if ffs_sbget() and writing is done
in ffs_sbput(). These functions are exported to libufs via the
sbget() and sbput() functions which then used in the various
filesystem utilities. This work is in preparation for adding
subperblock check hashes.
No functional change intended.

check hash to cylinder groups. If a check hash fails when a cylinder
group is read, no further allocations are attempted in that cylinder
group until it has been fixed by fsck. This avoids a class of
filesystem panics related to corrupted cylinder group maps. The
hash is done using crc32c.
Check hases are added only to UFS2 and not to UFS1 as UFS1 is primarily
used in embedded systems with small memories and low-powered processors
which need as light-weight a filesystem as possible.
Specifics of the changes:
sys/sys/buf.h:
Add BX_FSPRIV to reserve a set of eight b_xflags that may be used
by individual filesystems for their own purpose. Their specific
definitions are found in the header files for each filesystem
that uses them. Also add fields to struct buf as noted below.
sys/kern/vfs_bio.c:
It is only necessary to compute a check hash for a cylinder
group when it is actually read from disk. When calling bread,
you do not know whether the buffer was found in the cache or
read. So a new flag (GB_CKHASH) and a pointer to a function to
perform the hash has been added to breadn_flags to say that the
function should be called to calculate a hash if the data has
been read. The check hash is placed in b_ckhash and the B_CKHASH
flag is set to indicate that a read was done and a check hash
calculated. Though a rather elaborate mechanism, it should
also work for check hashing other metadata in the future. A
kernel internal API change was to change breada into a static
fucntion and add flags and a function pointer to a check-hash
function.
sys/ufs/ffs/fs.h:
Add flags for types of check hashes; stored in a new word in the
superblock. Define corresponding BX_ flags for the different types
of check hashes. Add a check hash word in the cylinder group.
sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_alloc.c:
In ffs_getcg do the dance with breadn_flags to get a check hash and
if one is provided, check it.
sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_vfsops.c:
Copy across the BX_FFSTYPES flags in background writes.
Update the check hash when writing out buffers that need them.
sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_snapshot.c:
Recompute check hash when updating snapshot cylinder groups.
sys/libkern/crc32.c:
lib/libufs/Makefile:
lib/libufs/libufs.h:
lib/libufs/cgroup.c:
Include libkern/crc32.c in libufs and use it to compute check
hashes when updating cylinder groups.
Four utilities are affected:
sbin/newfs/mkfs.c:
Add the check hashes when building the cylinder groups.
sbin/fsck_ffs/fsck.h:
sbin/fsck_ffs/fsutil.c:

sbin/fsck_ffs/pass5.c:
Offer to add check hashes to existing filesystems.
Precompute check hashes when rebuilding cylinder group
(although this will be done when it is written in fsutil.c
it is necessary to do it early before comparing with the old
cylinder group)

running time for a full fsck. It also reduces the random access time
for large files and speeds the traversal time for directory tree walks.
The key idea is to reserve a small area in each cylinder group
immediately following the inode blocks for the use of metadata,
specifically indirect blocks and directory contents. The new policy
is to preferentially place metadata in the metadata area and
everything else in the blocks that follow the metadata area.
The size of this area can be set when creating a filesystem using
newfs(8) or changed in an existing filesystem using tunefs(8).
Both utilities use the `-k held-for-metadata-blocks' option to
specify the amount of space to be held for metadata blocks in each
cylinder group. By default, newfs(8) sets this area to half of
minfree (typically 4% of the data area).
This work was inspired by a paper presented at Usenix's FAST '13:

extended using growfs(8). The problem here is that geom_label checks if
the filesystem size recorded in UFS superblock is equal to the provider
(i.e. device) size. This check cannot be removed due to backward
compatibility. On the other hand, in most cases growfs(8) cannot set
fs_size in the superblock to match the provider size, because, differently
from newfs(8), it cannot recompute cylinder group sizes.
To fix this problem, add another superblock field, fs_providersize, used
only for this purpose. The geom_label(4) will attach if either fs_size
(filesystem created with newfs(8)) or fs_providersize (filesystem expanded
using growfs(8)) matches the device size.

Large (60GB) filesystems created using "newfs -U -O 1 -b 65536 -f 8192"
show incorrect results from "df" for free and used space when mounted
immediately after creation. fsck on the new filesystem (before ever
mounting it once) gives a "SUMMARY INFORMATION BAD" error in phase 5.
This error hasn't occurred in any runs of fsck immediately after
"newfs -U -b 65536 -f 8192" (leaving out the "-O 1" option).
Solution:
The default UFS1 superblock is located at offset 8K in the filesystem
partition; the default UFS2 superblock is located at offset 64K in
the filesystem partition. For UFS1 filesystems with a blocksize of
64K, the first alternate superblock resides at 64K which is the the
location used for the default UFS2 superblock. By default, the
system first checks for a valid superblock at the default location
for a UFS2 filoesystem. For a UFS1 filesystem with a blocksize of
64K, there is a valid UFS1 superblock at this location. Thus, even
though it is expected to be a backup superblock, the system will
use it as its default superblock. So, we have to ensure that all the
statistcs on usage are correct in this first alternate superblock
as it is the superblock that will actually be used.
While tracking down this problem, another limitation of UFS1 became
evident. For UFS1, the number of inodes per cylinder group is stored
in an int16_t. Thus the maximum number of inodes per cylinder group
is limited to 2^15 - 1. This limit can easily be exceeded for block
sizes of 32K and above. Thus when building UFS1 filesystems, newfs
must limit the number of inodes per cylinder group to 2^15 - 1.

want to prepare disk images for emulators (though 'makefs' in port
can do something similar).
This relies on:
+ minor changes to pass the consistency checks even when working on a file;
+ an additional option, '-p partition' , to specify the disk partition to
initialize;
+ some changes on the I/O routines to deal with partition offsets.
The latter was a bit tricky to implement, see the details in newfs.h:
in newfs, I/O is done through libufs which assumes that the file
descriptor refers to the whole partition. Introducing support for
the offset in libufs would require a non-backward compatible change
in the library, to be dealt with a version bump or with symbol
versioning.
I felt both approaches to be overkill for this specific application,
especially because there might be other changes to libufs that might
become necessary in the near future.
So I used the following trick:
- read access is always done by calling bread() directly, so we just add
the offset in the (few) places that call bread();
- write access is done through bwrite() and sbwrite(), which in turn
calls bwrite(). To avoid rewriting sbwrite(), we supply our own version
of bwrite() here, which takes precedence over the version in libufs.
