snapshots on UFS filesystems running with journaled soft updates.
This is the first of several bugs that need to be fixed before
removing the restriction added in -r230250 to prevent the use
of snapshots on filesystems running with journaled soft updates.
The deadlock occurs when holding the snapshot lock (snaplk)
and then trying to flush an inode via ffs_update(). We become
blocked by another process trying to flush a different inode
contained in the same inode block that we need. It holds the
inode block for which we are waiting locked. When it tries to
write the inode block, it gets blocked waiting for the our
snaplk when it calls ffs_copyonwrite() to see if the inode
block needs to be copied in our snapshot.
The most obvious place that this deadlock arises is in the
ffs_copyonwrite() routine when it updates critical metadata
in a snapshot and tries to write it out before proceeding.
The fix here is to write the data and indirect block pointer
for the snapshot, but to skip the call to ffs_update() to
write the snapshot inode. To ensure that we will never have
to update a pointer in the inode itself, the ffs_snapshot()
routine that creates the snapshot has to ensure that all the
direct blocks are allocated as part of the creation of the
snapshot.
A less obvious place that this deadlock occurs is when we hold
the snaplk because we are deleting a snapshot. In the course of
doing the deletion, we need to allocate various soft update
dependency structures and allocate some journal space. If we
hit a resource limit while doing this we decrease the resources
in use by flushing out an existing dirty file to get it to give
up the soft dependency resources that it holds. The flush can
cause an ffs_update() to be done on the inode for the file that
we have selected to flush resulting in the same deadlock as
described above when the inode that we have chosen to flush
resides in the same inode block as the snapshot inode that we hold.
The fix is to defer cleaning up any time that the inode on which
we are operating is a snapshot.

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.

extended attributes since FreeBSD 5, make the following semantic
changes:
- Don't update the inode modification time (mtime) when extended
attributes (and hence also ACLs) are added, modified, or removed.
- Don't update the inode access tie (atime) when extended attributes
(and hence also ACLs) are queried.
This means that rsync (and related tools) won't improperly think
that the data in the file has changed when only the ACL has changed.
Note that ffs_reallocblks() has not been changed to not update on an
IO_EXT transaction, but currently EAs don't use the cluster write
routines so this shouldn't be a problem. If EAs grow support for
clustering, then VOP_REALLOCBLKS() will need to grow a flag argument

Avoid dealing with buffers in bdwrite() that are from other side of

Give FFS vnodes a specific bufwrite method which contains all the
background write stuff and then calls into the default bufwrite()

Remove all the background write related stuff from the normal bufwrite.
This drags the softdep_move_dependencies() back into FFS.
Long term, it is worth looking at simply copying the data into
allocated memory and issuing the bio directly and not create the
"shadow buf" in the first place (just like copy-on-write is done
in snapshots for instance). I don't think we really gain anything
but complexity from doing this with a buf.
The "business class upgrade" was implemented in UFS's VOP_LOCK
implementation ufs_lock() which is the wrong layer, so move it to
ffs_lock().
Also, as long as we have not abandonned advanced vfs-stacking we
should not preclude it from happening: instead of implementing a
copy locally, use the VOP_LOCK_APV(&ufs) to correctly arrive at
vop_stdlock() at the bottom.

Adjust to more contemporary circumstances and gain type checking.
Replace the entire vop_t frobbing thing with properly typed
structures. The only casualty is that we can not add a new
VOP_ method with a loadable module. History has not given
us reason to belive this would ever be feasible in the the
first place.
Eliminate in toto VOCALL(), vop_t, VNODEOP_SET() etc.
Give coda correct prototypes and function definitions for
all vop_()s.
Generate a bit more data from the vnode_if.src file: a
struct vop_vector and protype typedefs for all vop methods.
Add a new vop_bypass() and make vop_default be a pointer
to another struct vop_vector.
Remove a lot of vfs_init since vop_vector is ready to use
from the compiler.
Cast various vop_mumble() to void * with uppercase name,
for instance VOP_PANIC, VOP_NULL etc.
Implement VCALL() by making vdesc_offset the offsetof() the
relevant function pointer in vop_vector. This is disgusting
but since the code is generated by a script comparatively
safe. The alternative for nullfs etc. would be much worse.
Fix up all vnode method vectors to remove casts so they
become typesafe. (The bulk of this is generated by scripts)
This eliminates a bunch of vnode overhead (approx 1-2 % speed
improvement) and gives us more control over the access to the storage
device.
Access counts on the underlying device are not correctly tracked and
therefore it is possible to read-only mount the same disk device multiple
times:
syv# mount -p
/dev/md0 /var ufs rw 2 2
/dev/ad0 /mnt ufs ro 1 1
/dev/ad0 /mnt2 ufs ro 1 1
/dev/ad0 /mnt3 ufs ro 1 1
Since UFS/FFS is not a synchrousely consistent filesystem (ie: it caches
things in RAM) this is not possible with read-write mounts, and the system
will correctly reject this.
Details:
Add a geom consumer and a bufobj pointer to ufsmount.
Eliminate the vnode argument from softdep_disk_prewrite().
Pick the vnode out of bp->b_vp for now. Eventually we
should find it through bp->b_bufobj->b_private.
In the mountcode, use g_vfs_open() once we have used
VOP_ACCESS() to check permissions.
When upgrading and downgrading between r/o and r/w do the
right thing with GEOM access counts. Remove all the
workarounds for not being able to do this with VOP_OPEN().
If we are the root mount, drop the exclusive access count
until we upgrade to r/w. This allows fsck of the root
filesystem and the MNT_RELOAD to work correctly.
Set bo_private to the GEOM consumer on the device bufobj.
Change the ffs_ops->strategy function to call g_vfs_strategy()
In ufs_strategy() directly call the strategy on the disk
bufobj. Same in rawread.
In ffs_fsync() we will no longer see VCHR device nodes, so
remove code which synced the filesystem mounted on it, in
case we came there. I'm not sure this code made sense in
the first place since we would have taken the specfs route
on such a vnode.
Redo the highly bogus readblock() function in the snapshot
code to something slightly less bogus: Constructing an uio
and using physio was really quite a detour. Instead just
fill in a bio and ship it down.
Give ffs it's own bufobj->bo_ops vector and create a private strategy
routine, (currently misnamed for forwards compatibility), which is
just a copy of the generic bufstrategy routine except we call
softdep_disk_prewrite() directly instead of through the buf_prewrite()
indirection.
Teach UFS about the need for softdep_disk_prewrite() and call the
function directly in FFS.
Remove buf_prewrite() from the default bufstrategy() and from the

"freeing free inode". The problem arises when the snapshot code
is scanning the filesystem looking for inodes with a reference
count of zero (e.g., unlinked but still open) so that it can
expunge them from its view. If it encounters a reclaimed vnode

is to check each candidate inode to see if it has already been

As this code is not actually used by any of the existing
interfaces, it seems unlikely to break anything (famous
last words).
The internal kernel interface to manipulate these attributes
is invoked using two new IO_ flags: IO_NORMAL and IO_EXT.
These flags may be specified in the ioflags word of VOP_READ,
VOP_WRITE, and VOP_TRUNCATE. Specifying IO_NORMAL means that
you want to do I/O to the normal data part of the file and
IO_EXT means that you want to do I/O to the extended attributes
part of the file. IO_NORMAL and IO_EXT are mutually exclusive
for VOP_READ and VOP_WRITE, but may be specified individually
or together in the case of VOP_TRUNCATE. For example, when
removing a file, VOP_TRUNCATE is called with both IO_NORMAL
and IO_EXT set. For backward compatibility, if neither IO_NORMAL
nor IO_EXT is set, then IO_NORMAL is assumed.
Note that the BA_ and IO_ flags have been `merged' so that they
may both be used in the same flags word. This merger is possible
by assigning the IO_ flags to the low sixteen bits and the BA_
flags the high sixteen bits. This works because the high sixteen
bits of the IO_ word is reserved for read-ahead and help with
write clustering so will never be used for flags. This merge
lets us get away from code of the form:
if (ioflags & IO_SYNC)
flags |= BA_SYNC;
For the future, I have considered adding a new field to the
vattr structure, va_extsize. This addition could then be
exported through the stat structure to allow applications to
find out the size of the extended attribute storage and also
would provide a more standard interface for truncating them
(via VOP_SETATTR rather than VOP_TRUNCATE).
I am also contemplating adding a pathconf parameter (for
concreteness, lets call it _PC_MAX_EXTSIZE) which would
let an application determine the maximum size of the extended
atribute storage.

filesystem expands the inode to 256 bytes to make space for 64-bit
block pointers. It also adds a file-creation time field, an ability
to use jumbo blocks per inode to allow extent like pointer density,
and space for extended attributes (up to twice the filesystem block
size worth of attributes, e.g., on a 16K filesystem, there is space
for 32K of attributes). UFS2 fully supports and runs existing UFS1
filesystems. New filesystems built using newfs can be built in either
UFS1 or UFS2 format using the -O option. In this commit UFS1 is
the default format, so if you want to build UFS2 format filesystems,
you must specify -O 2. This default will be changed to UFS2 when
UFS2 proves itself to be stable. In this commit the boot code for
reading UFS2 filesystems is not compiled (see /sys/boot/common/ufsread.c)
