that vnodes with dirty pages are active. This is enforced by
vinactive() doing vm_object_page_clean() pass over the vnode pages.
The issue is, if vinactive() cannot be called during vput() due to the
vnode being only shared-locked, we might end up with the dirty pages
for the vnode on the free list. Such vnode is invisible to syncer,
and pages are only cleaned on the vnode reactivation. In other words,
the race results in the broken guarantee that user data, written
through the mmap(2), is written to the disk not later than in 30
seconds after the write.
Fix this by keeping the vnode which is freed but still owing
inactivation, on the active list. When syncer loops find such vnode,
it is deactivated and cleaned by the final vput() call.

Instead of synchronously waiting for the worker, perform the worker'

during return from kernel to usermode. A new ast request to call
softdep_ast_cleanup() is created, the SU code now only checks the size

There is no ast delivery for the kernel threads, so they are exempted
from the mechanism, except NFS daemon threads. NFS server loop
explicitely checks for the request, and informs the schedule_cleanup()
that it is capable of handling the requests by the process P2_AST_SU

sequence is performed on UFS SU+J rootfs:
cp -Rp /sbin/init /sbin/init.old
mv -f /sbin/init.old /sbin/init
Hang occurs on the rootfs unmount. There are two issues:
1. Removed init binary, which is still mapped, creates a reference to
the removed vnode. The inodeblock for such vnode must have active
inodedep, which is (eventually) linked through the unlinked list. This
means that ffs_sync(MNT_SUSPEND) cannot succeed, because number of
softdep workitems for the mp is always > 0. FFS is suspended during
unmount, so unmount just hangs.
2. As noted above, the inodedep is linked eventually. It is not
linked until the superblock is written. But at the vfs_unmountall()
time, when the rootfs is unmounted, the call is made to
ffs_unmount()->ffs_sync() before vflush(), and ffs_sync() only calls
ffs_sbupdate() after all workitems are flushed. It is masked for
normal system operations, because syncer works in parallel and
eventually flushes superblock. Syncer is stopped when rootfs
unmounted, so ffs_sync() must do sb update on its own.
Correct the issues listed above. For MNT_SUSPEND, count the number of
linked unlinked inodedeps (this is not a typo) and substract the count
of such workitems from the total. For the second issue, the
ffs_sbupdate() is called right after device sync in ffs_sync() loop.
There is third problem, occuring with both SU and SU+J. The
softdep_waitidle() loop, which waits for softdep_flush() thread to
clear the worklist, only waits 20ms max. It seems that the 1 tick,
specified for msleep(9), was a typo.
Add fsync(devvp, MNT_WAIT) call to softdep_waitidle(), which seems to
significantly help the softdep thread, and change the MNT_LAZY update
at the reboot time to MNT_WAIT for similar reasons. Note that
userspace cannot create more work while devvp is flushed, since the
mount point is always suspended before the call to softdep_waitidle()
in unmount or remount path.

The cap_rights_t represents capability rights. We used to use one bit to
represent one right, but we are running out of spare bits. Currently the new
structure provides place for 114 rights (so 50 more than the previous
cap_rights_t), but it is possible to grow the structure to hold at least 285
rights, although we can make it even larger if 285 rights won't be enough.
The structure definition looks like this:
struct cap_rights {
uint64_t cr_rights[CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION + 2];
};
The initial CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION is 0.
The top two bits in the first element of the cr_rights[] array contain total
number of elements in the array - 2. This means if those two bits are equal to
0, we have 2 array elements.
The top two bits in all remaining array elements should be 0.
The next five bits in all array elements contain array index. Only one bit is
used and bit position in this five-bits range defines array index. This means
there can be at most five array elements in the future.
To define new right the CAPRIGHT() macro must be used. The macro takes two
arguments - an array index and a bit to set, eg.
#define CAP_PDKILL CAPRIGHT(1, 0x0000000000000800ULL)
We still support aliases that combine few rights, but the rights have to belong
to the same array element, eg:
#define CAP_LOOKUP CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000000400ULL)
#define CAP_FCHMOD CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000002000ULL)
#define CAP_FCHMODAT (CAP_FCHMOD | CAP_LOOKUP)
There is new API to manage the new cap_rights_t structure:
cap_rights_t *cap_rights_init(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
void cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
void cap_rights_clear(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
bool cap_rights_is_set(const cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
bool cap_rights_is_valid(const cap_rights_t *rights);
void cap_rights_merge(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
void cap_rights_remove(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
bool cap_rights_contains(const cap_rights_t *big, const cap_rights_t *little);
Capability rights to the cap_rights_init(), cap_rights_set(),
cap_rights_clear() and cap_rights_is_set() functions are provided by
separating them with commas, eg:
cap_rights_t rights;
cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_READ, CAP_WRITE, CAP_FSTAT);
There is no need to terminate the list of rights, as those functions are
actually macros that take care of the termination, eg:
#define cap_rights_set(rights, ...) \
__cap_rights_set((rights), __VA_ARGS__, 0ULL)
void __cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
Thanks to using one bit as an array index we can assert in those functions that
there are no two rights belonging to different array elements provided
together. For example this is illegal and will be detected, because CAP_LOOKUP
belongs to element 0 and CAP_PDKILL to element 1:
cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_LOOKUP | CAP_PDKILL);
Providing several rights that belongs to the same array's element this way is
correct, but is not advised. It should only be used for aliases definition.
This commit also breaks compatibility with some existing Capsicum system calls,

I have 25TB Dell PERC 6 RAID5 array. When it becomes almost
full (10-20GB free), processes which write data to it start
eating 100% CPU and write speed drops below 1MB/sec (normally
to gives 400MB/sec). The revision at which it first became
apparent was http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/249782.
The offending change reserved an area in each cylinder group to
store metadata. The new algorithm attempts to save this area for
metadata and allows its use for non-metadata only after all the
data areas have been exhausted. The size of the reserved area
defaults to half of minfree, so the filesystem reports full before
the data area can completely fill. However, in this report, the
filesystem has had minfree reduced to 1% thus forcing the metadata
area to be used for data. As the filesystem approached full, it
had only metadata areas left to allocate. The result was that
every block allocation had to scan summary data for 30,000 cylinder
groups before falling back to searching up to 30,000 metadata areas.
The fix is to give up on saving the metadata areas once the free
space reserve drops below 2%. The effect of this change is to use
the old algorithm of just accepting the first available block that
we find. Since most filesystems use the default 5% minfree, this
will have no effect on their operation. For those that want to push
to the limit, they will get their crappy block placements quickly.

and CIFS file attributes as BSD stat(2) flags.
This work is intended to be compatible with ZFS, the Solaris CIFS
server's interaction with ZFS, somewhat compatible with MacOS X,
and of course compatible with Windows.
The Windows attributes that are implemented were chosen based on
the attributes that ZFS already supports.
The summary of the flags is as follows:
UF_SYSTEM: Command line name: "system" or "usystem"
ZFS name: XAT_SYSTEM, ZFS_SYSTEM
Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM
This flag means that the file is used by the
operating system. FreeBSD does not enforce any
special handling when this flag is set.
UF_SPARSE: Command line name: "sparse" or "usparse"
ZFS name: XAT_SPARSE, ZFS_SPARSE
Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SPARSE_FILE
This flag means that the file is sparse. Although
ZFS may modify this in some situations, there is
not generally any special handling for this flag.
UF_OFFLINE: Command line name: "offline" or "uoffline"
ZFS name: XAT_OFFLINE, ZFS_OFFLINE
Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_OFFLINE
This flag means that the file has been moved to
offline storage. FreeBSD does not have any special
handling for this flag.
UF_REPARSE: Command line name: "reparse" or "ureparse"
ZFS name: XAT_REPARSE, ZFS_REPARSE
Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT
This flag means that the file is a Windows reparse
point. ZFS has special handling code for reparse
points, but we don't currently have the other
supporting infrastructure for them.
UF_HIDDEN: Command line name: "hidden" or "uhidden"
ZFS name: XAT_HIDDEN, ZFS_HIDDEN
Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN
This flag means that the file may be excluded from
a directory listing if the application honors it.
FreeBSD has no special handling for this flag.
The name and bit definition for UF_HIDDEN are
identical to the definition in MacOS X.
UF_READONLY: Command line name: "urdonly", "rdonly", "readonly"
ZFS name: XAT_READONLY, ZFS_READONLY
Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY
This flag means that the file may not written or
appended, but its attributes may be changed.
ZFS currently enforces this flag, but Illumos
developers have discussed disabling enforcement.
The behavior of this flag is different than MacOS X.
MacOS X uses UF_IMMUTABLE to represent the DOS
readonly permission, but that flag has a stronger
meaning than the semantics of DOS readonly permissions.
UF_ARCHIVE: Command line name: "uarch", "uarchive"
ZFS_NAME: XAT_ARCHIVE, ZFS_ARCHIVE
Windows name: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE
The UF_ARCHIVED flag means that the file has changed and
needs to be archived. The meaning is same as
the Windows FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE attribute, and
the ZFS XAT_ARCHIVE and ZFS_ARCHIVE attribute.
msdosfs and ZFS have special handling for this flag.
i.e. they will set it when the file changes.
sys/param.h: Bump __FreeBSD_version to 1000047 for the
addition of new stat(2) flags.
chflags.1: Document the new command line flag names
(e.g. "system", "hidden") available to the
user.
ls.1: Reference chflags(1) for a list of file flags
and their meanings.
strtofflags.c: Implement the mapping between the new
command line flag names and new stat(2)
flags.
chflags.2: Document all of the new stat(2) flags, and
explain the intended behavior in a little
more detail. Explain how they map to
Windows file attributes.
Different filesystems behave differently
with respect to flags, so warn the
application developer to take care when
using them.
zfs_vnops.c: Add support for getting and setting the
UF_ARCHIVE, UF_READONLY, UF_SYSTEM, UF_HIDDEN,
UF_REPARSE, UF_OFFLINE, and UF_SPARSE flags.
All of these flags are implemented using
attributes that ZFS already supports, so
the on-disk format has not changed.
ZFS currently doesn't allow setting the
UF_REPARSE flag, and we don't really have
the other infrastructure to support reparse
points.
msdosfs_denode.c,
msdosfs_vnops.c: Add support for getting and setting
UF_HIDDEN, UF_SYSTEM and UF_READONLY
in MSDOSFS.
It supported SF_ARCHIVED, but this has been
changed to be UF_ARCHIVE, which has the same
semantics as the DOS archive attribute instead
of inverse semantics like SF_ARCHIVED.
After discussion with Bruce Evans, change
several things in the msdosfs behavior:
Use UF_READONLY to indicate whether a file
is writeable instead of file permissions, but
don't actually enforce it.
Refuse to change attributes on the root
directory, because it is special in FAT
filesystems, but allow most other attribute
changes on directories.
Don't set the archive attribute on a directory
when its modification time is updated.
Windows and DOS don't set the archive attribute
in that scenario, so we are now bug-for-bug
compatible.
smbfs_node.c,
smbfs_vnops.c: Add support for UF_HIDDEN, UF_SYSTEM,
UF_READONLY and UF_ARCHIVE in SMBFS.
This is similar to changes that Apple has
made in their version of SMBFS (as of
smb-583.8, posted on opensource.apple.com),
but not quite the same.
We map SMB_FA_READONLY to UF_READONLY,
because UF_READONLY is intended to match
the semantics of the DOS readonly flag.
The MacOS X code maps both UF_IMMUTABLE
and SF_IMMUTABLE to SMB_FA_READONLY, but
the immutable flags have stronger meaning
than the DOS readonly bit.
stat.h: Add definitions for UF_SYSTEM, UF_SPARSE,
UF_OFFLINE, UF_REPARSE, UF_ARCHIVE, UF_READONLY
and UF_HIDDEN.
The definition of UF_HIDDEN is the same as
the MacOS X definition.
Add commented-out definitions of
UF_COMPRESSED and UF_TRACKED. They are
defined in MacOS X (as of 10.8.2), but we
do not implement them (yet).
ufs_vnops.c: Add support for getting and setting
UF_ARCHIVE, UF_HIDDEN, UF_OFFLINE, UF_READONLY,
UF_REPARSE, UF_SPARSE, and UF_SYSTEM in UFS.
Alphabetize the flags that are supported.

that even after all the actual references to the vnode had gone,
the vnode still showed active references. For files that had been

This bug manifested itself in the Postgres server which would

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).

- VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED()

VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED()
* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions
using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h
consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into
the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris
versions must be avoided.
At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions
directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.
The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must

The order is inode buffer lock -> snaplk -> cg buffer lock, reversing
the order causes deadlocks.
Inode block must not be written while cg block buffer is owned. The
FFS copy on write needs to allocate a block to copy the content of the
inode block, and the cylinder group selected for the allocation might
be the same as the owned cg block. The reserved block detection code
in the ffs_copyonwrite() and ffs_bp_snapblk() is unable to detect the
situation, because the locked cg buffer is not exposed to it.
In order to maintain the dependency between initialized inode block
and the cg_initediblk pointer, look up the inode buffer in
non-blocking mode. If succeeded, brelse cg block, initialize the inode
block and write it. After the write is finished, reread cg block and
update the cg_initediblk.
If inode block is already locked by another thread, let the another
thread initialize it. If another thread raced with us after we
started writing inode block, the situation is detected by an update of
cg_initediblk. Note that double-initialization of the inode block is
harmless, the block cannot be used until cg_initediblk is incremented.

If the cylinder group claiming the new inodes were written before the

Rather than adding a soft updates dependency to ensure that the new
inode block is written before it is claimed by the cylinder group

When the cluster crosses the boundary into the first indirect block,

and bmsafemap dependency structures in inodedep_lookup() and
bmsafemap_lookup() respectively. The setup of these structures must
be done while holding the soft-dependency mutex. If the inodedep is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the bmsafemap. If the bmsafemap is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the inodedep.
To resolve this problem, bmsafemap_lookup has had a parameter added
that allows a pre-malloc'ed bmsafemap to be passed in so that it does
not need to release the mutex to create a new bmsafemap. The
softdep_setup_inomapdep() routine pre-malloc's a bmsafemap dependency
before acquiring the mutex and starting to build the inodedep with a
call to inodedep_lookup(). The subsequent call to bmsafemap_lookup()
is passed this pre-allocated bmsafemap entry so that it need not
release the mutex if it needs to create a new one.

MNT_VNODE_FOREACH_ALL in the vfs_msync, ffs_sync_lazy, and qsync
routines.
The vfs_msync routine is run every 30 seconds for every writably
mounted filesystem. It ensures that any files mmap'ed from the
filesystem with modified pages have those pages queued to be
written back to the file from which they are mapped.
The ffs_lazy_sync and qsync routines are run every 30 seconds for
every writably mounted UFS/FFS filesystem. The ffs_lazy_sync routine
ensures that any files that have been accessed in the previous
30 seconds have had their access times queued for updating in the
filesystem. The qsync routine ensures that any files with modified
quotas have those quotas queued to be written back to their
associated quota file.
In a system configured with 250,000 vnodes, less than 1000 are
typically active at any point in time. Prior to this change all
250,000 vnodes would be locked and inspected twice every minute
by the syncer. For UFS/FFS filesystems they would be locked and
inspected six times every minute (twice by each of these three
routines since each of these routines does its own pass over the
vnodes associated with a mount point). With this change the syncer
now locks and inspects only the tiny set of vnodes that are active.

The primary changes are that the user of the interface no longer

and it is no longer referenced by a user process. The inode for a
file whose name has been removed, but is still referenced at the
time of a crash will still be allocated in the filesystem, but will
have no references (e.g., they will have no names referencing them
from any directory).
With traditional soft updates these unreferenced inodes will be
found and reclaimed when the background fsck is run. When using
journaled soft updates, the kernel must keep track of these inodes
so that it can find and reclaim them during the cleanup process.
Their existence cannot be stored in the journal as the journal only
handles short-term events, and they may persist for days. So, they
are tracked by keeping them in a linked list whose head pointer is
stored in the superblock. The journal tracks them only until their
linked list pointers have been commited to disk. Part of the cleanup
process involves traversing the list of unreferenced inodes and
reclaiming them.
This bug was triggered when confusion arose in the commit steps
of keeping the unreferenced-inode linked list coherent on disk.
Notably, a race between the link() system call adding a link-count
to a file and the unlink() system call removing a link-count to
the file. Here if the unlink() ran after link() had looked up
the file but before link() had incremented the link-count of the
file, the file's link-count would drop to zero before the link()
incremented it back up to one. If the file was referenced by a
user process, the first transition through zero made it appear
that it should be added to the unreferenced-inode list when in
fact it should not have been added. If the new name created by
link() was deleted within a few seconds (with the file still
referenced by a user process) it would legitimately be a candidate
for addition to the unreferenced-inode list. The result was that
there were two attempts to add the same inode to the unreferenced-inode
list which scrambled the unreferenced-inode list's pointers leading
to a panic. The fix is to detect and avoid the false attempt at
adding it to the unreferenced-inode list by having the link()
system call check to see if the link count is zero before it
increments it. If it is, the link() fails with ENOENT (showing that
it has failed the link()/unlink() race).
While tracking down this bug, we have added additional assertions
to detect the problem sooner and also simplified some of the code.

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.

the kernel allocated a buffer but did not zero it as it was about
to be completely filled by a uiomove() from the user's buffer.
However, if the uiomove() failed, the old contents of the buffer
could be exposed especially if the file was being mmap'ed. The
fix was to always zero the buffer when it was allocated.
This change first attempts the uiomove() to the newly allocated
(and dirty) buffer and only zeros it if the uiomove() fails. The
effect is to eliminate the gratuitous zeroing of the buffer in
the usual case where the uiomove() successfully fills it.

every 30 seconds. This spike in I/O caused the system to pause every
30 seconds which was quite annoying. So, the way that sync worked
was changed so that when a vnode was first dirtied, it was put on
a 30-second cleaning queue (see the syncer_workitem_pending queues
in kern/vfs_subr.c). If the file has not been written or deleted
after 30 seconds, the syncer pushes it out. As the syncer runs once
per second, dirty files are trickled out slowly over the 30-second
period instead of all at once by a call to sync(2).
The one drawback to this is that it does not cover the filesystem
metadata. To handle the metadata, vfs_allocate_syncvnode() is called
to create a "filesystem syncer vnode" at mount time which cycles
around the cleaning queue being sync'ed every 30 seconds. In the
original design, the only things it would sync for UFS were the
filesystem metadata: inode blocks, cylinder group bitmaps, and the
superblock (e.g., by VOP_FSYNC'ing devvp, the device vnode from
which the filesystem is mounted).
Somewhere in its path to integration with FreeBSD the flushing of
the filesystem syncer vnode got changed to sync every vnode associated
with the filesystem. The result of this change is to return to the
old filesystem-wide flush every 30-seconds behavior and makes the
whole 30-second delay per vnode useless.
This change goes back to the originally intended trickle out sync
behavior. Key to ensuring that all the intended semantics are
preserved (e.g., that all inode updates get flushed within a bounded
period of time) is that all inode modifications get pushed to their
corresponding inode blocks so that the metadata flush by the
filesystem syncer vnode gets them to the disk in a timely way.
