Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
for limiting disk (actually filesystem) IO.
Note that in some cases these limits are not quite precise. It's ok,
as long as it's within some reasonable bounds.
Testing - and review of the code, in particular the VFS and VM parts - is
very welcome.

This is ongoing work from Damjan Jovanovic to improve ext4 read support
with sparse files:
Keep track of the first and last block in each extent as it descends down
the extent tree, thus being able to work out that some blocks are sparse
earlier. This solves an issue on r293680.
In ext4_bmapext() start supporting the runb parameter, which appears to be
the number of adjacent blocks prior to the block being converted in the
same way that runp is the number of blocks after, speding up random access
to mmaped files.

Add support for sparse files in ext4. Also implement read-ahead, which
greatly increases the performance when transferring files from ext4.
Both features implemented by Damjan Jovanovic.

The ext4 inode flags do not have equivalents for chflags (1)
and hold information that is private to the implementation.
The i_flag field in the inode is a better place to hold the Ext4
inode flags as it saves us from masking flags while setting or
getting attributes. It should also make things cleaner if we
implement write support for Ext4.

r260545 cleared the inode flags to fix corruption problems but
we still need to pass some EXT4 flags for the ext4 read-only
mode. None of these attributes has an equivalent in FreeBSD and
are uninteresting for the system utilities so they should be
innaccessible in ext2_getattrib().
Note: we also use EXT4_HUGE_FILE but we use it directly from the
dinode structure so it is not necessary to translate it,

Add definitions for e2fs_daddr_t, e4fs_daddr_t in addition
to the already existing e2fs_lbn_t and adjust them for ext4.
Other than making the code more readable these changes should
fix problems related to big filesystems.
Setting the proper types can be tricky so the process was
helped by looking at UFS. In our implementation, logical block
numbers can be negative and the code depends on it. In ext2,
block numbers are unsigned so it is convenient to keep
e2fs_daddr_t unsigned and use the complete 32 bits. In the
case of e4fs_daddr_t, while the value should be unsigned, for
ext4 we only need to support 48 bits so preserving an extra
bit from the sign is not an issue.
While here also drop the ext2_setblock() prototype that was
never used.

Basic support for extents was implemented by Zheng Liu as part
of his Google Summer of Code in 2010. This support is read-only
at this time.
In addition to extents we also support the huge_file extension
for read-only purposes. This works nicely with the additional
support for birthtime/nanosec timestamps and dir_index that
have been added lately.
The implementation may not work for all ext4 filesystems as
it doesn't support some features that are being enabled by
default on recent linux like flex_bg. Nevertheless, the feature
should be very useful for migration or simple access in
filesystems that have been converted from ext2/3 or don't use
incompatible features.
Special thanks to Zheng Liu for his dedication and continued
work to support ext2 in FreeBSD.

In line to what is done in UFS, define an internal type
e2fs_lbn_t for the logical block numbers.
This change is basically a no-op as the new type is unchanged
(int32_t) but it may be useful as bumping this may be required
for ext4fs.
Also, as pointed out by Bruce Evans:
-Use daddr_t for daddr in ext2_bmaparray(). This seems to
improve reliability with the reallocblks option.
- Add a cast to the fsbtodb() macro as in UFS.
