filesystem needs foreground checking (usually at boot time) or
can defer to background checking (after the system is up and running).
See the manual page, fsck_ffs(8), for details on the -F and -B options.
These options are primarily intended for use by the fsck front end.
All output is directed to stdout so that the output is coherent
when redirected to a file or a pipe. Unify the code with the fsck
front end that allows either a device or a mount point to be
specified as the argument to be checked.
a SIGINFO (normally via Ctrl-T), a line will be output indicating
the current phase number and progress information relevant to the
current phase.

utilities which use bits of fsck_ffs - namely quotacheck and fsdb.
In depth, utilities.c contains blockcheck() which is needed by both,
but also a slew of routines which require bits of the FFS code to be
compiled in. This breaks the fs-specific and non-fs-specific code
up into two files (well, blockcheck() is the only routine in utilities.c,
that'll change later) which makes building fsck_ffs, quotacheck and
fsdb work yet again.
(You won't find commits to fsdb and quotacheck here before I haven't
committed the post-fsck-wrappers version of them yet.)

The beginnings of the fsck wrappers stuff from NetBSD. This particular commit
brings a newly repo-copied sbin/fsck_ffs/ (from sbin/fsck/) into fsck wrappers
mode.
A quick overview (the code reflects this):
* Documentation changed to reflect fsck_ffs instead of fsck
* Simply acts on a single filesystem, doesn't try to do any multiple filesystem
magic - this is done by the fsck wrappers now
And then specific to fsck_ffs:
* link to /sbin/fsck_4.2bsd and /sbin/fsck_ufs. This is because right now
the filesystem is of type ufs not ffs, and that during autodetection the
labeltype rather than the VFS type is used - this is because when doing
an autodetection of filesystem type in the fsck wrapper program, it does
not have any link between label type (4.2bsd, vinum, etc) and VFS string.
Note that this shouldn't break a build since the required buildworld Makefile
magic and import of the fsck wrapper code into src/sbin/fsck/ will happen
in a seperate commit.

or __pure2 where it wasn't already done, except in math.h where use
of __pure was mostly wrong.
