Rather than trying to shoehorn flags into the requested superblock
address, create a separate flags parameter to the ffs_sbget()
function in sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_subr.c. The ffs_sbget() function is
used both in the kernel and in user-level utilities through export
to the sbget() function in the libufs(3) library (see sbget(3)
for details). The kernel uses ffs_sbget() when mounting UFS
filesystems, in the glabel(8) and gjournal(8) GEOM utilities,
and in the standalone library used when booting the system
from a UFS root filesystem.
The ffs_sbget() function reads the superblock located at the byte
offset specified by its sblockloc parameter. The value UFS_STDSB
may be specified for sblockloc to request that the standard
location for the superblock be read.
The two existing options are now flags:
UFS_NOHASHFAIL will note if the check hash is wrong but will still
return the superblock. This is used by the bootstrap code to
give the system a chance to come up so that fsck can be run to
correct the problem.
UFS_NOMSG indicates that superblock inconsistency error messages
should not be printed. It is used by programs like fsck that
want to print their own error message and programs like glabel(8)
that just want to know if a UFS filesystem exists on a partition.
One additional flag is added:
UFS_NOCSUM causes only the superblock itself to be returned, but does
not read in any auxiliary data structures like the cylinder group
summary information. It is used by clients like glabel(8) that
just want to check for possible filesystem types. Using UFS_NOCSUM
skips the superblock checks for csum data which allows superblocks
that have corrupted csum data to be read and used.
The validate_sblock() function checks that the superblock has not
been corrupted in a way that can crash or hang the system. Unless
the UFS_NOMSG flag is specified, it will print out any errors that
it finds. Prior to this commit, validate_sblock() returned as soon
as it found an inconsistency so would print at most one message.
It now does all its checks so when UFS_NOMSG has not been specified
will print out everything that it finds inconsistent.

Make sys/buf.h, sys/pipe.h, sys/fs/devfs/devfs*.h headers usable in

Unhide more material from sys/mount.h and sys/ufs/ufs/inode.h,

Remove unacceptable hack from usr.sbin/makefs which relied on sys/buf.h

superblock has a check-hash error, an error message noting the
superblock check-hash failure is printed and the mount fails. The
administrator then runs fsck to repair the filesystem and when
successful, the filesystem can once again be mounted.
This approach fails if the filesystem in question is a root filesystem
from which you are trying to boot. Here, the loader fails when trying
to access the filesystem to get the kernel to boot. So it is necessary
to allow the loader to ignore the superblock check-hash error and make
a best effort to read the kernel. The filesystem may be suffiently
corrupted that the read attempt fails, but there is no harm in trying
since the loader makes no attempt to write to the filesystem.
Once the kernel is loaded and starts to run, it attempts to mount its
root filesystem. Once again, failure means that it breaks to its prompt
to ask where to get its root filesystem. Unless you have an alternate
root filesystem, you are stuck.
Since the root filesystem is initially mounted read-only, it is
safe to make an attempt to mount the root filesystem with the failed
superblock check-hash. Thus, when asked to mount a root filesystem
with a failed superblock check-hash, the kernel prints a warning
message that the root filesystem superblock check-hash needs repair,
but notes that it is ignoring the error and proceeding. It does
mark the filesystem as needing an fsck which prevents it from being
enabled for writing until fsck has been run on it. The net effect
is that the reboot fails to single user, but at least at that point
the administrator has the tools at hand to fix the problem.

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

to a remote machine, the fact that the dump date is stored with
each header (inode) record makes rsync significantly less efficient
than necessary. This also applies to inode access times when they
are not important data to retain. When implementing an offsite
backup solution of this type, these dates in particular are not
important, especially if it prevents effective offsite backups.

of trying to directly create the snapshot itself. This change allows
users logged into the system as operator to run live dumps.
Note that dump no longer tries to create the snapshot in the root of
the filesystem, but rather in a .snap directory in the root of the
filesystem. The reason is that the operator is usually not permitted
to write into the root of the filesystem. The newfs command and
background fsck have both been modified to create a .snap directory
in the root of the filesystem, but if neither of these have been run,
then the .snap directory must be created manually by the superuser
before a live dump can be run. The .snap directory should be owned
by user root and group operator and set to mode 770.

1024-byte boundaries. For many years this was a reasonable
assumption. However, in recent years we have begun seeing
devices with 2048-byte sectors. These devices return errors
when dump tries to read starting in the middle of a sector
or when it tries to read only the first half of a sector.
Rather than change the native block size used by dump (and
thus create an incompatible dump format), this fix checks
for transfer requests that start and/or end on a non-sector
boundary. When such a read is detected, the new code reads
the entire sector and copies out just the part that dump
needs.

This will *greatly* improve dump performance at the cost of possibly
missing filesystem changes that occur between passes, and does a fairly
good job making up for the loss of buffered block devices. Caching is disabled
by default to retain historical behavior.
In tests, dump performance improved by about 40% when dumping / or /usr.
Beware that dump forks and the cache may wind up being larger then you
specify, but a more complex shared memory implementation would not produce
results that are all that much better so I kept it simple for now.

a snapshot of the filesystem and then does a dump of the snapshot.
The snapshot is removed when the dump is complete.
Also add an operator warning that the `L' option should be used
if dump is run on a live filesystem without the `L' option being
specified. The alternative would be to silently use a snapshot

dump semantics seemed too drastic at this time.
