as we are just going to print an error and fall through to a full fsck.
Instead, just run a full fsck.

directory entries that is caused by uninitialized directory entry
padding written to the disk. It can be viewed by any user with read
access to that directory. Up to 3 bytes of kernel stack are disclosed
per file entry, depending on the the amount of padding the kernel
needs to pad out the entry to a 32 bit boundry. The offset in the
kernel stack that is disclosed is a function of the filename size.
Furthermore, if the user can create files in a directory, this 3
byte window can be expanded 3 bytes at a time to a 254 byte window
with 75% of the data in that window exposed. The additional exposure
is done by removing the entry, creating a new entry with a 4-byte
longer name, extracting 3 more bytes by reading the directory, and
repeating until a 252 byte name is created.
This exploit works in part because the area of the kernel stack
that is being disclosed is in an area that typically doesn't change
that often (perhaps a few times a second on a lightly loaded system),
and these file creates and unlinks themselves don't overwrite the
area of kernel stack being disclosed.
It appears that this bug originated with the creation of the Fast
File System in 4.1b-BSD (Circa 1982, more than 36 years ago!), and
is likely present in every Unix or Unix-like system that uses
UFS/FFS. Amazingly, nobody noticed until now.
This update also adds the -z flag to fsck_ffs to have it scrub
the leaked information in the name padding of existing directories.
It only needs to be run once on each UFS/FFS filesystem after a
patched kernel is installed and running.

check hash to the filesystem inodes. Access attempts to files
associated with an inode with an invalid check hash will fail with
EINVAL (Invalid argument). Access is reestablished after an fsck
is run to find and validate the inodes with invalid check-hashes.
This check avoids a class of filesystem panics related to corrupted
inodes. The hash is done using crc32c.
Note this check-hash is for the inode itself and not any of its
indirect blocks. Check-hash validation may be extended to also
cover indirect block pointers, but that will be a separate (and
more costly) feature.
Check hashes are added only to UFS2 and not to UFS1 as UFS1 is
primarily used in embedded systems with small memories and low-powered
processors which need as light-weight a filesystem as possible.

When the fsck_ffs program cannot fully repair a file system, it will
output the message PLEASE RERUN FSCK. However, it does not exit with a
non-zero status in this case (contradicting the man page claim that it
"exits with 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs." The fsck
rc-script (when running "fsck -y") tests the status from fsck (which
passes along the exit status from fsck_ffs) and issues a "stop_boot"
if the status fails. However, this is not effective since fsck_ffs can
return zero even on (some) errors. Effectively, it is left to a later
step in the boot process when the file systems are mounted to detect
the still-unclean file system and stop the boot.
This change modifies fsck_ffs so that when it cannot fully repair the
file system and issues the PLEASE RERUN FSCK message it also exits
with a non-zero status.
While here, the fsck_ffs man page has also been updated to document
the failing exit status codes used by fsck_ffs. Previously, only exit
status 7 was documented. Some of these exit statuses are tested for in
the fsck rc-script, so they are clearly depended upon and deserve
documentation.

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.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same

Maybe this case is impossible. Either way, when attempting to "/dev/"-prefix a
non-global device name, check that we do not overrun the f_mntfromname buffer.
In this case, truncating (with strlcpy or similar) would not be useful, since
the f_mntfromname result of getmntpt() is passed directly to open(2) later.

that was built before ffs grew support for TRIM, your filesystem will have
plenty of free blocks that the flash chip doesn't know are free, so it
can't take advantage of them for wear leveling. Once you've upgraded your
kernel, you enable TRIM on the filesystem (tunefs -t enable), then run
fsck_ffs -E on it before mounting it.
I tested this patch by half-filling an mdconfig'ed filesystem image,
running fsck_ffs -E on it, then verifying that the contents were not
damaged by comparing them to a pristine copy using rsync's checksum
functionality. There is no reliable way to test it on real hardware.

robust. With these changes fsck is now able to detect and reliably
rebuild corrupted cylinder group maps. The -D option is no longer
necessary as it has been replaced by a prompt asking whether the
corrupted cylinder group should be rebuilt and doing so when requested.
These actions are only offered and taken when running fsck in manual
mode. Corrupted cylinder groups found during preen mode cause the fsck
to fail.
Add the -r option to free up excess unused inodes. Decreasing the
number of preallocated inodes reduces the running time of future
runs of fsck and frees up space that can allocated to files. The -r
option is ignored when running in preen mode.

filesystem that is checked in background. Create the snapshot in this
directory rather than in the root. There are two benefits:
1) For terabyte-sized filesystems, the snapshot may require many
minutes to build. Although the filesystem will not be suspended
during most of the snapshot build, the snapshot file itself is
locked during the entire snapshot build period. Thus, if it is
accessed during the period that it is being built, the process
trying to access it will block holding its containing directory
locked. If the snapshot is in the root, the root will lock and
the system will come to a halt until the snapshot finishes. By
putting the snapshot in a subdirectory, it is out of the likely
path of any process traversing through the root and hence much
less likely to cause a lock race to the root.
2) The dump program is usually run by a non-root user running with
operator group privilege. Such a user is typically not permitted
to create files in the root of a filesystem. By having a directory
in group operator with group write access available, such a user
will be able to create a snapshot there. Having the dump program
create its snapshot in a subdirectory below the root will benefit
from point (1) as well.
