operators) in and near revs.1.169-1.170 (open mode bandaid). This
(or better a proper fix) should have been done before cloning the
bandaid to many other file systems.
- rev.1.42 of ffs_readwrite.c added a special case in ffs_read() for reads
that are initially at EOF, and rev.1.62 of ufs_readwrite.c fixed
timestamp bugs in it. Removal of most of vfs_ioopt made it just and
optimization, and removal of the vm object reference calls made it less
than an optimization. It was cloned in rev.1.94 of ufs_readwrite.c as
part of cloning ffs_extwrite() although it was always less than an
optimization in ffs_extwrite().
- some comments, compound statements and vertical whitespace were vestiges
of dead code.
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
(it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,
ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.

Replace wrong check returned EFBIG with EOVERFLOW handling from POSIX:

ffs_write:
Replace u_int64_t cast with uoff_t cast which is more natural for types

Remove uio_offset and uio_resid checks for negative values, the caller

accurate reporting of multi-terabyte filesystem sizes.
You should build and boot a new kernel BEFORE doing a `make world'
as the new kernel will know about binaries using the old statfs
structure, but an old kernel will not know about the new system
calls that support the new statfs structure. Running an old kernel
after a `make world' will cause programs such as `df' that do a
statfs system call to fail with a bad system call.

those cylinder groups that have at least 75% of the average free
space per cylinder group for that file system are considered as
candidates for the creation of a new directory. The previous formula
for minbfree would set it to zero if the file system was more than
75% full, which allowed cylinder groups with no free space at all
to be chosen as candidates for directory creation, which resulted
in an expensive search for free blocks for each file that was
subsequently created in that directory.
Modify the calculation of minifree in the same way.

call UFS_UPDATE instead of VOP_FSYNC().
- Slightly rewrite the fsync loop to be more lock friendly. We must
acquire the vnode interlock before dropping the mnt lock. We must
also check XLOCK to prevent vclean() races.
- Use LK_INTERLOCK in the vget() in ffs_sync to further prevent vclean()
races.
- Use a local variable to store the results of the nvp == TAILQ_NEXT
test so that we do not access the vp after we've vrele()d it.
- Add an XXX comment about UFS_UPDATE() not being protected by any lock
here. I suspect that it should need the VOP lock.

caller to acquire it. This permits drain_output() to be done atomically
with other operations as well as reducing the number of lock operations.
- Assert that the proper locks are held in drain_output().
- Change getdirtybuf() to accept a mutex as an argument. This mutex is used
to protect the vnode's buf list and the BKGRDWAIT flag. This lock is
dropped when we successfully acquire a buffer and held on return
otherwise. These semantics reduce the number of cumbersome cases in
calling code.
- Pass the mtx from getdirtybuf() into interlocked_sleep() and allow this
mutex to be used as the interlock argument to BUF_LOCK() in the LOCKBUF
case of interlocked_sleep().
- Change the return value of getdirtybuf() to be the resulting locked buffer
or NULL otherwise. This is for callers who pass in a list head that
requires a lock. It is necessary since the lock that protects the list
head must be dropped in getdirtybuf() so that we don't have a lock order

- Adjust all callers of getdirtybuf() to match the new semantics.
- Add a comment in indir_trunc() that points at unlocked access to a buf.
This may also be one of the last instances of incore() in the tree.
- Surround all accesses of the BKGRD{WAIT,INPROG} flags with the vnode

- Don't use the B_LOCKED flag and QUEUE_LOCKED for background write
buffers. Check for the BKGRDINPROG flag before recycling or throwing
away a buffer. We do this instead because it is not safe for us to move
the original buffer to a new queue from the callback on the background
write buffer.
- Remove the B_LOCKED flag and the locked buffer queue. They are no longer
used.
- The vnode interlock is used around checks for BKGRDINPROG where it may
not be strictly necessary. If we hold the buf lock the a back-ground

two of the places where this extra locking is done. A pass should be
done to verify and minimize the locking later.
