This document reflects the use of
|
|
.I fsck_ffs
|
|
with the 4.2BSD and 4.3BSD file system organization. This
|
|
is a revision of the
|
|
original paper written by
|
|
T. J. Kowalski.

|
|
File System Check Program (\fIfsck_ffs\fR)
|
|
is an interactive file system check and repair program.
|
|
.I Fsck_ffs
|
|
uses the redundant structural information in the
|
|
UNIX file system to perform several consistency checks.
|
|
If an inconsistency is detected, it is reported
|
|
to the operator, who may elect to fix or ignore
|
|
each inconsistency.
|
|
These inconsistencies result from the permanent interruption
|
|
of the file system updates, which are performed every
|
|
time a file is modified.
|
|
Unless there has been a hardware failure,
|
|
.I fsck_ffs
|
|
is able to repair corrupted file systems
|
|
using procedures based upon the order in which UNIX honors
|
|
these file system update requests.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The purpose of this document is to describe the normal updating
|
|
of the file system,
|
|
to discuss the possible causes of file system corruption,
|
|
and to present the corrective actions implemented
|
|
by
|
|
.I fsck_ffs.
|
|
Both the program and the interaction between the
|
|
program and the operator are described.
