Implement ffs_getpages_async(), which when possible calls the asynchronous
flavor of the generic pager's getpages function. When the underlying
block size is larger than the system page size, however, it will invoke
the (synchronous) buffer cache pager, followed by a call to the client
completion routine. This retains true asynchronous completion in the most
common (block size <= page size) case, which is important for the performance
of the new sendfile(2). The behavior in the larger block size case mirrors
the default implementation of VOP_GETPAGES_ASYNC, which most other
filesystems use anyway as they do not override the getpages_async method.

shorter than its size resulting in a hole as its final block (which
is a violation of the invarients of the UFS filesystem).
Soft updates will always ensure that the file size is correct when
writing inodes to disk for files that contain only direct block
pointers. However soft updates does not roll back sizes for files
with indirect blocks that it has set to unallocated because their
contents have not yet been written to disk. Hence, the file can
appear to have a hole at its end because the block pointer has been
rolled back to zero when its inode was written to disk. Thus,
fsck_ffs calculates the last allocated block in the file. For files
that extend into indirect blocks, fsck_ffs checks for a size past
the last allocated block of the file and if that is found, shortens
the file to reference the last allocated block thus avoiding having
it reference a hole at its end.

January 2018 changes -r327723 and -r327821. The softdep_bp_to_mp()
function failed to include VFIFO as one of the valid cases.
Although fifo's do not allocate blocks in the filesystem, they will
allocate blocks if they use extended attributes (such as ACLs). Thus,
softdep_bp_to_mp() needs to return a non-NULL mount pointer when
presented with a fifo vnode so that the soft updates write complete
will properly process the soft updates structures associated with the
extended attribute blocks. It was the failure to process these soft
updates structures, thus leaving them hanging off the buffer, which
lead to the "panic: softdep_deallocate_dependencies: dangling deps"

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.

blocks of a file as contiguously as possible. Since the filesystem
does not know how large a file will grow when it is first being
written, it initially places the file in a set of blocks in which
it currently fits. As it grows, it is relocated to areas with
larger contiguous blocks. In this way it saves its large contiguous
sets of blocks for the files that need them and thus avoids
unnecessaily fragmenting its disk space.
We used to skip reallocating the blocks of a file into a contiguous
sequence if the underlying flash device requested BIO_DELETE
notifications, because devices that benefit from BIO_DELETE also
benefit from not moving the data. However, in the algorithm described
above that reallocates the blocks, the destination for the data is
usually moved before the data is written to the initially allocated
location. So we rarely suffer the penalty of extra writes. With
the addition of the consolodation of contiguous blocks into single
BIO_DELETE operations, having fewer but larger contiguous blocks
reduces the number of (slow and expensive) BIO_DELETE operations.
So when doing BIO_DELETE consolodation, we do block reallocation.

When deleting files on filesystems that are stored on flash-memory
(solid-state) disk drives, the filesystem notifies the underlying
disk of the blocks that it is no longer using. The notification
allows the drive to avoid saving these blocks when it needs to
flash (zero out) one of its flash pages. These notifications of
no-longer-being-used blocks are referred to as TRIM notifications.
In FreeBSD these TRIM notifications are sent from the filesystem
to the drive using the BIO_DELETE command.
Until now, the filesystem would send a separate message to the drive
for each block of the file that was deleted. Each Gigabyte of file
size resulted in over 3000 TRIM messages being sent to the drive.
This burst of messages can overwhelm the drive's task queue causing
multiple second delays for read and write requests.
This implementation collects runs of contiguous blocks in the file
and then consolodates them into a single BIO_DELETE command to the
drive. The BIO_DELETE command describes the run of blocks as a
single large block being deleted. Each Gigabyte of file size can
result in as few as two BIO_DELETE commands and is typically less
than ten. Though these larger BIO_DELETE commands take longer to
run, they do not clog the drive task queue, so read and write
commands can intersperse effectively with them.
Though this new feature has been throughly reviewed and tested, it
is being added disabled by default so as to minimize the possibility
of disrupting the upcoming 12.0 release. It can be enabled by running
``sysctl vfs.ffs.dotrimcons=1''. Users are encouraged to test it.
If no problems arise, we will consider requesting that it be enabled
by default for 12.0.

to fix the memory leak that I introduced in r328426. Instead of
trying to clear up the possible memory leak in all the clients, I
ensure that it gets cleaned up in the source (e.g., ffs_sbget ensures
that memory is always freed if it returns an error).
The original change in r328426 was a bit sparse in its description.
So I am expanding on its description here (thanks cem@ and rgrimes@
for your encouragement for my longer commit messages).
In preparation for adding check hashing to superblocks, r328426 is
a refactoring of the code to get the reading/writing of the superblock
into one place. Unlike the cylinder group reading/writing which
ends up in two places (ffs_getcg/ffs_geom_strategy in the kernel
and cgget/cgput in libufs), I have the core superblock functions
just in the kernel (ffs_sbfetch/ffs_sbput in ffs_subr.c which is
already imported into utilities like fsck_ffs as well as libufs to
implement sbget/sbput). The ffs_sbfetch and ffs_sbput functions
take a function pointer to do the actual I/O for which there are
four variants:
ffs_use_bread / ffs_use_bwrite for the in-kernel filesystem
g_use_g_read_data / g_use_g_write_data for kernel geom clients
ufs_use_sa_read for the standalone code (stand/libsa/ufs.c
but not stand/libsa/ufsread.c which is size constrained)
use_pread / use_pwrite for libufs
Uses of these interfaces are in the UFS filesystem, geoms journal &
label, libsa changes, and libufs. They also permeate out into the
filesystem utilities fsck_ffs, newfs, growfs, clri, dump, quotacheck,
fsirand, fstyp, and quot. Some of these utilities should probably be
converted to directly use libufs (like dumpfs was for example), but
there does not seem to be much win in doing so.
