Long ago, bread() set b_blkno to the disk block number as a side effect
of doing physical i/o (or it just retained the setting from when the
i/o was done). The setting is lost when buffers go away and then are
reconsituted from VM. bread() originally compensated by doing a
VOP_BMAP() to recover b_blkno, but this was no good since it sometimes
caused extra i/o or even deadlock for bread()ing metadata to do the
bmap. This was fixed in vfs_bio.c 1.33 (1995/03/03) and ffs_balloc.c
1.5, etc., by removing the VOP_BMAP() from bread() and breadn(), and
changing all (?) places that used b_blkno to set it if necessary.
ext2fs was not imported until later in 1995 and was still depending on
the old behaviour of bread() in at least ext2_balloc(). This caused
filesystem and file corruption by clobbering direct block numbers in
inodes.
by the inactive routine. Because the freeing causes the filesystem
to be modified, the close must be held up during periods when the
filesystem is suspended.
For snapshots to be consistent across crashes, they must write
blocks that they copy and claim those written blocks in their
on-disk block pointers before the old blocks that they referenced
can be allowed to be written.
Close a loophole that allowed unwritten blocks to be skipped when
doing ffs_sync with a request to wait for all I/O activity to be
completed.
Traditionally, fsck is invoked before the filesystems are mounted
and all checks are done to completion at that time. If background
checking is available, fsck is invoked twice. It is first invoked
at the traditional time, before the filesystems are mounted, with
the -F flag to do checking on all the filesystems that cannot do
background checking. It is then invoked a second time, after the
system has completed going multiuser, with the -B flag to do checking
on all the filesystems that can do background checking. Unlike
the foreground checking, the background checking is started
asynchonously so that other system activity can proceed even on
the filesystems that are being checked.
At the moment, only the fast filesystem supports background checking.
To be able to do background checking, a filesystem must have been
running with soft updates, not have been marked as needing a
foreground check, and be mounted and writable when the background
check is to be done (i.e., not listed as `noauto' in /etc/fstab).
These changes are the final piece needed to support background
filesystem checking. They will not have any effect until you update
your /etc/rc to invoke fsck in its new mode of operation. I am
still playing around with exactly what those changes should be
and should be committing them later this week.

This makes the "struct netexport *" paramter to the vfs_export

Consequently that all non-stacking filesystems can use

At the same time, make it a pointer to a struct netexport

filesystem needs foreground checking (usually at boot time) or
can defer to background checking (after the system is up and running).
See the manual page, fsck_ffs(8), for details on the -F and -B options.
These options are primarily intended for use by the fsck front end.
All output is directed to stdout so that the output is coherent

front end that allows either a device or a mount point to be
specified as the argument to be checked.
structure. This field keeps track of how many levels deep we are nested
into the kernel. The nesting level is bumped at the start of a trap,
interrupt, syscall, or exception and is decremented on return. This is
used to detect the case when the kernel is returning back to a kernel
context in exception_return(). If we are returning to the kernel we need
to update the globaldata pointer register saved in the stack frame in case
we have switched CPU's between taking the initial interrupt that saved the
frame and returning. If we don't do this fixup it is possible for a CPU to
use the wrong per-cpu data. On UP systems this is not a problem, so the
code is conditional on SMP.
A count was used instead of simply checking the process status register in
the frame during exception_return() since there are critical sections at
the very start and end of a trap, exception, or interrupt from userland in
which we could trash the t7 register being used in userland. The counter
is incremented after adn before these critical sections respectively so
that we will not overwrite the saved t7 register if we are interrupted
during one of these critical sections.
Set LINT to the obj path, since we need to use the new lint's features
to create .ln files. We do not want to use the installed version for that,
since that might create files according to the old lint.
This is still a work in progress to clean this all up, but it gets
through buildworld, which was the problem at hand.
