and bmsafemap dependency structures in inodedep_lookup() and
bmsafemap_lookup() respectively. The setup of these structures must
be done while holding the soft-dependency mutex. If the inodedep is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the bmsafemap. If the bmsafemap is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the inodedep.
To resolve this problem, bmsafemap_lookup has had a parameter added
that allows a pre-malloc'ed bmsafemap to be passed in so that it does
not need to release the mutex to create a new bmsafemap. The
softdep_setup_inomapdep() routine pre-malloc's a bmsafemap dependency
before acquiring the mutex and starting to build the inodedep with a
call to inodedep_lookup(). The subsequent call to bmsafemap_lookup()
is passed this pre-allocated bmsafemap entry so that it need not
release the mutex if it needs to create a new one.

over just the active vnodes associated with a mount point to replace
MNT_VNODE_FOREACH_ALL in the vfs_msync, ffs_sync_lazy, and qsync
routines.
The vfs_msync routine is run every 30 seconds for every writably
mounted filesystem. It ensures that any files mmap'ed from the
filesystem with modified pages have those pages queued to be
written back to the file from which they are mapped.
The ffs_lazy_sync and qsync routines are run every 30 seconds for
every writably mounted UFS/FFS filesystem. The ffs_lazy_sync routine
ensures that any files that have been accessed in the previous
30 seconds have had their access times queued for updating in the
filesystem. The qsync routine ensures that any files with modified
quotas have those quotas queued to be written back to their
associated quota file.
In a system configured with 250,000 vnodes, less than 1000 are
typically active at any point in time. Prior to this change all
250,000 vnodes would be locked and inspected twice every minute
by the syncer. For UFS/FFS filesystems they would be locked and
inspected six times every minute (twice by each of these three
routines since each of these routines does its own pass over the
vnodes associated with a mount point). With this change the syncer
now locks and inspects only the tiny set of vnodes that are active.

The primary changes are that the user of the interface no longer
needs to manage the mount-mutex locking and that the vnode that
is returned has its mutex locked (thus avoiding the need to check
to see if its is DOOMED or other possible end of life senarios).
To minimize compatibility issues for third-party developers, the
old MNT_VNODE_FOREACH interface will remain available so that this
change can be MFC'ed to 9. Following the MFC to 9, MNT_VNODE_FOREACH

The reason for this update is to prepare for the addition of the
MNT_VNODE_FOREACH_ACTIVE interface that will loop over just the

1% of the vnodes associated with the mount point).

and it is no longer referenced by a user process. The inode for a
file whose name has been removed, but is still referenced at the
time of a crash will still be allocated in the filesystem, but will
have no references (e.g., they will have no names referencing them
from any directory).
With traditional soft updates these unreferenced inodes will be
found and reclaimed when the background fsck is run. When using
journaled soft updates, the kernel must keep track of these inodes
so that it can find and reclaim them during the cleanup process.
Their existence cannot be stored in the journal as the journal only
handles short-term events, and they may persist for days. So, they
are tracked by keeping them in a linked list whose head pointer is
stored in the superblock. The journal tracks them only until their
linked list pointers have been commited to disk. Part of the cleanup
process involves traversing the list of unreferenced inodes and
reclaiming them.
This bug was triggered when confusion arose in the commit steps
of keeping the unreferenced-inode linked list coherent on disk.
Notably, a race between the link() system call adding a link-count
to a file and the unlink() system call removing a link-count to
the file. Here if the unlink() ran after link() had looked up
the file but before link() had incremented the link-count of the
file, the file's link-count would drop to zero before the link()
incremented it back up to one. If the file was referenced by a
user process, the first transition through zero made it appear
that it should be added to the unreferenced-inode list when in
fact it should not have been added. If the new name created by
link() was deleted within a few seconds (with the file still
referenced by a user process) it would legitimately be a candidate
for addition to the unreferenced-inode list. The result was that
there were two attempts to add the same inode to the unreferenced-inode
list which scrambled the unreferenced-inode list's pointers leading
to a panic. The fix is to detect and avoid the false attempt at
adding it to the unreferenced-inode list by having the link()
system call check to see if the link count is zero before it
increments it. If it is, the link() fails with ENOENT (showing that
it has failed the link()/unlink() race).
While tracking down this bug, we have added additional assertions
to detect the problem sooner and also simplified some of the code.

This checkin only adds the setting of the mount point for the

snapshots on UFS filesystems running with journaled soft updates.
This is the first of several bugs that need to be fixed before
removing the restriction added in -r230250 to prevent the use
of snapshots on filesystems running with journaled soft updates.
The deadlock occurs when holding the snapshot lock (snaplk)
and then trying to flush an inode via ffs_update(). We become
blocked by another process trying to flush a different inode
contained in the same inode block that we need. It holds the
inode block for which we are waiting locked. When it tries to
write the inode block, it gets blocked waiting for the our
snaplk when it calls ffs_copyonwrite() to see if the inode
block needs to be copied in our snapshot.
The most obvious place that this deadlock arises is in the
ffs_copyonwrite() routine when it updates critical metadata
in a snapshot and tries to write it out before proceeding.
The fix here is to write the data and indirect block pointer
for the snapshot, but to skip the call to ffs_update() to
write the snapshot inode. To ensure that we will never have
to update a pointer in the inode itself, the ffs_snapshot()
routine that creates the snapshot has to ensure that all the
direct blocks are allocated as part of the creation of the
snapshot.
A less obvious place that this deadlock occurs is when we hold
the snaplk because we are deleting a snapshot. In the course of
doing the deletion, we need to allocate various soft update
dependency structures and allocate some journal space. If we
hit a resource limit while doing this we decrease the resources
in use by flushing out an existing dirty file to get it to give
up the soft dependency resources that it holds. The flush can
cause an ffs_update() to be done on the inode for the file that
we have selected to flush resulting in the same deadlock as
described above when the inode that we have chosen to flush
resides in the same inode block as the snapshot inode that we hold.
The fix is to defer cleaning up any time that the inode on which
we are operating is a snapshot.

the kernel allocated a buffer but did not zero it as it was about
to be completely filled by a uiomove() from the user's buffer.
However, if the uiomove() failed, the old contents of the buffer
could be exposed especially if the file was being mmap'ed. The
fix was to always zero the buffer when it was allocated.
This change first attempts the uiomove() to the newly allocated
(and dirty) buffer and only zeros it if the uiomove() fails. The
effect is to eliminate the gratuitous zeroing of the buffer in
the usual case where the uiomove() successfully fills it.
