I am working on merging a shared locking mechanism into ipfw which
should take care of this problem, but it still requires a bit more
testing and review.
1) ginode() is passed a cylinder group number and inode number. The inode
number is relative to the cg. Use this relative number rather than the
absolute inode number when searching the cg inode bitmap to see if the inode
is allocated. Using the absolute number quickly runs the check off the end
of the array and causes invalid inodes to be referenced.
2) ginode() checks the absolute indoe number to make sure that it is greater
than ROOTINO. However, the caller loops through all of the possible inode
numbers and directly passes in values that are < ROOTINO. Instead of halting
the program with an error, just return NULL.
3) When allocating new cylinder groups, growfs was initializing all of the
inodes in the group regardless of this only being required for UFS1. Not
doing this for UFS2 provides a significant performance increase.
These fixes allow growing a filesystem beyond a trivial amount and have
been tested to grow an 8GB filesystem to 1.9TB. Much more testing would
be appreciated.

Pass 4 performed a linear search of this list for each inode in

- Document better what the -C option means.
- The -c option is currently a no-op.
- The -D and -h options do not allow switching between
single/dual console modes and internal/video consoles.
(This used to be true for the old biosdisk boot code,
but now they just force the multiple consoles mode and
serial console, respectively.)
1M blocks and optionally write the read data to a file or disk.
If a read error happens, the 1M block gets put on the end of the worklist
and will be retried with 64k blocksize.
If a read error happens again, the 64k block gets put at the end of the
worklist and will be retried with single sector reads.

standing ability to list a non-existant device in /etc/ttys to keep it
from dying. This is a documented feature of init(8):
The init utility can also be used to keep arbitrary daemons running,
automatically restarting them if they die. In this case, the first field
in the ttys(5) file must not reference the path to a configured device
node and will be passed to the daemon as the final argument on its com-
mand line. This is similar to the facility offered in the AT&T System V
UNIX /etc/inittab.
So rather than fix the man page to 'break' this feature, back out the change.
At the time this change was made, people felt that the spamage from
getty was annoying on headless consoles. Andrew Gallatin noted:

and we went off and applied this hack rather than fixing getty to
sleep forever when it gets an unknown device, as was Andrew's other
suggestion. Since it breaks things, I'm off to do that instead.

After this change it should be possible to use very big md(4) devices.
- Clean up and simplify the code a bit.
- Use humanize_number(3) to print size of md(4) devices.
- Add 't' suffix which stands for terabyte.
- Make '-S' to really work with all types of devices.
- Other minor changes.

contain O_UID, O_GID and O_JAIL opcodes, the F_NOT or F_OR logical
operator bits get clobbered. Making it impossible to use the ``NOT'' or
``OR'' operators with uid, gid and jail based constraints.
The ipfw_insn instruction template contains a ``len'' element which
stores two pieces of information, the size of the instruction
(in 32-bit words) in the low 6 bits of "len" with the 2 remaining
bits to implement OR and NOT.
The current code clobbers the OR and NOT bits by initializing the
``len'' element to the size, rather than OR'ing the bits. This change
fixes this by changing the initialization of cmd->len to an OR operation
for the O_UID, O_GID and O_JAIL opcodes.
This may be a MFC candidate for RELENG_5.
