How it works:
--
Basically ifs is a copy of ffs, overriding some vfs/vnops. (Yes, hack.)
I didn't see the need in duplicating all of sys/ufs/ffs to get this
off the ground.
File creation is done through a special file - 'newfile' . When newfile
is called, the system allocates and returns an inode. Note that newfile
is done in a cloning fashion:
fd = open("newfile", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0644);
fstat(fd, &st);
printf("new file is %d\n", (int)st.st_ino);
Once you have created a file, you can open() and unlink() it by its returned
inode number retrieved from the stat call, ie:
fd = open("5", O_RDWR);
The creation permissions depend entirely if you have write access to the
root directory of the filesystem.
To get the list of currently allocated inodes, VOP_READDIR has been added
which returns a directory listing of those currently allocated.

What this entails:
* patching conf/files and conf/options to include IFS as a new compile
option (and since ifs depends upon FFS, include the FFS routines)
* An entry in i386/conf/NOTES indicating IFS exists and where to go for
an explanation
* Unstaticize a couple of routines in src/sys/ufs/ffs/ which the IFS
routines require (ffs_mount() and ffs_reload())
* a new bunch of routines in src/sys/ufs/ifs/ which implement the IFS
routines. IFS replaces some of the vfsops, and a handful of vnops -
most notably are VFS_VGET(), VOP_LOOKUP(), VOP_UNLINK() and VOP_READDIR().
Any other directory operation is marked as invalid.
What this results in:
* an IFS partition's create permissions are controlled by the perm/ownership of
the root mount point, just like a normal directory
* Each inode has perm and ownership too
* IFS does *NOT* mean an FFS partition can be opened per inode. This is a
completely seperate filesystem here
* Softupdates doesn't work with IFS, and really I don't think it needs it.
Besides, fsck's are FAST. (Try it :-)
* Inodes 0 and 1 aren't allocatable because they are special (dump/swap IIRC).
Inode 2 isn't allocatable since UFS/FFS locks all inodes in the system against
this particular inode, and unravelling THAT code isn't trivial. Therefore,
useful inodes start at 3.
Enjoy, and feedback is definitely appreciated!
mount_ifs: repocopy of sbin/mount, with most of the intelligence ripped out
and "ufs" replaced with "ifs" in the right places. It will only
mount a single filesystem, rather than the -t <type> magic that
our real mount does.
fsck_ifs: repocopy of sbin/fsck_ffs, but the directory structure stuff
(pass2 and some refcount checks) has been #ifdef'ed out.
src/sbin/Makefile: Build these two utilities
There is probably cruft code left in both which can be removed at a later
date, especially in mount_ifs, but I trust that people will not try
mount_ifs -a ..
Note: there are no man pages installed for these two commands as I haven't
actually written them yet.
thread switches should be on par with that under scheduler
activations.
o Timing is achieved through the use of a fixed interval
timer (ITIMER_PROF) to count scheduling ticks instead
of retrieving the time-of-day upon every thread switch
and calculating elapsed real time.
o Polling for I/O readiness is performed once for each
scheduling tick instead of every thread switch.
o The non-signal saving/restoring versions of setjmp/longjmp
are used to save and restore thread contexts. This may
allow the removal of _THREAD_SAFE macros from setjmp()
and longjmp() - needs more investigation.
Change signal handling so that signals are handled in the
context of the thread that is receiving the signal. When
signals are dispatched to a thread, a special signal handling
frame is created on top of the target threads stack. The
frame contains the threads saved state information and a new
context in which the thread can run. The applications signal
handler is invoked through a wrapper routine that knows how
to restore the threads saved state and unwind to previous
frames.
Fix interruption of threads due to signals. Some states
were being improperly interrupted while other states were
not being interrupted. This should fix several PRs.
Signal handlers, which are invoked as a result of a process
signal (not by pthread_kill()), are now called with the
code (or siginfo_t if SA_SIGINFO was set in sa_flags) and
sigcontext_t as received from the process signal handler.
Modify the search for a thread to which a signal is delivered.
The search algorithm is now:
o First thread found in sigwait() with signal in wait mask.
o First thread found sigsuspend()'d on the signal.
o Current thread if signal is unmasked.
o First thread found with signal unmasked.
Collapse machine dependent support into macros defined in
pthread_private.h. These should probably eventually be moved
into separate MD files.
Change the range of settable priorities to be compliant with
POSIX (0-31). The threads library uses higher priorities
internally for real-time threads (not yet implemented) and
threads executing signal handlers. Real-time threads and
threads running signal handlers add 64 and 32, respectively,
to a threads base priority.
Some other small changes and cleanups.

u_int64_t flag field, bounding the number of capabilities at 64,
but substantially cleaning up capability logic (there are currently
43 defined capabilities).
o Heads up to anyone actually using capabilities: the constant
assignments for various capabilities have been redone, so any
persistent binary capability stores (i.e., '$posix1e.cap' EA
backing files) must be recreated. If you have one of these,
you'll know about it, so if you have no idea what this means,
don't worry.
o Update libposix1e to reflect this new definition, fixing the
exposed functions that directly manipulate the flags fields.

<sys/stat.h> before using any of the fh functions although this is
only necessary for dereferencing the "struct stat *" arg of fhstat(),

Fixed unsorting of user prototypes in rev.1.78.
1. Don't include <sys/conf.h> in userland. It is not used, and including it
without including its prerequisite <sys/time.h> should have broken the
world.
2. Don't include <sys/mount.h>. It is not used, except in -current it
bogusly includes <sys/stat.h> which bogusly includes <sys/time.h> and
thus accidentally provides the prerequisite in (1).
