EINTEGRITY was previously documented as a UFS-specific error for
mount(2). This documents EINTEGRITY as a filesystem-independent error
that may be reported by the backing store of a filesystem.
While here, document EIO as a filesystem-independent error for both
mount(2) and posix_fadvise(2). EIO was previously only documented for
UFS for mount(2).

when a superblock check-hash error is detected. This change clarifies
a mount that failed due to media hardware failures (EIO) from a mount
that failed due to media errors (EINTEGRITY) that can be corrected by
running fsck(8).

The two options are
* nocover/cover: Prevent/allow mounting over an existing root mountpoint.
E.g., "mount -t ufs -o nocover /dev/sd1a /usr/local" will fail if /usr/local
is already a mountpoint.
* emptydir/noemptydir: Prevent/allow mounting on a non-empty directory.
E.g., "mount -t ufs -o emptydir /dev/sd1a /usr" will fail.
Neither of these options is intended to be a default, for historical and
compatibility reasons.

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

specified directory is not found in the mount list. Before the
MNT_BYFSID changes, unmount(2) used to return ENOENT for a nonexistent
path and EINVAL for a non-mountpoint, but we can no longer distinguish
between these cases. Of the two error codes, EINVAL was more likely
to occur in practice, and it was the only one of the two that was
documented.
Update the manual page to match the current behaviour.

system by specifying the file system ID instead of a path. Use this
by default in umount(8). This avoids the need to perform any vnode
operations to look up the mount point, so it makes it possible to
unmount a file system whose root vnode cannot be looked up (e.g.
due to a dead NFS server, or a file system that has become detached
from the hierarchy because an underlying file system was unmounted).
It also provides an unambiguous way to specify which file system is
to be unmunted.
Since the ability to unmount using a path name is retained only for
compatibility, that case now just uses a simple string comparison
of the supplied path against f_mntonname of each mounted file system.

to clarify which system call accepts which arguments. Previously
the manual page gave the impression that calling unmount() with
flags of (MNT_FORCE | MNT_UPDATE | MNT_RDONLY) would downgrade a
read-write mount to read-only, which is clearly untrue; to do that,
these flags should be passed to mount() instead.
Stop calling system calls "function calls".
Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".
When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

Add an option to the way UFS works dependent on the SUID bit of directories
This changes makes things a whole lot simpler on systems running as
fileservers for PCs and MACS. to enable the new code you must
1/ enable option SUIDDIR on the kernel.
2/ mount the filesystem with option suiddir.
hopefully this makes it difficult enough for people to
do this accidentally.
see the new chmod(2) man page for detailed info.
Ever since I first say the way the mount flags were used I've hated the
fact that modes, and events, internal and exported, and short-term
and long term flags are all thrown together. Finally it's annoyed me enough..
This patch to the entire FreeBSD tree adds a second mount flag word
to the mount struct. it is not exported to userspace. I have moved
some of the non exported flags over to this word. this means that we now
have 8 free bits in the mount flags. There are another two that might
well move over, but which I'm not sure about.
The only user visible change would have been in pstat -v, except
that davidg has disabled it anyhow.
I'd still like to move the state flags and the 'command' flags
apart from each other.. e.g. MNT_FORCE really doesn't have the
same semantics as MNT_RDONLY, but that's left for another day.
