Extend the ino_t, dev_t, nlink_t types to 64-bit ints. Modify
struct dirent layout to add d_off, increase the size of d_fileno
to 64-bits, increase the size of d_namlen to 16-bits, and change
the required alignment. Increase struct statfs f_mntfromname[] and
f_mntonname[] array length MNAMELEN to 1024.
ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.
Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.
Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.
For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.
Update note: strictly follow the instructions in UPDATING. Build
and install the new kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option enabled,
then reboot, and only then install new world.
Credits: The 64-bit inode project, also known as ino64, started life
many years ago as a project by Gleb Kurtsou (gleb). Kirk McKusick
(mckusick) then picked up and updated the patch, and acted as a
flag-waver. Feedback, suggestions, and discussions were carried
by Ed Maste (emaste), John Baldwin (jhb), Jilles Tjoelker (jilles),
and Rick Macklem (rmacklem). Kris Moore (kris) performed an initial
ports investigation followed by an exp-run by Antoine Brodin (antoine).
Essential and all-embracing testing was done by Peter Holm (pho).
The heavy lifting of coordinating all these efforts and bringing the
project to completion were done by Konstantin Belousov (kib).

This both avoids some dependencies on xinstall.host and allows
bootstrapping on older releases to work due to lack of at least 'install -l'

Since METAMODE has been added, sys.mk loads bsd.mkopt.mk which ends load loading
bsd.own.mk which then defines SHLIBDIR before all the Makefile.inc everywhere.

WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to

Similar to libexec/, do the same with lib/. Make WARNS=6 the norm and

Makefile.inc provided by lib/. I'm not going to touch that directory.

prefix) as an argument and mount point path. At the end it has to find
device name file system is stored on, which means when mount point path is
given, it tries to look into /etc/fstab and find special device
corresponding to the given mount point. This is not perfect, because it
doesn't handle the case when file system is mounted by hand and mount point
is given as an argument.
I found this problem while trying to use snapinfo(8), which passes mount
points to the ufs_disk_fillout(3) function, but I had file system mounted
manually, so snapinfo(8) was exiting with the error below:
ufs_disk_fillout: No such file or directory
I modified libufs(3) to handle those arguments (the order is important):
1. special device with /dev/ prefix
2. special device without /dev/ prefix
3. mount point listed in /etc/fstab, directory exists
4. mount point listed in /etc/fstab, directory doesn't exist
5. mount point of a file system mounted by hand

reside in /lib, the .so symlink continues to live /usr/lib so the
toolchain doesn't need to be modified.
