low-memory handling solution. However, maxlaunder turns out to be the saving

Write I/O is now pipelined using two sysctls, vfs.lorunningspace and
vfs.hirunningspace. This prevents excessive buffered writes in the
disk queues which cause long (multi-second) delays for reads. It leads
to more stable (less jerky) and generally faster I/O streaming to disk
by allowing required read ops (e.g. for indirect blocks and such) to occur
without interrupting the write stream, amoung other things.
NOTE: eventually, filesystem write I/O pipelining needs to be done on a
per-device basis. At the moment it is globalized.

Previously, the syncer process was the only process in the
system that could process the soft updates background work
list. If enough other processes were adding requests to that
list, it would eventually grow without bound. Because some of
the work list requests require vnodes to be locked, it was
not generally safe to let random processes process the work
list while they already held vnodes locked. By adding a flag
to the work list queue processing function to indicate whether
the calling process could safely lock vnodes, it becomes possible
to co-opt other processes into helping out with the work list.
Now when the worklist gets too large, other processes can safely
help out by picking off those work requests that can be handled
without locking a vnode, leaving only the small number of
requests requiring a vnode lock for the syncer process. With
this change, it appears possible to keep even the nastiest
workloads under control.

Removed most of the hacks that were trying to deal with low-memory
situations prior to now.
The new code is based on the concept that I/O must be able to function in
a low memory situation. All major modules related to I/O (except
networking) have been adjusted to allow allocation out of the system
reserve memory pool. These modules now detect a low memory situation but
rather then block they instead continue to operate, then return resources
to the memory pool instead of cache them or leave them wired.
Code has been added to stall in a low-memory situation prior to a vnode
being locked.
Thus situations where a process blocks in a low-memory condition while
holding a locked vnode have been reduced to near nothing. Not only will
I/O continue to operate, but many prior deadlock conditions simply no
longer exist.
Implement a number of VFS/BIO fixes
(found by Ian): in biodone(), bogus-page replacement code, the loop
was not properly incrementing loop variables prior to a continue
statement. We do not believe this code can be hit anyway but we
aren't taking any chances. We'll turn the whole section into a
panic (as it already is in brelse()) after the release is rolled.
In biodone(), the foff calculation was incorrectly
clamped to the iosize, causing the wrong foff to be calculated
for pages in the case of an I/O error or biodone() called without
initiating I/O. The problem always caused a panic before. Now it
doesn't. The problem is mainly an issue with NFS.
Fixed casts for ~PAGE_MASK. This code worked properly before only
because the calculations use signed arithmatic. Better to properly
extend PAGE_MASK first before inverting it for the 64 bit masking
op.
In brelse(), the bogus_page fixup code was improperly throwing
away the original contents of 'm' when it did the j-loop to
fix the bogus pages. The result was that it would potentially
invalidate parts of the *WRONG* page(!), leading to corruption.
There may still be cases where a background bitmap write is
being duplicated, causing potential corruption. We have identified
a potentially serious bug related to this but the fix is still TBD.
So instead this patch contains a KASSERT to detect the problem
and panic the machine rather then continue to corrupt the filesystem.
The problem does not occur very often.. it is very hard to
reproduce, and it may or may not be the cause of the corruption
people have reported.

is to first write the deleted directory entry to disk, second write
the zero'ed inode to disk, and finally to release the freed blocks
and the inode back to the cylinder-group map. As this ordering
requires two disk writes to occur which are normally spaced about
30 seconds apart (except when memory is under duress), it takes
about a minute from the time that a file is deleted until its inode
and data blocks show up in the cylinder-group map for reallocation.
If a file has had only a brief lifetime (less than 30 seconds from
creation to deletion), neither its inode nor its directory entry
may have been written to disk. If its directory entry has not been
written to disk, then we need not wait for that directory block to
be written as the on-disk directory block does not reference the
inode. Similarly, if the allocated inode has never been written to
disk, we do not have to wait for it to be written back either as
its on-disk representation is still zero'ed out. Thus, in the case
of a short lived file, we can simply release the blocks and inode
to the cylinder-group map immediately. As the inode and its blocks
are released immediately, they are immediately available for other
uses. If they are not released for a minute, then other inodes and
blocks must be allocated for short lived files, cluttering up the
vnode and buffer caches. The previous code was a bit too aggressive
in trying to release the blocks and inode back to the cylinder-group
map resulting in their being made available when in fact the inode
on disk had not yet been zero'ed. This patch takes a more conservative
approach to doing the release which avoids doing the release prematurely.
ufs_vnops.c:
1) i_ino was confused with i_number, so the inode number passed to
VFS_VGET() was usually wrong (usually 0U).
2) ip was dereferenced after vgone() freed it, so the inode number
passed to VFS_VGET() was sometimes not even wrong.
Bug (1) was usually fatal in ext2_mknod(), since ext2fs doesn't have
space for inode 0 on the disk; ino_to_fsba() subtracts 1 from the
inode number, so inode number 0U gives a way out of bounds array
index. Bug(1) was usually harmless in ufs_mknod(); ino_to_fsba()
doesn't subtract 1, and VFS_VGET() reads suitable garbage (all 0's?)
from the disk for the invalid inode number 0U; ufs_mknod() returns
a wrong vnode, but most callers just vput() it; the correct vnode is
eventually obtained by an implicit VFS_VGET() just like it used to be.

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.

From this point vop_no*lock*() functions maintain only interlock lock.
vop_std*lock*() functions maintain built-in v_lock structure using lockmgr().
vop_sharedlock() is compatible with vop_stdunlock(), but maintains a shared

If filesystem wishes to export lockmgr compatible lock, it can put an address

Clean up the debugging code that ensures that no blocks be written
on a filesystem while it is suspended. Snapshots must explicitly

they do not cause a `write on suspended filesystem' panic.
