and make it work more reliably in a number of cases that have
traditionally been troublesome. The new behaviour is:
1) If the filesystem can be determined by the fsid or device,
or uniquely identified by the mountpoint, then just go ahead
and call unmount(2) using the file system ID.
2) Otherwise use fstatfs(2) to resolve the path into a file system
ID (checking with stat(2) that it is a filesystem root directory).
Case 2 can potentially block if an NFS server is down, but it can
always be avoided by using an unambiguous specification. It handles
all the hard cases such as symlinks and mismatches between the mount
list and reality. For example, if a filesystem was mounted as /mnt
inside a chroot, it will show up in the mount list as /mnt, but now
you can unmount it from outside the chroot with "umount /chroot_path/mnt".
ID for each file system in addition to the normal information.
In umount(8), accept filesystem IDs as well as the usual device and
path names. This makes it possible to unambiguously specify which
file system is to be unmounted even when two or more file systems
share the same device and mountpoint names (e.g. NFS mounts from
the same export into different chroots).
Suggested by: Dan Nelson <dnelson@allantgroup.com>
of by mount point, umount had to take care not to unmount the wrong
file system if another file system was covering the requested one.
Now that the file system to unmount is specified to the kernel using
the filesystem ID, this confusion cannot occur, so remove the code
that checked for it.
Allow set 31 to be used for rules other than 65535.
Set 31 is still special because rules belonging to it are not deleted
by the "ipfw flush" command, but must be deleted explicitly with
"ipfw delete set 31" or by individual rule numbers.
This implement a flexible form of "persistent rules" which you might
want to have available even after an "ipfw flush".
Note that this change does not violate POLA, because you could not
use set 31 in a ruleset before this change.

and minor code cleanups.
* make the code compile with WARNS=5 (at least on i386), mostly
by adding 'const' specifier and replacing "void *" with "char *"
in places where pointer arithmetic was used.
This also spotted a few places where invalid tests (e.g. uint < 0)
were used.
* support ranges in "list" and "show" commands. Now you can say
ipfw show 100-1000 4000-8000
which is very convenient when you have large rulesets.
* implement comments in ipfw commands. These are implemented in the
kernel as O_NOP commands (which always match) whose body contains
the comment string. In userland, a comment is a C++-style comment:
ipfw add allow ip from me to any // i can talk to everybody
The choice of '//' versus '#' is somewhat arbitrary, but because
the preprocessor/readfile part of ipfw used to strip away '#',
I did not want to change this behaviour.
If a rule only contains a comment
ipfw add 1000 // this rule is just a comment
then it is stored as a 'count' rule (this is also to remind
the user that scanning through a rule is expensive).
* improve handling of flags (still to be completed).
ipfw_main() was written thinking of 'one rule per ipfw invocation',
and so flags are set and never cleared. With readfile/preprocessor
support, this changes and certain flags should be reset on each
line. For the time being, only fix handling of '-a' which
differentiates the "list" and "show" commands.
* rework the preprocessor support -- ipfw_main() already had most
of the parsing code, so i have moved in there the only missing
bit (stripping away '#' and comments) and removed the parsing
from ipfw_readfile().
Also, add some more options (such as -c, -N, -S) to the readfile
section.

which exploits the new capabilities of O_IP_SRC_MASK/O_IP_DST_MASK
* Allow spaces after commas to make lists of addresses more readable.
1.2.3.4, 5.6.7.8/30, 9.10.11.12/22, 12.12.12.13, ...

extra leading/trailing whitespace as below:
ipfw "-q add allow ip from 1.2.3.4 to 5.6.7.8, 9.10.11.23 "

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.

with a new implementation that has a mostly reentrant "addchar"
routine, supports multiple message buffers in the kernel, and hides
the implementation details from callers.
The new code uses a kind of sequence number to represend the current
read and write positions in the buffer. This approach (suggested
mainly by bde) permits the read and write pointers to be maintained
separately, which reduces the number of atomic operations that are
required. The "mostly reentrant" above refers to the way that while
it is now always safe to have any number of concurrent writers,
readers could see the message buffer after a writer has advanced
the pointers but before it has witten the new character.

(2) When converting CTLTYPE_INT, _UINT, _LONG, and _ULONG, check the
end pointer generated by strtol() and strtoul() rather than
discarding it. Reject the string if either none of the string
was useful for conversion to an integer, or if there was
trailing garbage.

with UFS1, the UFS1 superblocks were not deleted. This allowed any
RELENG_4 (or other non-UFS2-aware) fsck to think it knew how to "fix"
the file system, resulting in severe data scrambling.
This patch is a more advanced version than the one originally submitted.
Lukas improved it based on feedback from Kirk, and testing by me. It
blanks all UFS1 superblocks (if any) during a UFS2 newfs, thereby causing
fsck's that are not UFS2 aware to generate the "SEARCH FOR ALTERNATE
SUPER-BLOCK FAILED" message, and exit without damaging the fs.
