The fdatasync() description in POSIX specifies that
all I/O operations shall be completed as defined for synchronized I/O
data integrity completion.
and then the explanation of Synchronized I/O Data Integrity Completion says
The write is complete only when the data specified in the write
request is successfully transferred and all file system
information required to retrieve the data is successfully
transferred.
For UFS this means that all pointers must be on disk. Indirect
pointers already contribute to the list of dirty data blocks, so only
direct blocks and root pointers to indirect blocks, both of which
reside in the inode block, should be taken care of. In ffs_balloc(),
mark the inode with the new flag IN_IBLKDATA that specifies that
ffs_syncvnode(DATA_ONLY) needs a call to ffs_update() to flush the
inode block.

the underlying media fails or becomes inaccessible. For example
when a USB flash memory card hosting a UFS filesystem is unplugged.
The strategy for handling disk I/O errors when soft updates are
enabled is to stop writing to the disk of the affected file system
but continue to accept I/O requests and report that all future
writes by the file system to that disk actually succeed. Then
initiate an asynchronous forced unmount of the affected file system.
There are two cases for disk I/O errors:
- ENXIO, which means that this disk is gone and the lower layers
of the storage stack already guarantee that no future I/O to
this disk will succeed.
- EIO (or most other errors), which means that this particular
I/O request has failed but subsequent I/O requests to this
disk might still succeed.
For ENXIO, we can just clear the error and continue, because we
know that the file system cannot affect the on-disk state after we
see this error. For EIO or other errors, we arrange for the geom_vfs
layer to reject all future I/O requests with ENXIO just like is
done when the geom_vfs is orphaned. In both cases, the file system
code can just clear the error and proceed with the forcible unmount.
This new treatment of I/O errors is needed for writes of any buffer
that is involved in a dependency. Most dependencies are described
by a structure attached to the buffer's b_dep field. But some are
created and processed as a result of the completion of the dependencies
attached to the buffer.
Clearing of some dependencies require a read. For example if there
is a dependency that requires an inode to be written, the disk block
containing that inode must be read, the updated inode copied into
place in that buffer, and the buffer then written back to disk.
Often the needed buffer is already in memory and can be used. But
if it needs to be read from the disk, the read will fail, so we
fabricate a buffer full of zeroes and pretend that the read succeeded.
This zero'ed buffer can be updated and written back to disk.
The only case where a buffer full of zeros causes the code to do
the wrong thing is when reading an inode buffer containing an inode
that still has an inode dependency in memory that will reinitialize
the effective link count (i_effnlink) based on the actual link count
(i_nlink) that we read. To handle this case we now store the i_nlink
value that we wrote in the inode dependency so that it can be
restored into the zero'ed buffer thus keeping the tracking of the
inode link count consistent.
Because applications depend on knowing when an attempt to write
their data to stable storage has failed, the fsync(2) and msync(2)
system calls need to return errors if data fails to be written to
stable storage. So these operations return ENXIO for every call
made on files in a file system where we have otherwise been ignoring
I/O errors.

These two sysctls were added to support UFS softupdates journalling
with snapshots. However, the changes to fsck to use them were never
committed and there have never been any in-tree uses of these sysctls.
More details from Kirk:
When journalling got added to soft updates, its journal rollback freed
blocks that it thought were no longer in use. But it does not take
snapshots into account (i.e., if a snapshot is still using it, then it
cannot be freed). So I added the needed logic to fsck by having the
free go through the kernel's blkfree code so it could grab blocks that
were still needed by snapshots. That is done using the setbufoutput
hack. I never got that code working reliably, so it is still sitting
in my work directory. Which also explains why you still cannot take
snapshots on filesystems running with journalling...
In looking over my use of this feature, and in particular the troubles
I was having with it, I conclude that it may be better to extract the
code from the kernel that handles freeing blocks claimed by snapshots
and putting it into fsck directly. My original intent was that it is
complex and at the time changing, so only having to maintain it in one
place was appealing. But at this point it has not changed in years and
the hacks like setinode and setbufoutput to be able to use the kernel
code is sufficiently ugly, that I am leaning towards just extracting
it.

directory entries that is caused by uninitialized directory entry
padding written to the disk. It can be viewed by any user with read
access to that directory. Up to 3 bytes of kernel stack are disclosed
per file entry, depending on the the amount of padding the kernel
needs to pad out the entry to a 32 bit boundry. The offset in the
kernel stack that is disclosed is a function of the filename size.
Furthermore, if the user can create files in a directory, this 3
byte window can be expanded 3 bytes at a time to a 254 byte window
with 75% of the data in that window exposed. The additional exposure
is done by removing the entry, creating a new entry with a 4-byte
longer name, extracting 3 more bytes by reading the directory, and
repeating until a 252 byte name is created.
This exploit works in part because the area of the kernel stack
that is being disclosed is in an area that typically doesn't change
that often (perhaps a few times a second on a lightly loaded system),
and these file creates and unlinks themselves don't overwrite the
area of kernel stack being disclosed.

This bug was introduced with the change to use softdep_bp_to_mp()
in January 2018 changes -r327723 and -r327821. The softdep_bp_to_mp()
function failed to include VSOCK as one of the valid cases.
Although local-domain sockets do not allocate blocks in the filesystem,
they will allocate blocks if they use extended attributes (such as
ACLs). Thus, softdep_bp_to_mp() needs to return a non-NULL mount
pointer when presented with a socket vnode so that the soft updates
write complete will properly process the soft updates structures
associated with the extended attribute blocks. It was the failure
to process these soft updates structures, thus leaving them hanging
off the buffer, which lead to the "panic: softdep_deallocate_dependencies:
dangling deps" when trying to clean up the buffer after it was written.

The old implementation, at the VFS layer, would map the entire range of
logical blocks between the starting offset and the first data block
following that offset. With large sparse files this is very
inefficient. The VFS currently doesn't provide an interface to improve
upon the current implementation in a generic way.
Add ufs_bmap_seekdata(), which uses the obvious algorithm of scanning
indirect blocks to look for data blocks. Use it instead of

is a violation of the invarients of the UFS filesystem).
Soft updates will always ensure that the file size is correct when
writing inodes to disk for files that contain only direct block
pointers. However soft updates does not roll back sizes for files
with indirect blocks that it has set to unallocated because their
contents have not yet been written to disk. Hence, the file can
appear to have a hole at its end because the block pointer has been
rolled back to zero when its inode was written to disk. Thus,
fsck_ffs calculates the last allocated block in the file. For files
that extend into indirect blocks, fsck_ffs checks for a size past
the last allocated block of the file and if that is found, shortens
the file to reference the last allocated block thus avoiding having
it reference a hole at its end.

superblock has a check-hash error, an error message noting the
superblock check-hash failure is printed and the mount fails. The
administrator then runs fsck to repair the filesystem and when
successful, the filesystem can once again be mounted.
This approach fails if the filesystem in question is a root filesystem
from which you are trying to boot. Here, the loader fails when trying
to access the filesystem to get the kernel to boot. So it is necessary
to allow the loader to ignore the superblock check-hash error and make
a best effort to read the kernel. The filesystem may be suffiently
corrupted that the read attempt fails, but there is no harm in trying
since the loader makes no attempt to write to the filesystem.
Once the kernel is loaded and starts to run, it attempts to mount its
root filesystem. Once again, failure means that it breaks to its prompt
to ask where to get its root filesystem. Unless you have an alternate
root filesystem, you are stuck.
Since the root filesystem is initially mounted read-only, it is
safe to make an attempt to mount the root filesystem with the failed
superblock check-hash. Thus, when asked to mount a root filesystem
with a failed superblock check-hash, the kernel prints a warning
message that the root filesystem superblock check-hash needs repair,
but notes that it is ignoring the error and proceeding. It does
mark the filesystem as needing an fsck which prevents it from being
enabled for writing until fsck has been run on it. The net effect
is that the reboot fails to single user, but at least at that point
the administrator has the tools at hand to fix the problem.

UFS quotaoff iterates over all mp vnodes, and derefences and clears
the pointers to corresponding dquots. If SU work items transiently
reference some of dquots,quotaoff() would eventually fail, but all
processed vnodes are already stripped from dquots. The state is
problematic, since quotas are left enabled, but there is no dquots
where blocks and inodes can be accounted. The result is assertion
failures and NULL pointer dereferences.
Fix it by suspending writes around quotaoff() call. Since the
filesystem is synced, no dandling references to dquots from SU
workitems can left behind, which means that quotaoff succeeds.
The complication there is that quotaoff VFS op is performed with the
mount point busied, while to suspend, we need to start write on the
mp. If vn_start_write() is called on busied mp, system might deadlock
against parallel unmount request. Handle this by unbusy-ing mp before
starting write, which in turn requires changing the quotaoff()
interface to return with the mount point not busied, same as was done
for quotaon().

blocks of a file as contiguously as possible. Since the filesystem
does not know how large a file will grow when it is first being
written, it initially places the file in a set of blocks in which
it currently fits. As it grows, it is relocated to areas with
larger contiguous blocks. In this way it saves its large contiguous
sets of blocks for the files that need them and thus avoids
unnecessaily fragmenting its disk space.
We used to skip reallocating the blocks of a file into a contiguous
sequence if the underlying flash device requested BIO_DELETE
notifications, because devices that benefit from BIO_DELETE also
benefit from not moving the data. However, in the algorithm described
above that reallocates the blocks, the destination for the data is
usually moved before the data is written to the initially allocated
location. So we rarely suffer the penalty of extra writes. With
the addition of the consolodation of contiguous blocks into single
BIO_DELETE operations, having fewer but larger contiguous blocks
reduces the number of (slow and expensive) BIO_DELETE operations.
So when doing BIO_DELETE consolodation, we do block reallocation.

When deleting files on filesystems that are stored on flash-memory
(solid-state) disk drives, the filesystem notifies the underlying
disk of the blocks that it is no longer using. The notification
allows the drive to avoid saving these blocks when it needs to
flash (zero out) one of its flash pages. These notifications of
no-longer-being-used blocks are referred to as TRIM notifications.
In FreeBSD these TRIM notifications are sent from the filesystem
to the drive using the BIO_DELETE command.
Until now, the filesystem would send a separate message to the drive
for each block of the file that was deleted. Each Gigabyte of file
size resulted in over 3000 TRIM messages being sent to the drive.
This burst of messages can overwhelm the drive's task queue causing
multiple second delays for read and write requests.
This implementation collects runs of contiguous blocks in the file
and then consolodates them into a single BIO_DELETE command to the
drive. The BIO_DELETE command describes the run of blocks as a
single large block being deleted. Each Gigabyte of file size can
result in as few as two BIO_DELETE commands and is typically less
than ten. Though these larger BIO_DELETE commands take longer to
run, they do not clog the drive task queue, so read and write
commands can intersperse effectively with them.
Though this new feature has been throughly reviewed and tested, it
is being added disabled by default so as to minimize the possibility
of disrupting the upcoming 12.0 release. It can be enabled by running
``sysctl vfs.ffs.dotrimcons=1''. Users are encouraged to test it.
If no problems arise, we will consider requesting that it be enabled
by default for 12.0.

to fix the memory leak that I introduced in r328426. Instead of
trying to clear up the possible memory leak in all the clients, I
ensure that it gets cleaned up in the source (e.g., ffs_sbget ensures
that memory is always freed if it returns an error).
The original change in r328426 was a bit sparse in its description.
So I am expanding on its description here (thanks cem@ and rgrimes@

In preparation for adding check hashing to superblocks, r328426 is
a refactoring of the code to get the reading/writing of the superblock
into one place. Unlike the cylinder group reading/writing which
ends up in two places (ffs_getcg/ffs_geom_strategy in the kernel
and cgget/cgput in libufs), I have the core superblock functions
just in the kernel (ffs_sbfetch/ffs_sbput in ffs_subr.c which is
already imported into utilities like fsck_ffs as well as libufs to
implement sbget/sbput). The ffs_sbfetch and ffs_sbput functions
take a function pointer to do the actual I/O for which there are
four variants:
ffs_use_bread / ffs_use_bwrite for the in-kernel filesystem
g_use_g_read_data / g_use_g_write_data for kernel geom clients
ufs_use_sa_read for the standalone code (stand/libsa/ufs.c
but not stand/libsa/ufsread.c which is size constrained)
use_pread / use_pwrite for libufs
Uses of these interfaces are in the UFS filesystem, geoms journal &
label, libsa changes, and libufs. They also permeate out into the
filesystem utilities fsck_ffs, newfs, growfs, clri, dump, quotacheck,
fsirand, fstyp, and quot. Some of these utilities should probably be
converted to directly use libufs (like dumpfs was for example), but
there does not seem to be much win in doing so.
