When the cluster crosses the boundary into the first indirect block,
the first indirect block is initially allocated in a position
immediately following the last direct block. Block reallocation
would usually destroy locality by moving the indirect block out of
the way to keep the data blocks contiguous. This change compensates
for this problem by noting that the first indirect block should be

and it is no longer referenced by a user process. The inode for a
file whose name has been removed, but is still referenced at the
time of a crash will still be allocated in the filesystem, but will
have no references (e.g., they will have no names referencing them
from any directory).
With traditional soft updates these unreferenced inodes will be
found and reclaimed when the background fsck is run. When using
journaled soft updates, the kernel must keep track of these inodes
so that it can find and reclaim them during the cleanup process.
Their existence cannot be stored in the journal as the journal only
handles short-term events, and they may persist for days. So, they
are tracked by keeping them in a linked list whose head pointer is
stored in the superblock. The journal tracks them only until their
linked list pointers have been commited to disk. Part of the cleanup
process involves traversing the list of unreferenced inodes and
reclaiming them.
This bug was triggered when confusion arose in the commit steps
of keeping the unreferenced-inode linked list coherent on disk.
Notably, a race between the link() system call adding a link-count
to a file and the unlink() system call removing a link-count to
the file. Here if the unlink() ran after link() had looked up
the file but before link() had incremented the link-count of the
file, the file's link-count would drop to zero before the link()
incremented it back up to one. If the file was referenced by a
user process, the first transition through zero made it appear
that it should be added to the unreferenced-inode list when in
fact it should not have been added. If the new name created by
link() was deleted within a few seconds (with the file still
referenced by a user process) it would legitimately be a candidate
for addition to the unreferenced-inode list. The result was that
there were two attempts to add the same inode to the unreferenced-inode
list which scrambled the unreferenced-inode list's pointers leading
to a panic. The fix is to detect and avoid the false attempt at
adding it to the unreferenced-inode list by having the link()
system call check to see if the link count is zero before it
increments it. If it is, the link() fails with ENOENT (showing that
it has failed the link()/unlink() race).
While tracking down this bug, we have added additional assertions
to detect the problem sooner and also simplified some of the code.

snapshots on UFS filesystems running with journaled soft updates.
This is the first of several bugs that need to be fixed before
removing the restriction added in -r230250 to prevent the use
of snapshots on filesystems running with journaled soft updates.
The deadlock occurs when holding the snapshot lock (snaplk)
and then trying to flush an inode via ffs_update(). We become
blocked by another process trying to flush a different inode
contained in the same inode block that we need. It holds the
inode block for which we are waiting locked. When it tries to
write the inode block, it gets blocked waiting for the our
snaplk when it calls ffs_copyonwrite() to see if the inode
block needs to be copied in our snapshot.
The most obvious place that this deadlock arises is in the
ffs_copyonwrite() routine when it updates critical metadata
in a snapshot and tries to write it out before proceeding.
The fix here is to write the data and indirect block pointer
for the snapshot, but to skip the call to ffs_update() to
write the snapshot inode. To ensure that we will never have
to update a pointer in the inode itself, the ffs_snapshot()
routine that creates the snapshot has to ensure that all the
direct blocks are allocated as part of the creation of the
snapshot.
A less obvious place that this deadlock occurs is when we hold
the snaplk because we are deleting a snapshot. In the course of
doing the deletion, we need to allocate various soft update
dependency structures and allocate some journal space. If we
hit a resource limit while doing this we decrease the resources
in use by flushing out an existing dirty file to get it to give
up the soft dependency resources that it holds. The flush can
cause an ffs_update() to be done on the inode for the file that
we have selected to flush resulting in the same deadlock as
described above when the inode that we have chosen to flush
resides in the same inode block as the snapshot inode that we hold.
The fix is to defer cleaning up any time that the inode on which
we are operating is a snapshot.

to be completely filled by a uiomove() from the user's buffer.
However, if the uiomove() failed, the old contents of the buffer
could be exposed especially if the file was being mmap'ed. The
fix was to always zero the buffer when it was allocated.
This change first attempts the uiomove() to the newly allocated
(and dirty) buffer and only zeros it if the uiomove() fails. The
effect is to eliminate the gratuitous zeroing of the buffer in

every 30 seconds. This spike in I/O caused the system to pause every
30 seconds which was quite annoying. So, the way that sync worked
was changed so that when a vnode was first dirtied, it was put on
a 30-second cleaning queue (see the syncer_workitem_pending queues
in kern/vfs_subr.c). If the file has not been written or deleted
after 30 seconds, the syncer pushes it out. As the syncer runs once
per second, dirty files are trickled out slowly over the 30-second
period instead of all at once by a call to sync(2).
The one drawback to this is that it does not cover the filesystem
metadata. To handle the metadata, vfs_allocate_syncvnode() is called
to create a "filesystem syncer vnode" at mount time which cycles
around the cleaning queue being sync'ed every 30 seconds. In the
original design, the only things it would sync for UFS were the
filesystem metadata: inode blocks, cylinder group bitmaps, and the
superblock (e.g., by VOP_FSYNC'ing devvp, the device vnode from
which the filesystem is mounted).
Somewhere in its path to integration with FreeBSD the flushing of
the filesystem syncer vnode got changed to sync every vnode associated
with the filesystem. The result of this change is to return to the
old filesystem-wide flush every 30-seconds behavior and makes the
whole 30-second delay per vnode useless.
This change goes back to the originally intended trickle out sync
behavior. Key to ensuring that all the intended semantics are
preserved (e.g., that all inode updates get flushed within a bounded
period of time) is that all inode modifications get pushed to their
corresponding inode blocks so that the metadata flush by the
filesystem syncer vnode gets them to the disk in a timely way.
