builds up a list of the filesystem metadata (such as the cylinder
group bitmaps) that are contained in the snapshot. When doing a
copy-on-write check, the list is first consulted. If the block being
written is found on the list, then the full snapshot lookup can be
avoided. Besides providing an important performance speedup this
check also avoids a potential deadlock between the code creating
the snapshot and the bufdaemon trying to cleanup snapshot related
buffers. This fix creates a temporary list containing the key
metadata blocks that can cause the deadlock. This temporary list

a buffer is grabbed to store the indirect block numbers that need
to be freed. Those blocks cannot be freed until the inode claiming
them is written to disk. Thus, the number of buffers being held by
soft updates explodes and in extreme cases can run the kernel out

The fsync causes the inode to be written so that the held buffers

leave the labeling up to the file system. With UFS1/2, this means
reading the extended attribute during vfs_vget() as the inode is
pulled off disk, rather than hitting the extended attributes
frequently during operations later, improving performance. This
also corrects sematics for shared vnode locks, which were not

Comment out Kirks io-request priority hack until we can do this in a
civilized way which doesn't cause grief.
The problem is that it is not generally safe to cast a "struct bio
*" to a "struct buf *". Things like ccd, vinum, ata-raid and GEOM
constructs bio's which are not entrails of a struct buf.
Also, curthread may or may not have anything to do with the I/O request
at hand.
The correct solution can either be to tag struct bio's with a
priority derived from the requesting threads nice and have disksort
act on this field, this wouldn't address the "silly-seek syndrome"
where two equal processes bang the diskheads from one edge to the
other of the disk repeatedly.
Alternatively, and probably better: a sleep should be introduced
either at the time the I/O is requested or at the time it is completed
where we can be sure to sleep in the right thread.
The sleep also needs to be in constant timeunits, 1/hz can be practicaly
any sub-second size, at high HZ the current code practically doesn't
do anything.
----------------------------
As suggested in this comment, it is no longer located in the disk sort
routine, but rather now resides in spec_strategy where the disk operations
are being queued by the thread that is associated with the process that
is really requesting the I/O. At that point, the disk queues are not
visible, so the I/O for positively niced processes is always slowed
down whether or not there is other activity on the disk.
On the issue of scaling HZ, I believe that the current scheme is
better than using a fixed quantum of time. As machines and I/O
subsystems get faster, the resolution on the clock also rises.
So, ten years from now we will be slowing things down for shorter
periods of time, but the proportional effect on the system will
be about the same as it is today. So, I view this as a feature
rather than a drawback. Hence this patch sticks with using HZ.

that use it. Specifically, vop_stdlock uses the lock pointed to by
vp->v_vnlock. By default, getnewvnode sets up vp->v_vnlock to
reference vp->v_lock. Filesystems that wish to use the default
do not need to allocate a lock at the front of their node structure
(as some still did) or do a lockinit. They can simply start using
vn_lock/VOP_UNLOCK. Filesystems that wish to manage their own locks,
but still use the vop_stdlock functions (such as nullfs) can simply
replace vp->v_vnlock with a pointer to the lock that they wish to
have used for the vnode. Such filesystems are responsible for
setting the vp->v_vnlock back to the default in their vop_reclaim
routine (e.g., vp->v_vnlock = &vp->v_lock).
In theory, this set of changes cleans up the existing filesystem
lock interface and should have no function change to the existing
locking scheme.

Whenever doing a copy-on-write check, first look in the list of
initially allocated blocks to see if it is there. If so, no further
check is needed. If not, fall through and do the full check. This
change eliminates one of two known deadlocks caused by snapshots.
Handling the second deadlock will be the subject of another check-in.
This change also reduces the cost of the copy-on-write check by
speeding up the verification of frequently checked blocks.

even when the underlying device has a larger sector size. Therefore,
the filesystem code should not (and with this patch does not) try to
use the underlying sector size when doing disk block address calculations.
This patch fixes problems in -current when using the swap-based
memory-disk device (mdconfig -a -t swap ...). This bugfix is not
relevant to -stable as -stable does not have the memory-disk device.
