Konstantin Belousov 6992112349 Commit the 64-bit inode project.
Extend the ino_t, dev_t, nlink_t types to 64-bit ints.  Modify
struct dirent layout to add d_off, increase the size of d_fileno
to 64-bits, increase the size of d_namlen to 16-bits, and change
the required alignment.  Increase struct statfs f_mntfromname[] and
f_mntonname[] array length MNAMELEN to 1024.

ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks.  Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system.  For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.

Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.

Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.

For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.

Update note: strictly follow the instructions in UPDATING.  Build
and install the new kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option enabled,
then reboot, and only then install new world.

Credits: The 64-bit inode project, also known as ino64, started life
many years ago as a project by Gleb Kurtsou (gleb).  Kirk McKusick
(mckusick) then picked up and updated the patch, and acted as a
flag-waver.  Feedback, suggestions, and discussions were carried
by Ed Maste (emaste), John Baldwin (jhb), Jilles Tjoelker (jilles),
and Rick Macklem (rmacklem).  Kris Moore (kris) performed an initial
ports investigation followed by an exp-run by Antoine Brodin (antoine).
Essential and all-embracing testing was done by Peter Holm (pho).
The heavy lifting of coordinating all these efforts and bringing the
project to completion were done by Konstantin Belousov (kib).

.Sh NAME
.Nm acct
.Nd execution accounting file
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In sys/types.h
.In sys/acct.h
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The kernel maintains the following
.Fa acct
information structure for all
processes.
If a process terminates, and accounting is enabled,
the kernel calls the
.Xr acct 2
function call to prepare and append the record
to the accounting file.
.Bd -literal
#define AC_COMM_LEN 16
/*
* Accounting structure version 3 (current).
* The first byte is always zero.
* Time units are microseconds.
*/
struct acctv3 {
uint8_t ac_zero; /* zero identifies new version */
uint8_t ac_version; /* record version number */
uint16_t ac_len; /* record length */
char ac_comm[AC_COMM_LEN]; /* command name */
float ac_utime; /* user time */
float ac_stime; /* system time */
float ac_etime; /* elapsed time */
time_t ac_btime; /* starting time */
uid_t ac_uid; /* user id */
gid_t ac_gid; /* group id */
float ac_mem; /* average memory usage */
float ac_io; /* count of IO blocks */
__dev_t ac_tty; /* controlling tty */
uint16_t ac_len2; /* record length */
union {
uint32_t ac_align; /* force v1 compatible alignment */
#define AFORK 0x01 /* forked but not exec'ed */
/* ASU is no longer supported */
#define ASU 0x02 /* used super-user permissions */
#define ACOMPAT 0x04 /* used compatibility mode */
#define ACORE 0x08 /* dumped core */
#define AXSIG 0x10 /* killed by a signal */
#define ANVER 0x20 /* new record version */
uint8_t ac_flag; /* accounting flags */
} ac_trailer;
#define ac_flagx ac_trailer.ac_flag
};
.Ed
.Pp
If a terminated process was created by an
.Xr execve 2 ,
the name of the executed file (at most ten characters of it)
is saved in the field
.Fa ac_comm
and its status is saved by setting one of more of the following flags in
.Fa ac_flag :
.Dv AFORK ,
.Dv ACOMPAT ,
.Dv ACORE
and
.Dv ASIG .
.Dv ASU
is no longer supported.
.Dv ANVER
is always set in the above structure.

.Sh HISTORY
A
.Nm
file format appeared in
.At v7 .
The current record format was introduced on May 2007.
It is backwards compatible with the previous format,
which is still documented in
.In sys/acct.h
and supported by
.Xr lastcomm 1
and
.Xr sa 8 .
