The purpose of this change to the FFS layout policy is to reduce the running time for a full fsck. It also reduces the random access time for large files and speeds the traversal time for directory tree walks.
The key idea is to reserve a small area in each cylinder group immediately following the inode blocks for the use of metadata, specifically indirect blocks and directory contents. The new policy is to preferentially place metadata in the metadata area and everything else in the blocks that follow the metadata area.
The size of this area can be set when creating a filesystem using newfs(8) or changed in an existing filesystem using tunefs(8). Both utilities use the `-k held-for-metadata-blocks' option to specify the amount of space to be held for metadata blocks in each cylinder group. By default, newfs(8) sets this area to half of minfree (typically 4% of the data area).
This work was inspired by a paper presented at Usenix's FAST '13: www.usenix.org/conference/fast13/ffsck-fast-file-system-checker
Details of this implementation appears in the April 2013 of ;login: www.usenix.org/publications/login/april-2013-volume-38-number-2. A copy of the April 2013 ;login: paper can also be downloaded from: www.mckusick.com/publications/faster_fsck.pdf.

Fix problem with geom_label(4) not recognizing UFS labels on filesystems extended using growfs(8). The problem here is that geom_label checks if the filesystem size recorded in UFS superblock is equal to the provider (i.e. device) size. This check cannot be removed due to backward compatibility. On the other hand, in most cases growfs(8) cannot set fs_size in the superblock to match the provider size, because, differently from newfs(8), it cannot recompute cylinder group sizes.
To fix this problem, add another superblock field, fs_providersize, used only for this purpose. The geom_label(4) will attach if either fs_size (filesystem created with newfs(8)) or fs_providersize (filesystem expanded using growfs(8)) matches the device size.

Raise the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from 16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
The rational is that most disks are now running with 4K sectors. While they can (slowly) simulate 512-byte sectors by doing a read-modify-write, it is desirable to avoid this functionality. By raising the minimum filesystem allocation to 4K, the filesystem will never trigger the small sector emulation.
Also, the growth of disk sizes has lead us to double the default block size about every ten years. The rise from 8K to 16K blocks was done in 2001. So, by the 10-year metric, the time has come for 32K blocks.

This avoids a potentially many-hours-long loop of failed writes if newfs finds a partially-overwritten superblock (or, for that matter, random garbage which happens to have superblock magic bytes); on one occasion I found newfs trying to zero 800 million superblocks on a 50 MB disk.

Reported problem: Large (60GB) filesystems created using "newfs -U -O 1 -b 65536 -f 8192" show incorrect results from "df" for free and used space when mounted immediately after creation. fsck on the new filesystem (before ever mounting it once) gives a "SUMMARY INFORMATION BAD" error in phase 5.
This error hasn't occurred in any runs of fsck immediately after "newfs -U -b 65536 -f 8192" (leaving out the "-O 1" option).
Solution: The default UFS1 superblock is located at offset 8K in the filesystem partition; the default UFS2 superblock is located at offset 64K in the filesystem partition. For UFS1 filesystems with a blocksize of 64K, the first alternate superblock resides at 64K which is the the location used for the default UFS2 superblock. By default, the system first checks for a valid superblock at the default location for a UFS2 filoesystem. For a UFS1 filesystem with a blocksize of 64K, there is a valid UFS1 superblock at this location. Thus, even though it is expected to be a backup superblock, the system will use it as its default superblock. So, we have to ensure that all the statistcs on usage are correct in this first alternate superblock as it is the superblock that will actually be used.
While tracking down this problem, another limitation of UFS1 became evident. For UFS1, the number of inodes per cylinder group is stored in an int16_t. Thus the maximum number of inodes per cylinder group is limited to 2^15 - 1. This limit can easily be exceeded for block sizes of 32K and above. Thus when building UFS1 filesystems, newfs must limit the number of inodes per cylinder group to 2^15 - 1.

This fix is in addition to -r203763 which corrected a problem in the kernel that treated large inode numbers as negative rather than unsigned. For a default (16K block) file system, this bug began to show up at a file system size above about 16Tb.

Enable operation of newfs on plain files, which is useful when you want to prepare disk images for emulators (though 'makefs' in port can do something similar).
This relies on: + minor changes to pass the consistency checks even when working on a file;
+ an additional option, '-p partition' , to specify the disk partition to initialize;
+ some changes on the I/O routines to deal with partition offsets.
The latter was a bit tricky to implement, see the details in newfs.h: in newfs, I/O is done through libufs which assumes that the file descriptor refers to the whole partition. Introducing support for the offset in libufs would require a non-backward compatible change in the library, to be dealt with a version bump or with symbol versioning.
I felt both approaches to be overkill for this specific application, especially because there might be other changes to libufs that might become necessary in the near future.
So I used the following trick: - read access is always done by calling bread() directly, so we just add the offset in the (few) places that call bread(); - write access is done through bwrite() and sbwrite(), which in turn calls bwrite(). To avoid rewriting sbwrite(), we supply our own version of bwrite() here, which takes precedence over the version in libufs.

Create a .snap directory mode 770 group operator in the root of a new filesystem. Dump and fsck will create snapshots in this directory rather than in the root for two reasons:
1) For terabyte-sized filesystems, the snapshot may require many minutes to build. Although the filesystem will not be suspended during most of the snapshot build, the snapshot file itself is locked during the entire snapshot build period. Thus, if it is accessed during the period that it is being built, the process trying to access it will block holding its containing directory locked. If the snapshot is in the root, the root will lock and the system will come to a halt until the snapshot finishes. By putting the snapshot in a subdirectory, it is out of the likely path of any process traversing through the root and hence much less likely to cause a lock race to the root.
2) The dump program is usually run by a non-root user running with operator group privilege. Such a user is typically not permitted to create files in the root of a filesystem. By having a directory in group operator with group write access available, such a user will be able to create a snapshot there. Having the dump program create its snapshot in a subdirectory below the root will benefit from point (1) as well.

When newfs'ing a partition with UFS2 that had previously been newfs'ed 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.

Throw the switch--change to UFS2 as our default file system format for FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE and later:
- newfs(8) will now create UFS2 file systems unless UFS1 is specifically requested (-O1). To do this, I just twiddled the Oflag default.
- sysinstall(8) will now select UFS2 as the default layout for new file systems unless specifically requested (use '1' and '2' to change the file system layout in the disk labeler). To do this, I inverted the ufs2 flag into a ufs1 flag, since ufs2 is now the default and ufs1 is the edge case. There's a slight semantic change in the key behavior: '2' no longer toggles, it changes the selection to UFS2.
This is very similar to a patch David O'Brien sent me at one point, and that I couldn't find.

Add some more checks to newfs so that it will not build filesystems that the kernel will refuse to mount. Specifically it now enforces the MAXBSIZE blocksize limit. This update also fixes a problem where newfs could segment fault if the selected fragment size was too large.

Create a new 32-bit fs_flags word in the superblock. Add code to move the old 8-bit fs_old_flags to the new location the first time that the filesystem is mounted by a new kernel. One of the unused flags in fs_old_flags is used to indicate that the flags have been moved. Leave the fs_old_flags word intact so that it will work properly if used on an old kernel.
Change the fs_sblockloc superblock location field to be in units of bytes instead of in units of filesystem fragments. The old units did not work properly when the fragment size exceeeded the superblock size (8192). Update old fs_sblockloc values at the same time that the flags are moved.

This commit adds basic support for the UFS2 filesystem. The UFS2 filesystem expands the inode to 256 bytes to make space for 64-bit block pointers. It also adds a file-creation time field, an ability to use jumbo blocks per inode to allow extent like pointer density, and space for extended attributes (up to twice the filesystem block size worth of attributes, e.g., on a 16K filesystem, there is space for 32K of attributes). UFS2 fully supports and runs existing UFS1 filesystems. New filesystems built using newfs can be built in either UFS1 or UFS2 format using the -O option. In this commit UFS1 is the default format, so if you want to build UFS2 format filesystems, you must specify -O 2. This default will be changed to UFS2 when UFS2 proves itself to be stable. In this commit the boot code for reading UFS2 filesystems is not compiled (see /sys/boot/common/ufsread.c) as there is insufficient space in the boot block. Once the size of the boot block is increased, this code can be defined.
Things to note: the definition of SBSIZE has changed to SBLOCKSIZE. The header file <ufs/ufs/dinode.h> must be included before <ufs/ffs/fs.h> so as to get the definitions of ufs2_daddr_t and ufs_lbn_t.
Still TODO: Verify that the first level bootstraps work for all the architectures. Convert the utility ffsinfo to understand UFS2 and test growfs. Add support for the extended attribute storage. Update soft updates to ensure integrity of extended attribute storage. Switch the current extended attribute interfaces to use the extended attribute storage. Add the extent like functionality (framework is there, but is currently never used).

Directory layout preference improvements from Grigoriy Orlov <gluk@ptci.ru>. His description of the problem and solution follow. My own tests show speedups on typical filesystem intensive workloads of 5% to 12% which is very impressive considering the small amount of code change involved.
------
One day I noticed that some file operations run much faster on small file systems then on big ones. I've looked at the ffs algorithms, thought about them, and redesigned the dirpref algorithm.
First I want to describe the results of my tests. These results are old and I have improved the algorithm after these tests were done. Nevertheless they show how big the perfomance speedup may be. I have done two file/directory intensive tests on a two OpenBSD systems with old and new dirpref algorithm. The first test is "tar -xzf ports.tar.gz", the second is "rm -rf ports". The ports.tar.gz file is the ports collection from the OpenBSD 2.8 release. It contains 6596 directories and 13868 files. The test systems are:
1. Celeron-450, 128Mb, two IDE drives, the system at wd0, file system for test is at wd1. Size of test file system is 8 Gb, number of cg=991, size of cg is 8m, block size = 8k, fragment size = 1k OpenBSD-current from Dec 2000 with BUFCACHEPERCENT=35
2. PIII-600, 128Mb, two IBM DTLA-307045 IDE drives at i815e, the system at wd0, file system for test is at wd1. Size of test file system is 40 Gb, number of cg=5324, size of cg is 8m, block size = 8k, fragment size = 1k OpenBSD-current from Dec 2000 with BUFCACHEPERCENT=50
You can get more info about the test systems and methods at: http://www.ptci.ru/gluk/dirpref/old/dirpref.html

"old dirpref" and "new dirpref" columns give a test time in seconds. speedup - speed increasement in times, ie. old dirpref / new dirpref.
------
Algorithm description
The old dirpref algorithm is described in comments:
/* * Find a cylinder to place a directory. * * The policy implemented by this algorithm is to select from * among those cylinder groups with above the average number of * free inodes, the one with the smallest number of directories. */
A new directory is allocated in a different cylinder groups than its parent directory resulting in a directory tree that is spreaded across all the cylinder groups. This spreading out results in a non-optimal access to the directories and files. When we have a small filesystem it is not a problem but when the filesystem is big then perfomance degradation becomes very apparent.
What I mean by a big file system ?
1. A big filesystem is a filesystem which occupy 20-30 or more percent of total drive space, i.e. first and last cylinder are physically located relatively far from each other. 2. It has a relatively large number of cylinder groups, for example more cylinder groups than 50% of the buffers in the buffer cache.
The first results in long access times, while the second results in many buffers being used by metadata operations. Such operations use cylinder group blocks and on-disk inode blocks. The cylinder group block (fs->fs_cblkno) contains struct cg, inode and block bit maps. It is 2k in size for the default filesystem parameters. If new and parent directories are located in different cylinder groups then the system performs more input/output operations and uses more buffers. On filesystems with many cylinder groups, lots of cache buffers are used for metadata operations.
My solution for this problem is very simple. I allocate many directories in one cylinder group. I also do some things, so that the new allocation method does not cause excessive fragmentation and all directory inodes will not be located at a location far from its file's inodes and data. The algorithm is: /* * Find a cylinder group to place a directory. * * The policy implemented by this algorithm is to allocate a * directory inode in the same cylinder group as its parent * directory, but also to reserve space for its files inodes * and data. Restrict the number of directories which may be * allocated one after another in the same cylinder group * without intervening allocation of files. * * If we allocate a first level directory then force allocation * in another cylinder group. */
My early versions of dirpref give me a good results for a wide range of file operations and different filesystem capacities except one case: those applications that create their entire directory structure first and only later fill this structure with files.
My solution for such and similar cases is to limit a number of directories which may be created one after another in the same cylinder group without intervening file creations. For this purpose, I allocate an array of counters at mount time. This array is linked to the superblock fs->fs_contigdirs[cg]. Each time a directory is created the counter increases and each time a file is created the counter decreases. A 60Gb filesystem with 8mb/cg requires 10kb of memory for the counters array.
The maxcontigdirs is a maximum number of directories which may be created without an intervening file creation. I found in my tests that the best performance occurs when I restrict the number of directories in one cylinder group such that all its files may be located in the same cylinder group. There may be some deterioration in performance if all the file inodes are in the same cylinder group as its containing directory, but their data partially resides in a different cylinder group. The maxcontigdirs value is calculated to try to prevent this condition. Since there is no way to know how many files and directories will be allocated later I added two optimization parameters in superblock/tunefs. They are:
int32_t fs_avgfilesize; /* expected average file size */ int32_t fs_avgfpdir; /* expected # of files per directory */
These parameters have reasonable defaults but may be tweeked for special uses of a filesystem. They are only necessary in rare cases like better tuning a filesystem being used to store a squid cache.
I have been using this algorithm for about 3 months. I have done a lot of testing on filesystems with different capacities, average filesize, average number of files per directory, and so on. I think this algorithm has no negative impact on filesystem perfomance. It works better than the default one in all cases. The new dirpref will greatly improve untarring/removing/coping of big directories, decrease load on cvs servers and much more. The new dirpref doesn't speedup a compilation process, but also doesn't slow it down.

The common wisdom is to use the largest number of cylinders per group. So bump the default from `16' to `22', which is the largest value allowed with the current default block size. This change increases the the group size from 32MB/g to 44MB/g on a 4GB SCSI disk.

The ffs superblock includes a 128-byte region for use by temporary in-core pointers to summary information. An array in this region (fs_csp) could overflow on filesystems with a very large number of cylinder groups (~16000 on i386 with 8k blocks). When this happens, other fields in the superblock get corrupted, and fsck refuses to check the filesystem.
Solve this problem by replacing the fs_csp array in 'struct fs' with a single pointer, and add padding to keep the length of the 128-byte region fixed. Update the kernel and userland utilities to use just this single pointer.
With this change, the kernel no longer makes use of the superblock fields 'fs_csshift' and 'fs_csmask'. Add a comment to newfs/mkfs.c to indicate that these fields must be calculated for compatibility with older kernels.

Don't rewrite the disk label. The type field is already set correctly and we don't use the frags info, so why bother? More to the point, it seems to result in an EXDEV error when the label is written out and we lose because of it (don't know why though). This is a work-around and is marked as such.

Some tweaks to get this to cope with ELF where the address space starts higher up in memory (0x0800000 upwards) rather than near zero (0x1000 for our qmagic a.out format). The method that mount_mfs uses to allocate the memory within data size rlimits for the ram disk is entirely too much of a kludge for my liking. I mean, if it's run as root, surely it makes sense to just raise the resource limits to infinity or something, and if it's a non-root user mount (do these work? with mfs?) it could just fail if it's outside limits.

Removed "hack to prevent overflow of a 32bit block number". Lite2 has a better hack in ffs_vfsops.c. The hack here restricted the maximum file size to 2^39 bytes (512GB). fs_bsize * 2^31 - 1 (16TB for the default blocksize of 8K) would have been better. There is no good way to remove this limit on old BSD4.4 file systems.

Fix the mount_mfs case from the last cleanup. The code was (ab)using it's internal malloc() implementation to try and avoid overstepping it's resource limits (yuk!). Remain using libc's malloc(), but check the resource limits right before trying to malloc the ramdisk space and leave some spare memory for libc. In Andrey's words, the internal malloc was "true evil".. Among it's sins is it's ability to allocate less memory than asked for and still return success. stdio would just love that. :-)

This update adds the support for != 512 byte sector SCSI devices to the sd & od drivers. There is also slight changes to fdisk & newfs in order to comply with different sectorsizes. Currently sectors of size 512, 1024 & 2048 are supported, the only restriction beeing in fdisk, which hunts for the sectorsize of the device. This is based on patches to od.c and the other system files by John Gumb & Barry Scott, minor changes and the sd.c patches by me. There also exist some patches for the msdos filesys code, but I havn't been able to test those (yet).

Change the defaults for newfs to disregard the geometry in the disklabel.
We pretend we have one head with two megabyte worth of sectors per cylinder.
The code try to access another head in what it belives to the same physical cylinder, because it belives that it would be faster than waiting for the next free sector under this head to come around.
Most modern drives doesn't have a "classical" geometry, and thus we end up fooling ourselves doing the above optimization. With this change we will fill a cylinder sequentially if we can, and thus get much more mileage from the track-buffer/cache built into the drives.
As a result a lot of seeks to the next or previous track should be avoided by this.
(My disk is a lot less noisy actually...)
You can still get the old behaviour, by specifying zero for the numbers.
This will also solve the problem with newfs barfing at really big drives.

Add support for filesystem-specific `-o' options, and re-implement the most common cd9660 and nfs options like God intended them. (It is now possible to say
mount -o ro,soft,bg,intr there:/foo/bar /foo/bar
again.) This whole getmntopt() business is an incredible botch; it never should have been anything more than a wrapper around getsubopt(3). Because if the way the current hackaround is implemented, options which take arguments (like the old `rsize' and `wsize') are still unavailable, and must be accessed the new, broken way.
(It's unimaginable how Berkeley managed to screw up one of the few things about NFS that Sun actually got right to begin with!)
