H A Dsetup.cdiff 94031 Sun Apr 07 03:16:33 MDT 2002 mckusick When checking the alternate superblock, we used to copy any fields
that might have changed, then did a byte-by-byte comparison with
the alternate. If any unused fields got used, they had to be added
to the exception list. Such changes caused too many false alarms.
So, I have changed the comparison algorithm to compare a selected
set of fields that are not expected to change. This new algorithm
causes far fewer false hits and still does a good job of detecting
problems when they have really occurred. In particular, this change
should ease the transition to kernels supporting UFS2 which make
some significant changes to the superblock.
