FAT file systems do not use inodes, instead all file meta-information
is stored in directory entries.
FAT12 and FAT16 use a fixed size area for root directories, with
typically 512 entries of 32 bytes each (for a total of 16 KB) on hard
disk formats. The file system data is stored in clusters of typically
512 to 4096 bytes, depending on the size of the file system.
The current code uses the offset of a DOS 8.3 style directory entry as
a pseudo-inode, which leads to inode values of 0 to 16368 for typical
root directories with 512 entries.
Sub-directories use 2 cluster length plus the byte offset of the
directory entry in the data area for the pseudo-inode, which may be
as low as 1024 in case of 512 byte clusters. A sub-directory in
cluster 2 and with 512 byte clusters will therefore lead to a
re-use of inode 1024 when there are at least 32 DOS 8.3 style
filenames in the root directory (or 11 14-character Windows
long file names, each of which takes up 3 directory entries).
FAT32 file systems are not affected by this issue and FAT12/FAT16
file systems with larger cluster sizes are unlikely to have as
many directory entries in the root directory as are required to
cause the collision.
This commit leads to inode numbers that are guaranteed to not collide
for all valid FAT12 and FAT16 file system parameters. It does also
provide a small speed-up due to more efficient use of the vnode cache.

This update implements tallying of free directory entries during
create, delete, or rename operations on FAT12 and FAT16 file systems.
Prior to this change, the total number of root directory entries
was reported as number of inodes, but 0 as the number of free
inodes, causing system health monitoring software to warn about
a suspected disk full issue.
The FAT12 and FAT16 file systems provide a limited number of
root directory entries, e.g. 512 on typical hard disk formats.
The valid range of values is 1 to 65535, but the msdosfs code
will effectively round up "odd" values to the next multiple of 16
(e.g. 513 would allow for 528 root directory entries).
This update implements tracking of directory entries during create,
delete, or rename operations, with initial values determined by
scanning the directory when the file system is mounted.
Total and free directory entries are reported in the f_files and
f_ffree elements of struct statfs, despite differences in semantics
of these values:
- There is no limit on the number of files and directories that can
be created on a FAT file system. Only the root directory of FAT12
and FAT16 file systems is limited, any number of files can still be
created in sub-directories, even when 0 free "inodes" are reported.
- A single file can require 1 to 21 directory entries, depending on
the character set, structure, and length of the name. The DOS 8.3
style file name takes up 1 entry, and if the name does not comply
with the syntax of a DOS 8.3 file name, 1 additional entry is used
for each 13 characters of the file name. Since all these entries
have to be contiguous, it is possible that a file or directory with
a long name can not be created, despite a sufficient total number of
free directory entries.
- Renaming a file can require more directory entries than currently
allocated to store its long name, which may prevent an in-place
update of the name if more entries are needed. This may cause a
rename operation to fail if no contiguous range of free entries for
the new name can be found.
- The volume label is stored in a directory entry. An empty FAT file
system with a volume label will therefore show 1 used "inode" in
df.
- The perceentage of free inodes shown in df or monitoring tools does
only represent the state of the root directory of a FAT12 or FAT16
file system. Neither does a reported value of 0% free inodes does
prevent files from being created in sub-directories, nor does a
value of 50% free inodes guarantee that even a single file with
a "long" name can be created in the root directory (if every other
directory entry is occupied and there are no 2 contiguous entries).
The statfs(2) and df(1) man pages have been updated with a notice
regarding the possibly different semantics of values reported as
total and free inodes for non-Unix file systems.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,

into namecache, to avoid cache trashing when doing large operations.
E.g., tar archive extraction is not usually followed by access to many
of the files created.
Right now, each VOP_LOOKUP() implementation explicitely knowns about
this quirk and tests for both MAKEENTRY flag presence and op != CREATE
to make the call to cache_enter(). Centralize the handling of the
quirk into VFS, by deciding to cache only by MAKEENTRY flag in VOP.
VFS now sets NOCACHE flag for CREATE namei() calls.
Note that the change in semantic is backward-compatible and could be
merged to the stable branch, and is compatible with non-changed
third-party filesystems which correctly handle MAKEENTRY.

This is much simpler than for ffs since there are many fewer places
where we need to choose between a delayed write and a sync write --
just 5 in msdosfs and more than 30 in ffs.
This is more complete and correct than in ffs. Several places in ffs
are are still missing the choice. ffs_update() has a layering violation
that breaks callers which want to force a sync update (mainly fsync(2)
and O_SYNC write(2)).
However, fsync(2) and O_SYNC write(2) are still more broken than in
ffs, since they are broken for default (non-sync non-async) mounts
too. Both fail to sync the FAT in all cases, and both fail to sync
the directory entry in some cases after losing a race. Async everything
is probably safer than the half-baked sync of metadata given by default
mounts.
can easily block in bread(), and then there was nothing to prevent the
static buffer (nambuf_{ptr,len,last_id}) being clobbered by another
thread.
The effects of the bug seem to have been limited to failed lookups and
mangled names in readdir(), since Giant locking provides enough
serialization to prevent concurrent calls to the functions that access
the buffer. They were very obvious for multiple concurrent tree walks,
especially with a small cluster size.
The bug was introduced in msdosfs_conv.c 1.34 and associated changes,
and is in all releases starting with 5.2.
The fix is to allocate the buffer as a local variable and pass around
pointers to it like "_r" functions in libc do. Stack use from this
is large but not too large. This also fixes a memory leak on module
unload.

Since the name cache is case-sensitive and msdosfs isn't,
creating a file 'foo' won't invalidate a negative entry for 'FOO'.
There are similar problems related to 8.3 filenames.
A better solution is to override VOP_LOOKUP with a method that
canonicalizes the name, then calls vfs_cache_lookup(). Unfortunately,
it's not quite that simple because vfs_cache_lookup() will call
msdosfs_lookup() on a cache miss, and msdosfs_lookup() needs a way to
get at the original component name.
Fix a problem in previous: we can't blindly assume that we have
wincnt entries available at the offset the file has been found. If the dos
directory entry is not preceded by appropriate number of long name
entries (happens e.g. when the filesystem is corrupted, or when
the filename complies to DOS rules and doesn't use any long name entry),
we would overwrite random directory entries.
There are still some problems, the whole thing has to be revisited and solved
right.

- v_iflag is protected by interlock and is used for dealing with vnode

- All accesses to v_iflag and v_vflag have either been locked or marked with

- Many ASSERT_VOP_LOCKED calls have been added where the locking was not
clear.
- Many functions in vfs_subr.c were restructured to provide for stronger
