CVS commit: src/sbin/newfs_lfs



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   dholland
Date:           Thu Oct 15 06:24:33 UTC 2015

Modified Files:
        src/sbin/newfs_lfs: extern.h make_lfs.c newfs.c newfs_lfs.8

Log Message:
Enable the creation of lfs64 volumes.

To create an lfs64 volume, use -w 64. You can also force a 32-bit
volume with -w 32, but this will fail on devices thta are too large.

lfs64 is the default for devices > 1TB. (1TB rather than 2TB because
daddr_t is signed and negative block numbers can cause interesting
complications.)

For now print a warning that the lfs64 format isn't finalized, because
it isn't. For now any lfs64 use should be limited to test data,
benchmarking, and so forth.
