Kirk McKusick 7839b23f00 The UFS2 filesystem allocates new blocks of inodes as they are needed. ... When a cylinder group runs short of inodes, a new block for inodes is allocated, zero'ed, and written to the disk. The zero'ed inodes must be on the disk before the cylinder group can be updated to claim them. If the cylinder group claiming the new inodes were written before the zero'ed block of inodes, the system could crash with the filesystem in an unrecoverable state. Rather than adding a soft updates dependency to ensure that the new inode block is written before it is claimed by the cylinder group map, we just do a barrier write of the zero'ed inode block to ensure that it will get written before the updated cylinder group map can be written. This change should only slow down bulk loading of newly created filesystems since that is the primary time that new inode blocks need to be created.
