Summary

my test that makes disks disappear out from under mounted file systems triggers this panic:

g_vfs_done():da32p8[WRITE(offset=283753381888, length=8388608)]error = 6
(da32:mps3:0:7:0): Periph destroyed
panic: consumer not attached in g_io_request

the problem here is that the refcounting that protects against this is in the geom_vfs layer, but ffs_blkfree() bypasses geom_vfs and calls g_io_request() directly. this patch changes ffs_blkfree() to use g_vfs_strategy() instead, thus protecting these trims from disappearing disks.

Kirk suggested using his upcoming M_TRIM malloc type instead of M_TEMP, but that's not in the tree yet so I left that bit for later.

Test Plan

without this patch, my test that makes the disk disappear crashes within a few minutes. with this patch I no longer see this problem.

Event Timeline

We can change to M_TRIM when Kirk commits his stuff :)

This looks good to me. I'll change the M_TEMP to M_TRIM when I check my changes into the tree.

After I did my commit, I noticed something odd. g_vfs_strategy is generally unused outside of geom, but BO_STRATEGY is used instead.

FreeBSD/sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_alloc.c

I think this should be BO_STRATEGY(ump->um_bo, bp); instead. I know that there's one other call to g_vfs_strategy in ufs, but all the other filesystems use BO_STRATEGY instead. Of course, they use that in the context of their vop_strategy_t routine, not for a direct I/O call unrelated to an existing I/O, so I'm unsure.
