In which way ?

No, mknod(S_IFMT) is clearly non-functional management interface, and we
allow management interface changes between releases, and if desired, inside
the releases as well.

UFS code is not prepared to VBAD vnodes.  I do not mean specifically the
vnode type, but the VOPs operations on such inodes.

It is pointless to spend the time on making it functional. Modern disk
failure modes made badsect(8) useless in the beginning if the beginning
of 199x.

I will commit the following patch after make universe finishes.

-.Dd June 5, 1993
-.Dt BADSECT 8
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm badsect
-.Nd create files to contain bad sectors
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Nm
-.Ar bbdir sector ...
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-utility makes a file to contain a bad sector.
-Normally, bad sectors
-are made inaccessible by the standard formatter, which provides
-a forwarding table for bad sectors to the driver.
-If a driver supports the bad blocking standard it is much preferable to
-use that method to isolate bad blocks, since the bad block forwarding
-makes the pack appear perfect, and such packs can then be copied with
-.Xr dd 1 .
-The technique used by this program is also less general than
-bad block forwarding, as
-.Nm
-cannot make amends for
-bad blocks in the i-list of file systems or in swap areas.
-.Pp
-On some disks,
-adding a sector which is suddenly bad to the bad sector table
-currently requires the running of the standard
-.Tn DEC
-formatter.
-Thus to deal with a newly bad block
-or on disks where the drivers
-do not support the bad-blocking standard
-.Nm
-may be used to good effect.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-utility is used on a quiet file system in the following way:
-First mount the file system, and change to its root directory.
-Make a directory
-.Li BAD
-there.
-Run
-.Nm
-giving as argument the
-.Ar BAD
-directory followed by
-all the bad sectors you wish to add.
-(The sector numbers must be relative to the beginning of
-the file system, but this is not hard as the system reports
-relative sector numbers in its console error messages.)
-Then change back to the root directory, unmount the file system
-and run
-.Xr fsck 8
-on the file system.
-The bad sectors should show up in two files
-or in the bad sector files and the free list.
-Have
-.Xr fsck 8
-remove files containing the offending bad sectors, but
-.Em do not
-have it remove the
-.Pa BAD/ Ns Em nnnnn
-files.
-This will leave the bad sectors in only the
-.Li BAD
-files.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-utility works by giving the specified sector numbers in a
-.Xr mknod 2
-system call,
-creating an illegal file whose first block address is the block containing
-bad sector and whose name is the bad sector number.
-When it is discovered by
-.Xr fsck 8
-it will ask
-.Dq Li "HOLD BAD BLOCK \&?" .
-A positive response will cause
-.Xr fsck 8
-to convert the inode to a regular file containing the bad block.
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-The
-.Nm
-utility refuses to attach a block that
-resides in a critical area or is out of range of the file system.
-A warning is issued if the block is already in use.
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr fsck 8
-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Nm
-utility appeared in
-.Bx 4.1 .
-.Sh BUGS
-If more than one sector which comprise a file system fragment are bad,
-you should specify only one of them to
-.Nm ,
-as the blocks in the bad sector files actually cover all the sectors in a
-file system fragment.
