Fs* in /usr/include/sys/param.h

On a Convergent S/640 box,(basic USG config), param.h uses several
Fs defines. One is what size are the logical blocks on your system.
When FsTYPE is set to 3, it allows a system to have a combination of
512,1024,2048 logical block sizes. But with that, you have to give it
a device. Here is part of that file:

#if FsTYPE==3
	/* Dual system */
#define	BSIZE	512		/* size of file system block (bytes) */
#define	SBUFSIZE	(BSIZE*2)	/* system buffer size */
#define	BSHIFT	9		/* LOG2(BSIZE) */
#define	NINDIR	(BSIZE/sizeof(daddr_t))
#define	Fs2BLK	0x2000
#define	FsLRG(dev)	(dev&Fs2BLK)
#define	FsBSIZE(dev)	(FsLRG(dev) ? (BSIZE*2) : BSIZE)
#define	FsBSHIFT(dev)	(FsLRG(dev) ? 10 : 9)
#define	FsNINDIR(dev)	(FsLRG(dev) ? 256 : 128)
/*** lots of code deleted ***/
#endif

Normally, you when send a stucture of filsys, but on FsTYPE=3, it expects
a device, not a stucture. What do I use for the dev????
