With a small disk being 20GB these days, chances are pretty good that
an ailing sector will not be read while still being recoverable by
the drive.
Diskcheck daemon will read disks in the background at a low rate and
that way give the diskdrive a chance to detect and correct soft read
errors before they become hard errors.

gigabit ethernet controller chip. This device is used on some
fiber optic gigE cards from SMC, D-Link and Addtron. Jumbograms and
TCP/IP checksum offload on receive are supported. Hardware VLAN
filtering is not, because it doesn't play well with our existing
VLAN code. Also add manual page.
There is a 4.x version of this driver available at
http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/Level1/4.x if anyone feels adventurous
and wants to test it. I still need to do performance testing and
tuning with this device.
(For my next trick, I will make the 3Com 3cR990 sit up and beg.)
despite the fact that most people want to set exactly the same settings
regardless of which card they have. It has been repeatidly suggested
that this configuration should be done via ifconfig. This patch
implements the required functionality in ifconfig and add support to the
wi and an drivers. It also provides partial, untested support for the
awi driver.

this chipset selling for $150USD or less. This includes the SMC9462TX,
D-Link DGE-500T, Asante GigaNIX 1000TA and 1000TPC, and a couple cards
from Addtron.
This chip supports TCP/IP checksum offload, VLAN tagging/insertion.
2048-bit multicast filter, jumbograms and has 8K TX and 32K RX FIFOs.
I have not done serious performance testing with this driver. I know
it works, and I want it under CVS control so I can keep tabs on it.
Note that there's no serious mutex stuff in here yet either: I need
to talk more with jhb to figure out the right way to do this. That
said, I don't think there will be any problems.
This driver should also work on the alpha. It's not turned on in
GENERIC.

The names imply what they do. The last commit by DES based on a PR defeated
the original idea behind NO_MAKEDEV, which was not to run MAKEDEV, but to do
the installation of MAKEDEV. This should satisfy both parties on the MAKEDEV

<sys/mutex.h> due to #include spam in <sys/mutex.h>. (More precisely,

#include spam in <sys/param.h>.)
Fixed bitrot in prototype for mtx_init().
Some of the major changes include:
- The SCSI error handling portion of cam_periph_error() has
been broken out into a number of subfunctions to better
modularize the code that handles the hierarchy of SCSI errors.
As a result, the code is now much easier to read.
- String handling and error printing has been significantly
revamped. We now use sbufs to do string formatting instead
of using printfs (for the kernel) and snprintf/strncat (for
userland) as before.
There is a new catchall error printing routine,
cam_error_print() and its string-based counterpart,
cam_error_string() that allow the kernel and userland
applications to pass in a CCB and have errors printed out
properly, whether or not they're SCSI errors. Among other
things, this helped eliminate a fair amount of duplicate code
in camcontrol.
We now print out more information than before, including
the CAM status and SCSI status and the error recovery action
taken to remedy the problem.
- sbufs are now available in userland, via libsbuf. This
change was necessary since most of the error printing code
is shared between libcam and the kernel.
- A new transfer settings interface is included in this checkin.
This code is #ifdef'ed out, and is primarily intended to aid
discussion with HBA driver authors on the final form the
interface should take. There is example code in the ahc(4)
driver that implements the HBA driver side of the new
interface. The new transfer settings code won't be enabled
until we're ready to switch all HBA drivers over to the new
interface.
src/Makefile.inc1,
lib/Makefile: Add libsbuf. It must be built before libcam,
since libcam uses sbuf routines.
libcam/Makefile: libcam now depends on libsbuf.
libsbuf/Makefile: Add a makefile for libsbuf. This pulls in the
sbuf sources from sys/kern.
bsd.libnames.mk: Add LIBSBUF.
camcontrol/Makefile: Add -lsbuf. Since camcontrol is statically
linked, we can't depend on the dynamic linker
to pull in libsbuf.
camcontrol.c: Use cam_error_print() instead of checking for
CAM_SCSI_STATUS_ERROR on every failed CCB.
sbuf.9: Change the prototypes for sbuf_cat() and
sbuf_cpy() so that the source string is now a
const char *. This is more in line wth the
standard system string functions, and helps
eliminate warnings when dealing with a const
source buffer.
Fix a typo.
cam.c: Add description strings for the various CAM
error status values, as well as routines to
look up those strings.
Add new cam_error_string() and
cam_error_print() routines for userland and
the kernel.
cam.h: Add a new CAM flag, CAM_RETRY_SELTO.
Add enumerated types for the various options
available with cam_error_print() and
cam_error_string().
cam_ccb.h: Add new transfer negotiation structures/types.
Change inq_len in the ccb_getdev structure to
be "reserved". This field has never been
filled in, and will be removed when we next
bump the CAM version.
cam_debug.h: Fix typo.
cam_periph.c: Modularize cam_periph_error(). The SCSI error
handling part of cam_periph_error() is now
in camperiphscsistatuserror() and
camperiphscsisenseerror().
In cam_periph_lock(), increase the reference
count on the periph while we wait for our lock
attempt to succeed so that the periph won't go
away while we're sleeping.
cam_xpt.c: Add new transfer negotiation code. (ifdefed
out)
Add a new function, xpt_path_string(). This
is a string/sbuf analog to xpt_print_path().
scsi_all.c: Revamp string handing and error printing code.
We now use sbufs for much of the string
formatting code. More of that code is shared
between userland the kernel.
scsi_all.h: Get rid of SS_TURSTART, it wasn't terribly
useful in the first place.
Add a new error action, SS_REQSENSE. (Send a
request sense and then retry the command.)
This is useful when the controller hasn't
performed autosense for some reason.
Change the default actions around a bit.
scsi_cd.c,
scsi_da.c,
scsi_pt.c,
scsi_ses.c: SF_RETRY_SELTO -> CAM_RETRY_SELTO. Selection
timeouts shouldn't be covered by a sense flag.
scsi_pass.[ch]: SF_RETRY_SELTO -> CAM_RETRY_SELTO.
Get rid of the last vestiges of a read/write
interface.
libkern/bsearch.c,
sys/libkern.h,
conf/files: Add bsearch.c, which is needed for some of the
new table lookup routines.
aic7xxx_freebsd.c: Define AHC_NEW_TRAN_SETTINGS if
CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE is defined.
sbuf.h,
subr_sbuf.c: Add the appropriate #ifdefs so sbufs can
compile and run in userland.
Change sbuf_printf() to use vsnprintf()
instead of kvprintf(), which is only available
in the kernel.
Change the source string for sbuf_cpy() and
sbuf_cat() to be a const char *.
Add __BEGIN_DECLS and __END_DECLS around
function prototypes since they're now exported
to userland.
kdump/mkioctls: Include stdio.h before cam.h since cam.h now
includes a function with a FILE * argument.
