Now I know that there was talk of moving it to the release/Makefile or the
etc/Makefile, but I don't think it was ever decided where.

the values that it doesn't print by defaults. This seems wrong. I want
to be able to see the total number of sectors more than edit it. The
default d_secperunit of (sectors/track * tracks/cylinder * cylinders) is
bogus if sectors/track is only an approximation and more bogus if
sectors/track and tracks/cylinder are dummy values such as 4096 and 1
to defeat ufs's pessimizations.
labels.
Please test the slice/label features:
cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV svn0
cd /var/tmp; dd if=/dev/zero of=vnfile bs=8192 count=1024
vnconfig -c /dev/rvn0 /var/tmp/vnfile
fdisk /dev/rvn0 # invent a geometry, create one BSD partition
disklabel -r -w vn0 floppy # a convenient (bogus) label
disklabel -e vn0 # edit label to match device
newfs /dev/rvn0a
mount /dev/vn0a /mnt
...
The steps after the fdisk could name the device vn0s1 instead of vn0.
Fix the sign of the adjustment after writing a label.
Writing of labels should work now.
Merge adjust_label() into fixlabel(). Detect more errors and don't
write if there is an error. Adjust sectors/unit and total sectors
to the numbers on the slice.
Add a function dsname() to print slice device names consistently, and
use it.
If you invoke config with the `-n' flag or have NO_CONFIG_CLOBBER in
your environment, config will behave the same way it used to. This is
now _documented_ as well. Rip out all the CONFIG_DONT_CLOBBER cruft;
some of it wasn't even correct anyway.
PCI BIOS mappings are retained, except if option PCI_REMAP
is specified in the kernel config file.
There is now a list of attach addresses, and the first
address that seems to make some device registers appear
is chosen.

Removed screensavers from syscons, they are now LKM's. This makes it
possible to do some really "interesting" screensavers...
Fixed bug that sometimes caused garbage to appear when leaving
"scroll-lock" history.
Reformattet indentation, it got too deep for a normal 80 pos screen.
Split up in syscons.c & syscons.h for use with the saver-lkm's.
Temporarily removed -s option from vidcontrol, savers should now
be loaded with modload.

this. This allows paging on large (>2GB) filesystems.

Use request==VM_ALLOC_NORMAL rather than object!=kmem_object in deciding
if the caller is "important" in vm_page_alloc(). Also established a new
low threshold for non-interrupt allocations via cnt.v_interrupt_free_min.
vm_pageout.c:
Various algorithmic cleanup. Some calculations simplified. Initialize
cnt.v_interrupt_free_min to 2 pages.

Various more tweaks from John Dyson to improve read ahead calculations.

Only wakeup if numoutput is 0 in vwakeup().

metadata aren't thrashed by regular file I/O.
Added mechanism to limit the amount of outstanding I/O on a given vnode.
Pagedaemon wakeup policy changed to skew priority a little in favor of
file caching.
Slight code reorganization to improve clarity.
Added a few more comments.
