to enable the collection of counts of synchronous and asynchronous
reads and writes for its associated filesystem. The counts are
displayed using `mount -v'.
Ensure that buffers used for paging indicate the vnode from
which they are operating so that counts of paging I/O operations
from the filesystem are collected.
This checkin only adds the setting of the mount point for the
UFS/FFS filesystem, but it would be trivial to add the setting

Before r215687, if some withered geom or provider could not be destroyed,

it is just restarting immediately. r227009 made orphaned (withered) provider

- Improved locking and destruction process to fix crashes.
- Improved "automatic" configuration method to make it consistent and safe
by reading metadata back from all specified paths after writing to one.
- Added provider size check to reduce chance of ordering conflict with
other GEOM classes.
- Added "manual" configuration method without using on-disk metadata.
- Added "add" and "remove" commands to allow manage paths manually.
- Failed paths are no longer dropped from geom, but only marked as FAIL
and excluded from I/O operations.
- Automatically restore failed paths when all others paths are marked
as failed, for example, because of device-caused (not transport) errors.
- Added "fail" and "restore" commands to manually control FAIL flag.
- geom is now destroyed on last path disconnection.
- Added optional Active/Active mode support. Unlike Active/Passive
mode, load evenly distributed between all working paths. If supported by

That is going to offer the underlying support for a simple bump of

Right now, cpumask_t is an int, 32 bits on all our supported architecture.
cpumask_t on the other side is implemented as an array of longs, and

- amd64
- i386
- pc98
- arm
- ia64
- XEN
while the others are still missing.
Userland is believed to be fully converted with the changes contained
here.
Some technical notes:
- This commit may be considered an ABI nop for all the architectures
different from amd64 and ia64 (and sparc64 in the future)
- per-cpu members, which are now converted to cpuset_t, needs to be
accessed avoiding migration, because the size of cpuset_t should be
considered unknown
- size of cpuset_t objects is different from kernel and userland (this is
primirally done in order to leave some more space in userland to cope
with KBI extensions). If you need to access kernel cpuset_t from the
userland please refer to example in this patch on how to do that
correctly (kgdb may be a good source, for example).
- Support for other architectures is going to be added soon
- Only MAXCPU for amd64 is bumped now

Some devices - notably those with uboot - don't have an
explicit partition table (eg like Redboot's FIS.)
geom_map thus provides an easy way to export the hard-coded
flash layout as geom providers for use by filesystems and
other tools.
It also includes a "search" function which allows for
dynamic creation of partition layouts where the device only
has a single hard-coded partition. For example, if
there is a "kernel+rootfs" partition, a single image can
be created which appends the rootfs after the kernel with
an appropriate search string. geom_map can be told to
search for said search string and create a partition
beginning after it.

g_io_deliver(). In such case it increases 'pace' counter on each ENOMEM and
reschedules the request. The 'pace' counter is decreased for each request going
down, but until 'pace' is greater than zero, GEOM will handle at most 10
requests per second. For GEOM GATE users that are proxy to local GEOM providers
(like ggatel(8) and HAST) we can end up with almost permanent slow down of GEOM
down queue. This is because once we reach GEOM GATE queue limit, we return
ENOMEM to the GEOM. This means that we have, eg. 1024 I/O requests in the GEOM
GATE queue. To make room in the queue and stop returning ENOMEM we need to
proceed the requests of course, but those requests are handled by userland
daemons that handle them by reading/writing also from/to local GEOM providers.
For example with HAST, a new requests comes to /dev/hast/data, which is GEOM
GATE provider. GEOM GATE passes the request to hastd(8) and hastd(8)
reads/writes from/to /dev/da0. Once we reach GEOM GATE queue limit, to free up
a slot in GEOM GATE queue, hastd(8) has to read/write from/to /dev/da0, but
this request will also be very slow, because GEOM now slows down all the
requests. We end up with full queue that we can unload at the speed of 10
requests per second. This simply looks like a deadlock.
Fix it by allowing userland daemons that work with both GEOM GATE and local
GEOM providers to specify unlimited queue size, so GEOM GATE will never return
ENOMEM to the GEOM.

Such RAID levels are now supported:
RAID0, RAID1, RAID1E, RAID10, SINGLE, CONCAT.
For any all of these RAID levels and metadata formats this class supports
full cycle of volume operations: reading, writing, creation, deletion,

and resynchronization, bad sector recovery, faulty disks tracking,
hot-spare disks. For Intel and Promise formats there is support multiple

record the start time and reset the counter of bytes served.
We then switch to a new client after a certain amount of time or bytes,
even if the current one still has pending requests.
To avoid charging a new client the time of the first seek,
we start counting time when the first request is served.
Unfortunately a bug in the previous version of the code failed
