e68909854c - Add md_provsize field to metadata, which will help with
shared-last-sector problem.
  After this change, even if there is more than one provider with the same
  last sector, the proper one will be chosen based on its size.
  It still doesn't fix the 'c' partition problem (when da0s1 can be confused
  with da0s1c) and situation when 'a' partition starts at offset 0
  (then da0s1a can be confused with da0s1 and da0s1c). One can use '-h'
  option there, when creating device or avoid sharing last sector.
  Actually, when providers share the same last sector and their size is equal,
  they provide exactly the same data, so the name (da0s1, da0s1a, da0s1c)
  isn't important at all.
- Provide backward compatibility.
- Update copyright's year.

53ed4e0d54 - Turn off 'fast' mode by default and increase maximum memory to consume
when this mode is used.

201dfcf143 This is not needed anymore, it is forced in GEOM now.
Actually, it can even cause some problems, because GEOM requires sectorsize
to be more than 0 on first access, not on provider creation, so we can skip
valid providers by doing this check here.

4ffa3fef69 Fix one of the lastest commit. This bio_caller1 should also be changed to
bio_driver1 (as all the rest).
This introduced a small memory leak, but it wasn't really critical,
because maximum memory for g_stripe_zone is always set, so after few
requests gstripe was working in "economic" mode.

6c74f5177c - Introduce option for hardcoding providers' names into metadata.
It allows to fix problems when last provider's sector is shared between few
  providers.
- Bump version number for CONCAT and STRIPE and add code for backward
  compatibility.
- Do not bump version number of MIRROR, as it wasn't officially introduced yet.
  Even if someone started to play with it, there is no big deal, because
  wrong MD5 sum of metadata will deny those providers.
- Update manual pages.
- Add version history to g_(stripe|concat).h files.

7e72a70863 Do not use g_wither_geom(9). I doesn't work in the way which is expected
here anymore (after g_wither_washer() was introduced), i.e. geom and consumer
will not be immediately destroyed if possible.

bio_driver[12] should be used by the provider!

37abacd4ff Fix I/O leakage. We're cloning bios in g_stripe_start_fast(), but when
something goes wrong while running in "fast" mode, we free all bios and
falling back to "economic" mode. Freeing bios, doesn't mean decrease
bio_children, so bio_inbed couldn't be equal to bio_children and request
was never finished.
Decrease bio_children manually when destroying bios.

4c55f05b89 Implement "FAST" mode for GEOM_STRIPE class and turn it on by default.
In this mode you can setup even very small stripe size and you can be
sure that only one I/O request will be send to every disks in stripe.
It consumes some more memory, but if allocation fails, it will fall
back to "ECONOMIC" mode.

It is about 10 times faster for small stripe size than "ECONOMIC" mode
and other RAID0 implementations. It is even recommended to use this
mode and small stripe size, so our requests are always splitted.

One can still use "ECONOMIC" mode by setting kern.geom.stripe.fast to 0.
It is also possible to setup maximum memory which "FAST" mode can consume,
by setting kern.geom.stripe.maxmem from /boot/loader.conf.

a2e31b8b53 - Add 'stop' command, which works just like 'destroy' command, but sounds
less dangerous.

b09121f9e1 Introduce STRIPE GEOM class. It implements RAID0 transformation and it
is intend to be fast. Just like CONCAT class it provides manual and
auto configuration methods.
