1831a90ac5 Bring in geom_sched, support for scheduling disk I/O requests
in a device independent manner. Also include an example anticipatory
scheduler, gsched_rr, which gives very nice performance improvements
in presence of competing random access patterns.

This is joint work with Fabio Checconi, developed last year
and presented at BSDCan 2009. You can find details in the
README file or at

b3f9d8c804 Add gmountver, disk mount verification GEOM class.
Note that due to e.g. write throttling ('wdrain'), it can stall all the disk
I/O instead of just the device it's configured for.  Using it for removable
media is therefore not a good idea.

c0b9797aa8 Import the gvinum work that have been done during and after Summer of Code 2007.
The work have been under testing and fixing since then, and it is mature enough
to be put into HEAD for further testing.

A lot have changed in this time, and here are the most important:
- Gvinum now uses one single workerthread instead of one thread for each
  volume and each plex. The reason for this is that the previous scheme was
  very complex, and was the cause of many of the bugs discovered in gvinum.
  Instead, gvinum now uses one worker thread with an event queue, quite
  similar to what used in gmirror.
- The rebuild/grow/initialize/parity check routines no longer runs in
  separate threads, but are run as regular I/O requests with special flags.
  This made it easier to support mounted growing and parity rebuild.
- Support for growing striped and raid5-plexes, meaning that one can extend the
  volumes for these plex types in addition to the concat type. Also works while
  the volume is mounted.
- Implementation of many of the missing commands from the old vinum:
  attach/detach, start (was partially implemented), stop (was partially
  implemented), concat, mirror, stripe, raid5 (shortcuts for creating volumes
  with one plex of these organizations).
- The parity check and rebuild no longer goes between userland/kernel, meaning
  that the gvinum command will not stay and wait forever for the rebuild to
  finish. You can instead watch the status with the list command.
- Many problems with gvinum have been reported since 5.x, and some has been hard
  to fix due to the complicated architecture. Hopefully, it should be more
  stable and better handle edge cases that previously made gvinum crash.
- Failed drives no longer disappears entirely, but now leave behind a dummy
  drive that makes sure the original state is not forgotten in case the system
  is rebooted between drive failures/swaps.
- Update manpage to reflect new commands and extend it with some examples.

5d68db5bc8 Add the EBR scheme. The EBR scheme supports the Extended Boot Records
found inside extended partitions and used to create logical partitions.
At this time write/modify support is not (yet) present.
The EBR and MBR schemes both check the parent scheme. The MBR will
back-off when nested under another MBR, whereas the EBR only nests
under a MBR.

e770bc6bf5 First cut at GEOM based multipath. This is an active/passive{/passive...}
arrangement that has no intrinsic internal knowledge of whether devices
it is given are truly multipath devices. As such, this is a simplistic
approach, but still a useful one.

The basic approach is to (at present- this will change soon) use camcontrol
to find likely identical devices and and label the trailing sector of the
first one. This label contains both a full UUID and a name. The name is
what is presented in /dev/multipath, but the UUID is used as a true
distinguishor at g_taste time, thus making sure we don't have chaos
on a shared SAN where everyone names their data multipath as "Fred".

The first of N identical devices (and N *may* be 1!) becomes the active
path until a BIO request is failed with EIO or ENXIO. When this occurs,
the active disk is ripped away and the next in a list is picked to
(retry and) continue with.

During g_taste events new disks that meet the match criteria for existing
multipath geoms get added to the tail end of the list.

Thus, this active/passive setup actually does work for devices which
go away and come back, as do (now) mpt(4) and isp(4) SAN based disks.

There is still a lot to do to improve this- like about 5 of the 12
recommendations I've received about it,  but it's been functional enough
for a while that it deserves a broader test base.

04c7da702f A GEOM cache can speed up read performance by sending fixed size
read requests to its consumer.  It has been developed to address
the problem of a horrible read performance of a 64k blocksize FS
residing on a RAID3 array with 8 data components, where a single
disk component would only get 8k read requests, thus effectively
killing disk performance under high load.  Documentation will be
provided later.  I'd like to thank Vsevolod Lobko for his bright
ideas, and Pawel Jakub Dawidek for helping me fix the nasty bug.

e30534d50b Since we want a vinum geom created anytime the module loads, move
the geom creation to a seperate init function and ignore the tasting.

The config is now parsed only in the vinumdrive geom, which hopefully
fixes the problem, that the drive class tasted before the vinum class
had a chance, for good.

Also restore the behaviour that the module can be loaded at boot time
and on a running system.

df5175af0f Shuffle around the order in which the components are compiled.
This way, the VINUMDRIVE class is loaded before the VINUM class,
but since geom does the tasting for newly arrived classes
last-in-first-out, the VINUM class tastes first.

This removes the need to call gv_parse_config() in the drive
taste path.

On BIO_READ request it zero-fills bio_data and on BIO_WRITE it does nothing.
You can also set kern.geom.zero.clear sysctl to 0 to do nothing even for

e1237b285b Introduce GEOM_LABEL class.
This class is used for detecting volume labels on file systems:
UFS, MSDOSFS (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32) and ISO9660.
It also provide native labelization (there is no need for file system).

g_label_ufs.c is based on geom_vol_ffs from Gordon Tetlow.
g_label_msdos.c and g_label_iso9660.c are probably hacks, I just found
where volume labels are stored and I use those offsets here,
but with this class it should be easy to do it as it should be done by
someone who know how.
Implementing volume labels detection for other file systems also should
be trivial.

New providers are created in those directories:
/dev/ufs/ (UFS1, UFS2)
/dev/msdosfs/ (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32)
/dev/iso9660/ (ISO9660)
/dev/label/ (native labels, configured with glabel(8))

Simon L. Nielsen, who was, as always, very helpful. Thanks!
