Søren Schmidt 6ddce9039b Major update of the ATA RAID code, part 1:
Overhaul of the attach/detach code and structures, there were some nasty
bugs in the old implementation. This made it possible to collapse the
ATA/ATAPI device control structures into one generic structure.

A note here, the kernel is NOT ready for detach of active devices,
it fails all over in random places, but for inactive devices it works.
However for ATA RAID this works, since the RAID abstration layer
insulates the buggy^H^H^H^H^H^Hfragile device subsystem from the
physical disks.

Proberly detect the RAID's from the BIOS, and mark critical RAID1
arrays as such, but continue if there is enough of the mirror left
to do so.

Properly fail arrays on a live system. For RAID0 that means return EIO,
and for RAID1 it means continue on the still working part of the mirror
if possible, else return EIO.
If the state changes, log this to the console.

Allow for Promise & Highpoint controllers/arrays to coexist on the
same machine. It is not possible to distribute arrays over different
makes of controllers though.

If Promise SuperSwap enclosures are used, signal disk state on the
status LED on the front.

Misc fixes that I had lying around for various minor bugs.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
