.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Libdisk
|
|
provides an interface to the low-level disk slice and partition labels.
|
|
Most functions operate with arguments of the types
|
|
.Ql struct disk ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql struct chunk .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
While both types are mostly opaque to the programmer, the internal
|
|
structure is mentioned below for the sake of completeness.
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
struct disk {
|
|
char *name;
|
|
u_long flags;
|
|
u_long bios_cyl;
|
|
u_long bios_hd;
|
|
u_long bios_sect;
|
|
u_char *bootmgr;
|
|
u_char *boot1;
|
|
u_char *boot2;
|
|
struct chunk *chunks;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
The only flag value by now is
|
|
.Ql DISK_ON_TRACK ,
|
|
meaning that this disk is handled by the On-Track Disk Manager.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
struct chunk {
|
|
struct chunk *next;
|
|
struct chunk *part;
|
|
struct disk *disk;
|
|
long offset;
|
|
u_long size;
|
|
u_long end;
|
|
char *name;
|
|
char *oname;
|
|
chunk_e type;
|
|
int subtype;
|
|
u_long flags;
|
|
void (*private_free)(void*);
|
|
void *(*private_clone)(void*);
|
|
void *private_data;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
The
|
|
.Ql type
|
|
field can be one of the following values:
|
|
.Ql whole, unknown, fat, freebsd, extended, part, unused .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These are the valid
|
|
.Ql flag
|
|
values for a
|
|
.Ql struct chunk .
|
|
.Bl -tag -offset indent -width CHUNK_BSD_COMPATXX
|
|
.It CHUNK_PAST_1024
|
|
This chunk cannot be booted from because it extends past cylinder 1024.
|
|
.It CHUNK_BSD_COMPAT
|
|
This chunk is in the BSD-compatibility, and has a short name too, i.e.
|
|
.Ql wd0s4f -> wd0f .
|
|
.It CHUNK_BAD144
|
|
This chunk has bad144 mapping.
|
|
.It CHUNK_ALIGN
|
|
This chunk should be aligned.
|
|
.It CHUNK_IS_ROOT
|
|
This
|
|
.Ql part
|
|
is a rootfs, allocate partition
|
|
.Sq a .
|
|
.It CHUNK_ACTIVE
|
|
This is the active slice in the MBR.
|
|
.It CHUNK_FORCE_ALL
|
|
Force a dedicated disk for FreeBSD, bypassing all BIOS geometry
|
|
considerations.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ql private_data ,
|
|
.Ql private_free ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql private_clone
|
|
fields are for data private to the application, and the management
|
|
thereof. If the functions are not provided, no storage management is
|
|
done, cloning will just copy the pointer and freeing will just forget
|
|
it.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Open_Disk
|
|
will open the named disk, and return populated tree.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Clone_Disk
|
|
clones a copy of a tree. Useful for
|
|
.Dq Undo
|
|
functionality.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Free_Disk
|
|
frees a tree made with
|
|
.Fn Open_Disk
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn Clone_Disk .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Debug_Disk
|
|
prints the content of the tree to stdout.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Set_Bios_Geom
|
|
sets the geometry the bios uses.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Delete_Chunk
|
|
frees a chunk of disk_space.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Collapse_Disk,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn Collapse_Chunk
|
|
are experimental, do not use.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Create_Chunk
|
|
creates a chunk with the specified parameters.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn All_FreeBSD
|
|
makes one FreeBSD chunk covering the entire disk; if
|
|
.Ql force_all
|
|
is set, bypass all BIOS geometry considerations.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn CheckRules
|
|
returns
|
|
.Ql char*
|
|
to warnings about broken design rules in this disklayout.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Disk_Names
|
|
returns
|
|
.Ql char**
|
|
with all disk's names (wd0, wd1 ...). You must free each pointer, as
|
|
well as the array by hand.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Set_Boot_Mgr
|
|
sets this boot-manager for use on this disk. Gets written when
|
|
.Fn Write_Disk
|
|
is called.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Set_Boot_Blocks
|
|
sets the boot-blocks for use on this disk. Gets written when
|
|
.Fn Write_Disk
|
|
is called. The external variables
|
|
.Dv boot1
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv boot2
|
|
contain suitable data to be passed to this function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Write_Disk
|
|
writes all the MBRs, disklabels, bootblocks and boot managers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Cyl_Aligned
|
|
checks if
|
|
.Ql offset
|
|
is aligned on a cylinder according to the BIOS.
|
|
geometry.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Next_Cyl_Aligned
|
|

|
|
.Ql offset
|
|
up to next cylinder according to the BIOS geometry.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Prev_Cyl_Aligned

|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Track_Aligned
|
|
checks if
|
|
.Ql offset
|
|
is aligned on a track according to the BIOS geometry.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Next_Track_Aligned
|
|
rounds
|
|
.Ql offset
|
|
up to next track according to the BIOS geometry.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn Prev_Track_Aligned
|
|
checks if
|
|
.Ql offset
|
|
is aligned on a track according to the BIOS geometry.

|
creates a partition inside the given parent of the given size, and
|
|
returns a pointer to it. The first unused chunk big enough is used.

|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn MakeDev
|
|
makes the device nodes for this chunk.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn MakeDevDisk
|
|
makes the device nodes for all chunks on this disk.

|
|
returns a string to show flags.
|
|

|
|
