shown that it is not useful.
Rename the relative count g_access_rel() function to g_access(), only
the name has changed.
Change all g_access_rel() calls in our CVS tree to call g_access() instead.
Add an #ifndef BURN_BRIDGES #define of g_access_rel() for source
code compatibility.
test is built to test GEOM as running in the kernel.
This commit is basically "unifdef -D_KERNEL" to remove the mainly #include
related code to support the userland-harness.
don't take the detour over the I/O path to discover them using getattr(),
we can just pick them out directly.
Do note though, that for now they are only valid after the first open
of the underlying disk device due compatibility with the old disk_create()
API. This will change in the future so they will always be valid.

with support for trying, doing and forcing.
This will eventually replace g_slice_addslice() which gets changed from
grabbing topology to requing it in this commit as well.

is currently conditional on both the GEOM and GEOM_GPT options to
avoid getting GPT by default and having the MBR and GPT classes
clash.
The correct behaviour of the MBR class would be to back-off (reject)
a MBR if it's a Protective MBR (a MBR with a single partition of type
0xEE that spans the whole disk (as far as the MBR is concerned).
The correct behaviour if the GPT class would be to back-off (reject)
a GPT if there's a MBR that's not a Protective MBR.
At this stage it's inconvenient to destroy a good MBR when working
with GPTs that it's more convenient to have the MBR class back-off
when it detects the GPT signature on disk and have the GPT class
ignore the MBR.
In sys/gpt.h UUIDs (GUIDs) for the following FreeBSD partitions
have been defined:
GPT_ENT_TYPE_FREEBSD
FreeBSD slice with disklabel. This is the equivalent of
the well-known FreeBSD MBR partition type.
GPT_ENT_TYPE_FREEBSD_{SWAP|UFS|UFS2|VINUM}
FreeBSD partitions in the context of disklabel. This is
speculating on the idea to use the GPT to hold partitions
instead if slices and removing the fixed (and low) limits
we have on the number of partitions.
This commit lacks a GPT image for the regression suite.
