lower extremities.
Setting bit 4 in debugflags (sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16) will
allow any open to succeed on rank#1 providers. This will generally
correspond to the physical disk devices: ad0, da0, md0 etc.
This fundamentally violates the mechanics of GEOMs autoconfiguration,
and is only provided as a debugging facility, so obviously error
reports on GEOM where this bit is or has been set will not be
accepted.
Kill the slightly bogus #define for DECODE_PROTOTYPE
Be less verbose. Hide most (all I hope) of the CIS
parsing behind cardbus_debug_cis (which is set with
hw.cardbus.debug_cis=1).
This doesn't fix problems with parsing, but should make cardbus
less chatty. There appears to be some issues still with the
parsing of the CIS, but this won't fix them.
Prompted by: scottl
Second part of the kldload patches for cardbus. This makes
kldload of a driver for a device that's inserted now appears
to work. To make it work, we only do a power cycle of the card
if there's no children drivers attached.
This likely is papering over bogosities in the power system. The
power sequence needs to be re-written, so I'll not worry about
the papering over until the re-write.
devd later in the boot process. This should fix all the problems
people have had with those commits. Diskless should be working again,
and those that mount /usr with nfs should be able to do that again too.
critical remote systems. This lets us run commands from devd that
aren't on the / partition. This also means we can remove some kludges
from the networking startup that I added a while ago that caused other
problems.
There's still a race in starting devd that needs to be fixed in devd
so that things present at boot will be configured by the time devd
does daemon(). That race will be fixed later.
device node exists directly to see if OLDCARD is compiled into the
kernel. This eliminates the scary warning that people using NEWCARD
are seeing when they have pccard_enable=YES in their /etc/rc.conf
files.
disk I/O processing.
The intent is that the disk driver in its hardware interrupt
routine will simply schedule the bio on the task queue with
a routine to finish off whatever needs done.
The g_up thread will then schedule this routine, the likely
outcome of which is a biodone() which queues the bio on
g_up's regular queue where it will be picked up and processed.
Compared to the using the regular taskqueue, this saves one
contextswitch.
Change our scheduling of the g_up and g_down queues to be water-tight,
at the cost of breaking the userland regression test-shims.
Input and ideas from: scottl
Cut up requests into smaller bits if they are longer than the drivers
disk->d_maxsize or dev->si_iosize_max.
Properly handle the race condition when using g_clone_bio() is used
without having the single-threadedness of g_down/g_up secure locking.
More work likely needs to happen. This describes things better than
the old "this man page intentionally left blank" style man page that
I'd committed previously.

and d_stripesisze;
Introduce si_stripesize and si_stripeoffset in struct cdev so we
can make the visible to clustering code.
Add stripesize and stripeoffset to providers.
DTRT with stripesize and stripeoffset in various places in GEOM.
