used to align partitions in gpart. We also try to align partitions by stripe size when creating new media. Align these two concepts by making fwsectors the same as the stripe size. Select a sensible number of heads so we wind up with about 20 cylinders. This number was selected to keep the rounding effects to a few percent while keeping the number of cylinder groups low. Sadly, it is not possible to make these numbers match the numbers used by SD card readers. There apperas to be much variation between brands so there's no one universal number. These numbers are also not aligned to the stripe size, so some performance problems may still be present when SD cards are created this way. Also, these numbers will differ from the far less common SD to ATA adapters, which present a different, but more uniform, set of numbers that also happened to match the old defaults. Nothing should change for current users. Any suboptimal performance caused by misalignment will still be there. gpart will honor the partitions that aren't on proper boudnaries, but editing the partition tables may result in different alignments being used than before when editing things natively. Ideally, there'd be some way to override these values in the disk subsystem by the user for the USB adapter use case where all "native" notions of geometry disappear. This does not implement that. |

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 ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. 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/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/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 might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/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.
