Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
This feature comes from the fact that we rely memory-backed md(4)
in our build process heavily. However, if the build goes haywire
the allocated resources (i.e. swap and memory-backed md(4)'s) need
to be purged. It is extremely useful to have ability to attach
arbitrary labels to each of the virtual disks so that they can
be identified and GC'ed if neecessary.

Add -o [no]verify option to mdconfig (and document in man page.)
Implement GEOM attribute MNT::verified to ask md if the backing vnode is
verified.
Check for MNT::verified in cd9660 mount to flag the mount as MNT_VERIFIED if
the underlying device has been verified.

When returning md(4) device details to the caller, include the file name in
any MD_PRELOAD type devices if it is set (first character is not NUL.)
In mdconfig, for "preload" type md(4) devices, if there is file config
available, print it in the file column of the output.

- Use MD_NAME instead of "md".

- The feature is dangerous because the kernel code didn't check
validity of the memory address provided from user space.
- It seems that mdconfig(8) never really supported attaching preloaded
memory disks.
- Preloaded memory disks are automatically attached during md(4)
initialization. Thus there shouldn't be much use for the feature.

by removing the ordering requirements and adding more descriptive error
messages; it also makes it more readable and maintainable.

This change is temporary. Complete fix will be commited soon.

a problem with listing large number of md(4) devices. Either 'list' or
'query' mode uses XML.
Additionally, new functionality was introduced. It's possible to pass
multiple devices to -u:
# ./mdconfig -l -u md0,md1

kernel is in the order the devices were made, which is not useful to
the user. Also, remove the "%d more" test since the kernel does not
return the complete count in md_pad[0] (maybe it should?).

through the use of the access(2) system call. If this check fails returning
EACCES, EPERM or EROFS then gracefully downgrade the access to read only. Also
print a warning message to stderr, informing the user that the access mode
they requested is not available.
This behavior used to be handled by md(4) but was changed in revision 1.154

After this change it should be possible to use very big md(4) devices.
- Clean up and simplify the code a bit.
- Use humanize_number(3) to print size of md(4) devices.
- Add 't' suffix which stands for terabyte.
- Make '-S' to really work with all types of devices.
- Other minor changes.
