a0bee57f34 make_plex_dev: make them raw. Volume-related plex devices will
probably die a death soon (yes, DES, that's correct usage).

14c3e50601 Remove code to detect RAID-5/non-RAID-5 kernel modules.
Add function definition for readpol command.

Rewrite make_devices with a view to incremental making.  In the
process, effectively kill off plex-bound subdisk device numbers.

83880cb904 Modify device numbering method to work with latest -CURRENT. Briefly,
the device numbers are now minor number only, so that we can still
compare them after dev_t has turned into a blob.

1adddabe0f Change the name of the s option to indicate that it wears more than
one hat.

Add -n option for specifying names of volumes created with the
simplified commands.

Add function find_drive_by_devname to help the simplified
configuration commands.

505f21361b Maintain a log file, by default /var/log/vinum.history, showing what
has been done.  This name can be overridden by the value of the
VINUM_HISTORY environment variable.

Print dates in log file according to the variable VINUM_DATEFORMAT, by
default %e %b %Y %H:%M:%S.

b8d0fb1938 If the wrong version of vinum(8) has been started (i.e. non-RAID-5
when the kernel module is RAID-5, or the other way round), execve()
the correct one.

Add \n to an error message.

ed579de08d If we fail to open the super device, open the "wrong" device (that is,
the debug superdevice when we're compiled without debug, or the normal
superdevice when we're compiled with debug.  If this succeeds, print
an informative comment and exit.

make_devices: Create both debug and normal superdevices.

Wait4 zombies.

make_devices: Don't try if the /dev directory is mounted read-only.

Format a couple of multiline comments conformant with style(9).

8eec767f72 Check for both kinds of Vinum module (with and without RAID-5). Using
the wrong module can cause confusion, including loading both versions
(which conflict with each other) and incorrect ioctls, which cause
unintelligible error messages.

Extend 'start' command: if used without any parameters, vinum scans
all disks known to devstat for vinum drives and reads their
configuration.
