bioctl(8): Xr ataraid(4), mpii(4) && mfii(4);

Remove workaround for ancient HTML generation code.

Note which version it appeared in before the rewrite.
Bump date.

Add comma in enumeration.

Add mpt reference, as support for this device was added recently

Rebase to HEAD as of a few days ago.

this commit was splitted into small chunks to avoid
a limitation of cvs.  ("Protocol error: too many arguments")

Port bioctl(8) and arcmsr(4) from current:
bioctl(8): Rewritten to handle new features like creating/removing
	hot-spare, pass-through disks and RAID volumes, start/stop
	consistency checks in volumes and others.
arcmsr(4): Added support to create/remove hot-spare, pass-through
	disks and RAID volumes, start/stop consistency checks
	in volumes as well as showing information about physical
	disks (even if they are marked as hot-spare, pass-through
	or unused).

Sync w/ -current. 34 merge conflicts to follow.

Various improvements (mdoc, wording, punctuation).

fix example (from anon ymous)

Typo in previous.

Improve usage() and manpage commands/args.

Add two examples to create and remove a RAID volume in a supported
controller... such as arcmsr(4) for now.

New bioctl(8) first appeared on 5.0 not 4.1.

sync with HEAD

Rewrite bioctl(8) and add support for the following features:

- Ability to add/remove hot-spare disks (previously only 'add' was accepted).
- Ability to add/remove pass-through disks.
- Ability to create/remove RAID volumes with optional size, stripe, level,
  member disks and others.
- Ability to start/stop consistency checks in a RAID volume.
- Ability to show only information about physical disks, volumes or both.

Rather than using multiple flags, the utility has been modified to use
the same mode than dkctl(8) (and maybe others), i.e:

$ ./bioctl
usage: bioctl device command [arg [...]]
Available commands:
  show [disks] | [volumes]
  alarm [enable] | [disable] | [silence] | [test]
  blink start | stop [channel:target[.lun]]
  hotspare add | remove channel:target.lun
  passthru add DISKID | remove channel:target.lun
  check start | stop VOLID
  create volume VOLID DISKIDs [SIZE] STRIPE RAID_LEVEL channel:target.lun
  remove volume VOLID channel:target.lun
$

I'll add support for other features soon.

file bioctl.8 was added on branch mjf-devfs on 2008-02-18 21:04:16 +0000

- Remove -D flag... it's useless (it was removed in OpenBSD as well).
- Use errx(3) in the appropiate function rather than warn(4) and
  returning EXIT_SUCCESS all the time.
- Remove another case where it checks the device passed string will be
  the same than in bv_dev.

Mention arcmsr(4) in SEE ALSO.

- Remove the code for softraid, it's unlikely that NetBSD will support
  this because we do have a working raidframe(4).
- Miscellaneous cleanups and make the code WARNS=4 compliant.
- Removed all stuff that doesn't apply to NetBSD.

Clean up after a mistake I made pulling up ticket #1838.  We
really only need one copy of each new file.  :-)

Fix typo.
Add bio(4) and associated bioctl(8) from OpenBSD, a driver control block
device controllers, and more specifically raid controllers.
Add a new sensor type, ENVSYS_DRIVE, to report drive status. From OpenBSD.
Add bio and sysmon support to mfi(4). This allow userland to query
status for drives and logical volumes attached to a mfi(4) controller. While
there fix some debug printfs in mfi so they compile.
