# 134824 05-Sep-2004 phk

For removable devices without media we set a zero mediasize but a non-zero
sectorsize in order to avoid a lot of checks around various divisions etc.

Enforce the sectorsize being > 0 with a KASSERT on successful open.

Fix scsi_cd.c to return 2k sectors when no media inserted.


# 112509 23-Mar-2003 phk

A note about which #include files may be used where.


# 110710 11-Feb-2003 phk

Better names for struct disk elements: d_maxsize, d_stripeoffset
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.


# 110592 09-Feb-2003 phk

Update the statistics collection code to track busy time instead of
idle time.

Statistics now default to "on" and can be turned off with
sysctl kern.geom.collectstats=0

Performance impact of statistics collection is on the order of
800 nsec per consumer/provider set on a 700MHz Athlon.


# 110523 07-Feb-2003 phk

Commit the correct copy of the g_stat structure.

Add debug.sizeof.g_stat sysctl.

Set the id field of the g_stat when we create consumers and providers.

Remove biocount from consumer, we will use the counters in the g_stat
structure instead. Replace one field which will need to be atomically
manipulated with two fields which will not (stat.nop and stat.nend).

Change add companion field to bio_children: bio_inbed for the exact
same reason.

Don't output the biocount in the confdot output.

Fix KASSERT in g_io_request().

Add sysctl kern.geom.collectstats defaulting to off.

Collect the following raw statistics conditioned on this sysctl:

for each consumer and provider {
total number of operations started.
total number of operations completed.
time last operation completed.
sum of idle-time.
for each of BIO_READ, BIO_WRITE and BIO_DELETE {
number of operations completed.
number of bytes completed.
number of ENOMEM errors.
number of other errors.
sum of transaction time.
}
}

API for getting hold of these statistics data not included yet.
