and the metadata required to interpret it. Callers of namei must now
create a pathbuf and pass it to NDINIT (instead of a string and a
uio_seg), then destroy the pathbuf after the namei session is
complete.
Update all namei call sites accordingly. Add a pathbuf(9) man page and
update namei(9).
The pathbuf interface also now appears in a couple of related
additional places that were passing string/uio_seg pairs that were
later fed into NDINIT. Update other call sites accordingly.
pointer to dm_target_t because that is the only part of dm which know real
block device. disk_ioctl_switch parses whole device table and for every
entry it calls particular sync routine which propagates DIOCCACHESYNC
to real disk.
While I was here implement some KNF fixes and remove unneeded symbols from
dm.h.
Problem reported on port-xen@ by Hugo Silva.
Loosely based on patch from Brian Brombacher,
with other inspriation from vnd(4).
This should fix PR kern/42799.
While here, a few prototype, style and namespace pollution-related changes.
to not use prop_dictionary_copy* functions if NetBSD_DM_IOCTL command was
not called on device. If disk_ioctl returms anything else then ENOTTY exit
from dmioctl.
routines used by autoconf users. Change dm_dev_remove_ioctl to call dm_detach.
This should be primary used by kernel to disable devices during shutdown of
system with nested disk devices.

this breaks abstraction. Because only lvmtools/lvmlib and device-mapper can
have knowledge about target mapping and libdevmapper only passes requests
from lvmtools to kernel and back. Bump major library and driver version.

allocated with length DM_MAX_PARAMS_SIZE and released with strlen + 1 size.
Disable KM_NOSLEEP allocation because we do not need them here there is
nothing critical in ioctl part of dm driver.
Bug reported by jak@.
- Limit accesses to the size of the volume.
This fixes a KASSERT in physio_biodone().
- Change dm_table_size() to return the size of the volume in
DEV_BSIZE units. It was reporting it in DEV_BSIZE^2 units.
- Remove a bit of trailing whitespace.

partutil.c::getdiskinfo to use it to get disk geometry info.
Use DIOCGWEDGEINFO ioctl to get information about partition size, if disk
driver doesn't support it use old DIOCGDINFO. This patch adds support for
wedge like devices(lvm logical volumes, ZFS zvol partitions) to newfs and
other tools.
No objections on tech-userlevel@.
Create proplib param dictionary entry in libdevmapper and pass it to dm in
dm_ioctl dict.
Param target is then passed to target init function, where is parse. I like
this aproach much better than passing char **argv and trusting to user input.
I have bumped minor lib/driver version.
XXX. Add more sanity checks in kernel.
