thorpej a246f6c835 Fixup some RCS ids. 1996-02-22 06:50:49 +00:00
thorpej 5b39541e48 New generic disk framework. Highlights:
- New metrics handling.  Metrics are now kept in the new
	  `struct disk'.  Busy time is now stored as a timeval, and
	  transfer count in bytes.

	- Storage for disklabels is now dynamically allocated, so that
	  the size of the disk structure is not machine-dependent.

	- Several new functions for attaching and detaching disks, and
	  handling metrics calculation.

Old-style instrumentation is still supported in drivers that did it before.
However, old-style instrumentation is being deprecated, and will go away
once the userland utilities are updated for the new framework.

For usage and architectural details, see the forthcoming disk(9) manual
page.
