to create/resize an aligned one failed. This simplifies the code
and prevents surprises. If the user wants an unaligned partition
in the case where an aligned one fails, they can simply retry the
command without the "-a" option. This change was requested by
wiz@, and after some thought I agree with it.
- s/-b number/-b blocknr/
- s/-s count/-s sectors/
- s/-p count/-p partitions/
In the program:
- s/-b lba/-b blocknr/
- s/-s lba/-s sectors/
This makes the documentation in the manpage and the program consistent
and makes it more clear what the parameters are. Also, "-s lba" was
just plain wrong since LBA stands for Logical Block Address[ing], and
the -s option didn't represent any kind of address, but rather a size.
-a alignment -- attempt to align the start and size of the partition
-l label -- supply a label for the partition
These options were inspired by FreeBSD's gpart(8) command, but the
code was written by me.
uuid_create_nil(3) and uuid_is_nil(3) take a uuid_t*, not a pointer to
an array of bytes merely casted to compatible type.
Additonally, there no need for extra casts and address-of operations when
using le_uuid_*() functions.
Furthermore, le_uuid_*() are identical to uuid_*_le functions in
libc/libuuid, so use those instead on NetBSD.
swap, ffs, lfs, raidframe, ccd and cgd. gpt(8) now defaults to
NetBSD ffs if no type is given, but previous FreeBSD types are
still recognized in the DKWEDGE_AUTODISCOVER code.
