- 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.
- 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.
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.
Use more markup.
Comment out references to safte(4) and softraid(4), which don't exist in
NetBSD.
Remove trailing whitespace.
Use macros instead of characters for HTML output (replace ">", "<"
with \*[Gt], \*[Lt]).
Sort sections.
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.
Add bio(4) to amd64 and i386 GENERIC.
