struct disk_sectoralign {
/* First aligned sector number. */

/* Number of sectors per aligned unit. */
uint32_t dsa_alignment;
};
- Teach wd(4) to get it from ATA.
- Teach cgd(4) to pass it through from the underlying disk.
- Teach dk(4) to pass it through with adjustments.
- Teach zpool (zfs) to take advantage of it.
=> XXX zpool doesn't seem to understand when the vdev's starting
sector is misaligned.
Missing:
- ccd(4) and raidframe(4) support -- these should support _using_
DIOCGSECTORALIGN to decide where to start putting ccd or raid
stripes on disk, and these should perhaps _implement_
DIOCGSECTORALIGN by reporting the stripe/interleave factor.
- sd(4) support -- I don't know any obvious way to get it from SCSI,
but if any SCSI wizards know better than I, please feel free to
teach sd(4) about it!
- any ld(4) attachments -- might be worth teaching the ld drivers for
nvme and various raid controllers to get the aligned sector size
There's some duplicate logic here for now. I'm doing it this way,
rather than gathering the logic into a new disklabel_sectoralign
function or something, so that this change is limited to adding a new
ioctl, without any new kernel symbols, in order to make it easy to
pull up to netbsd-9 without worrying about the module ABI.

NetBSD
NetBSD is a free, fast, secure, and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system. It is available for a wide range of platforms, from large-scale servers and powerful desktop systems to handheld and embedded devices.
Building
You can cross-build NetBSD from most UNIX-like operating systems. To build for amd64 (x86_64), in the src directory:
./build.sh -U -u -j4 -m amd64 -O ~/obj release
Additional build information available in the BUILDING file.
Binaries
Testing
On a running NetBSD system:
cd /usr/tests; atf-run | atf-report
Troubleshooting
- Send bugs and patches via web form.
- Subscribe to the mailing lists. The netbsd-users list is a good choice for many problems; watch current-users if you follow the bleeding edge of NetBSD-current.
- Join the community IRC channel #netbsd @ freenode.
