Hi, now that RAIDFrame is usuable at a module I have prepared a patch to refactor the driver to use the common dksubr code.
The patch can be found at http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/mlelstv/raidframe.diff and it includes a few other fixes too: - finding components now does proper kernel locking by using bdev_strategy, previously it would trigger an assertion in the sd driver (and maybe others). - finding components now runs in two passes to prefer wedges over raw partitions when the wedge starts at offset 0. - defer RAIDFRAME_SHUTDOWN (raidctl -u operation) to raidclose. - side effect is that 'raidctl -u' succeeds even for units that haven't been configured. The previous behaviour was to keep the embryonal unit and fail ioctl and close operations which prevents unloading of the module. - moved raidput again to raid_detach() because raid_detach_unlocked() is only called for initialized units. - use common dksubr code - the fake device softc now stores a pointer back to the real softc - no longer uses a private bufq - private disklabel and disk_busy code is gone. - some extra messages I will commit this in the next days if there is no objection.
