g_nop_create: destroy newly created provider in case of errors.

2004-09-16T15:28:48Z

NOP class doesn't operate on metadata, so the spoil event can be safely

ignored.

Tag all geom classes in the tree with a version number.

- Fix unloading by the same way it is done in my other classes:

set gp->softc to NULL and return ENXIO when it is NULL, so GEOM will not panic or hang, but unload one device on every 'unload'. This make 'unload' command usable, but it have to be executed + 1 times. - Made use of 'pp' variable.

- Add '-S' option, which allow to specify sector size for transparent

provider. - Bump version number. This allows for a quite interesting trick. One can setup a stripe with stripe size of 512 bytes and create transparent provider on top of it with sector size equal to * 512. The result will be something like RAID3 without parity disk (every access will touch all disks).

Improve geom(8)'s 'list' command to show geoms and their providers and

consumers. Teach STRIPE, CONCAT and NOP classes about this improvement.

MFp4: Add two options for gnop(8)'s 'create' command:

2004-07-19T07:52:56Z

-o offset - specifies where to start on the original provider -s size - specifies size of the transparent provider

Fix format string.
