geom_part

[Dmitry Marakasov]

Hi!

I've upgraded one of my boxes to current recently and ran into some
problems with new geom_part.

First, it's impossible to edit bsd label online.

# bsdlabel -e /dev/ad8
[edit]
bsdlabel: Class not found
re-edit the label? [y]: 

Setting sysctl kern.geom.debugflags to 16 helps.

Next, it's no longer possible to use nested configuration. If I add
bsd label to, say, /dev/ad8f, no subpartitions (ad8fa, ad8fd ...)
will be shown. They pop up after loading geom_bsd.

Finally, seems like bsd label support is broken:

# bsdlabel /dev/ad8
# /dev/ad8:
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  a:  2097152        0    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28528 
  b: 20971520  2097152      swap                    
  c: 390721968        0    unused        0     0         # "raw" part, don't edit
  d: 20971520 23068672    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28528 
  e:  2097152 44040192    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28528 
  f: 20971520 46137344    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28528 
  g: 41943040 67108864    unused        0     0       
  h: 281670064 109051904    unused        0     0       

# ls /dev/ad8*
/dev/ad8	/dev/ad8b	/dev/ad8e	/dev/ad8g
/dev/ad8a	/dev/ad8d	/dev/ad8f

No h partition!
