Not easily from the kernel now, but it's always possible to make certain bits of information more readily available for use inside the kernel. It seems to make sense to have GEOMs export label information through g_getattr(). This allows the label to come from every GEOM that possibly can have labels, without the need to add explicit support... --=20 Marcel Moolenaar xcllnt@mac.com
