Hi, Poul-Henning
This is my DP2 box's info about 'GEOM' when power on with 'boot -v'.
GEOM: new disk da0
GEOM: new disk da1
GEOM: new disk da2
MBR Slice 1 on da0:

I am studying your geom code, let me talk my understanding firstly:
'geoms' is a globe var, from the above info and code, my point is:
begin: geoms.tqh_first=NULL, geoms.tqe_prev=&geoms.tqh_first;
end: geoms chain is
-> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> ->
geoms da0 da1 da2 Mda0 Sda0 Mda1 Sda1 Mda2 Sda2_1 Sda2_2-
^| <- <- <- <- <- <- <- <- <- <- |
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I am not sure whether this chain is right?
If we add a partition 'da0s1h' to the box, when we excute the g_attach()
function,
it will call redo_rank(). My viewpoint is that the 'DEV'(da0s1h) should
been added between 'Sda0' and 'Mda1'. Based my understanding on
'redo_rank', this function will change all the 'rank' of the elements on
the chain, right?
'ad1', 'ad2' and their branches is irrelevant to 'ad0', why their rank must
change?
Thank your help so much!
Best Regards
Ouyang Kai
