Just a report on the ida driver:

I installed a recent (0418) -current SNAP on my Compaq ProLiant box,
and it worked just fine, except for 2 issues:

1. I did what I usually do, and customized the kernel to remove all
   the devices that were not present, and that new kernel would not
   boot -- paniced right after detecting ida0. I'm currently trying to
   resolve that issue by gradually removing devices and booting to
   find out which devices it needs that I thought it didn't. 

2. The loader won't boot from the idad0s1a device. Here's the boot
   log:

ida0: ignoring completion 1000
no devsw (majdev=0 bootdev=0xa0200000)
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/idad0s1a
no such device 'idad'
setrootbyname failed
ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6

Manual root filesystem specification:
  <fstype>:<device>  Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
                       eg. ufs:/dev/da0s1a
  ?                  List valid disk boot devices
  <empty line>       Abort manual input

mountroot> ufs:/dev/id0s1a
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/id0s1a



The weird thing is that the id0s1a device isn't even present in the
/dev directory.
The ida devices present in /dev are (ls -la /dev/id* ):
