H A DMakefileb2b21931 Mon May 29 01:21:38 GMT 2006 beck <beck@openbsd.org> Make chio have a connection between st(4) devices and "drives" in a
changer - chio will then attempt to open the /dev/rstX device when doing
a move from a source of drive X, and will attempt to unload the tape.
this avoids issues where pickers madly attempt to grab a busy tape on
completely decoupled libraries, or fail to grab an unloaded tape
on tightly coupled libraries, the extra unload being harmless if the
media has already been ejected.

The mapping between st(4) devices and ch drives is by default a
simple mapping between picker drive X being mapped to /dev/rstX, however
for non-obvious or complicated configurations, we support a /etc/chio.conf
file in which the drives for a changer may have their corresponding
st(4) devices defined individually. chio will use the default
mapping if the /etc/chio.conf file is not present, or does not define
a st(4) device for a changer drive.

(example chio.conf and man page changes to come)
