Please note that a previous version of mfid disabled the RAID
controller's Patrol Reads. The original mfid implementation was
used in a high performance environment without the need for the
data safety and integrity features that Patrol Reads provide.
If you value data safety and integrity over performance,
you should re-enable Patrol Reads.
Check if patrol is disabled:
# /usr/sbin/mfiutil -u 0 show patrol
Operation Mode: disabled
Runs Completed: 0
Current State: stopped
Turn patrol back on:
# /usr/sbin/mfiutil -u 0 patrol auto
Confirm patrol status:
# /usr/sbin/mfiutil -u 0 show patrol
Operation Mode: auto

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Fix build with src r354909 applied.
The referenced change made NO_INSTALLLIB, NO_MAN, and NO_PROFILE into
errors causing these ports that declare them and use the FreeBSD make
infrastructure as part of their build to fail.
When the offending variables occur in a BSD Makefile, NO_MAN becomes
MAN= and NO_INSTALLLIB and NO_PROFILE become MK_INSTALLLIB=no and
MK_PROFILE=no respectively. When declared in the environment they
become WITHOUT_<FOO>.
sysutils/mfid: fix version
Previous commit was supposed to be increasing PORTREVISION, not PORTVERSION.
I used the incorrect diff.
This package/port would not have built, and I do not want to touch
PORTEPOCH.

sysutils/mfid: Update to 0.02
The original implementation of mfid from Yahoo! disabled the RAID
controller's Patrol Reads. The user is given no warning that this is
happening. This update to mfid removes this functionality and comes with
a large pkg-message warning to inform the user about the previous
behavior as well as steps to re-enable Patrol Reads for their RAID card.
Thank you to Terrence Koeman for noticing this behavior, and jhb for
confirming the history of this code.
While here, change the MASTER_SITE to my LOCAL distfiles location.
MFH: 2016Q2
add new port: sysutils/mfid
mfid is a monitoring daemon for mfi raid controllers designed by our
very own jhb@ when he worked at Yahoo.
