+.Sh NAME
+.Nm dm
+.Nd Device-mapper disk driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "pseudo-device dm"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides the capability of creating one or more virtual disks
+based on the target mapping.
+.Pp
+This document assumes that you're familiar with how to generate
+kernels, how to properly configure disks and pseudo-devices in a
+kernel configuration file, and how to partition disks.
+This driver is used by the Linux lvm2tools to create and manage
+lvm in
+.Nx .
+.Pp
+Currently, the
+.Pa linear , zero ,
+and
+.Pa error
+targets are implemented.
+Each component partition should be offset at least 2 sectors
+from the beginning of the component disk.
+This avoids potential conflicts between the component disk's
+disklabel and
+.Nm Ap s
+disklabel.
+In i386 it is offset by 65 sectors, where 63 sectors are the initial
+boot sectors and 2 sectors are used for the disklabel which is set
+to be read-only.
+.Pp
+In order to compile in support for
+.Nm ,
+you must add a line similar to the following to your kernel
+configuration file:
+.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
+pseudo-device	dm	 #device-mapper disk device
+.Ed
+.Pp
+.Nm
+may create linear mapped devices, zero, and error block devices.
+Zero and error block devices are used mostly for testing.
+.Pa Linear
+devices are used to create virtual disks with linearly mapped virtual
+blocks to blocks on real disk.
+.Nm
+Device-mapper devices are controlled through the
+.Pa /dev/mapper/control
+device.
+For controlling this device
+.Xr ioctl 2
+calls are used.
+For the implementation of the communication channel,
+the
+.Xr proplib 3
+library is used.
+The protocol channel is defined as a proplib dictionary with needed
+values.
+For more details, look at
+.Pa sys/dev/dm/netbsd-dm.h .
+Before any device can be used, every device-mapper disk device must
+be initialized.
+For initialization one line must be passed to the kernel driver in
+the form of a proplib dictionary.
+Every device can have more than one table active.
+An example for such a line is:
+.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
+0 10240 linear /dev/wd1a 384
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The first parameter is the start sector for the table defined with
+this line, the second is the length in sectors which is described
+with this table.
+The third parameter is the target name.
+All other parts of this line depend on the chosen target.
+.Pp
+For the linear target, there are two additional parameters:
+The fourth parameter describes the disk device to which the
+device-mapper disk is mapped.
+The fifth parameter is the offset on this disk from the start of
+the disk/partition.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The device-mapper disk driver first appeared in
+.Nx 6.0 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An Adam Hamsik Aq Mt haad@NetBSD.org
+implemented the device-mapper driver for
+.Nx .

+.An Reinoud Zandijk Aq Mt reinoud@NetBSD.org ,
+and
+.An Bill Stouder-Studenmund Aq Mt wrstuden@NetBSD.org
+provided guidance and answered questions about the
+.Nx
+implementation.
+.Sh BUGS
+This driver is still a work-in-progress \(em there can be bugs.
