New Revision: 220982
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/220982

Log:
   Switch the GENERIC kernels for all architectures to the new CAM-based ATA
   stack. It means that all legacy ATA drivers are disabled and replaced by
   respective CAM drivers. If you are using ATA device names in /etc/fstab or
   other places, make sure to update them respectively (adX ->  adaY,
   acdX ->  cdY, afdX ->  daY, astX ->  saY, where 'Y's are the sequential
   numbers for each type in order of detection, unless configured otherwise
   with tunables, see cam(4)).

   ataraid(4) functionality is now supported by the RAID GEOM class.
   To use it you can load geom_raid kernel module and use graid(8) tool
   for management. Instead of /dev/arX device names, use /dev/raid/rX.

How many raid implementations, in particular, stripe and mirror ?

Same as before: one out, another in.

Is gstripe/gmirror merged, or planned to be merged with geom_raid ?
Does it make sense to merge if not yet ?

It is definitely possible, but it is not done yet to not put all eggs in one basket.
