Mark Felder ad2a0d756a 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.

! 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 !
! you should re-enable Patrol Reads. !
! !
! Check if patrol is disabled: !
! !
! # /usr/sbin/mfiutil -u 0 show patrol !
! Operation Mode: disabled !
! Runs Completed: 0 !

! Turn patrol back on: !

! Confirm patrol status: !
! !
! # /usr/sbin/mfiutil -u 0 show patrol !
