I'm a little bit confused about some of the file system terminology.

What exactly is a GEOM label?  What does it mean to have one or for
one to be stopped?
What is a GEOM provider?
What is the difference between a bsd label and a geom label?

If you could provide a high level overview the terminology it would
help me immensely.
