I think Warner L. was referring to ( I looked at UPDATING
from head -r335812 but this entry is older ):
20180530:
The kernel / userland interface for devinfo changed, so you'll
need a new kernel and userland as a pair for it to work (rebuilding
lib/libdevinfo is all that's required). devinfo and devmatch will
not work, but everything else will when there's a mismatch.
If I understand right, having devinfo and devmatch not working is
not necessarily a status of being fundamentally broken overall.
(Just less automatic?) But I've never had to deal with the messages.
