Message-ID: <20011014213916.A50369@iguana.aciri.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.23i Sender: owner-freebsd-arch@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I seem to remember a discussion from some time ago about exporting device information via sysctl. Given that now there has been dynamic sysctl support for a while, the thing would be feasible (e.g. dynamically creating an hw. subtree), and possibly useful to get/set some more info on devices. Has there been any followup on this ? Would people be happy to have them ? cheers luigi ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO, luigi@iet.unipi.it .
