Please see lindev(4). I guess I wasn't loud enough. We already had the exact same feature via lindev(4). In fact, now it panics if we load both, i.e., "make_dev_credv: bad si_name (error=17, si_name=full)". Please see sys/dev/lindev/full.c. Also, the manual page is still symlinked from lindev.4. % grep -n 'full\.4' share/man/man4/Makefile 822:MLINKS+=lindev.4 full.4 If we're really making it a standard feature, then lindev must be removed (or at least disconnected from build), __FreeBSD_version must be bumped, and a new UPDATING entry for the change is required.
