Subject:   More xorg mischief on Rpi3B, failed to open /dev/io
Message-ID:  <20200518160456.GA64331@www.zefox.net>

Enabling amdgpu in llvm80 solved the problem of compiling xorg
on a Pi3b, but now that it's built and installed it still fails
to run. 

Running 
X -configure as root produces
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE arm64 
Current Operating System: FreeBSD nemesis.zefox.com 12.1-STABLE FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE r361020 GENERIC arm64
Build Date: 17 May 2020  04:22:05PM
 
Current version of pixman: 0.40.0

List of video drivers:
	scfb
	modesetting
scfb trace: probe start
No devices to configure.  Configuration failed.
(EE) Server terminated with error (2). Closing log file.

The log file looks happy until 

[302404.406] (WW) xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O
[302404.406] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for scfb
[302404.406] scfb trace: probe start
[302404.406] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for modesetting
[302404.406] No devices to configure.  Configuration failed.
[302404.407] (EE) Server terminated with error (2). Closing log file.

There is indeed no /dev/io, and I can't find any references to it.

There's a thread at
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/no-devices-to-configure-configuration-failed.18348/

reporting a smilar failure, but traces the problem to having
kern_securelevel="1", while mine is -1 (evidently the default).

Thanks for reading, any hints appreciated...
