As dev_t is now a struct, we cannot track dev_t for SYSCTL. It has to be udev_t. sys/i386/i386/cons.c should be doing the same as the alpha version, rather than vice versa. To quote Bruce: "alpha/alpha/cons.c should be identical with i386/i386/cons.c and not in a machine-dependent place. All current differences are bugs" :-) Kazu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
