The following reply was made to PR bin/13768; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Mikhail Teterin <mi@aldan.algebra.com> To: Ruslan Ermilov <ru@ucb.crimea.ua> Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: bin/13768: sh MAKEDEV cdN creates all cd(N-1)-devices for all N>0 Date: Thu, 16 Sep 1999 19:47:11 -0400 (EDT) Ruslan Ermilov once stated: => sh MAKEDEV cd5 => =By the command above you tell that you have five CD drives on your =system. I thought, that by that command I request all the devices pertaining to the single physical device be created -- the 6th CD-ROM connnected to the machine. => ls -l cd* => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 0 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd0a => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 2 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd0c => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 8 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd1a => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 10 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd1c => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 16 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd2a => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 18 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd2c => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 24 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd3a => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 26 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd3c => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 32 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd4a => brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 34 15 ΣΕΞ 22:43 cd4c =.. and MAKEDEV build devices for all five CDs. =And it is consistent with `MAKEDEV vtyN', for example. It is inconsistent with daN*, then. =So, what (by your opinion) should be fixed? In my opinion, there has to be cdNa and cdNc, rcdNa and rcdNc after ``MAKEDEV cdN''.
