I do not belive that the values of that variables are in upper case
To see what is happening in devd, try this
Create the file /usr/local/etc/devd/printvar.conf with
=============================
#
# Run devd in debug mode
# devd -Dd
#
attach 0 {
device-name "umass[0-9]+";
action "/usr/local/etc/devd/printvar.sh '$bus' '$cdev' '$cisproduct' '$cisvendor' '$class' '$device' '$device-name' '$function' '$manufacturer' '$notify' '$product' '$serial' '$slot' '$subvendor' '$subdevice' '$subsystem' '$system' '$type' '$vendor'";
};
=============================
Also, creat the file Create the file /usr/local/etc/devd/printvar.sh
=============================
#!/bin/sh
{
echo "$# parametros"
echo $@
echo "bus = $1"
echo "cdev = $2"
echo "cisproduct = $3"
echo "cisvendor = $4"
echo "class = $5"
echo "device = $6"
echo "device-name = $7"
echo "function = $8"
echo "manufacturer = $9"
shift 9
echo "notify = $1"
echo "product = $2"
echo "serial = $3"
echo "slot = $4"
echo "subvendor = $5"
echo "subdevice = $6"
echo "subsystem = $7"
echo "system = $8"
echo "type = $9"
shift 1
echo "vendor = $9"
} > /tmp/VariablesDevd.txt
=============================
