in /etc/ttys. Before this fix, once the count of active services
reaches 0, one could never restart any more without a reboot.
Steve Passe did the leg work on this patch. After he found the fix,
we discovered that an identical fix had been made to NetBSD.

Convert init(8) to use nmount() instead of mount() when
it has to mount devfs. This doesn't happen normally,
since the kernel is supposed to mount devfs itself.
It does not help modern compilers, and some may take some hit from it.
(I also found several functions that listed *every* of its 10 local vars with
"register" -- just how many free registers do people think machines have?)
rundown script 'reboot' or 'single'. ISO support (which never
worked) has been removed from mount_nfs. mount_nfs and umount
now use mounttab, which allows umntall to work properly. The
rc scripts now call umntall as appropriate.

init(8) cannot decrease securelevel. The manual page explains this
and single_user() doesn't try to downgrade kernel to insecure mode.

to the session list. If the device comes back as unconfigured, just
ignore that line in /etc/ttys. If someone HUP's init, we'll try again.
This change stops getty's from hanging on vty and sio ports that don't
exist, either due to LKM drivers not being loaded, or probes failing.

/etc/rc started with "daemon" settings.
"window=" started with "default" settings
gettys started with "default" settings.
This should open the way to junk kernel options MAX_{OPEN,CHILD}
and the corresponding sysctl vars.

I got a lot of
"getty repeating too quickly on port %s, sleeping"
from init.bsdi, it means that getty start and exit in five seconds.
This is common situation for poor quality Russian phone lines:
modem got CONNECT message and after retries got NO CARRIER.
So I introduce spacing count, it means that this warning and
sleep occurse only after GETTY_NSPACE times of sequental attempts.

I found (and fix) ugly bugs in init.bsdi (this bugs not present
in old init)
1) Init don't setup TERM environment variable for default terminal
type from /etc/ttys before calling getty/window.
2) When "kill -1 1" issued, init don't restart getty when
/etc/ttys parameters was changed (it only kill "off" end empty entries).
3) Small memory leak if "window" /etc/ttys parameter specified and
"kill -1 1" issued.
