name and unit number in camcontrol(8). Previously camcontrol(8) only supported rescanning or resetting devices specified by bus:target:lun. This is because for rescanning at least, you don't have a peripheral name and unit number (e.g. da4) for devices that don't exist yet. That is still the case after this change, but in other cases, when the device does exist in the CAM EDT (Existing Device Table), we do a careful lookup of the bus/target/lun if the user supplies a peripheral name and unit number to find the bus:target:lun and then issue the requested reset or rescan. The lookup is done without actually opening the device in question, since a rescan is often done to make a device go away after it has been pulled. (This is especially true for busses/controllers, like parallel SCSI controllers, that don't automatically detect changes in topology.) Opening a device that is no longer there to determine the bus/target/lun might result in error recovery actions when the user really just wanted to make the device go away. sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.c: In dorescan_or_reset(), if the use hasn't specified a numeric argument, assume he has specified a device. Lookup the pass(4) instance for that device using the transport layer CAMGETPASSTHRU ioctl. If that is successful, we can use the returned bus:target:lun to rescan or reset the device. Under the hood, resetting a device using XPT_RESET_DEV is actually sent via the pass(4) device anyway. But this provides a way for the user to specify devices in a more convenient way, and can work on device rescans when the device is going away, assuming it still exists in the EDT. sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.8: Update the man page for the rescan and reset subcommands to reflect that you can now use a device name and unit number with them.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel and installkernel targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel and installkernel targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.
