There are lots more of these still.

position as the replacement for our existing static /dev/fd nodes.

MAKEDEV all, making DHCP on multiple interfaces happier, and allowing use
of tcpdump to to debug DHCP, without creating more devices.

Modify MAKEDEV to create four tun devices in MAKEDEV all as well, since
we're being gratuitous with network pseudo-devices.

strictly a security hole, but neither is it a very good idea. Replace
it with a symlink to /dev/null to happify programs that expect it.
It is suggested that users of the jail environment modify the jail's
syslog.conf to not send stuff to /dev/console, but instead syslog
it somewhere else. Such as a loghost, potentially even to the host
environment's syslog.

devices because accessible by group wheel instead of group operator.
Didn't fix fishy group for rsa*.ctl. This device should have group operator
if that is safe, or mode 600 and group wheel.
Removed ssc and uk*.
Removed bogus (redundant) chmod's to 600.

Also, remove all but the ums0 device from the fixit target 'to save
precious i-nodes on the fixit floppy'.
We were supposed to get these in far earlier and didn't, hence
the commit after feature freeze. A promise is a promise. :)

Improve the internal mknod() to understand being passed an (optional)
user:group specification.
Don't apply root:wheel to nodes explicitly anywhere, it's the default.
Remove an odd looking uucp:wheel assignment, as it's inconsistent with
all the other tty?? devices.

Fixed some style bugs for cam (superflous umask and missing newline).
Fixed bogons for apm. The pattern "apm*" matched too many things; apm
and apmctl were both made twice by `MAKEDEV all'. Hopefully no one
depends on `MAKEDEV apm0' making apm or on `MAKEDEV apm' making apmctl.
MAKEDEV can now run (with /sbin/chown and /bin/chgrp, still) without
any /usr. The default PATH for MAKEDEV is now "/sbin:/bin" to prevent
against further spammage of /usr programs in MAKEDEV. In the event
of an emergency, the variable "MAKEDEVPATH" can be used to replace
PATH, but I don't know what that emergency could be.
Let me know if you have any problems. I've tested it as well as
I could, which basically means everything except for RocketPorts.

longer really suitable as a default to create the various /dev nodes
to be contained on the fixit floppy, since all our proud new devide
nodes finally made the fixit floppy run over...
So instead create a new target titled `fixit' which creates just the
dev nodes for a single unit per each default driver; whoever needs
more of them is free to create whatever he needs, perhaps after
killing unused nodes before. There were more than 700 /dev nodes on
the floppy before that action, and it's still around 350 now. I doubt
all the various /dev/ugen* entries are really useful on such a tool,
so people, please check, and if you feel like more could be eliminated
from that floppy, kill'em.
While i was at it, removed traces of ft(8) that still survived even
though the driver has long since been dead.
That's step #1. #2 will follow...

Notice: Over time, no earlier than FreeBSD 5.0, the "r*" names may

This will take no effect until you either run MAKEDEV by hand or

This means that if(when) you go "sh MAKEDEV all" in /dev
the devices get remade; you don't get errors.
A lot of the changes are for info only; they are commented out.

decision to limit the sound driver to one device. With Luigi's pcm
driver, the unit number for the PnP detected cards is nearly always 1,
and so you can't create the symlinks that will make your sound work.

2) Use $disk_umask when creating ccd device specials. (Suggested by

3) No longer create rccd{n}.ctl; ccd's are not necessarily scsi.

This is Junichi's v1.0 driver.
NOTE: Major device numbers have been changed to avoid conflict with other
FreeBSD 3.0 devices. The new numbers should be considered "official."
This driver is still considered "beta" quality, although we have been
playing with it. Please submit bugs to junichi and myself.
