--- Comment #1 from [email protected] --- /dev/tap device "instability" may have been due to sysctl setting: root@tokyo:/etc # ls -l /dev/tap ls: /dev/tap: No such file or directory root@tokyo:/etc # sysctl -a | grep net.link.tap.dev net.link.tap.devfs_cloning: 0 root@tokyo:/etc # sysctl -w net.link.tap.devfs_cloning=1 root@tokyo:/etc # sysctl -a | grep net.link.tap.dev net.link.tap.devfs_cloning: 1 root@tokyo:/etc # ls -l /dev/tap crw------- 1 root wheel 0xa9 Feb 28 15:30 /dev/tap It is this sysctl that's making the /dev/tap* devices spawn too frequently, though. (When set to zero, the "service devfs restart" command doesn't cause them to continue accumulating.) Also still unable to see /dev/tap with a glob, but as long as the program (qemu-devel) can load it by explicit name, it's not the end of the world for me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
