We have to pass third parameter of kstat_lookup() as the disk name we

names are not fixed they are depend on the way the HDD are configured
(SCSI: sd0, sd1 | IDE: dad0, dad1, etc). So, rather than passing this
from command line or hard code, there should be another API that will
be called before kstat_lookup() and return real disk names using which
real HDD Serial number can be fetched.
Does this make sense ?
No, it does not make sense. Both Dan and I have asked you
What _larger_ problem are you trying to solve?
Without that knowledge, there is no point in asking us for
help with random titbits of info which you think are relevant
to disclose.
