New Revision: 200163
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/200163
Log:
MFC r197518:
lindev(4) [1] is supposed to be a collection of linux-specific pseudo
devices that we also support, just not by default (thus only LINT or
module builds by default).
While currently there is only "/dev/full" [2], we are planning to see more
in the future. We may decide to change the module/dependency logic in the
future should the list grow too long.
This is not part of linux.ko as also non-linux binaries like kFreeBSD
userland or ports can make use of this as well.

+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm lindev
+.Nd the lindev module
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this collection of linux-specific pseudo devices into the kernel,
+place the following line in your kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device lindev"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time,
+place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+lindev_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+module provides a collection of linux-specific pseudo devices.
+.Sh DEVICES

+The
+.Xr full
+device always returns
+.Er ENOSPC
+on write attempts.
+For reads it emulates
+.Xr zero 4 .
+.El
+.Sh FILES
+.Bl -tag -width /dev/full
+.It Pa /dev/full
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr null 4 ,
+.Xr zero 4
+.Sh HISTORY
