  Modified files:
    lib/libc/gen         devname.3 devname.c 
    sys/kern             kern_conf.c 
  Log:
  Add code to devname(3) so it can find the names of devices which
  were not present when dev_mkdb(8) was run.
  
  First the dev_mkdb(8) database is searched, this caters for non-DEVFS
  cases where people have renamed a device.
  
  If that fails we ask the kernel using sysctl kern.devname if the device
  driver has put a name in the dev_t.  This covers DEVFS cloned devices.
  
  If that also fails we format a string which isn't entirely useless.
