I have just commited changes to devstat(9) that will require recompilation of the following things: libdevstat [ do this first! ] systat iostat vmstat rpc.rstatd You'll have to recompile those things in order to use them with the new kernel changes. You will probably also have to recompile any ports that depend on libdevstat. (I think there are 2 or 3 sysinfo type ports that depend on it.) A buildworld/installworld will of course do all the upgrades automatically, and that's the recommended course of action. These changes are the same changes I checked into -current on February 9th, with the addition of the ccd fix I made today, and with the exception of the changes to atapi-cd.c, since that driver does not have devstat support in -stable. For those who are interested: the changes implement different sorting priorities for different devices, so that, for instance, da devices now appear before fd devices, instead of after. i.e., "more interesting" devices appear before "less interesting" devices. Thanks for Bruce Evans and David O'Brien for suggestions, reviewing the code, etc. Ken -- Kenneth Merry ken@plutotech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
