MFC: sync usage and fix nomatch parsing.

Approved by: re@ (kensmith)

Create a unix domain socket and write to it all the events that come

2004-07-01T07:24:18+00:00

in over the socket.

Parse the ! lines that will soon be coming from the kernel. These are

2003-10-24T22:02:29+00:00

a generalized notification mechanism for subsystems wishing to report
events.

# The kernel side seems like it might be causing panics for me, but should
# be forthcoming shortly.

Remove old workaround

Drop the pid file after we call the final daemon call. w/o -n would

2003-07-05T00:43:50+00:00

give the wrong pid.

sysctlbyname takes a size_t as its 5th argument, not a pointer.

However, since NULL was used, and this is C++, this error went
undetected until g++ 3.3 somehow managed to whine about it.

Create a new C++ header file called devd.hh which has all the class

2003-04-26T20:59:04+00:00

definitions in it.  Begin to document the classes that we use, and how
they interrelate (using comments that I can use with doxygen to
automatically generate docs with).

Update to use is_id_char() in the last patch. I should have done this

2003-04-26T20:25:40+00:00

before the last commit.

Make better use of the string type when parsing things. This switches

2003-04-26T19:44:45+00:00

expand one from using a fixed buffer to using a string which
dynamically allocates these things.

Change default to be 'process all events before calling daemon.'

Also, put a small work around into devd to prevent a hang on boot this
would cause because select used to return 2 rather than 0 for no
evetnts due to a bug I fixed a few days ago in subr_bus.c.  I'll
remove this workaround May 7th.  You have until then to upgrade your
kernel if you want to run a new devd with an older kernel.
