The gstat(8) command will display statistics for all GEOM disks,
including floppy and CD-{ROM,R,RW}.
   Sure I can use gstat (it actually displays statistics for acd0 and fd0) but
I consider current behaviour regarding devstat(9) as broken. Note that if I
configure atapicam into the kernel, devstat sees ad0, cd0 and pass0, but 
doesn't see acd0 and fd0. What's the problem with those devices? What
makes especially cd0 better than acd0?!

vmstat regression (RELENG_4 - RELENG_5)

2004-11-17 Thread Dmitry Pryanishnikov
Hello!
  While playing with fresh installation of 5.3-RELEASE (GENERIC kernel) I've
noticed that I can only see my HDD in the left lower corner of the systat's
vmstat screen. I also have working floppy and CD-RW drives, both are detected
and work, but I can't see data transfer stats for them. In 4.10-RELEASE, I see
ad0,acd0,fd0 here, but in 5.3-RELEASE I see only ad0.
  After reading manual page systat(8) I see the root reason of this behaviour:
kernel devstat(9) subsystem only sees my ad0. Under 4.10-RELEASE, sysctl
kern.devstat.numdevs gives 3, but under 5.3-RELEASE only 1. How can I enable
disk statistics gathering for disks other than HDD in 5.3-RELEASE?
Sincerely, Dmitry
