Re: [zones-discuss] bug? zone wont create device files during boot

Dan, I apologize. I'm still learning. I replayed the whole damn thing and of course it works well and all devices appear in the zone as configured. I was just confused because looking at /zones/zone-a/dev still doesn't show any of my device files. You also wanted me to check ZONEPATH/dev which is still quite empty although the files apear in /dev within the zone. As my little dtrace script shows the earlier implementation of devfsadm -z <zone> in READY state and the devfsadm -Z during the stop of the zone have disappeared. It has been replaced by a strange mount -o attrdir=ZONEPATH/dev ... I didnt find anything in the man pages, so I guess I have to look into the source ...

    Someone earlier stated that this was also broken in SXDE-- as far as
    I know that is *not* the case.  One of the reasons this has been a
    troublesome area is that in Nevada the /dev zones implementation is
    radically different from S10, due to the existence of the "devnames"
    project in Nevada.  Hence the S10 and Nevada code is pretty in this
    area.

Before I posted this to [zone-discuss] I tried again on SXDE 09/07, and the
same problem occured.
Adding a device match will not create any device files in ZONEPATH/dev.


Konstantin, we'll go back and retest SXDE 9/07, although at present we
don't have a bug for this problem open against SXDE.  As I said, the
code is basically completely different in that area between SXDE and
S10, so it would have to be a new and different bug.

My desktop is a SPARC box running build 72 (which AFAIK is SXDE 9/07)
and I don't see this there; this is an example of adding, then
removing a pseudo device in a basic test:
  
  # uname -a 
  SunOS snowdog 5.11 snv_72 sun4u sparc SUNW,A70
  # ls -l /aux/foo/root/dev/lockstat
  /aux/foo/root/dev/lockstat: No such file or directory
  # zonecfg -z foo 'add device; set match=/dev/lockstat; end'
  # zoneadm -z foo reboot
  # ls -l /aux/foo/root/dev/lockstat
  crw-r--r--   1 root     sys       89,  0 Oct  3 02:55 /aux/foo/root/dev/lockstat
  # zonecfg -z foo 'remove device match=/dev/lockstat'
  # zoneadm -z foo reboot
  # ls -l /aux/foo/root/dev/lockstat
  /aux/foo/root/dev/lockstat: No such file or directory

(Please note that I'm not advising that anyone add /dev/lockstat to
their zone; I simply used it as a test case).

Perhaps you could post your SXDE test case?
