Not sure if this is a bug or not, but my understanding of device rules that
are placed in /etc/devfs.conf are supposed to be applied when a device is
attached. ie.
perm da0 0666
perm da0s1 0666
perm da1 0666
perm da1s1 0666
perm da2 0666
perm da2s1 0666
perm da3 0666
perm da3s1 0666
These permissions are applied on boot since /etc/rc.d/devfs runs and applies
them, but shouldn't they be reapplied when the device disappears and
reappears? For example:
1) USB 6-in1 reader is attached during boot
2) disk reader is unplugged and device nodes destroyed
3) plug in reader and device nodes come up, but permissions are now 0640 not
0666 like the rule in devfs.conf
Is this expected behavior?
Thanks,
