            Bug ID: 196845
           Summary: devinfo does not present vital info (compared to
                    sysctl)
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: uffe at uffe.org

devinfo does not present vital info (compared to sysctl)

Please observe this output from cmd: "sysctl dev.umodem" 
The device in question appears as an USB-serial port to the system.
Please note the fields "ttyname" and "ttyports" in the "%pnpinfo" record

dev.umodem.%parent: 
dev.umodem.0.%desc: Microchip Technology Inc. CDC RS-232 Emulation Demo, class
2/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1
dev.umodem.0.%driver: umodem
dev.umodem.0.%location: bus=4 hubaddr=1 port=3 devaddr=2 interface=0
dev.umodem.0.%pnpinfo: vendor=0x04d8 product=0xfa95 devclass=0x02
devsubclass=0x00 sernum="Logic Pirate v1" release=0x0100 mode=host
intclass=0x02 intsubclass=0x02 intprotocol=0x01  ttyname=U0 ttyports=1
dev.umodem.0.%parent: uhub1
dev.umodem.0.ttyname: U0
dev.umodem.0.ttyports: 1

This is the output from devinfo for the same device:

umodem0 pnpinfo vendor=0x04d8 product=0xfa95 devclass=0x02 devsubclass=0x00
sernum="Logic Pirate v1" release=0x0100 mode=host intclass=0x02 int at bus=4
hubaddr=1 port=3 devaddr=2 interface=0

Note that the "ttyname" and "ttyports" entries are missing.

This makes it impossible to use devinfo in order to determine the mapping
between USB(-serial) devices and the /dev/cuaUx serial ports that the provide
