            Bug ID: 244842
           Summary: ugen(4) device node naming does not match
                    documentation
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.1-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: gson at gson.org

In FreeBSD 12.1, the ugen(4) man page says:

FILES
     /dev/ugenN.E                           Endpoint E of device N.

but the actual device nodes naming scheme in 12.1 is entirely
different.  I'm guessing it's something more like this:

     /dev/ugenB.D                           Endpoint 0 of device D of bus B
     /dev/usb/B.D.E                         Endpoint E of device D of bus B

I would prefer to have the code match the man page for backwards
compatibility with earlier FreeBSD versions and consistency with the
other BSDs.  Failing that, please at least make the man page match the
code.
