            Bug ID: 253854
           Summary: The dumpon service doesn't (start and) set up dump
                    devices anymore
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: conf
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: vidwer+fbsdbugs at gmail.com

Userland is built from git hash 8f3c71c85e.

The setting 'dumpdev="AUTO"' exists in /etc/rc.conf yet after booting 'sysctl
kern.shutdown.dumpdevname' is empty.

Manually running 'service dumpon start' does populate this sysctl.

After manually starting dumpon, I can force a crash to DDB, using the
documented hotkey combination.
