You want the linux /proc behaviour.

1) make sure you have linux binary compatibility installed 

$ pkg_info | grep linux_base
linux_base-8-8.0_14 Base set of packages needed in Linux mode (for
i386/amd64)

$ grep -i linux /etc/rc.conf 
linux_enable="YES"

( without a reboot, this equals to kldload linux)

2) add to /etc/fstab:
linprocfs   /compat/linux/proc   linprocfs   rw   0  0

and then you can get :
