drvconfig(1M) System Administration Commands drvconfig(1M)NAMEdrvconfig - apply permission and ownership changes to devices
SYNOPSISdrvconfig [-bn] [-a alias_name] [-c class_name] [-i drivername]
[-m major_num] [-r root_dir]
DESCRIPTIONdevfsadm(1M) is now the preferred command and should be used instead of
drvconfig.
The default operation of drvconfig is to apply permission and ownership
changes to devices. Normally, this command is run automatically after a
new driver has been installed (with add_drv(1M)) and the system has
been rebooted.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-aalias_name Add the name alias_name to the list of aliases that
this driver is known by. This option, if used, must be
used with the -m major_num, the -b and the -i driver‐
name options.
-b Add a new major number to name binding into the ker‐
nel's internal name_to_major tables. This option is not
normally used directly, but is used by other utilities
such as add_drv(1M). Use of the -b option requires that
-i and -m be used also. No /devices entries are cre‐
ated.
-cclass_name The driver being added to the system exports the class
class_name. This option is not normally used directly,
but is used by other utilities. It is only effective
when used with the -b option.
-idrivername Only configure the devices for the named driver. The
following options are used by the implementation of
add_drv(1M) and rem_drv(1M), and may not be supported
in future versions of Solaris:
-mmajor_num Specify the major number major_num for this driver to
add to the kernel's name_to_major binding tables.
-n Do not try to load and attach any drivers, or if the -i
option is given, do not try to attach the driver named
drivername.
-rroot_dir Perform operations under root_dir, rather than directly
under root.
EXIT STATUS
