See .Xr intro 4 for a more complete discussion of special files. .Pp .Nm MAKEDEV takes any number of device names as arguments, where the names are the common abbreviation for the device. There are four special device names, .Ar all , .Ar std , .Ar local and .Ar wscons . If given, .Ar all creates device files for all devices on the sparc. If units are expected for a device, .Nm MAKEDEV will supply the standard numbers. The .Ar std argument creates only the standard devices for the sparc. Finally .Ar local is for devices specific to the local site, and executes the shell file .Pa MAKEDEV.local . .Pp The sparc supports the following devices. Where a device name is followed by a hash sign ("#"), the hash sign must be replaced by a unit number. .Pp .Sy Pseudo\-names .Bl -tag -width openprom indent -compact .It Ar all All known devices for the sparc. .It Ar std The standard devices (console, drum, fd/*, klog, kmem, mem, null, stderr, stdin, stdout, tty, zero). .It Ar local Configuration specific devices. .It Ar wscons All wscons-related devices. .El .Pp .Sy Device\-names .Bl -tag -width openprom indent -compact .It Ar audio Audio device. .It Ar bpf# Berkeley packet filters. .It Ar bpp# Bi-directional printer ports. .It Ar ccd# .Dq Concatenated disk drives. .It Ar cd# SCSI CD-ROM drives. .It Ar ch# SCSI media changer drives. .It Ar cua# Serial ports. .It Ar fd# .Dq Floppy disk drives. .It Ar lkm Loadable kernel modules. .It Ar magma# Magma serial/parallel interfaces. .It Ar openprom OPENPROM and EEPROM interface. .It Ar pty# Set of 16 master and slave pseudo terminals. .It Ar raid# RAIDframe disk drives. .It Ar random In-kernel random number generator. .It Ar rd# .Dq Ramdisk pseudo-disks. .It Ar sd# SCSI disk drives. .It Ar ses# SCSI SES/SAF-TE devices. .It Ar spif# SPARC serial/parallel interfaces. .It Ar st# SCSI tape drives. .It Ar tty# Serial ports. .It Ar ttyC# Wscons console screens. .It Ar tun# Network tunnel devices. .It Ar uk# .Dq Unknown SCSI devices. .It Ar vnd# .Dq File pseudo-disks. .It Ar wskbd Keyboard devices for wscons. .It Ar wsmouse Mouse devices for wscons. .It Ar xd# Xylogic 450/451 disks. .It Ar xfs# XFS filesystem devices. .It Ar xy# Xylogic 753/7053 disks. .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width /dev -compact .It Pa /dev The special file directory. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr intro 4 , .Xr config 8 , .Xr mknod 8
