RevisionDateAuthorComments
 1.6  03-Jul-2017  wiz Remove workaround for ancient HTML generation code.
 1.5  24-Mar-2009  drochner minor fix in description of an error condition
 1.4  20-Jan-2009  drochner branches: 1.4.2;
cleanup after devmajor_t:
-since getdevmajor(3) is now binary compatible again with <=5.0
there is no need to rename, I've just left a __getdevmajor50 symbol
temporarily for those who track -current
-update manpage
 1.3  16-Dec-2004  wiz Use more markup. Sort sections.
 1.2  16-Dec-2004  christos document properly the return value and the errno settings.
 1.1  16-Dec-2004  atatat Add a function called getdevmajor().

It tells you the major device number for whatever character or block
device you ask it. This is sort of the inverse of devname(3) but not
quite, since it's backed by the kernel (sysctl's kern.drivers
information) and not a database cobbled together from the contents of
the filesystem.
 1.4.2.1  13-May-2009  jym Sync with HEAD.

Third (and last) commit. See http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2009/05/13/msg221222.html
