nia | Remove uscanner(4) driver
This exists for compatibility with a Linux interface which was apparently deprecated in Linux 2.6. There are various mailing list threads going back to 2004 where the usefulness of this driver is discussed, but the conclusion is that scanner software has all moved to using ugen(4) instead, and enabling this driver will not help you scan things.

maya | remove urio(4), a driver for the Rio500 MP3 player.
At this point it is highly unlikely this 1999 device still has users, but it still comes up in the context of maxv's USB-fuzzing (and any device could pretend to be a urio(4)), so it's best to get rid of it.
Renamed all major entries to obsolete, as was done in previous removals.
This still requires an update to sanitizers, but they're located in "external", perhaps it should be first committed upstream?
Proposed on tech-kern a month ago.

dholland | branches: 1.14.6; Systematize handling of removed drivers.
- Every driver that was removed and whose number hasn't already been reused is now listed with a commented-out "obsolete" line. - The format of these has been systematized. Future format changes can probably be safely done with a script. - This does not include a few cases of assignments that only lasted a couple days, or stuff from before major reorgs. Some of these may be included nonetheless, because there was a lot of ground to cover and therefore not a lot of time to dig into history in detail.
Note that the obsolete listings do not mean the major numbers can never be reused; that's up to portmasters and/or core. It does mean that they won't be reused by accident, however, which in some cases (depending on the driver, how widely used it was, its family of device nodes, their default permissions, etc.) can be quite dangerous.
Note that some of the things now explicitly listed as obsolete are really ancient history. My scan went back as far as when the majors files were added. (But not before that.)

dholland | Restore satlink's majors entries commented out and marked obsolete. Otherwise they might accidentally get reused later and cause a security problem.
|
1.12 |
| 27-Jan-2019 |
maxv | Remove the satlink driver. It was disabled everywhere, had no man page and no use either. Spotted by thorpej in PR/21345, ok christos.
|
1.11 |
| 23-Sep-2018 |
maxv | Remove ISDN from the kernel. It has remained unmaintained for a long time, is of poor quality, and is now an obstacle to MP-ification. It was removed ten years ago from FreeBSD for the same reason.
This retires a big user of the mbuf API, and will ease maintenance of the kernel.

1.10 |
| 08-Dec-2016 |
nat | branches: 1.10.14; 1.10.16; Add a synthesized pc beeper and keyboard bell for platforms with an audio device.
|
1.9 |
| 23-Apr-2015 |
pgoyette | branches: 1.9.2; Update device dependency information - the sysmon major device now depends on the sysmon module itself, not on the individual components.
|
1.8 |
| 30-Jun-2011 |
wiz | branches: 1.8.12; 1.8.30; dependant -> dependent
|
1.7 |

phx | Revert the major number for satmgr(4) back to 100 and allocate it from majors.powerpc, as suggested by matt@.
|
1.6 |
| 29-May-2010 |
phx | branches: 1.6.2; 1.6.4; sysmon_power is needed to be able to use powerd(8).
|
1.5 |
| 06-Mar-2010 |
plunky | branches: 1.5.2; use a MI major number for uhso(4) driver (requested by mrg)
|
1.4 |
| 06-Mar-2010 |
plunky | add major device for usho(4) driver
|
1.3 |

ad | branches: 1.3.6; Remove LKMs and switch to the module framework, pass 1.
Proposed on tech-kern@.

ad | branches: 1.2.2; 1.2.4; 1.2.10; 1.2.14; 1.2.20; 1.2.22; Remove systrace. Ok core@.

1.1 |
| 10-Dec-2007 |
garbled | branches: 1.1.2; 1.1.6; 1.1.8; 1.1.10; Add a new majors.powerpc. This was cobbled together from the majors files of all the different powerpc ports (except amigappc). It should be compatible with sandpoint and macppc. It is compatible with evbppc minus one device (gtmpsc).
To convert a port to use this file rather than a local one, delete your majors file, and edit your files.port to point to this instead. (I will follow up with a MAKEDEV fix to support this)
