find /usr/src -name \*.c | xargs grep DEV_DRIVER_MODULE
and check the changes on that file.
For your reference, the changes that have recently been made to ugen.c
with respect to the cdevsw thingies:
RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/sys/dev/usb/ugen.c,v

Some interesting comments from an interesting source.

Nine'th update to the new ATA/ATAPI driver:
The atapi subsystem has gotten better error handeling and timeouts,
it also tries a REQUEST SENSE command when devices returns errors,
to give a little more info as to what went wrong. It might be a
little verbose for now, but I'm interested in as muc

I just noticed that traceroute in -current is starting its probes
with port 1 instead of 33435 as it is supposed to do:

Why have splr semantics? That is, it raises to splsoftclock if current
priority is lower, else doesn't fiddle with it.

Trying the updated driver, I notice that the first time I try
to mount the cdrom drive, it hangs, I hit ^C and get this
error:
atapi_error: PREVENT_ALLOW - timeout error = 00
After that, I can mount it fine. This system is all SCSI except
for the cdrom, which is a generic 6x IDE cdrom drive.

What is the device node that is used to access the cdrom in ATA?
/dev/acd0c doesnt seem to work, although that is the one specified in

This is what I meant to suggest, but if this is not doable,

I'm working on restoring ctm finally (now the disk is working, and the
extra room is terrific!)
I am going to do things manually for a short while, so the interval of
things is going to be unpredictable, but I'd consider it a favor if,
when you get a ctm, you email me directly. Keep the ctm stuf

splsoftclock() has always had spllower() semantics, and its main users
(kern_clock.c and kern_time.c) depend on this.
FreeBSD has a precedent of not changing poor spl names
