# This file is used by ttyname(3C) to minimize search time

# during attempts to determine the name of a terminal device.

#

# This is done by providing the names of directories which

# are most likely to contain device entries for terminal

# devices. These directories will be searched in the order

# listed prior to an exhaustive search of the rest of /dev.

#

# Each line contains the name of a directory (which must

# begin with "/dev") and (optionally) a set of flags which

# modify the criteria used to determine a match. By default,

# an exact match requires that the major/minor device number

# (the M flag), the file system identifier (the F flag), and

# the inode number (the I flag) all match. Normally, a partial

# match on the major/minor device and the file system identifier

# is accepted only after exhausting all entries under /dev.

# By specifying only the M and F flags, an exact match will

# be accepted regardless of the value of the inode number as

# soon as it is found. This is especially useful for cloned

# devices, which generally will not match inode numbers.

#

# For additional information see ttysrch(4).

#

# EXAMPLE:

#

# /dev/slan MF

#

# This would improve performance for Starlan network connections

# if all Starlan network clone device entries were contained

# in the /dev/slan directory.
