Like, > notifications about events like "default route is up" can be done by > sniffing the rtsock, but notifications like "ntpdate has updated the > date, we can now do crypto services" doesn't happen there right now. devd was never intended to be limited to just device events from the kernel. It has grown beyond that, and could easily grow to cope with routing events and other notifications. No need to reinvent everything for that. What devd doesn't do is launchd / job control. That would be a whole new kettle of fish for it, and one for which it may be ill suited. Though viewed in the right way, it's all just a series of notifications: This service is up, this is down, user wants to start this other one, etc, so maybe it wouldn't so bad...
