Author: jhb Date: Tue May 10 22:32:23 2016 New Revision: 299393 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/299393 Log: Change the default installation directory for modules to /boot/modules. Kernel installs always override KMODDIR when installing modules, so this default setting is only used for standalone module builds. Many out-of-tree modules manually override KMODDIR already to avoid placing modules in /boot/kernel. This now makes that behavior the default.
