For at least some of the prior work in removing use of libkvm, that removal has just been for default operation -- use sysctl if appropriate, and use libkvm if specifically requested and privilege is available, making it work on cores. That will probably be a good strategy as we move forwards. BTW, we've actually now expanded our contract with DES for PAM work to include wandering through the remaining libkvm/setgid-kmem binaries to do this cleanup work, and expose any remaining required data through sysctl, so unless someone feels like duplicating the work, the task is probably claimed. :-) Robert N M Watson FreeBSD Core Team, TrustedBSD Project robert@fledge.watson.org NAI Labs, Safeport Network Services To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
