Patch attached anyway. In a general sense, it's probably abut time to add a class parameter or two (one a bitmap, the other a bitmap within that bitmap) to all of the kernel display data. That would let you block all messages of a class, without the need to introduce per-printf sysctl's. This sort of goes with PHK's idea that the console code needs a rethink. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
