A few separated questions for LKM and bpf. Situations: bpf has been updated to add tcp_wrapper into the kernel in LBL. (1) who is currently import the bpf into the FreeBSD and doing maintenance? Would this person will updated this new bpf feature in FreeBSD? If yes, what is the approximate time frame? (2) regardless Q (1), we are trying to make a loadable kernel module for bpf. There are some technical issues -- <1> At which booting phase, the LKM can be started. That is, can LKM start in the middle of the booting process? or will LKM be started at the end of the booting process? <2> If the answer it that LKM has to be stared at the end of the booting process, then, can LKM replace an existing kernel function? Thanks in advance for providing any information on helping this, /-------------- Jin Guojun ------------ v -- Internet: j_guojun@lbl.gov ---\ | Imaging & Distributed Computing | Usenet: ucbvax!j_guojun@lbl.gov | | Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory | Bitnet: -- | | 50B-2239, Berkeley, CA 94720 - jin%george.lbl.gov@Csa3.LBL.Gov | \--Ph#:(510) 486-7531 + Fax: 486-6363 --^--http://www-itg.lbl.gov/ITG.html-/
