--- Comment #8 from Tomasz "CeDeROM" CEDRO <tomek@cedro.info> ---
(In reply to vermaden from comment #6)

on 12.1.

I would humbly point that the root cause is Kernel API changes between rele=
ases
of the same major number.. maybe even different major number.

If we had an architecture designed first in a way that would provide stable
Kernel API there would be no problem at all.

Kernel API changes between each release is so Linux.

It smells like a maintenance nightmare we are observing right now because we
try to fix the problem that creates a complication with a new complications.

Is it really necessary here in FreeBSD? I don't think so.

Is there really no way to avoid it?
