NEW_BUFQ_STRATEGY to various hardware and system configurations.
Bump date.
XXX is the comment about this option being "not yet proven stable"
still relevant/true?
The Iyonix is a desktop machine from Castle Technology, based on a 600MHz
XScale[tm] 80321 processor.
* Uses the bootloader from NetBSD/acorn32, which is now 32-bit compatible.
* Currently boots multiuser with a serial console.
* Device support is not yet complete.
With help from abs.
load_rc_config_var cmd var
to load the rc.conf(5) configuration for cmd and set var in the
current shell, using 'load_rc_config var' in a sub-shell to avoid
unwanted side-effects.
* Improve required_vars warning message.
all keymaps except the US english one can be removed from the kernel
with this option, which results in a space gain of about 10kB.
XXX it would be nice if we could strip down more kernel facilities
kernel message buffer/log. Its off by default and can be switched on in the
kernel configuration on build time, be set as a variable in ddb and be set
using sysctl.
This adds the sysctl value
ddb.tee_msgbuf = 0
by default.
The functionality is especially added and aimed for developers who are not
blessed with a serial console and wish to keep all their ddb output in the
log. Specifying /l as a modifier to some selected commands will also put
the output in the log but not all commands provide one nor has the same
meaning for all commands.
This feature could in the future also be implemented as an ddb command but
that could lead to more bloat allthough maybe easier for non developpers to
use when mailing their backtraces from kernel crashes.
