.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
This manual page describes a number of miscellaneous kernel
|
|
configuration options that may be specified in a kernel config
|
|
file.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr config 8
|
|
for information on how to configure and build kernels.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar no
|
|
form removes a previously specified option.
|
|
.Ss Keywords
|
|
The following keywords are recognized in a kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bl -ohang
|
|
.It Sy cinclude Xo
|
|
.Qq Ar filename
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Conditionally includes another kernel configuration file whose name is
|
|
.Ar filename ,
|
|
which may be double-quoted and may be an explicit path or relative to
|
|
the kernel source directory.
|
|
Failure to open the named file is ignored.
|
|
.It Sy config Xo
|
|
.Ar exec_name
|
|
.No root on
|
|
.Ar rootdev
|
|
.Op type Ar fstype

|
.Op dumps on Ar dumpdev
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Defines a configuration whose kernel executable is named
|
|
.Ar exec_name ,
|
|
normally
|
|
.Dq netbsd ,
|
|
with its root file system of type
|
|
.Ar fstype
|
|
on the device
|
|
.Ar rootdev ,
|
|
and optionally specifying the location of kernel core dumps on the device
|
|
.Ar dumpdev .
|
|
.Ar dev
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar dumpdev
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar fstype
|
|
may be specified as
|
|
.Dq \&? ,
|
|
which is a wild card.
|
|
The root
|
|
.Ar fstype
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar dumpdev
|
|
are optional and assumed to be wild carded if they are not specified.
|
|
.It Ar device_instance Xo
|
|
at
|
|
.Ar attachment
|
|
.Op Ar locators value Op ...
|
|
.Op flags Ar value
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Define an instance of the device driver
|
|
.Ar device_instance
|
|
that attaches to the bus or device named
|
|
.Ar attachment .
|
|
An
|
|
.Ar attachment
|
|
may require additional information on where the device can be found, such
|
|
as an address, channel, function, offset, and/or slot, referred to as
|
|
.Ar locators ,
|
|
whose
|
|
.Ar value
|
|
often may be a wild card,
|
|
.Dq \&? .
|
|
Some device drivers have one or more
|
|
.Ar flags
|
|
that can be adjusted to affect the way they operate.
|
|
.It Sy file-system Xo
|
|
.Ar fs_name Op , Ar fs_name Op ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Include support for the file-system
|
|
.Ar fs_name .

|
.It Sy ident Xo
|
|
.Qq Ar string
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Sets the kernel identification string to
|
|
.Ar string .
|
|
.It Sy include Xo
|
|
.Qq Ar filename
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Functions the same as
|
|
.Ar cinclude ,
|
|
except failure to open
|
|
.Ar filename
|
|
produces a fatal error.
|
|
.It Sy options Xo
|
|
.Ar option_name Op , Ar option_name=value Op ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Specifies (or sets) the option, or comma-separated list of options,
|
|
.Ar option_name .
|
|
Some options expect to be assigned a value, which may be an integer,
|
|
a double-quoted word, a bare word, or an empty string
|
|
.Pq Qq .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Em Note :
|
|
Options that are not defined by device definition files are passed to
|
|
the compile process as
|
|
.Fl D
|
|
flags to the C compiler.
|
|
.It Sy makeoptions Xo
|
|
.Ar name=value
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Defines a
|
|
.Xr make 1
|
|
macro
|
|
.Ar name
|
|
with the value

|
|
.It Sy no Xo
|
|
.Ar keyword Ar name Op Ar arguments Op ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
For the
|
|
.Xr config 8
|
|
.Ar keywords
|
|
file-system, makeoptions, options, and pseudo-device,
|
|
.Ar no
|
|
removes the file-system, makeoption, options, or pseudo-device,
|
|
.Ar name .
|
|
This is useful when a kernel configuration file includes another which
|
|
has undesired options.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example, a local configuration file that wanted the kitchen sink, but
|
|
not COMPAT_09 or bridging, might be:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
include "arch/i386/conf/GENERIC"
|
|
no options COMPAT_09
|
|
no pseudo-device bridge
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Sy pseudo-device Xo
|
|
.Ar name
|
|
.Op Ar N
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Includes support for the pseudo-device
|
|
.Ar name .
|
|
Some pseudo-devices can have multiple or
|
|
.Ar N
|
|
instances.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss Compatibility Options
|
|
.Bl -ohang
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_09
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 0.9 .
|
|
This enables support for
|
|
16-bit user, group, and process IDs (following revisions support
|
|
32-bit identifiers),
|
|
It also allows the use of the deprecated
|
|
.Xr getdomainname 3 ,
|
|
.Xr setdomainname 3 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr uname 3
|
|
syscalls.
|
|
This option also allows using numeric file system identifiers rather
|
|
than strings.
|
|
Post
|
|
.Nx 0.9
|
|
versions use string identifiers.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_10
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 1.0 .
|
|
This option allows the use of the file system name of
|
|
.Dq ufs
|
|
as an alias for
|
|
.Dq ffs .
|
|
The name
|
|
.Dq ffs
|
|
should be used post 1.0 in
|
|
.Pa /etc/fstab
|
|
and other files.
|
|
It also adds old syscalls for the
|
|
.At V
|
|
shared memory interface.
|
|
This was changed post 1.0 to work on 64-bit architectures.
|
|
This option also enables
|
|
.Dq sgtty
|
|
compatibility, without which programs using the old interface produce
|
|
an
|
|
.Dq inappropriate ioctl
|
|
error, and
|
|
.Pa /dev/io
|
|
only works when this option is set in the kernel,
|
|
see
|
|
.Xr io 4
|
|
on ports that support it.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_11
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 1.1 .
|
|
This allows binaries running on the i386 port to gain direct access to
|
|
the io ports by opening
|
|
.Pa /dev/io
|
|
read/write.
|
|
This functionality was replaced by
|
|
.Xr i386_iopl 2
|
|
post 1.1.
|
|
On the
|
|
.Tn Atari
|
|
port, the location of the disk label was moved after 1.1.
|
|
When the
|
|
.Em COMPAT_11
|
|
option is set, the kernel will read (pre) 1.1 style disk labels as a
|
|
last resort.
|
|
When a disklabel is re-written, the old style label will be replaced
|
|
with a post 1.1 style label.
|
|
This also enables the
|
|
.Em EXEC_ELF_NOTELESS
|
|
option.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_12
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 1.2 .
|
|
This allows the use of old syscalls for
|
|
.Fn reboot
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn swapon .
|
|
The syscall numbers were changed post 1.2 to add functionality to the
|
|
.Xr reboot 2
|
|
syscall, and the new
|
|
.Xr swapctl 2
|
|
interface was introduced.
|
|
This also enables the
|
|
.Em EXEC_ELF_NOTELESS
|
|
option.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_13
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 1.3 .
|
|
This allows the use of old syscalls for
|
|
.Fn sigaltstack ,
|
|
and also enables the old
|
|
.Xr swapctl 2
|
|
command
|
|
.Dv SWAP_STATS
|
|
(now called
|
|
.Dv SWAP_OSTATS ) ,
|
|
which does not include the
|
|
.Fa se_path
|
|
member of
|
|
.Va struct swapent .
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_14
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 1.4 .
|
|
This allows some old
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
on
|
|
.Xr wscons 4
|
|
to be performed, and allows the
|
|
.Dv NFSSVC_BIOD
|
|
mode of the
|
|
.Xr nfssvc 2
|
|
system call to be used for compatibility with the deprecated nfsiod program.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_16
|
|
Enable binary compatibility with
|
|
.Nx 1.6 .
|
|
This allows the use of old signal trampoline code which has been deprecated
|
|
with the addition of
|
|
.Xr siginfo 5 .
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_43
|
|
Enables compatibility with
|
|
.Bx 4.3 .
|
|
This adds an old syscall for
|
|
.Xr lseek 2 .
|
|
It also adds the ioctls for
|
|
.Dv TIOCGETP
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv TIOCSETP .
|
|
The return values for
|
|
.Xr getpid 2 ,
|
|
.Xr getgid 2 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr getuid 2
|
|
syscalls are modified as well, to return the parent's PID and
|
|
UID as well as the current process's.
|
|
It also enables the deprecated
|
|
.Dv NTTYDISC
|
|
terminal line discipline.
|
|
It also provides backwards compatibility with
|
|
.Dq old
|
|
SIOC[GS]IF{ADDR,DSTADDR,BRDADDR,NETMASK} interface ioctls, including
|
|
binary compatibility with code written before the introduction of the
|
|
sa_len field in sockaddrs.
|
|
It also enables
|
|
support for some older pre
|
|
.Bx 4.4
|
|
socket calls.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_BSDPTY
|
|
This option is currenty on by default and enables the pty multiplexor
|
|
.Xr ptm 4
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ptmx 4
|
|
to find and use ptys named
|
|
.Pa /dev/ptyXX
|
|
(master) and
|
|
.Pa /dev/ttyXX
|
|
(slave).
|
|
Eventually this option will become optional as ptyfs based pseudo-ttys become
|
|
the default, see
|
|
.Xr mount_ptyfs 8 .
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_SVR4
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with
|
|
.At V.4
|
|
applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This currently includes the i386, m68k, and sparc ports.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_LINUX
|
|

|
|
compatibility with
|
|
.Tn SunOS 4.1
|
|
applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This currently includes the sparc, sparc64 and most or all m68k ports.
|
|
Note that the sparc64 requires the
|
|
.Em COMPAT_NETBSD32
|
|
option for 64-bit kernels, in addition to this option.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_ULTRIX
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with
|
|
.Tn ULTRIX
|
|
applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This currently is limited to the pmax.
|
|
The functionality of this option is unknown.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_DARWIN
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary compatibility with
|
|
.Tn Darwin
|
|
applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This feature is highly experimental, it requires COMPAT_MACH and

|
|
At the moment this is limited to the i386 port.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_HPUX
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with
|
|
.Tn HP/UX
|
|
applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This is limited to the hp300 port, and has some known bugs.
|
|
A limited set of programs do work.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_IBCS2
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with iBCS2 or SVR3 applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This is currently limited to the i386 and vax ports.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_IRIX
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|

|
|
This feature is experimental, and it is currently limited to
|
|
the sgimips port.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_MACH
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables the emulation of
|
|
Mach kernel traps for binaries built for the same architecture.
|
|
This features is highly experimental and it is currently
|
|
limited to i386 and powerpc ports of
|
|
.Nx .
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_OSF1
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with
|
|
.Tn Digital
|
|
.Ux
|
|
.Po
|
|
formerly
|
|
.Tn OSF/1
|
|
.Pc
|
|
applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This is currently limited to the alpha port.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_NOMID
|
|
Enable compatibility with
|
|
.Xr a.out 5
|
|
executables that lack a machine ID.
|
|
This includes
|
|
.Nx 0.8 Ns 's
|
|
ZMAGIC format, and 386BSD and BSDI's
|
|
QMAGIC, NMAGIC, and OMAGIC
|
|
.Xr a.out 5
|
|
formats.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_NETBSD32
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with 32-bit applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This is currently limited to the amd64 and sparc64 ports, and only
|
|
applicable for 64-bit kernels.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_SVR4_32
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this enables binary
|
|
compatibility with 32-bit SVR4 applications built for the same architecture.
|
|
This is currently limited to the sparc64 port, and only applicable for
|
|
64-bit kernels.
|
|
.It Cd options COMPAT_AOUT_M68K
|
|
On m68k architectures which have switched to ELF,
|
|
this enable binary compatibility with
|

.Nx Ns Tn /m68k
|
|
.Xr a.out 5
|
|
executables on
|
|
.Nx Ns Tn /m68k
|
|
ELF kernel.
|
|
This handles alignment incompatibility of m68k ABI between
|
|
a.out and ELF which causes the structure padding differences.
|
|
Currently only some system calls which use
|
|
.Va struct stat
|
|
are adjusted and some binaries which use
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
to retrieve network details would not work properly.
|
|
.It Cd options EXEC_MACHO
|
|
On those architectures that support it, this adds support for running
|
|
Mach-O executables.
|
|
This is currently limited to the i386 and powerpc ports of

|
.Nx .
|
|
.It Cd options EXEC_ELF_NOTELESS
|
|
Run unidentified ELF binaries as
|
|
.Nx
|
|
binaries.
|
|
This might be needed for very old
|
|
.Nx
|
|
ELF binaries on some archs.
|
|
These old binaries didn't contain an appropriate
|
|
.Li .note.netbsd.ident
|
|
section, and thus can't be identified by the kernel as
|
|
.Nx
|
|
binaries otherwise.
|
|
Beware - if this option is on, the kernel would run
|
|
.Em any
|
|
unknown ELF binaries as if they were
|
|
.Nx
|
|
binaries.

.It Cd options DDB_FROMCONSOLE=integer
|
|
If set to non-zero, DDB may be entered by sending a break on a serial
|
|
console or by a special key sequence on a graphics console.
|
|
A value of "0" ignores console breaks or key sequences.
|
|
If not explicitly specified, the default value is "1".
|
|
Note that this sets the value of the
|
|
.Em ddb.fromconsole
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
variable which may be changed at run time -- see
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8

|
|
If this is non-zero, enable history editing in the kernel debugger
|
|
and set the size of the history to this value.
|
|
.It Cd options DDB_ONPANIC
|
|
If set to non-zero, DDB will be entered upon kernel panic.
|
|
The default if not specified is "1".
|
|
Note that this sets the value of the
|
|
.Em ddb.onpanic
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3

.It Cd makeoptions DEBUG="-g"
|
|
The

.Fl g
|
|
flag causes
|
|
.Pa netbsd.gdb
|
|
to be built in addition to
|
|
.Pa netbsd .
|
|
.Pa netbsd.gdb
|
|
is useful for debugging kernel crash dumps with gdb.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr gdb 1
|
|
for details.
|
|
This also turns on
|
|
.Em options DEBUG
|
|
(which see).
|
|
.It Cd options DEBUG
|
|
Turns on miscellaneous kernel debugging.
|
|
Since options are turned into preprocessor defines (see above),
|
|
.Em options DEBUG
|
|
is equivalent to doing a
|
|
.Em #define DEBUG
|
|
throughout the kernel.
|
|
Much of the kernel has
|
|
.Em #ifdef DEBUG
|
|
conditionalized debugging code.
|
|
Note that many parts of the kernel (typically device drivers) include their own
|
|
.Em #ifdef XXX_DEBUG
|
|
conditionals instead.
|
|
This option also turns on certain other options,
|
|
which may decrease system performance.
|
|
.It Cd options DIAGNOSTIC
|
|
Adds code to the kernel that does internal consistency checks.
|
|
This code will cause the kernel to panic if corruption of internal data
|
|
structures is detected.
|
|
These checks can decrease performance up to 15%.
|
|
.It Cd options KSTACK_CHECK_MAGIC
|
|
Check kernel stack usage and panic if stack overflow is detected.
|
|
This check is performance sensitive because it scans stack on each context
|
|
switch.
|
|
.It Cd options KTRACE
|
|
Add hooks for the system call tracing facility, which allows users to
|
|
watch the system call invocation behavior of processes.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr ktrace 1
|
|
for details.
|
|
.It Cd options MSGBUFSIZE=integer
|
|
This option sets the size of the kernel message buffer.
|
|
This buffer holds the kernel output of
|
|
.Fn printf
|
|
when not (yet) read by
|
|
.Xr syslogd 8 .
|
|
This is particularly useful when the system has crashed and you wish to lookup
|
|
the kernel output from just before the crash.
|
|
Also, since the autoconfig output becomes more and more verbose,
|
|
it sometimes happens that the message buffer overflows before
|
|
.Xr syslogd 8
|
|
was able to read it.
|
|
Note that not all systems are capable of obtaining a variable sized message
|
|
buffer.
|
|
There are also some systems on which memory contents are not preserved
|
|
across reboots.
|
|
.It Cd options MALLOCLOG
|
|
Enables an event log for
|
|
.Xr malloc 9 .
|
|
Useful for tracking down
|
|
.Dq Data modified on freelist
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq multiple free
|
|
problems.
|
|
.It Cd options MALLOCLOGSIZE=integer
|
|
Defines the number of entries in the malloc log.
|
|
Default is 100000 entries.
|
|
.It Cd options SYSTRACE
|
|
Add hooks for the system call policy facility.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr systrace 1
|
|
for details.
|
|
.It Cd options UVMHIST
|
|
Enables the UVM history logs, which create in-memory traces of
|
|
various UVM activities.
|
|
These logs can be displayed be calling
|
|
.Fn uvmhist_dump
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn uvm_hist
|
|
with appropriate arguments from DDB.
|
|
See the kernel source file sys/uvm/uvm_stat.c for details.
|
|
.It Cd options UVMHIST_PRINT
|
|
Prints the UVM history logs on the system console as entries are added.
|
|
Note that the output is
|
|
.Em extremely
|
|
voluminous, so this option is really only useful for debugging
|
|
the very earliest parts of kernel initialization.

|
|
Include the Memory File System
|

.Em ( MFS ) .
|
|
This file system stores files in swappable memory, and produces

is kernel based, several user level daemons are needed for it to work.
|
|
See

for details.
|
|
.It Cd file-system FDESC
|
|
Includes code for a file system, conventionally mounted on
|
|
.Pa /dev/fd ,
|
|
which permits access to the per-process file descriptor space via
|
|
special files in the file system.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr mount_fdesc 8
|
|
for details.
|
|
Note that this facility is redundant, and thus unneeded on most
|
|
.Nx
|
|
systems, since the
|
|
.Xr fd 4
|
|
pseudo-device driver already provides identical functionality.
|
|
On most
|
|
.Nx
|
|
systems, instances of
|
|
.Xr fd 4
|
|
are mknoded under
|

.It Cd file-system KERNFS
|
|
Includes code which permits the mounting of a special file system
|
|
(normally mounted on

.Pa /kern )
|
|
in which files representing various kernel variables and parameters
|
|
may be found.
|

|
|
.It Cd file-system NULLFS
|
|
Includes code for a loopback file system.
|
|
This permits portions of the file hierarchy to be re-mounted in other places.
|

The code really exists to provide an example of a stackable file system layer.
|
|
See

.It Cd file-system OVERLAY
|
|
Includes code for a file system filter.
|
|
This permits the overlay file system to intercept all access to an underlying
|
|
file system.
|
|
This file system is intended to serve as an example of a stacking file
|
|
system which has a need to interpose itself between an underlying file
|
|
system and all other access.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr mount_overlay 8

|
|
.It Cd file-system PORTAL
|

.Em [EXPERIMENTAL]
|
|
Includes the portal file system.
|
|
This permits interesting tricks like opening
|
|
.Tn TCP
|
|
sockets by opening files in the file system.
|
|
The portal file system is conventionally mounted on
|
|
.Pa /p
|

and is partially implemented by a special daemon.
|
|
See

.It Cd file-system PROCFS
|
|
Includes code for a special file system (conventionally mounted on
|
|
.Pa /proc )
|
|
in which the process space becomes visible in the file system.
|
|
Among
|
|
other things, the memory spaces of processes running on the system are
|
|
visible as files, and signals may be sent to processes by writing to
|
|
.Pa ctl
|
|
files in the procfs namespace.

|
different UIDs and GIDs than the local system.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr mount_umap 8
|

|
|
.It Cd file-system UNION
|
|
.Em [EXPERIMENTAL]
|
|
Includes code for the union file system, which permits directories to
|
|
be mounted on top of each other in such a way that both file systems
|
|
remain visible -- this permits tricks like allowing writing (and the
|
|
deleting of files) on a read-only file system like a
|
|
.Tn CD-ROM
|
|
by mounting a local writable file system on top of the read-only file system.

|
|
.It Cd file-system CODA
|
|
.Em [EXPERIMENTAL]
|
|
Includes code for the Coda file system.
|
|
Coda is a distributed file system like NFS and AFS.
|
|
It is freely available, like NFS, but it functions much like AFS in being a
|
|
.Dq stateful
|
|
file system.
|
|
Both Coda and AFS cache files on your local machine to improve performance.
|
|
Then Coda goes a step further than AFS by letting you access the cached
|
|
files when there is no available network, viz. disconnected laptops and
|
|
network outages.
|
|
In Coda, both the client and server are outside the kernel which makes
|
|
them easier to experiment with.
|
|
Coda is available for several UNIX and non-UNIX platforms.
|
|
See http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu for more details.
|
|
NOTE: You also need to enable the pseudo-device, vcoda, for the Coda
|
|
file system to work.

|
|
(Network File System) remote file sharing protocol.
|
|
Although the bulk of the code implementing
|
|
.Em NFS
|
|
is kernel based, several user level daemons are needed for it to
|
|
work.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr mountd 8
|

.Xr quotaon 8 ,
|
|
.Xr edquota 8 ,
|

file systems, although
|
|
.Xr rpc.rquotad 8
|
|
permits them to be accessed over
|
|
.Em NFS .
|
|
.It Cd options FFS_EI
|
|
Enable ``Endian-Independent'' FFS support.
|
|
This allows a system to mount an FFS file system created for another
|
|
architecture, at a small performance cost for all FFS file systems.
|
|
See also
|
|
.Xr newfs 8 ,
|
|
.Xr fsck_ffs 8 ,
|
|
.Xr dumpfs 8

|
|
.It Cd options NVNODE=integer
|
|
This option sets the size of the cache used by the name-to-inode translation
|
|
routines, (a.k.a. the
|
|
.Fn namei
|
|
cache, though called by many other names in the kernel source).
|
|
By default, this cache has
|
|
.Dv NPROC
|
|
(set as 20 + 16 * MAXUSERS) * (80 + NPROC / 8) entries.
|
|
A reasonable way to derive a value of
|
|
.Dv NVNODE ,
|
|
should you notice a large number of namei cache misses with a tool such as
|
|
.Xr systat 1 ,
|
|
is to examine your system's current computed value with
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8 ,
|
|
(which calls this parameter "kern.maxvnodes") and to increase this value
|
|
until either the namei cache hit rate improves or it is determined that
|
|
your system does not benefit substantially from an increase in the size of
|
|
the namei cache.
|
|
.It Cd options NAMECACHE_ENTER_REVERSE
|
|
Causes the namei cache to always enter a reverse mapping (vnode -\*[Gt] name)
|
|
as well as a normal one.
|
|
Normally, this is already done for directory vnodes, to speed up the getcwd
|
|
operation.
|
|
This option will cause longer hash chains in the reverse cache, and thus
|
|
slow down getcwd somewhat.
|
|
However, it does make vnode -\*[Gt] path translations possible in some cases.
|
|
For now, only useful if strict /proc/#/maps emulation for Linux binaries is
|
|
required.
|
|
.It Cd options EXT2FS_SYSTEM_FLAGS
|
|
This option changes the behavior of the APPEND and IMMUTABLE flags
|
|
for a file on an
|
|
.Em EXT2FS
|
|
file system.
|
|
Without this option, the superuser or owner of the file can
|
|
set and clear them.
|
|
With this option, only the superuser can set them, and
|
|
they can't be cleared if the securelevel is greater than 0.

information if NFS is used to mount the root file system.
|
|
See

.It Cd options NFS_BOOT_BOOTPARAM
|
|
Enable use of the BOOTPARAM protocol, consisting of RARP and

BOOTPARAM RPC, to get configuration information if NFS
|
|
is used to mount the root file system.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr diskless 8
|
|

|
|
.It Cd options NFS_BOOT_RWSIZE=value
|
|
Set the initial NFS read and write sizes for diskless-boot requests.
|
|
The normal default is 8Kbytes.
|
|
This option provides a way to lower the value (e.g., to 1024 bytes)
|
|
as a workaround for buggy network interface cards or boot PROMs.
|
|
Once booted, the read and write request sizes can be increased by
|
|
remounting the file system.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr mount_nfs 8
|
|
for details.
|
|
.It Cd options NFS_V2_ONLY
|
|
Reduce the size of the NFS client code by omitting code that's only required
|
|
for NFSv3 and NQNFS support, leaving only that code required to use NFSv2
|
|
servers.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss Miscellaneous Options
|
|
.Bl -ohang
|
|
.It Cd options NEW_BUFQ_STRATEGY
|
|
Enable experimental buffer queue strategy for disk I/O.
|
|
In the default strategy, outstanding disk requests are ordered by
|
|
sector number and sent to the disk, regardless of whether the
|
|
operation is a read or write; this option gives priority to issuing
|
|
read requests over write requests.
|
|
Although requests may therefore be issued out of sector-order, causing
|
|
more seeks and thus lower overall throughput, interactive system
|
|
responsiveness under heavy disk I/O load may be improved, as processes
|
|
blocking on disk reads are serviced sooner (file writes typically
|
|
don't cause applications to block).
|
|
The performance effect varies greatly depending on the hardware, drive
|
|
firmware, filesystem configuration, workload, and desired performance
|
|
trade-off.
|
|
Systems using drive write-cache (most modern IDE disks, by default)
|
|
are unlikely to benefit and may well suffer; such disks acknowledge
|
|
writes very quickly, and optimise them internally according to
|
|
physical layout.
|
|
Giving these disks as many requests to work with as possible (the
|
|
standard strategy) will typically produce the best results, especially
|
|
if the drive has a large cache; the drive will silently complete
|
|
writes from cache as it seeks for reads.
|
|
Disks that support a large number of concurrent tagged requests (SCSI
|
|
disks and many hardware RAID controllers) expose this internal
|
|
scheduling with tagged responses, and don't block for reads; such
|
|
disks may not see a noticable difference with either strategy.
|
|
However, if IDE disks are run with write-cache disabled for safety,
|
|
writes are not acknowledged until actually completed, and only one
|
|
request can be outstanding; a large number of small writes in one
|
|
locality can keep the disk busy, starving reads elsewhere on the disk.
|
|
Such systems are likely to see the most benefit from this option.
|
|
Finally, the performance interaction of this option with ffs soft
|
|
dependencies can be subtle, as that mechanism can drastically alter
|
|
the workload for filesystem metadata writes.
|
|
.It Cd options LKM
|
|
Enable loadable kernel modules.
|
|
See

|
|
.Em NOTE :
|
|
not available on all architectures.
|
|
.It Cd options INSECURE
|
|
Hardwires the kernel security level at -1.
|
|
This means that the system
|
|
always runs in secure level 0 mode, even when running multiuser.
|
|
See the manual page for
|
|
.Xr init 8
|
|
for details on the implications of this.
|
|
The kernel secure level may manipulated by the superuser by altering the
|
|
.Em kern.securelevel
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
variable (the secure level may only be lowered by a call from process ID 1,

On ports that support it, set the system clock frequency (see
|
|
.Xr hz 9 )
|

to the supplied value.
|
|
Handle with care.
|
|
.It Cd options NTP
|
|
Turns on in-kernel precision timekeeping support used by software
|
|
implementing
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
(Network Time Protocol, RFC 1305).
|
|
The
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
option adds an in-kernel Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) for normal
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
operation, and a Frequency-Locked Loop (FLL) for intermittently-connected
|
|
operation.
|
|
.Xr ntpd 8
|
|
will employ a user-level PLL when kernel support is unavailable,
|
|
but the in-kernel version has lower latency and more precision, and
|
|
so typically keeps much better time.
|
|
The interface to the kernel
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
support is provided by the
|
|
.Xr ntp_adjtime 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ntp_gettime 2
|
|
system calls, which are intended for use by
|
|
.Xr ntpd 8
|
|
and are enabled by the option.
|
|
On systems with sub-microsecond resolution timers, or where (HZ / 100000)
|
|
is not an integer, the
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
option also enables extended-precision arithmetic to keep track of
|
|
fractional clock ticks at NTP time-format precision.
|
|
.It Cd options PPS_SYNC
|
|
This option enables a kernel serial line discipline for receiving time
|
|
phase signals from an external reference clock such as a radio clock.
|
|
(The
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
option (which see) must be on if the
|
|
.Em PPS_SYNC
|
|
option is used.)
|
|
Some reference clocks generate a Pulse Per Second (PPS) signal in
|
|
phase with their time source.
|
|
The
|
|
.Em PPS
|
|
line discipline receives this signal on either the data leads
|
|
or the DCD control lead of a serial port.
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
uses the PPS signal to discipline the local clock oscillator to a high
|
|
degree of precision (typically less than 50 microseconds in time and
|
|
0.1 ppm in accuracy).
|
|
.Em PPS
|
|
can also generate a serial output pulse when the system receives a PPS
|
|
interrupt.
|
|
This can be used to measure the system interrupt latency and thus calibrate
|
|
.Em NTP
|
|
to account for it.
|
|
Using
|
|
.Em PPS
|
|
usually requires a
|
|
gadget box
|
|
to convert from TTL to RS-232 signal levels.
|
|
The gadget box and PPS are described in more detail in the HTML documentation
|
|
for
|
|
.Xr ntpd 8
|
|
in
|
|
.Pa /usr/share/doc/html/ntp .
|
|
.It Cd options NO_TSC_TIME
|
|
Don't use TSC microtime, even if available (i386 only).
|
|
Improves time behavior under VMware.
|
|
.It Cd options SETUIDSCRIPTS
|
|
Allows scripts with the setuid bit set to execute as the effective
|
|
user rather than the real user, just like binary executables.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Em NOTE :
|
|
Using this option will also enable
|
|
.Em options FDSCRIPTS
|
|
.It Cd options FDSCRIPTS
|
|
Allows execution of scripts with the execute bit set, but not the
|
|
read bit, by opening the file and passing the file descriptor to
|
|
the shell, rather than the filename.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Em NOTE :
|
|
Execute only (non-readable) scripts will have
|
|
.Va argv[0]
|
|
set to
|
|
.Pa /dev/fd/* .
|
|
What this option allows as far as security is
|
|
concerned, is the ability to safely ensure that the correct script
|
|
is run by the interpreter, as it is passed as an already open file.
|
|
.It Cd options PUCCN
|
|
Enables treating serial ports found on PCI boards
|
|
.Xr puc 4
|
|
as potential console devices.
|
|
The method for choosing such a console device is port dependent.
|
|
.It Cd options RTC_OFFSET=integer
|
|
The kernel (and typically the hardware battery backed-up clock on
|
|
those machines that have one) keeps time in
|
|
.Em UTC
|
|
(Universal Coordinated Time, once known as
|
|
.Em GMT ,
|
|
or Greenwich Mean Time)
|
|
and not in the time of the local time zone.
|
|
The
|
|
.Em RTC_OFFSET
|
|
option is used on some ports (such as the i386) to tell the kernel
|
|
that the hardware clock is offset from
|
|
.Em UTC
|
|
by the specified number of minutes.
|
|
This is typically used when a machine boots several operating
|
|
systems and one of them wants the hardware clock to run in the
|
|
local time zone and not in
|
|
.Em UTC ,
|
|
e.g.
|
|
.Em RTC_OFFSET=300
|
|
means
|
|
the hardware clock is set to US Eastern Time (300 minutes behind
|
|
.Em UTC ) ,
|
|
and not
|
|
.Em UTC .
|
|
(Note:
|
|
.Em RTC_OFFSET
|
|
is used to initialize a kernel variable named
|
|
.Va rtc_offset
|
|
which is the source actually used to determine the clock offset, and
|
|
which may be accessed via the kern.rtc_offset sysctl variable.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
for details.
|
|
Since the kernel clock is initialized from the hardware clock very
|
|
early in the boot process, it is not possible to meaningfully change
|
|
.Va rtc_offset
|
|
in system initialization scripts.
|
|
Changing this value currently may only be done at kernel compile
|
|
time or by patching the kernel and rebooting).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Em NOTE :
|
|
Unfortunately, in many cases where the hardware clock
|
|
is kept in local time, it is adjusted for Daylight Savings
|
|
Time; this means that attempting to use
|
|
.Em RTC_OFFSET
|
|
to let
|
|
.Nx
|
|
coexist with such an operating system, like Windows,
|
|
would necessitate changing
|
|
.Em RTC_OFFSET
|
|
twice a year.
|
|
As such, this solution is imperfect.
|
|
.It Cd options KMEMSTATS
|
|
The kernel memory allocator,
|
|
.Xr malloc 9 ,
|
|
will keep statistics on its performance if this option is enabled.
|
|
Unfortunately, this option therefore essentially disables the
|
|
.Fn MALLOC
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn FREE
|
|
forms of the memory allocator, which are used to enhance the performance
|
|
of certain critical sections of code in the kernel.
|
|
This option therefore can lead to a significant decrease in the
|
|
performance of certain code in the kernel if enabled.
|
|
Examples of such code include the
|
|
.Fn namei
|
|
routine, the
|
|
.Xr ccd 4
|
|
driver,
|
|
the
|
|
.Xr ncr 4
|
|
driver,
|
|
and much of the networking code.
|
|
.It Cd options MAXUPRC=integer
|
|
Sets the soft
|
|
.Dv RLIMIT_NPROC
|
|
resource limit, which specifies the maximum number of simultaneous
|
|
processes a user is permitted to run, for process 0;
|
|
this value is inherited by its child processes.
|
|
It defaults to
|
|
.Em CHILD_MAX ,
|
|
which is currently defined to be 160.
|
|
Setting
|
|
.Em MAXUPRC
|
|
to a value less than
|
|
.Em CHILD_MAX
|
|
is not permitted, as this would result in a violation of the semantics of
|
|
.St -p1003.1-90 .
|
|
.It Cd options NOFILE=integer
|
|
Sets the soft
|
|
.Dv RLIMIT_NOFILE
|
|
resource limit, which specifies the maximum number of open
|
|
file descriptors for each process;
|
|
this value is inherited by its child processes.
|
|
It defaults to
|
|
.Em OPEN_MAX ,
|
|
which is currently defined to be 64.
|
|
.It Cd options DEFCORENAME=string
|
|
Sets the default value of the

|
|
.It Cd options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE
|
|
Embeds the kernel config file used to define the kernel in the kernel
|
|
binary itself.
|
|
The embedded data also includes any files directly included by the config
|
|
file itself, e.g.
|
|
.Pa GENERIC.local
|
|
or
|
|
.Pa std.$MACHINE .
|
|
The embedded config file can be extracted from the resulting kernel by
|
|
the following command:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
strings netbsd | sed -n 's/^_CFG_//p' | unvis
|
|
.Ed

|
not any included files.
|
|
.It Cd options PIPE_SOCKETPAIR
|
|
Use slower, but smaller socketpair(2)-based pipe implementation instead

.It Cd options GATEWAY
|
|
Enables

.Em IPFORWARDING
|
|
(which see)
|
|
and (on most ports) increases the size of
|
|
.Em NMBCLUSTERS
|
|
(which see).
|
|
In general,
|
|
.Em GATEWAY
|
|
is used to indicate that a system should act as a router, and
|
|
.Em IPFORWARDING
|
|
is not invoked directly.
|
|
(Note that
|
|
.Em GATEWAY
|
|
has no impact on protocols other than
|
|
.Tn IP ,
|
|
such as
|
|
.Tn CLNP
|
|
or
|
|
.Tn XNS ) .
|
|
.Em GATEWAY
|
|
option also compiles IPv4 fast forwarding code into the kernel.
|
|
.It Cd options IPFORWARDING=value
|
|
If
|
|
.Em value
|
|
is 1 this enables IP routing behavior.
|
|
If
|
|
.Em value
|
|
is 0 (the default), it disables it.
|
|
The
|
|
.Em GATEWAY
|
|
option sets this to 1 automatically.
|
|
With this option enabled, the machine will forward IP datagrams destined
|
|
for other machines between its interfaces.
|
|
Note that even without this option, the kernel will
|
|
still forward some packets (such as source routed packets) -- removing
|
|
.Em GATEWAY
|
|
and
|
|
.Em IPFORWARDING
|
|
is insufficient to stop all routing through a bastion host on a
|
|
firewall -- source routing is controlled independently.
|
|
To turn off source routing, use
|
|
.Em options IPFORWSRCRT=0
|
|
(which see).
|
|
Note that IP forwarding may be turned on and off independently of the
|
|
setting of the
|
|
.Em IPFORWARDING
|
|
option through the use of the
|
|
.Em net.inet.ip.forwarding
|
|
sysctl variable.
|
|
If
|
|
.Em net.inet.ip.forwarding
|
|
is 1, IP forwarding is on.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
for details.
|
|
.It Cd options IPFORWSRCRT=value
|
|
If
|
|
.Em value
|
|
is set to zero, source routing of IP datagrams is turned off.
|
|
If
|
|
.Em value
|
|
is set to one (the default) or the option is absent, source routed IP
|
|
datagrams are forwarded by the machine.
|
|
Note that source routing of IP packets may be turned on and off
|
|
independently of the setting of the
|
|
.Em IPFORWSRCRT
|
|
option through the use of the
|
|
.Em net.inet.ip.forwsrcrt
|
|
sysctl variable.
|
|
If
|
|
.Em net.inet.ip.forwsrcrt

|
|
.\"This can be a fairly expensive operation, so you probably want to
|

.\"keep this disabled.
|
|
The option is not recommended as it degrades system stability.
|
|
.It Cd options IFQ_MAXLEN=value
|
|
Increases the allowed size of the network interface packet queues.
|
|
The default queue size is 50 packets, and you do not normally need
|
|
to increase it.
|
|
.It Cd options MROUTING

.Em INET
|
|
with this.
|
|
.It Cd options INET

Enabled ALTQ (Alternate Queueing).
|
|
For simple rate-limiting, use

|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_HFSC
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented HFSC (Hierarchical Fair Service Curve)
|
|
module.
|
|
HFSC supports both link-sharing and guaranteed real-time services.
|
|
HFSC employs a service curve based QoS model, and its unique feature
|
|
is an ability to decouple delay and bandwidth allocation.
|
|
Requires

.Em ALTQ_RED
|
|
to use the RED queueing discipline on HFSC classes, or

.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_PRIQ
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented PRIQ (Priority Queueing).
|
|
PRIQ implements a simple priority-based queueing discipline.
|
|
A higher priority class is always served first.
|
|
Requires

.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_WFQ
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented WFQ (Weighted Fair Queueing).
|
|
WFQ implements a weighted-round robin scheduler for a set of queues.
|
|
A weight can be assigned to each queue to give a different proportion
|
|
of the link capacity.
|
|
A hash function is used to map a flow to one of a set of queues.
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_FIFOQ
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented FIFO queueing.
|

FIFOQ is a simple drop-tail FIFO (First In, First Out) queueing discipline.
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_RIO
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented RIO (RED with In/Out).
|
|
The original RIO has 2 sets of RED parameters; one for in-profile
|
|
packets and the other for out-of-profile packets.
|
|
At the ingress of the network, profile meters tag packets as IN or
|
|
OUT based on contracted profiles for customers.
|
|
Inside the network, IN packets receive preferential treatment by
|
|
the RIO dropper.
|
|
ALTQ/RIO has 3 drop precedence levels defined for the Assured Forwarding
|
|
PHB of DiffServ (RFC 2597).
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_BLUE
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented Blue buffer management.
|
|
Blue is another active buffer management mechanism.
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_FLOWVALVE
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented Flowvalve.
|
|
Flowvalve is a simple implementation of a RED penalty box that identifies
|
|
and punishes misbehaving flows.
|
|
This option requires
|
|
.Em ALTQ_RED
|
|
and assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_CDNR
|
|
Include support for ALTQ-implemented CDNR (diffserv traffic conditioner)
|
|
packet marking/manipulation.
|
|
Traffic conditioners are components to meter, mark, or drop incoming
|
|
packets according to some rules.
|
|
As opposed to queueing disciplines, traffic conditioners handle incoming
|
|
packets at an input interface.
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_NOPCC
|
|
Disables use of processor cycle counter to measure time in ALTQ.
|
|
This option should be defined for a non-Pentium i386 CPU which does not
|
|
have TSC, SMP (per-CPU counters are not in sync), or power management
|
|
which affects processor cycle counter.
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_IPSEC
|
|
Include support for IPsec in IPv4 ALTQ.
|
|
This option assumes
|

.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_JOBS
|
|
Undocumented at this time.
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_AFMAP
|

Include support for an undocumented ALTQ feature that is used to map an IP
|
|
flow to an ATM VC (Virtual Circuit).
|
|
This option assumes
|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options ALTQ_LOCALQ
|

|
|
.Em ALTQ .
|
|
.It Cd options SUBNETSARELOCAL
|
|
Sets default value for net.inet.ip.subnetsarelocal variable, which
|
|
controls whether non-directly-connected subnets of connected networks
|
|
are considered "local" for purposes of choosing the MSS for a TCP
|
|
connection.
|
|
This is mostly present for historic reasons and completely irrelevant if
|
|
you enable Path MTU discovery.
|
|
.It Cd options HOSTZEROBROADCAST
|
|
Sets default value for net.inet.ip.hostzerobroadcast variable, which
|
|
controls whether the zeroth host address of each connected subnet is
|
|
also considered a broadcast address.
|
|
Default value is "1", for compatibility with old systems; if this is
|
|
set to zero on all hosts on a subnet, you should be able to fit an extra
|
|
host per subnet on the
|
|
".0" address.

.It Cd options MCLSHIFT=value
|
|
This option is the base-2 logarithm of the size of mbuf clusters.
|
|
The
|
|
.Bx
|
|
networking stack keeps network packets in a linked
|
|
list, or chain, of kernel buffer objects called mbufs.
|
|
The system provides larger mbuf clusters as an optimization for
|
|
large packets, instead of using long chains for large packets.
|
|
The mbuf cluster size,
|
|
or
|
|
.Em MCLBYTES ,
|
|
must be a power of two, and is computed as two raised to the power
|
|
.Em MCLSHIFT .
|
|
On systems with Ethernet network adaptors,
|
|
.Em MCLSHIFT
|
|
is often set to 11, giving 2048-byte mbuf clusters, large enough to
|
|
hold a 1500-byte
|
|
.Tn Ethernet
|
|
frame in a single cluster.
|
|
Systems with network interfaces supporting larger frame sizes like
|
|
.Tn ATM ,
|
|
.Tn FDDI ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Tn HIPPI
|
|
may perform better with
|
|
.Em MCLSHIFT

set to 12 or 13, giving mbuf cluster sizes of 4096 and 8192 bytes,
|
|
respectively.

.Dq privileged
|
|
.Tn TCP
|
|

|
|
This option eliminates those checks from the kernel.
|
|
This can be useful if there is a desire to allow daemons without
|
|
privileges to bind those ports, e.g., on firewalls.
|
|
The security tradeoffs in doing this are subtle.
|
|
This option should only be used by experts.
|

|
|
In

.Bx 4.2 ,
|
|
.Tn TCP
|
|
sequence numbers were 32-bit signed values.
|
|
Modern implementations of TCP use unsigned values.
|
|
This option clamps the initial sequence number to start in
|
|
the range 2^31 rather than the full unsigned range of 2^32.
|
|
Also, under

|
as well.
|
|
.It Cd options TCP_INIT_WIN=value
|
|
This option sets the initial TCP window size for non-local connections,
|
|
which is used when the transmission starts.
|
|
The default size is 1, but if the machine should act more aggressively,
|
|
the initial size can be set to some other value.
|
|
The initial TCP window size can be set via

|
|
This option sets the default policy of ip-filter.
|
|
If it is set, ip-filter will block packets by default.
|
|
.It Cd options BRIDGE_IPF
|
|
This option causes
|
|
.Em bridge
|
|
devices to use the IP and/or IPv6 filtering hooks, forming
|

a link-layer filter that uses protocol-layer rules.
|
|
This option assumes the presence of

|
.Em pseudo-device ipfilter .
|
|
.It Cd options MBUFTRACE
|
|
This option can help track down mbuf leaks.
|
|
When enabled, mbufs are tagged with the devices and protocols using them,

Mbuf clusters are MCLBYTES in size (usually 2k).
|
|
This is used to compute the size of the kernel VM map
|
|
.Em mb_map ,
|
|
which maps mbuf clusters.
|
|
Default on most ports is 1024 (2048 with

in PAGE_SIZE-sized chunks (the VM page size; this value may be read
|
|
from the
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable
|
|
.Em hw.pagesize
|
|
).
|
|
This VM map is used to map the kernel malloc arena.
|
|
The kernel attempts to auto-size this map based on the amount of
|
|
physical memory in the system.
|
|
Platform-specific code may place bounds on this computed size,
|
|
which may be viewed with the
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable
|
|
.Em vm.nkmempages .
|
|
See
|
|
.Pa /usr/include/machine/param.h

|
|
The related options
|
|
.Sq NKMEMPAGES_MIN
|
|
and
|
|
.Sq NKMEMPAGES_MAX
|
|
allow the bounds to be overridden in the kernel configuration file.
|

.Dq out of space in kmem_map
|
|
panic.
|
|
.It Cd options SB_MAX=value
|
|
Sets the max size in bytes that a socket buffer is allowed to occupy.
|
|
The default is 256k, but sometimes it needs to be increased, for example
|
|
when using large TCP windows.
|
|
This option can be changed via
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
as well.
|
|
.It Cd options SOMAXKVA=value
|
|
Sets the maximum size of kernel virtual memory that the socket buffers
|
|
are allowed to use.
|
|
The default is 16MB, but in situations where for example large TCP
|
|
windows are used this value must also be increased.
|
|
This option can be changed via

Size of the buffer cache as a percentage of total available
|
|
.Tn RAM .
|
|
Ignored if BUFPAGES is also specified.
|
|
.It Cd options NBUF=value
|
|
Sets the number of buffer headers available, i.e., the number of
|
|
open files that may have a buffer cache entry.
|
|
Each buffer header
|
|
requires MAXBSIZE (machine dependent, but usually 65536) bytes.
|
|
The default value is machine dependent, but is usually equal to the
|
|
value of BUFPAGES.
|
|
If an architecture dependent VM_MAX_KERNEL_BUF constant is defined
|
|
then NBUF may be reduced at run time so that the storage allocated
|
|
for buffer headers doesn't exceed that limit.
|
|
.It Cd options BUFPAGES=value
|
|
These options set the number of pages available for the buffer cache.
|

Their default value is a machine dependent value, often calculated as
|
|
between 5% and 10% of total available
|
|
.Tn RAM .

it panics, though dumps can still be forced via
|
|
.Xr ddb 4
|
|
with the

.Dq upwards from MAXDSIZ \+ vm_daddr
|
|
method.
|
|
This includes the placement of

|
.Xr ld.so 1 .
|
|
Arranging memory in this manner allows either (or both of) the heap or

|
|
(Note that some
|
|
.Tn BIOS Ns es
|
|
put the extended
|
|
.Tn BIOS
|
|
data area at the top of base memory, and therefore report a smaller
|
|
base memory size to prevent programs overwriting it.
|
|
This is correct behavior, and you should not use the
