>From sys/kern/kern_environment.c: /* * The unified bootloader passes us a pointer to a preserved copy of * bootstrap/kernel environment variables. We convert them to a * dynamic array of strings later when the VM subsystem is up. * * We make these available through the kenv(2) syscall for userland * and through getenv()/freeenv() setenv() unsetenv() testenv() for * the kernel. */ The following shell command will give you lots of examples: find /usr/src/sys -name "*.c" | xargs grep -w getenv Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co.
