listing all modules compiled into a kernel instance

el'! How does one query an existing kernel for *all* compiled-in modules? I'm using FreeBSD-8.1-RELEASE-amd64/i386. Carl / K0802647 ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.fre

Re: listing all modules compiled into a kernel instance

ot a driver when done implicitly? That makes no sense to me since the functionality doesn't change. IMHO, this is a bug that needs to be fixed, not just for ucom but any implicitly included driver. Who should submit a bug report? Carl / K080264

Re: listing all modules compiled into a kernel instance

nel. And ucom became a point of focus, in part, because no less than 13 different man pages specify that "device ucom" is required in the configuration file despite the fact that the GENERIC kernel has no such statement and contains ucom. Since the man pages are therefore in error, I&#

No bus_space_read_8 on x86 ?

I noticed that the bus_space_*_8 functions are unimplemented for x86. Looking at the code, it seems this is intentional. Is this done because on 32-bit systems we don't know, in the general case, whether to read the upper or lower 32-bits first? If that's the reason, I was thinking we could p

MADV_FREE and wait4 EFAULT
