Strictly speaking, version bumps don't force anything to recompile, they just ensure that newer modules won't load on older kernels. In this case, the change to sys/ucred.h will result in sys/ucred.h's mtime changing so that any kernel modules being built via NO_CLEAN=yes will rebuild ok. I'm not quite sure where this mantra that version bumps force rebuilds came from, but they don't. It's true that since it lives in <sys/param.h> and most things include that, it mostly forces a rebuild, but that's mostly a side effect, not due to explicit magic around __FreeBSD_version. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
