Such as? > Making it finer grained did not seem to be a good idea at the time. > For that we do have individual kernel options. Which is what I am going to have to do for my "EXPERIMENT" since I do not want this code in it. Its fine, but more or less you have now reserved EXPERIMENT for some subset, and I'll call mine something like EXPERIMENT_foo > If you are saying that I should add an extra layer of #ifdef under > EXPERIMENTAL such as #ifdef EXP_IPV6_ONLY_FLAG, adding such a kernel > option seems plausible though a pain when this either goes away entirely > or becomes mainline and in either case would not be under an extra > option. I would of just used #ifdef EXP_IPV6_ONLY_FLAG and not used EXPERIMENTAL at all. The #ifdef goes away when it is mainline. > /bz -- Rod Grimes rgri...@freebsd.org _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
