A teeny-weeny issue I would like to discuss, is that we make the pfil(9) hooks code default in 5.0, and remove the kernel option; this is because it creates problems when PFIL_HOOKS is not in the (e.g. GENERIC) kernel, and someone tries to load the ipfilter kernel module (ipl.ko). [1] I have discussed this with Darren, but would just like to make it public, so it can be discussed by the release engineers etc. I apologize but I do not have patches for this. Cheers. -- Hiten Pandya (hiten@unixdaemons.com, hiten@uk.FreeBSD.org) http://www.unixdaemons.com/~hiten/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
