Yes, but not until things settle down in a year or two. Until then, trying to impose a toolkit DDI on the kernel will only make everyone's life harder. The VFS system is almost certainly going to be shredded this year and I'm sure it is going to take a year to cleanup and refine newbus & dma handling. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
