Give me some advise for non-reboot change to do this? I found 'options MAXDSIZ' in LINT that helps me at that moment but as I so at kern/subr_param.c there is : TUNABLE_QUAD_FETCH("kern.maxdsiz", &maxdsiz); but sysctl gives to me no 'kern.maxdsiz' resource. Is there a problem to put this parameter into sysctl (writable) or there are more changes to do to avoid crashes if they appears when change is made?
