Modified files:
sys/kern kern_sysctl.c
sys/sys sysctl.h
Log:
Introduce a new sysctl flag, CTLFLAG_SKIP, which will cause
sysctl_sysctl_next() to skip this sysctl. The sysctl is
still available, but doesn't appear in a "sysctl -a".
This is especially useful when you want to deprecate a sysctl,
and add a warning into it to warn users that they are using
an old interface. Without this flag, the warning would get
echoed when running "sysctl -a" (which happens at boot).
