Hi,

I'm using FreeBSD 9.1 and looking for a way to pass a module parameters on =
load time.
I came across the 'TUNABLE' macros which provided a decent solution.

The question that remains is how to notify the user about those configurabl=
e load-time parameters ?
I guess I'm looking for some kind of 'modinfo' which describes those parame=
ters among other things.

Thanks,
