From src/sys/i386/conf/NOTES (in -current, was LINT): # The INVARIANT_SUPPORT option makes us compile in support for # verifying some of the internal structures. It is a prerequisite for # 'INVARIANTS', as enabling 'INVARIANTS' will make these functions be |# called. The intent is that you can set 'INVARIANTS' for single |# source files (by changing the source file or specifying it on the |# command line) if you have 'INVARIANT_SUPPORT' enabled. From my reading of this, it is more likely that problems will occur when mixing kernel/modules with differing options "INVARIANT_SUPPORT" than "INVARIANTS". Of course, this may well be what you meant. :) -- || David Nugent || TS Manager, ISP Limited || \\ davidn@austel.net | davidn@blaze.net.au | davidn@freebsd.org // .\\ Ph: +61396422322 Fax: +61396422063 Cell: +61404867638 //.
