https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D215836 --- Comment #3 from Mateusz Guzik <mjg@FreeBSD.org> --- Granted, I did not know about the limitation, but it hints at a better solu= tion here: # procstat -fa | grep klog 638 syslogd 8 v c r----n-- 1 19977 - /dev/klog Since syslog already monitors dmesg, you can just inspect the log created by syslog instead of interfacing with the device. That said, the feature itself would be nice, but busy checking for work is a non-starter and it is unlikely it is worth it to make the device openable by many threads. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
