First, I think they should be a process-wide property, so we need to move them out of td_md.md_flags and into a p_md.md_flags or p_md.md_uac or some such. Secondly, why do the sysarch() syscalls get and set the uac of the parent process? -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
