(In reply to John Hood from comment #13)
Just to clarify for people, while developers try to not adjust the KBI with=
in a
major release, it has never been a commitment.

The bottom line is that all kernel modules from ports should be re-built ev=
ery
time the kernel is updated. For those running releases, this is for every
release as well as security patches which involve a kernel replacement whet=
her
by a re-build or freebsd-update. For those of us running stable, it is every
time the kernel is updated.

While lsof does not involve a kernel module, it does poke around in the ker=
nel
and will break far more easily with kernel changes than modules as it does =
its
poking outside the documented KBI.

If you build kernels from source, you can list ports needing updating in
/etc/src.conf like this:
PORTS_MODULES=3Demulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod sysutils/lsof

If you install packages you need to wait until a package build has been
completed after a release. This is usually two or three days, but I have se=
en
it take as long as a week.
