Have a look at this commit (comments and the pkg-plist): https://reviews.freebsd.org/D20990 Also here https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/blob/master/graphics/drm-current-kmod/pkg-plist There is also the following comment in an email titled "drm drivers project report (week of May 4th)" which "Emmanuel Vadot" posted to freebsd-current and freebsd-x11: > As the drm-kmod ports install the sources in the system a kernel > compilation will rebuild those modules and install them in /boot/kernel > whereas using https://github.com/freebsd/drm-kmod/ will install > everything in /boot/modules I am not sure about drm-devel-kmod but I can confirm that a binary drm-current-kmod does contain sources and installs them when the port is installed. You can see those files in the commit I posted above. GrzegorzJ
