I think that the goal should be to make KLDs work with all kinds of kernels. And the only place where this seems to be a problem is with zalloc and zfree. So it seems to me that one of the following could be done to solve it: a. make zalloc and zfree non-inline b. call zalloci and zfreei in code that can end up in KLDs c. call zalloci and zfreei everywhere where it's not performance-critical /assar To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
