Bjoern A. Zeeb <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] Blocks| |278175 --- Comment #1 from Bjoern A. Zeeb <[email protected]> --- I would think this is a documentation error in the man page based on iwm or OpenBSD? I strongly believe anything which we do not need to boot a system to multi-user (and you cannot netboot over wifi for us) should be auto-loaded as a module and not be part of the kernel anymore. There are two exceptions: (a) people who want a monolithic kernel and (b) people setting security sysctls that you cannot load modules anymore. Maybe we should make it possible to add it to the kernel but not advertise it and not add it to any GENERIC or NOTES? I wonder if loading firmware in that case would even work (probably would need to be pre-loaded as well again from loader)?
