Hi,
I'd like to know whether we reached some conclusions concerning the naming
of sysctl variables created (or related to) KLDs. I know that Linux
emulator creates "compat.linux". I don't know if any other module creates
sysctls (well, except my SPY module.. :-).
So, what is the current thinking? Should we use
modules.my_module.whatever, or
kld.my_kld.whatever, or
just sprinkle the new sysctls randomly over the tree, according to their
functions, e.g.
kern.my_module_kern_hook
net.inet.my_module_inet_hook
...
Also, it seems that you cannot create new sysctls (leaves and nodes) at
runtime, i.e. after the module has been loaded.
