I personally think that all tunable should be read-only (or rw if

I'm still not sure why we have both mechanisms. Perhaps a useful approach would be to sweep the tree for tunables and change them to sysctls with appropriate permissions (read-only if in doubt). Then remove the tunable mechanism. Care to put together a patch?

Cause you can't set sysctl's from the loader, only tunables? Are you going to duplicate the entire kernel environment from 'kenv' in sysctl?


Ah, I thought the two had been merged such that you could do that.

You can set sysctls from loder.conf. I just checked it to be shure.
