The default configuration for the network stack has been changed
|
||||
such that it now runs without the Giant lock unless configured
|
||||
otherwise. If you experience network-related instability, you
|
||||
may wish to try setting "debug.mpsafenet=0" or compiling the
|
||||
kernel with "options NET_WITH_GIANT". Details on the netperf

project may be found at:

PFIL_HOOKS are a fixed part of the network stack now and do not
|
||||
need to be specified in the kernel configuration file anymore.
