Now that we have our sysctl tree annotated with aggregation labels, let's go ahead and provide a very simple utility for exporting the sysctl tree in Prometheus' format. It can either be used in conjunction with the Prometheus node exporter or run through inetd(8). The reason why I'm opting for having it in the base system is because it has a pretty strong integration with some of sysctl's innards, such as access to iterators, name lookups, metadata and type information. As I am investigating whether we can add histograms as native types to sysctl as well, this integration will only get stronger as we go along. That's why it would be safer to oversee the development of this exporter ourselves, as opposed to having it as an external project. This exporter is remarkably compact, especially when compared to the official Linux binary of the Prometheus node exporter (16 KB vs 12 MB). I guess this could be an interesting aspect for monitoring embedded FreeBSD-based systems. Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D8792 |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
