All of the kernel dump implementations keep track of the current offset ("dumplo") within the dump device. However, except for textdumps, they all write the dump sequentially, so we can reduce code duplication by having the MI code keep track of the current offset. The new dump_append() API can be used to write at the current offset. This is needed to implement support for kernel dump compression in the MI kernel dump code. Also simplify dump_encrypted_write() somewhat: use dump_write() instead of duplicating its bounds checks, and get rid of the redundant offset tracking.

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.
