FreeBSD 8.x has been EOL since 2015-08-01. However, sysconf() ends up using sem(4) even for new code. Maybe someone from threads@ knows more. $ getconf SEM_NSEMS_MAX undefined $ kldload sem $ getconf SEM_NSEMS_MAX 30 > Further, the sem(4) manpage has no deprecation note... _______________________________________________ freebsd-gecko@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-gecko To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-gecko-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
