I'm a bit confused about whcih options needs to be set where.
This changes over time. A lot of options once needed to be set in the loader.conf before the kernel started up, but the system is getting more flexible and some of those can be changed at runtime now....
I know i.e. that hw.ata.atapi_dma="1" needs to be set in /boot/loader.conf while others are set in /etc/sysctl.conf. I need to know where I can find info on the rules about this. Now I'm dependant on what I happen to read somewhere. I read something about vfs.read_max="16" -> where do I set this I wonder? Is there info about this somewhere?
Look at /boot/defaults/loader.conf, that ought to give you a good idea of what needs to be (or can be) set via that. Otherwise, try using sysctl to change things, and if they are marked read-only, then they needed to be changed earlier or by rebuilding the kernel with a different config.
