Just a question about the man page securelevel(7) really.
It doesn't mention that for architectures where the aperture is enabled that
the aperture value can only be lowered once in securelevel 1 or higher.
Is this intentionally omitted because some architectures may not have it?
and if so, is there not some incongruity in having it mentioned in the
sysctl pages.
there's always going to be a level of incongruity because of the
differing architectures. that's unavoidable.
in this case it was just a case of being missed, i suppose (you did read
BUGS in securelevel(7), right? ;)
anyway, i've just added machdep.aperture interaction to that page.
thanks for the mail.
