26 includes various WITNESS- related kernel options, INVARIANTS, malloc
27 debugging flags in userland, and various verbose features in the
28 kernel. Many developers choose to disable these features on build
29 machines to maximize performance. (To completely disable malloc
30 debugging, define MALLOC_PRODUCTION in /etc/make.conf, or to merely
31 disable the most expensive debugging functionality run
32 "ln -s 'abort:false,junk:false' /etc/malloc.conf".)

35 The AIO subsystem is now a standard part of the kernel. The
36 VFS_AIO kernel option and aio.ko kernel module have been removed.
37 Due to stability concerns, asynchronous I/O requests are only
38 permitted on sockets and raw disks by default. To enable
39 asynchronous I/O requests on all file types, set the
40 vfs.aio.enable_unsafe sysctl to a non-zero value.

35 The ELF object manipulation tool objcopy is now provided by the
36 ELF Tool Chain project rather than by GNU binutils. It should be a
37 drop-in replacement, with the addition of arm64 support. The
38 (temporary) src.conf knob WITHOUT_ELFCOPY_AS_OBJCOPY knob may be set
39 to obtain the GNU version if necessary.
