Hi all. I'd like someone to let me know what options I can remove from the
current kernel configuration so as to remove unnecessary features and
reduce the size of the kernel. At the moment, the config for the kernel
was derived from booting off /genvmunix, and then building the kernel.
This has introduced all available options, but unfortunately I'm not sure
as to what can stay and what can be removed. Below is a list of these
options.
options UERF
options OSF
options _LMF_
options BIN_COMPAT
options COMPAT_43
options MACH
options MACH_IPC_TCACHE
options MACH_IPC_WWA
options MACH_IPC_XXXHACK
options BUFCACHE_STATS
options INOCACHE_STATS
options STAT_TIME
options VAGUE_STATS
options UFS
options NFS
options NFS_SERVER
options MSFS
options STRKINFO
options STREAMS
options LDTTY
options RPTY
options INET
options UIPC
options SYSV_COFF
options QUOTA
options LABELS
options SL
options SNMPINFO
options DLI
options BPARM
options BSD_TTY
options DLB
options PROCFS
options FFM_FS
options NTP_TIME
options KDEBUG
options PACKETFILTER
options PCKT
options TIRDWR
options TIMOD
options XTISO
options FFM_FS
options CDFS
options DEC_AUDIT
options DEC_ACL
