Kernel mode programming

[Xin LI]

Of course it's possible to take everything into kernel, but that might
not a good idea since you can also easily crash the whole system and
pose serious security issues because kernel trust everything that is
considered to be a part of it.

FreeBSD has provided many interfaces that may help out your problem.
You may want to take a look at kqueue(2), sendfile(2), accept_filter(9),
etc., and consider switching your application model from one to another.
Another thing you may have interest is the ktrace/kdump mechanism, as
well as ktr that can reveal what exactly the problem is.
Please don't hesitate to submit your patch / suggestion to PR system or
appropriate maillist if you think there is some *REAL* problem, as that
will help the development.
