--- Comment #12 from dewayne at heuristicsystems.com.au ---
(In reply to Jamie Landeg-Jones from comment #8)
I run a lot of non-vimage jails but I can only see one use-case for this
requirement - if I don't/can't access the host system, then a monitoring jail
may acquire & provide the dmesg information for a reporting jail?  Is there
another use for this, that you have in mind and that we might benefit?

With 
/etc/sysctl.conf:security.bsd.unprivileged_read_msgbuf=0
a jail reports
# dmesg
dmesg: sysctl kern.msgbuf: Operation not permitted
