kreg

kreg(8) 						      System Manager's Manual							   kreg(8)

NAME

       kreg - Maintains the system file that registers kernel layered products

SYNOPSIS

       /sbin/kreg -d subset [-c NAME] | -l vendor subset path [-c NAME]

OPTIONS

       Causes  the  specified  layered	product  to  be  loaded  or  deleted  from  the  NAME.list  file  for  the  given  name in addition to the
       /usr/sys/conf/.product.list file.  Note that the NAME parameter is case sensitive and must exactly match the NAME prefix  for  the  desired
       NAME.list  file.  Deletes the entry for the specified layered product when you remove it from the system.  Loads the data that controls how
       to include the layered product in the kernel build process.

DESCRIPTION

       The kreg command maintains the /usr/sys/conf/.product.list system file, which registers static kernel layered products.	The  kreg  command
       creates the file if it does not exist.  The file enables system utilities or user supplied commands to locate the kernel parts of a layered
       product, and it provides information about layered products.

       The kernel tools use the /usr/sys/conf/.product.list file to build a layered product into the kernel.  You can use the file to  register  a
       static  kernel  layered	product that has been loaded into the system.  The file also can be used by the layered product's Software Control
       Program (SCP), which is called by the setld command.

       You copy the /usr/sys/conf/.product.list file into the file that is used to extend the kernel configuration files and that has the  follow-
       ing syntax: /usr/sys/conf/NAME.list

       The  NAME  variable  specifies  the  system  name  that	also  is  used	in  the  system  configuration file that has the following syntax:
       /usr/sys/conf/NAME

       The doconfig command also will copy the /usr/sys/conf/.product.list file.

       You can use the -c option to load or delete your layered product into a specific NAME.list file as well as the file.  This is useful if you
       want to load your layered product into a specific NAME.list file without requiring the user to either copy the entire file to the NAME.list
       file or to manually edit the NAME.list file.

       The kreg command must be invoked from the root (/) directory.  The command can be used only for subsets that are loaded by using the  setld
       command.  Also, you must be superuser to use the kreg command.

FILES

       Contains kernel layered product information.  Used to extend the kernel configuration files.
