CVSROOT:/cvsModule name:srcChanges by:mglocker@cvs.openbsd.org2020/12/28 11:28:11Modified files:sys/dev : video.c sys/kern : kern_sysctl.c sys/sys : sysctl.h Log message:Analog to the the kern.audio.record sysctl parameter for audio(4)devices, introduce kern.video.record for video(4) devices. By defaultkern.video.record will be set to zero, blanking all data deliveredby device drivers which attach to video(4).The idea was initially proposed byLaurence Tratt <laurie AT tratt DOT net>.ok mpi@

This is analogous to kern.audio.record,which was first seen inOpenBSD 6.4.
