NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       kreg  -  Maintains  the  system file that registers kernel
       layered products

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

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

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       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    [Toc]    [Back]

       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 following 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.
