Witness on FreeBSD 10.*

[Al Plant]

Aloha,

Is there a way of turning off the witness feature on the FreeBSD Current
10.*

I want to use a stripped down version as a test firewall with pf.

Thanks for any help.

I believe the witness options are set in kernel config.

you must take this out of your kernel configuration:

options
WITNESS
# Enable checks to detect deadlocks and cycles options
WITNESS_SKIPSPIN # Don't run
witness on spinlocks for speed

Ok, the formatting is different in the configuration file.
